Decent game to chill and play, understandable mechanics and good soundtrack.

No sé quien dijo que este juego era para niños, ya que la dificultad está bastante desequilibrada, aún así, no está del todo mal

Oh my god do not buy this game , its the most frustrating game you could ever play . The controls and camera angles do not respond to the gameplay ,and you end up just doing constant blind jumps ,and hoping you will land in the right spot, because camera won't turn to the direction you want to jump . The forest levels are the worst! Stick with pacman world 1or repac on the switch if you want to keep your sanity!!!!

I really don’t give Pac-man enough credit. He’s been in gaming for over 40 years, and a lot of his games get innovated to the point it’s appealing enough for newcomers, but familiar enough toward old ones. Enter Pac-man World, which properly brought Pac-man to 3D with an actual story and themed levels to playthrough. 3 years later, we get Pac-man world 2, and it’s the same kinda great shenanigans the first one brought us.While I don’t think Pac-man World 2 is something to write home about, it does feel like that perfect nebulous kids game that you’d have fond memories playing when you got bored. The worlds are wonderful colorful and simple enough to get through that progress never stresses you out. On top of that, it has a good amount of collectibles in order to help you unlock a bunch of different Pac-man games and art. The bosses all utilize the ghosts in neat and interesting ways, and the levels are always trying something new so it doesn’t become daunting. The game still maintains the neat little mazes that act as a mini Pac-man level, and the environments prove to be interesting throughout the whole game. Really, Pac-man World 2 is a point blank case of 3D platformer from the early 2000s, bad camera and all.Dollars to donuts, I would probably put up Pac-man World 1 as the better story, as 2 just involves ghosts stealing some fruit, and really that doesn’t mean much compared to actual kidnapping. Despite this, I do think Pac-Man World 2 is the better game, the bosses are more memorable and the levels can level an impression that I just didn’t get with the first one. If you enjoyed the first Pac-man World game, you’ll get a kick out of this one, and if you enjoy 3D platform collecthons, you’ll really enjoy this game.

Pac-Man World 2 is an underrated gem. The game welcomes us from the very beginning with a soundtrack you'll remember for a lifetime and vibrant colors. While the camera can be a problem in some situations but controls are responsive and gameplay is very enjoyable

My 1st PS2 game and the one that got me into console gaming, one of the best in its kind. Music, sound effects, gameplay and a funny story along with some difficult for these kind of games bosses (alright, they have checkpoints in between their phases) makes it one of my favorite and has a special place in my heart! Nostalgia.

It's a fine enough platformer that is sadly has one of the most annoying mechanics se in platformer Det annoying running ability where you have to jump over a cliff and just hope just f****** hope that it's not going to f*** you over again and again and again I cannot tell you how f****** frustrating that running move is, I want to rage quit every time it happened, The music is okay the graphics good and colorful on a technical level all the things of fine but det f****** running ability just takes all the fun out of it

Namco & Sony still make more games on PS consoles, does any one still play this game on ps2? No.

Good game! Many challenges and hours of fun. The game slumps off a bit towards the end, but its first half is really worth the buy. Great for kids and made for a younger audience. If you've got a young boy or girl i really recommend this game. Pac is back!

Pac Man World 2 is simple and effective. Fun and innovative gameplay combined with colourful worlds and well designed enemies make this game extremely fun to play.

Pac Man World 2 is a solid Platformer on the PS2. It puts you in the world of PacMan, where the "Golden Fruits" have been stolen by the main antagonist "Spooky". Now PacMan has to jump across platforms and fight all ghosts to retrieve the stolen fruits. The gameplay is what you would expect from a 3D-Platformer. One thing I have to add here is that the controls felt amazing. PacMan moves just how I want him to and whenever I lost a live I never thought it was the games fault. But sadly the game didn't keep me motivated to play through it completely. The game changes up the gameplay in a lot of stages. Some changes, like the ice skating level, are really fun. But there are also some Gameplay styles which are just tedious. Still, overall Pac Man World 2 is a solid Platformer and worth checking out. If you find this game at a local flea market or game store, then I recommend you to give it a try. Rating: Gameplay: 5/5 - Some of the greatest platforming controls I've ever witnessed Level Design: 3/5 - Standard Level Design, but well implemented. Soundtrack: 3/5 - Nothing special. Some songs repeat themselves in other levels in a remixed version. Story: 3/5 - Enough to explain why you're on your adventure Graphics: 3/5 - Forgettable environments Length: 4/5 - A tiny bit too long Replay Value: 4/5 - Collectables and challenges in every level. Enjoyment: 4/5 - An enjoyable Platformer Overall rating: 29/40 => 7/10

Not a great game, but it's a big improvement over the first one. This one has a better camera and is everything the first one should've been. Of course though, it's not without its problems. Like a lot of 3D games, the camera, while better than the first is not the best. The game is more challenging than hard, but there are those frustrating moments. This was basically an improved version of the first game in the way it plays. But there are also unlockable games, like the original Pac-Man (obviously), Ms. Pac-Man, Pac-Mania, etc. I know you can just get those through Namco Museum games, but it's still cool to have those included. This is a good game.

This is one of the best game about Pacman in my opinion . Pacman World 2 at the moments like on Assassins Creed because in this game there is parkour as in Tomb Raider, Assassins Creed, Uncharted and Prince of Persia . Graphics in Pac-man World 2 is normal for Playstation 2 and amazing for Pac-Man Game . Awesome Graphics and cool gameplay for Pac-man, but banal storyline as in Pac-Man (1980) or Mrs Pac-man (1981) . Pac-Man is awesome characters, but Sonic, Mario, Crash Bandicoot and MegaMan is better than Pacman . Pac-Man World 2 is good game .

This is a game that i always think is pac man just adventuring. The game doesn't have that strong of a story but it makes up for it in alot of ways. This is a unique game that just gets really challenging.

Pac Man in 3d puts an interesting new spin on a classic. The movement control feels rounded making precision difficult in certain situations such as attacking enemies, but it does not ruin the platforming. The platforming is very good. Pac Mans abilities are noticeably different than the average platformer character, giving this extremely simple game something new to offer. You can take or leave the story. It is not necessary or interesting. I would recommend this game for enthusiasts or those who want to see what Pac Man turned into.

The only real problem with his game is the frustrating camera this game is a total blast and any platformig fan should try it out with creative and fun levels.

Beyond the use of the Pac-man label and the occasional classic maze lies a very good and fun platformer. the only drawbacks are the repetitive boss battles and a short game.

I am a huge namco fan. When I was six years old, I got my first Pac-man game, Pac-Man World (1). Played it, loved it. Years passed, and I missed the chance to get the other three Pac-man World games, but then Pac-Man Power Pack came out, and I gave it a whirl. While none of the other Pac-Man games will live up to the original, I found Pac-Man World 2 to be enjoyable. Pac-man World 2's story is as such: The ghosts have unleashed an ancient evil ghost known as Spooky by removing 5 golden fruit from the tree where Spooky was imprisoned. Spooky tells them that he will help them destroy Pac-Land, and so Pac-man goes out to stop them. It's a Pac-man game people! It's not supposed to have a deep plot, but it works for such a light-hearted game. The first thing you'll realize is that the graphics are pretty good. Bright, colorful, pleasing to the eye, it's Pac-Man. It's good that namco didn't stray too far away from that. The stages are well designed. They are challenging, and fun to play. Take B doing woods. Whenever you bounce on a B doing pad, it IS A BLAST!!! Combin it with careful platforming, catchy music, and solid controls make playing the game worth while. This game has a lot of replay value. If you want to get 100%, you'll have to eat every Pac-Dot, fruit, complete every maze, time trail, and collect all of the namco coins. It will last you hours. But the reason for this is how difficult it is to get them all. I'm not sure if this is a gltich or not, but there is a glitch if you go back into a level to get anything you miss and collect EVERYTHING in a level, but miss 1 simple fruit, your progression for the level will stay the same. Glitch or not, this is stupid!!!! The stages are challenging enough, why do I have to do everything picture perfect or else they just forget everything?!!!! The game gets even more frustrating due to that ****'s so **** will murder your family at **** menacing camera. Ok, menecing might not be the right word, more like stubborn. It's as if the camera is a solid object. If there is an object blocking it, it WIIL NOT move, not matter how hard you try. Say you're jumping from platform to platform. You miss somthing. If you try to go back, the camer will screw up on you all the way to the pit you fall down. Sometimes, the camera just won't move. Go ahead. Try to look around. You'll most likely end up dying in a firey pit of cheap death, and then the camer will move on to it's next victim. Then there are the mazes, which are completely pointless. They're nowhere nearly as inventive as PMW1's mazes. They just rip off the first Pac-man. It's a waste of your time. Also, the difficulty boosts up later on in the game. Sure, this is normal for platformers, but this is just stupid. Compare Crash bandicoot 1's difficulty curve. It was even and balanced. PMW2's is so horrificaly hard that it took me a whole hour to finish the 2nd last level. A WHOLE HOUR! WTF! You will scream! You will feel like you want to kill yourself and you will DIE!!!! But eneough of the negatives. This game has several aracade games that you can play. The original Pac-Man, Pac-Mania, Pac-Attack, Ms. Pac-man. They all work and are fun. However, you don't get any options to these games, and to unlock them, you need to get so mant of those freaking namco coins which are so hard to GET! UGGHH! Bosses work, but not alaways. WHY? THE DIFFICULY!!! THE CAMERA!!!! THE IRRITATING WAYS TO HIT THE BOSS!!! THE INSANE AMOUNT OF ENEMIES COMING AT YOU!!!! The earlier bosses do have some fun to them. They have a REASONABLE difficulty, and they're fun. But after the snowy mountain **** CAN'T I JUST HIT YOU WITHOUT BEING THROWN OF THE MAP BY YOUR FIRBALL? UGHHHH! When the game is not blisteringly difficult, the game is at its finest. Careful Platforming, solid controls, fun collecting, when it works, its like playing the original Pac-man back in 1980. However, it doesn't always work with IT'S CAMERA!!!!! or let alone THE DIFFICULTY!!!! or the THAT STUPID COLLECTING GLITCH!!!!(?) AND THE FACT that i get thrown off the map because clyde threw a firball at me!!! ughhh! WHY NAMC, WHY?!!!! THIS IS A KID'S GAME! WHY MAKE IT SO DIFFICULT THAT IT WILL LEAD TO KIDS BECOMING SUICIDAL!!! UGHHHH!!! The worst part is is that this game just doesn't feel like the first Pac-Man World which I came to love. Completionalists will blow their brains out, but those Pac-Man fans whoose main reason to play this game is to get to point A to point B and be done, you should buy **** no... not you... not the **** down that knife.... AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!

ok i changed my mind this game is super fun and a humungous challenge, sometimes i go into rage mode but enough of me, the gameplay is very simple yet very productive, if you like any kind of platformer you will enjoy this game

Amongst slightly frustrating gameplay, Pac-Man World 2 is a colorful, adventurous platformer for children of all ages. Pros: Lovable graphics and lavish colors lurk throughout its variety of level designs, pure old school platforming. Cons: Frustrating controls and camera angles halt Pac-Man from being a next-gen console masterpiece.
