Pac-Man was pretty family friendly from day 1. I do agree with you that Pac-Man could be "hardcore" but at the same time, it was as "casual" as they come.

If you think that killed pac man watch this tv show trailer for pac man http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqLCSt-0S4Y&NR=1 This was shown at e3 2010 and now that we have this game and tv show it's a double kill.
The game didn't bother me, but if that's a real cartoon show, then R.I.P. Pac-Man.
Your logic is faulty. I'm not too savvy on the history of Pac-Man, but if you think them redesigning the characters is bad, then having human characters in Pac Man Fever is complete blasphemy. They've re-imaged Pac-Man more than just a few times and from what I understand, all of the games were shitty. I mean seriously, haven't you ever played Pac In Time? Absolutely horrible. Last Pac-Man game I remember playing and enjoying was Adventures of Pac-Man 2 on SNES, game wasn't anything to write home about either.
Also, as others have pointed out, since when wasn't Pac-Man family friendly? Oh that's right, I forgot about that game where he picked up hookers and then killed them for their drugs.

Hey!! I'll swallow your soul!! I'll swallow your soul!!
The last Pac-Family game that I really, REALLY enjoyed was Ms. Pac-Man Maze Madness on the Dreamcast. I played it on and off for years, and just last winter, I finally sat down and completed the whole frikking thing. It was a blast and had great replay value - my kids still love to play it.

I actually kinda like that. It's an amusing deconstruction. "I have to WHAT?" "To defeat the ghosts you must eat them!"
So am I the only person who enjoyed that trailer? I admit, I'm a diehard Pac-aholic though.
"Ai Oboete Imasu Ka?"
hardcore? oh, thats right, only the hardcore games get hit records , cartoon shows, and (god forbid) a cereal.
I'm like a Pacaholic, but for booze.So am I the only person who enjoyed that trailer? I admit, I'm a diehard Pac-aholic though.

I never knew they did a video for that song... looks like they need to make a game out of the Frankie Goes to Hollywood sequences... Relax, Don't Do It: The Gayme!
I saw that and thought "Network Decay AND Character Decay?"
I'm putting down $50 that this will appear on Nickelodeon.
It's probably gonna be on Nickelodeon or the 4Kids/Fox lineup on Saturday mornings. 4kids already molested other franchise- like bringing Kirby Of the Stars over to America and then raping it with bad dubbing.
i need a monster to clobber that there kir-bay
And don't bring up that stupid girlie Aladdin rip off! Shantea?
