    Default Pacman Championship dx, Anyone playing, Addicted.

    Has anyone played Pacman championship dx on ps3 or xbox 360? I can’t get over how much fun this game is. It's like they took classic pacman and threw in some crack, I love it!

    The different mazes and eating a line of 20 or 30 ghost is fun as hell, It’s also cool how it goes into slow motion when you’re about to be killed. It's also nice to have all of the customization. You can pick the look of the mazes characters and select the bmg track for each round. I wish they would release this in disc form or for the 3ds. They already released pacman championship edition on pacman and galaga dimensions but it’s just not as fun.

    Pacman CE DX is the best game on XBLA hands down. According to Xbox.com, I've played it over 80 hours since last March. Pacman. For 80 hours. I'll pick it up and play for an hour just to shave off a few seconds from my leaderboard times. So much fun. "Addicted" is about right.

    I liked it and got a pretty good high score on both Pacman CE games.. but I eventually had my fill of them. Once you know a pattern (easy by just watching the high score replays from other players) it just becomes a repetition of pulling off the moves with as little mistakes as possible.. so it becomes a mere tweaking of scores. e.g. "oh I scored 1,385,000.." a couple games later you score a couple more hundred points, repeat until you get as high as possible. And really to do that you need a perfect control scheme which is a dedicated 4-way Joystick, which I just don't have for the 360.

    Where did you locate that statistic? I've never noticed that they tracked the time played for each game.

    Xbox Live Rewards has a "Statistics" section that shows your top 5 games (hours played) for the last 6 months and compares it to the "Community". I'd link to it, but I'm on my phone.

    I'm addicted enough to the regular CE on 3DS to fuss with DX but I'll get around to it eventually. I tried playing the original and it felt like it was running about 4 ticks too slow from what I've become used to with CE. Especially on the Highway challenge level.
