File:Classic Game Room HD - PAC MAN for Atari 5200 review

Description
Classic Game Room reviews PAC MAN for Atari 5200! How does this version of Pac Man compare to the Atari 2600 version and Namco's arcade stand up classic? Arguably the most famous video game character in history, Pac Man is recognizable everywhere in the world. The mesmerizing maze based game has been ported onto dozens of game consoles, new and old and has been shrunk down to play on watches, phones and toys. Back in 1982 there were fewer ways to play Pac Man than there are now, and unless you went to the arcade to play a real coin-op Pac Man machine you weren't going to find a quality Pac Man conversion unless you had the ATARI 5200. The CGRHD Atari 5200 reviewer reviewing Atari 5200 games like Pac Man loves this game cartridge. Pac Man on the 5200 looks great, sounds great, plays well and is a stunning example of the potential that Atari's 5200 game system. The analog Atari 5200 non-self centering joystick is terrible for Pac Man, practically ruining the experience. I'm out to find a better controller but can say with certainty that this version of Pac Man is awesome! It just needs a better controller.
