Pac-Man is coming back. Namco Bandai announced Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures today, a new game based on the upcoming Disney XD show of the same name.

The game's announcement trailer indicates Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures will feature Mario-like platforming sequences, as well as the series-familiar ghost-chomping.

Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures the TV show is scheduled to premiere in 2013. It was created by Marvel Studios executive and Iron Man producer Avi Arad.

Expresses my feelings quite well. The Championship Edition games were such an awesome revival. Why this and not a port of Pac-Man Battle Royale? WHY?



Is it wrong for me to point at this and scream r*pe...?



In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

You Platinumed it on PS3 didn't you?

I love Pac-Man.

I love Pac-Man.

The DX version, yeah. I wish like hell they'd port it to Vita. The Minis version of CE is the only way to play it on a handheld but it's too slow for me now, even though I recognize that it's probably the better (tougher, that is) game.

Sadly, I will probably buy this just because I love Pac-Man, too, and I miss all the crappy 3D platformers we used to get.

My jaw litterally dropped the second the actual trailer started and closed about a minute after it was over. Imo it was this bad. The only info this trailer left me with is Pacman being on the mentally slow side and something something ghosts and jumping...

Perhaps I'm just WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
