Who hasn't played this game? One of the most simplest and purest gaming experiences you could ever have and it still hold up even to this day. It's hard to believe that the game is nearly 30 years old and it just shows you how far gaming has come. For all the effort developers put on graphics these sometimes I think they're forgetting that the main aim of games is for fun and enjoyment.

I don't remember when I first played Pac-Man because it was a while ago but it doesn't really matter because as I said before it's a timeless experience. It wouldn't have mattered if I'd played it 10 years ago or today the gameplay would be as great as ever. If you haven't played the game (I don't see how this is possible) it's on every single platform known to man and has numerous flash versions so go now and play.

Not much to say about this except that it's one of the few fighters I actually played for a while. Before Tekken 3 the only other fighting games I'd really played were SF2, KOF and X-Men vs. SF but no 3D fighters (maybe a bit of Virtua Fighter) so the game was an exciting new concept for me.

The other the reason I grew to the game was because of multiplayer, which is why most people keep playing fighting games. It was a game where me and my brothers and cousins would have our own little mini-competitions to see who was the best which led to many arguments and turning off of the PS1 by my parents.

12 down 353 to go.
