Yeah, it's kinda mid, but leaning more to the good kinda mid. The original Pac-Man World didn't look like anything special, so this remake is pretty straight forward in that regard and delivers a pretty faithful remaster of the original....At least...As far as I can tell, idk I never played it lol.

It does improve a lot of stuff from the original game from what I've heard and even if it isn't the best platformer compared to other modern ones, at least it is short and sweet, which I also appreciate.

What I DON'T appreciate is the fact that they made the cutscenes so BLAND! The cutscenes in the PS1 game were so fucking cursed! But they were the best part of that game!!!

This game doesn't have Pac-Man yelling at the top of his lungs, or Pac-Man JR getting lobotomized, or Pac-Man eating Orson alive at the end of the game. They even got rid of the fake outtakes from the PS1 game...... WHY THE FUCK DID THEY GET RID OF THAT?!

Yeah...Overall, the presentation for this one is a bit lacking compared to the original game. It's still a solid platformer, but I really hate when these game companies think that modernizing a classic requires them to strip these games of all personality.

3/5. Play it just so we can get Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac PLAY IT NOW!!!!
