Pac-man Championship Edition 2 announced!

Looks pretty rad.  Much better than what Battle Royale was.

I'm also happy they're releasing it simultaneously on XBone, PS4 and PC this time around.   Sept 2016 is the release month, but no mention on the actual date.

I haven't played the other one. Was it cab friendly?

yeah, playable on a 4:3 monitor, but better on a 16:9.
I had it running in one of my cabinets via XBOX 360 and had many hours of fun. I hadn't tried the Steam version since it took forever for them to put it out on PC.

That trailer just looked like a 70s disco neon heroin nightmare.

From what I could gather, it looks like it might be fun?

Hard to tell what's part of the game, and what's ad-flash. I'm thinking most of it is the latter, to really juice the kids' heads about it.

My 2 boys and I have a fun time playing the championship on steam.
More than two people does make it more fun.

 :cheers: Yes sir...that was pretty damn fun I have to admit. 4 Player Royale would be rad. Word on the street is you will be back in Denver soon.

Maybe we can hit up Hyperspace.
If you can read this, it means Photobucket's money grab ruined my signature photos.

Does the controls have that 1 second lag?
If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.
