Replay – Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures

It's been a while since we saw our ol' buddy Pac-Man. What better way to welcome him back than to mercilessly pelt him with yellow spheres. Don't worry, he takes it pretty well. See for yourself in this new episode of Replay.

Dan takes the controls on this episode, and Reiner, Tim, and I watch with glee as he nearly devolves into a quivering mess. Spoiler: Dan has neither patience nor interest in reading tutorials. As you'll see, those are both traits that would have helped in this strange mix of an adventure and action game. Poor Pacs.

We've also got a roulette that proves to be a bit better than we'd anticipated, Just a bit.

  • Pac-man 2!  I owned that game and finished it!  Of course, I only finished it because I was a kid and I had a limited number of games available.  But man did I play that a lot.

  • Man, I miss Tenchu.

  • is this what happens when you eat fruit?

  • I lol'd, and why odes pac-man sound like a cat?

  • One thing I'll never know... WHY.  Why Dan thought a dead dove floated out of Pac-man's mailbox.  You thought I'd ask why this game existed, didn't you?

    Pac really became a sad sap after his arcade heyday...

    Gotta love/hate the 90s.  Casper has such a dopey face too.  This is the Replay of Sadness.  Lucky Chicken wasn't so lucky - sounds like they got some of the worst licenses in gaming history.  That Aquaman game is notoriously awful.

  • dan is legally retarded i think

  • Sweet.

  • I remember this game.  I hated every second of it.  Made no sense and was impossible for me to understand at the young age I was when I tried playing it haha

  • Just by reading the comments I can see that this will be an interesting episode...

  • I kind of wish they'd re-replay pac-man with someone else. Someone that wouldn't shoot everything, and then freak out when those things don't like being shot.
  • Dans going to have a heart attack on ready one of these days jeez. Great episode guys!

  • I understand why someone wouldn't care about an old point-and-click that they never played when they were a kid, but I don't understand why you have that person do a Replay on said game.  The only person more frustrated than Dan is me.  I hate when Dan is playing.

  • Poor Dan. First, he gets his ass kicked by Mike Tyson for hours on end, and then he is expected to be patient at a game. As though we don't know how he plays games. And personally, my favorite Replays have Reiner, Tim, and Dan in them with a rotating fourth chair.
  • I beat this game and watching Dan play this is really painful. :P

  • I love Pac Man 2, so thanks for the Replay, even though Dan kept bashing the game every chance he got :P Don't get me wrong, Dan is my favorite Replay guy, but he just needs to stick to playing 2D Mario platformers on Replay.
  • Do you guys keep Dan around only because he satisfies your special needs employees?

  • This game is absolutely ridiculous.  So ridiculous in fact, I think I'm gonna play it again on my Super NES tomorrow.

  • I never beat the boss and it wouldn't save.

  • Pac land for thetg16 is the sidescrolling pacman game.

    I have it and it is strange I dare you to play it.  the d pad is useless.
