Pac-Man World Rally
Pac-Man World Rally (パックマンワールドラリー, Pakkuman Wārudo Rarī?), known in Europe as Pac-Man Rally is a kart racer with Pac-Man and many others from Namco's catalog of classic characters, for the PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube, PlayStation Portable, and PC. The game has 15 race tracks and a battle mode similar to other kart racing games. In addition, there are six battle arenas for multiplayer action. You will also be able to collect power-ups to attack opponents or gain an edge in the race, as well as Pac-Man's signature fruit pickups, which in Pac-Man World Rally unlock secret shortcuts. There is a total of 16 characters for the player to choose from.
The Xbox version of the game was canceled, even though there is a preview of it included in Pac-Man World 3. On the other hand, the PlayStation 2 and GameCube versions are backwards compatible with the PlayStation 3 and the Nintendo Wii, respectively.
The music in the game was created by Tommy Tallarico, Dweezil Zappa, Mike Rubino, Rod Abernethy and Charlie Malone. The scores are all based on the mood of each level but also contain hints of the original Pac-Man music cleverly woven throughout.
Despite all the innovative features the game implemented, the game generally received mediocre ratings from many online gaming sites and magazines due to the overall unoriginality of the Mario Kart-inspired design.
