Worth Playing
With few novel twists on basic platformer elements and passable visuals, Pac-Man World 3’s only shot at investing Pac-Man with the charm of a Ratchet or a Clank rests with its story. It disappoints severely on that count.
Read Full Review >Nintendojo
Every platforming challenge is camera related. It's sad, because there is a lot of untapped potential in Pac-Man World 3.
Read Full Review >NintendoWorldReport
The technical ambition is overcome by nonsensical design and a general lack of creativity.
Read Full Review >Game Chronicles
While I commend Human Soft for packing in as much content as they could, the single-frame stills from the console and PSP movies are no substitute for the actual movie, and the total lack of voices, especially considering the amount of humorous Pac-Man and Orson banter, is just too detrimental to the overal presentation and gameplay experience.
Read Full Review >N-Insanity
Generally a frustrating game that will leave you crying tears of boredom after you're finished.
Read Full Review >IGN
While there is some fun to be had at the most simplistic of levels, no effort was put into making this a stand-alone great DS title.
Read Full Review >Nintendo Power
Suffers from one of the worst cameras in recent memory, killer slowdown and bland levels rife with invisible barriers. [Feb 2006, p.97]

Ultimately, this might be the worst game on the DS yet. The camera alone ruins it, even if the rest of the game wasn’t utter garbage.

pah! gave it a3:
a lame excuse for everyone's favorite yellow circle. spend your good money on somethin good like mario kart ds. if your heart is set on pac-man, try pac'n'roll, much more enjoyable.
