Pac-Man Championship Edition II is a lovely variaton of a classic. The rhythm is everything, the hi-score is your boss, and even if it's approach it's not free as the first chapter, after 30 second of play you'll be in the zone like the old times.
Boasting a wealth of challenge and a litany of well considered changes, Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 feels like a Grandmasters Tour of series architect Toru Iwatani’s magnum opus. Accessible and compelling, Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 is one of the finest arcade games you can buy on PS4.

Una muy buena secuela, algo en lo que debo de resaltar es en la banda sonora, es muy hermosa, hablando en términos de gameplay, pues cambia muchas cosas del juego anterior por lo que entiendo que a mucha gente no le haya gustado, por mi parte pienso que esta bien, para que se note que son juegos diferentes y no parezca solo un dlc con graficos 3d

Despite the lack of innovation, Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 is a great arcade game just like its predecessor.
Adds a lot of excitement to an already fast paced game that makes Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 a very worthy follow-up on its predecessor.
Bandai Namco didn't try to reinvent wheel, but it's a very good sequel and a great way to experience Pac-Man.
Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 did not take the direction everyone would have preferred. But great respect goes to the development team for trying to do something different than the usual formula.
I can definitely applaud CE2 for not just resting on its laurels and just releasing more CEDX but with more maps and skins or something, but what they actually did with the gameplay managed to take a lot of the thrill out of it. Despite the fact that it seems to run a lot faster, there were too many times while playing this game that I just got bored in the middle of a run. “This still going, huh?” I thought to myself. For all its bells and whistles, bumping music, and sleek framerate, Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 just doesn’t keep the thrill alive.
I loved the original, spending hours upon hours playing it on PS3. When I saw this had released it was an immediate purchase and in no way was I let down. It is different than most Pac-Man games, as the play is much more frantic and the ghosts are totally different. Don't sleep on this one.

I personally don't like the bomb and ghost train changes they made with the championship edition style, but it at least proves there is more to due with this formula. Also the adding of boss stages is actually a really good edition. I really hope to see more of these games because it still makes pacman games highly addictive!

Buen Juego... Durante las Primeras Dos Horas.
JUGABILIDAD:
Hablar de la jugabilidad sería como explicarle a un arquitecto el cómo se dibuja una línea: todos lo conocemos. Pac-man usa una formula clásica de su franquicia, pero aumentado la velocidad exponencialmente y creando así un verdadero reto. Todos los niveles son muy buenos y están cargados de adrenalina.
El mayor problema aquí es su repetitividad. Pese a los varios modos de juego, Championship Edition 2 no deja de ser un arcade con pocos niveles que se repiten una y otra, y otra vez. El modo historia es más de los mismo y no hay una razón de peso para querer terminarlo ya que las llamadas batallas contra jefes son, una vez más, repeticiones de áreas anteriores.
¿Es entretenido? Pues sí, pero no por demasiado tiempo.
GRÁFICOS:
El apartado que menos me importa en un juego así. Cumple estéticamente con lo que cabria de esperar. Podemos darle un aspecto ligeramente diferente a los laberintos y los enemigos, aunque tampoco nada espectacular. No es que haga falta, en realidad.
SONIDO:
Gratamente me he encontrado con que unas piezas muy correctas, todas de un corte electro y con un ritmo muy marcado que ambientan perfectamente la jugabilidad rápida del juego. Incluso la canción del menú me parece adictiva.
INNOVACIÓN:
Cambios mínimos que no aportan lo suficiente para hablar de una innovación respecto a sus entregas mas recientes.

Pac-Man Championship did a fantastic job of updating the classic formula whilst retaining the core of what makes it Pac-Man and I spent many hours trying to beat my own personal, and a few friends, best scores.
With my Xbox360 no longer in working order I jumped at the chance to pick up this sequel on the PS4 but must admit I came away disappointed. Perhaps realising that they'd pretty much perfected the formula already Namco seem to have taking the kitchen sink approach to this sequel but, rather than adding to the formula, they've simply over-complicated matters. Little "cut-scenes" that play out for certain events and pointless "boss battles" etc all interrupt the flow of the gameplay without adding anything of worth and the way the ghost now move at random (rather than remaining in a train) once you collect enough pellets to eat them adds an unneeded element of luck. The fact that a fairly long tutorial is needed to explain all these elements speaks volumes really.
Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 is still a fun game at heart, but overall it actually feels like a backwards step from its predecessor.

Way to take a winning formula and completely over complicate it. The changes ****. Don’t “fix” what’s not broken. If you’re a fan of classic Pac-Man there is no way you stand by this title. Jumps, spark corners, bumpers, all this extra bs. Just make a Pac-Man game a Pac-Man game ffs. Devs these days…they ****.
