Pac-Man World Rally, developed by Smart Bomb Interactive and published by Namco-Bandai Games has been released for Gamecube, Playstation 2, PSP an PC. Supernova Sound's remix of the main theme from the original Pac-Man game was used in the main menu and in the classic maze track.
A kart racer with Pac-Man and many others from Namco's catalog of classic characters. The game's 15 race tracks are designed to contain a whole lot of jumps and such to keep racers on their toes. In addition, there are six battle arenas for multiplayer action. You'll 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.
