Namco Museum Remix review

You're better off with the memories

Reviews

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works.

Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

If you were stepping through the Museum curtain anticipating a classic romp through the likes of Rally-X, Galaga, and Pac-Man prepare to be dissappointed, horrified, and possibly a little offended. These are the unfortunate titles infected by the Remix. Just look at how Galaga has been reduced to a idiotically easy light gun game starring Pac-Man's head in a flume.

Above: How could this be anything but Galaga?

Museum Remixseems to be obsessed with Pac's limbless head, because you'll spend a lot of the game controlling it with the analog stick. From the lame overworld to Pac Moto, a king-of-the-hill knock about you've seen a thousand times better in many a Monkey Ball, rolling his little yellow noggin just plain sucks. If you need further proof, try the re-imagined Pac 'n Roll (This ain't yo' daddy's Pac-Man!) although we don't recommend it.

As for remaining remixes, Gator Panic and Rally-X: Absolute shit. They're not justbad updates.The motion controls are incredibly stupid, andthe game compensates with gameplay so easy it's almost insulting.
