Screenshots of Pac-Man and Galaga on XBLA


Namco announced the Xbox Live Arcade versions of Pac-Man and Galaga at Microsoft's Japanese press conference last week. This, of course, spawned the obvious question, "What's it gonna look like?"

We're happy to report that high-def Pac-Man and Galaga look like ... well, Pac-Man and Galaga with artwork on the borders. Sure, it's not thrilling, but at least it doesn't look like this. Galaga screenshot after the break.

1. A Pac-Man mini-game is included with Ridge Racer 6. It's actually quite good (ie. authentic). I'd wager that it's the same code built as a standalone application.

If you're hankering to play Pac Man today, pick up a copy of Ridge Racer 6.

2. Neither of these better be over 400 points. Any more than that and I wont be buying. I've already owned over 4 or 5 versions and feel it's redundant to buy another version.
