Super Pac-Man Plug 'n' Play...question on games and website
I was searching for recent releases of Plug 'N plays, mainly because in K-Mart I noticed that they released Intellivision Volume II. I didn't care for the games on this, and didn't see a "Volume I," and was searching the web for info (I still haven't found any).
I digress. In my search, I came across Super Pac-Man Plug 'N Play, available on a website called Nextag.com. Is this a reputable site?
The game: 4 Pac-man games. I heard of one - Pac-man. The other three I never heard of: Pac-N-Pal, Super Pac-Man, and Pac-man Plus.
Anybody pick this up for an opinion? Are these games remotely as fun as Ms. Pac-man or Baby Pac-Man? Of course, the original Pac-Man was a bore since the maze never changed.

Super Pac-Man is pretty good. If I remember correctly, I think Pac-n-Pal was similar to it as well. Pac-Man Plus is a harder version of the original, where when eating a power pellet, only 3 ghosts may turn blue, the maze can become invisible, or the ghosts can become invisible, there were also a few other changes but I can't remember them off the top of my head.
Bringing up Baby Pac-Man brought back some memories. I used to love that game since there weren't very many other pinball/video game combos that I can remember at least. That may also be the only game in the Pac-Man series I can remember that some of the ghosts were actually faster than Pac-Man, and I'm pretty sure its the only one where you had to earn power pellets.

I'm a big fan of Super Pac-Man. They changed the gameplay enough that it doesn't feel like a retread of Pac/Ms, but it still managed to feel like a Pac-Man game.
The arcade I used to frequent had Pac-Man Plus, so I remember playing that one quite a bit. It's essentially a 'remix' of Pac-Man. It's a nice inclusion, especially since it doesn't seem to get the attention of the other games.
