Pac-Man World 3 is the third game in the Pac-Man World series and the only one in the trilogy that was not released in Japan. It also marks the 25th anniversary of the Pac-Man arcade game. This game features more fighting and more melee combat than the first two Pac-Man World games. It also features a speaking Pac-Man for the first time.

Testing

This title has been tested on the environments listed below:

Test Entries
Revision OS CPU GPU Result Tester
4.0-4478 Ubuntu 14.04 Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Barely playable. Dialog in-game plays at half speed and crackles without LLE, and with LLE (on thread) the game can go as low as 50% speed in large areas. It's more stable with HLE but not by a whole lot. During the walking animation Pac-Man will sometimes jitter forwards and back which is annoying but it doesn't actually change the gameplay. Otherwise cutscenes, music, physics are okay but it's so slow it doesn't really matter. Xerxes
5.0 Windows 10 AMD FX 6350 @ 3.9GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 OpenGL, HLE, 2xNative, No AA, 1xAF

Far more playable than previous builds. Pac-Man's movement still studders but the audio lag and generally slow speeds are gone.
