Happy 25th Pac-Man!!
From USA Today:

Pac-Man and Donkey Kong really birthed this $billion video game industry thatwe have today with dedicated video game programmer schools and dozens of print magazines (and even more websites offering cheats and such), and even cable channels devoted to video games (who buy-out the channels that try to cover the wide spectrum oftechnology just for the audience share. Grrr...) Happy birthday, Pac-Man (and by extension, the simplicity of imagination)! Some of those old games were so much more elevating than the current dearth of first-person shooters. POL9A |

The games are different though. I've gone back and played old games I loved as a kid and some don't hold up but many do. Ms Pac Man (fast mode) in particular is probably my favorite game of all time. So many good games...Donkey Kong, Defender (I suck), Joust, Qix, Tempest...well you get the idea. |
