According to my local paper, Pac-man is now 25 years old! YAY! My fave versions of Pac-man are Ms. Pac-man, Baby Pac-man, Pac-Mania, and Pac-Man Arrangement (found on the GBA title Pac-Man Collection). This game never gets old. Happy 25, Pac-Man. And as it says at the end of Pac-Man Arrangement: "Remember, someone somewhere is being chased by ghosts."
:rock:

I recently played Pacman on a Redoctane Ignition Dance Pad. If anyone wants to have a really interesting test of their skills on a dance pad and at Pacman, play that. (Has so far played Shenmue II, Sonic 1, Tetris Worlds, Pacman, and Galaga on a dance pad).

Wow, GhostontheNet, that's pretty impressive!

My newspaper did a big article on pacman and said it used to be called Puckman and was based on the shape of a partly-eaten pizza the designer saw on a truck!! They couldnt call it puckman due to the serious potential for vandalism :lol:

Really, I heard the designer was eating a pizza and one slice was gone and he just stared at it and thought up Pacman. Maybe my newpaper left out details.

Does anybody remember PacMan World: 20th Anninversary. Good Play. Never played any of the sequels though. They didn`t look good.
