See your link herePac Man fever: Venerable arcade game turns 25!
10 commentsThe Washington Post has a story today that at first brought a smile, and then made me cringe: Pac Man is 25 years old.
The smile -- well, who couldn't crack a smile, remembering the desperate dash to scoop up dots and avoid blue ghosts, while listening to the "wokka wokka wokka" sound effects?
And the cringe? Well, when a favorite video game from my childhood turns a quarter-century old, I start to realize how old I am, and how much time I wasted in my youth!
If you want to waste a few minutes on Pac Man nostalgia, or you're under 30, and are wondering what all the fuss is about, then check out the official Pac Man cafe. Folks with a bit more time on their hands can see the range of Pac Man emulators available for various systems.
Wokka on!
