2014-07-31 09:41:36 +0000 UTCAnother great review! I did not know a pack existed this early. I was playing the Commodore 64K in the 1980's. I also had a Commodore PET as well.

2014-07-30 02:37:02 +0000 UTCI think a bag of beef jerky is a better Pac-Man than the 2600 game.

2014-07-30 00:35:03 +0000 UTCAbsolutely. Having such a playable version of the game in '82 was pretty impressive.

2014-07-30 00:19:35 +0000 UTCWhen I saw that box in your last video, I already thought "Woah, PC-Man came with a box? Hopefully he will review that soon". This was the one and only Pac-Man clone that I had as a child.

2014-07-28 10:02:38 +0000 UTCIn my mind, Pacman is an awesome illustration of the huge difference at the time between purpose-built gaming hardware, and general-purpose computers. Kudos to Greg for recreating such a large portion of the magic entirely in software.

2014-07-28 01:16:26 +0000 UTCThis definitely was a better version of Pacman than the 2600 version. And that one was official...

2014-07-27 23:31:02 +0000 UTCAgreed on both counts :)

2014-07-27 22:33:35 +0000 UTCThis actually looks pretty sweet for an early IBM PC game. Also, don't you just love it when clones end up being better ports of a game compared to the official counterpart?

2014-07-27 22:32:03 +0000 UTCYup, if you got far enough! Frequently credited as the first game to ever have them <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8BT43ZWSTY" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8BT43ZWSTY</a>
