Has it really been 25 years?

CNN.com - Pac-Man chomps up milestone - Jun 15, 2005

Ah, the days of my youth spent plunking quarters into Pac-Man machines. Misspent? Probably, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. The days at the roller skating rink playing Donkey Kong, the time spent in the back of the local Hy-Vee playing Frogger. It was those little things that make up the fabric of me.

Thank goodness you can play Pac-Man without having to pay 25 cents (just now realizing how much I miss the "cents" key on the computer keyboard.) And, of course, you can find out everything you ever wanted to know about Pac-Man courtesy of this site.

And it even mentions the sucky Atari port of Pac-Man, which we played until our eyes fell out of our skull, even though, yeah, it pretty much sucked.
