Win a Copy of Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures for the Wii U (Ends 11/12)

This weekend I had a fever. Pac-Man Fever, that is! (Cue the ’80s soundtrack, boys!) That’s right, Pac is Back! Tying in to the new pac-Man cartoon on Disney XD comes Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures from Bandai Namco. And to celebrate, Nintendo World in Rockefeller Center had a spectacular Pac-Man Kick-Off Party this weekend! Ryan and Allie were busy, but Jason was beside himself.

Ryan cracks me up. Constantly. This kid is such a well, such a boy when it comes to playing. Not the rough-and-tumble sports kind of boy.

That means I’m finding way too much cool stuff that I forgot I had. One of which was an old report I had done in school about video games. It had some serious analysis in it based on a cool survey I had created and handed out to my …

I’ve Got Pac-Man Fever!

by Andrew Kardon

Then I met my wife in college, who was not only a huge fan of Ms. Pac-Man, she was also the best player in the whole dorm! That and the fact that she didn’t run to the hills when she saw my …
