I can honestly say that Ms. Pacman was not one of my stomping grounds in the arcade. (I was more of a Defender, Zaxxon, Donkey Kong sort of guy) But, I did play the occasional Pac Man (when my quarters were sitting on the Defender machine waiting for the current player to finish and have me tutor him in the ways of smart bombs, baders and mutants.) I was very excited to download my new (yet nostalgic) release of Ms Pac Man from Ballshooters.com. Dare I say, "Rad Dude", now I will now take you through my journey back into time for some narly game playing, complete with my brand of 80s lingo!"<br /><br />Check out the radical reviews dudes and dudettes. Excellent! And, hey, isn't it "gnarly"? :lol:

Oh... the memory of Zaxxon brings back very pleasant memories.

Has anyone heard of the port of such classic Arcade games to our PocketPC?

Just hoping.....
:D

I just emailed the Pacman authors for cab files (I'm using an old mac and can't install from an exe file) and would you believe I got a reply from my request about 5 minutes after I sent it! Nice work!
