Google Pacman
« on: May 21, 2010, 11:55:25 am »
Thought it would be worth mentioning here, in case anyone hasn't noticed, that Google's logo is pacman themed for pacman's 30th birthday. The surprising thing is that it's fully playable, just wait a few seconds and it comes to life.

I know it's unrealistic, but I can't help but imagine little bearded babies for dwarves. In my mind, they come out of the womb fully bearded. That's how the mother carries them around, too, she just drags them around by the beard or ties it to her belt. When the father's on duty, he just ties their beards together and the baby just kind of hangs there, swinging to and fro with Urist McDaddy's movements.

If you haven't noticed: it comes to life instantly if you hit "Insert coin" (where "I'm feeling lucky" usually is).

Also, if you insert two coins, Ms. Pacman shows up, controllable with WASD. Fun for two players... or a nice challenge for one person.  :D

Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

My cousin was killed by a dual thread. Not funny, not a good joke.

And yet your post is a joke.

What about triple threads?

Dual threads not good.

And he beat me to it by 44 minutes. I'd say other games would be more appropriate, that's my excuse for not checking General Discussion anyway hehe.

Understandable mistake, it's in a different forum with a name which doesn't actually tell you what's in the thread.

Honestly just posting cause I remember when the original game came out (in an arcade) and was feeling nostalgic.

Later,
