He also brought about Ms. Pac-Man and may have been one of the people that elected to call him Pac-Man, not Puckman, in the West. Apparently Netflix interviewed him a couple of weeks ago for an upcoming video game series. He was 94, died 2 days ago. All these sirens and stuff were going off in my street and neighborhood. I went to talk to the window, the house is full of Pac-Man stuff. Crazy that he was living right here. --- PotD's resident Film Expert. <cite>CyborgSage00x0 posted [p:980427265] in Apparently...
