New Offer!

Quote:
PacPC (and Ms. PacPC) are freeware versions of *you guessed it* the arcade classics Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man.

They're DOS games (they were made back in 1995!), but even today, many Pac-Man fans consider these games to be the greatest Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man clones ever made! They were both built and coded by a guy called JROK, and like he says on his site: "These games are NOT emulations using the original game code, they were coded and debugged from the ground up."

You can get both games from his website: www.jrok.com. However, I made an archive containing the games bundled with DOSBox*, preconfigured and set to run in original arcade resolution. You can download it here.

I'd really love to see these two games on this site. Like I said, many people consider PacPC and Ms. PacPC the best Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man clones of all time, and I feel they need more recognition and respect.

*The DOSBox in the archive is not the latest version, but rather v0.73. The reason I did this is because the aforementioned "original arcade resolution" won't display properly in later versions.
This was a post I made on your sister site Reloaded, but I thought I'd make the offer here as well. Even though it's a freeware game, like I said it needs more recognition, and it's WORLDS better than the Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man already on your site.
