a free full version pac man title would be a great incentive.
Are these for the new touch-screen iPods that were announced yesterday?
D’uh, me no get satire!
Games–Shmames. Appeal to the mouth breathers.
MW — school –exactly!
I downloaded the Ms. Pac-Man demo on my 5.5g, and didn’t like it. Every time I tried to make her go up (by pressing the Menu button), it would stop the game and take me into a menu selection!
They’re gonna have to do something about the interface before these games are ready for prime time.
re – ron
yes, because only retards like entertainment, right? civilized people are only concerned with work and business. you sound more like PC from the get a mac ads than a mac user…
80% of PC users (home) are more likely to play games on their PC’s
80% of Mac users (business) are more likely to use their Macs for proffessional applications.
PC users are used to time wasted proding their OS’s to do what they are meant to.
Mac users are used to using their OS’s to the max at all times and therefor have little time for games. They do have time for Music and films though!
I think. (well introduced caveat)
Ms Pac-Man is OK and all, but I’d really love to see Frogger released for the iPod.
“80% of PC users (home) are more likely to play games on their PC’s

I believe there are more non-business Mac users than there are business Mac users. Owning a Mac doesn’t necessarily mean the end of gaming.
Maybe the thinking that Mac users are not “so much” into games than their windows brothers is what keeps the game developers from releasing their titles in it’s Mac version. I hope not because i’m also one of those Mac users who would love to play games.
