Ms. Pac-Man

This sketch is pretty random so I figured I'd explain myself... This summer my family took a trip to Florida to hang out with a friend. Our friend has a vintage Ms. Pac-Man cabinet in her house, and we played the CRAP out of it. I drew this while we were there. All of us were thoroughly infected with Pac-Man fever.

Part of my job as a dad is making sure my kids appreciate the history of video games. It's really easy to get caught up in the graphics of the latest game or the processing power of the newest console, but games should always, first and foremost, be FUN. A lot of the games I grew up with in the 1980s weren't pretty to look at based on today's standards, but they're still entertaining. (Except that E.T. game for Atari. That's still a trainwreck.) It's nice to see that a lot of game designers feel the same way, and I think the gaming market is a lot better off because of it. We have a lot of fun games out there, and not all of them are hyper-realistic or Pixar-quality--we also get games with retro graphics or with really experimental art styles. Good times.
