- MetaMars, on 05/03/2008, -2/+266I own the shirt, and I didn't realize it was pacman. >_
- lucidguru, on 05/03/2008, -1/+229So what are the big pills then that make the ghost turn blue and let pacman eat them? Are those Uppers? Downers? Hallucinogens?
- mentallyinhell, on 05/03/2008, -3/+209Somebody make this game. NOW!!!

- fpaudon, on 05/03/2008, -0/+137I think it means that Pacman is popping pills to escape his demons. Never though Pacman was that deep

There you go. - contradictator, on 05/03/2008, -2/+119I always thought ti was more of WAKKAWAKKAWAKKAWAKKA.
- UtopiaInTheSky, on 05/03/2008, -6/+116*Wakka.
- oxdeltaxo, on 05/03/2008, -5/+112Anti-Psychotics, which allow pac man to over come his irrational fear of the ghosts.
- joshzam, on 05/03/2008, -0/+100Here is the actual explanation, from the artist himself:
http://www.threadless.com/profile/83893/travis76/b ... - inactive, on 05/03/2008, -2/+100From the artist:
"True story:
In 1976, Cosmonaut Nikolai Peckmann was sent alone to an orbiting space station for what would be called Mission Six- to study the radiation levels and strange circumstances that killed all four crewmen of the last research mission.
By the third day, Peckmann's broken transmissions were coming back to ground control filled with increasing paranoia and delusion. He claimed that the spirits of the dead cosmonauts were coming to claim him, and that he had to keep moving to evade them. He shouted that if he could capture consume these spirits himself while he still had strength, he could move to the next level of consciousness...Truly the rantings of an insane man.
Indeed, video recovered later would show Peckmann running around the confined but maze-like station, downing emergency sedatives like a madman....pausing in a corner momentarily, only to throw back vitamin pills and give chase to his invisible demons.
He had exhausted the entire cargo of vitamins, pills, and fresh fruit well ahead of schedule. There was no way another crew could be assembled to rescue him before he starved. After one rather violently garbled transmission, the static cleared and the last live image on record is that of Peckmann's empty, wilted spacesuit on the cabin floor.
It was determined that another mission to recover any remains or gather any more research would be a waste of the people's money, and the station was allowed to drift out of orbit and into space- a failure never to be mentioned again. It was ordered and assumed that all video and paper evidence had been destroyed." - doshindude, on 05/03/2008, -0/+98I wonder what else you own that you don't know about...
- JLecker, on 05/03/2008, -2/+99*****, I missed it. Can we try it again?
- SeventhSon, on 05/03/2008, -10/+100*WOPPAWOPPAWOPPAWOPPAWOPPPA
There, fixed it. - brendanryder, on 05/03/2008, -2/+84its a tshirt from threadless.com

- LimeParrot, on 05/03/2008, -1/+79Hmm. So Ghostbusters is really just... Pacman 2.
=O - AndrewDB, on 05/03/2008, -0/+67Comment abuse but link to the original artist and work for ***** sake:
http://www.zom-bot.com/ and http://www.threadless.com/product/751/The_Madness_ ... - purpl3hazze, on 05/03/2008, -1/+67OMNOMNOMNOMNOM
- inactive, on 05/03/2008, -2/+68Nope, wasn't ready. Do over?
- ichbeineinrcg, on 05/03/2008, -0/+62Every game deserves a good back story. I now patiently await the explanation behind Pong, Pitfall, DigDug, and Snakes.
- nickbarber, on 05/03/2008, -1/+60buried as inaccurate
- andyroo316, on 05/03/2008, -4/+62A brain?
- stavrogin2, on 05/03/2008, -2/+58Uwe Boll would make this movie.
- oxdeltaxo, on 05/03/2008, -0/+56If you go for more than a half hour without finding the pills, the game simulates psychosis and the ghosts come after you. I can see a whole new fps outta this.
- Hobbes24, on 05/03/2008, -1/+54i'm thinking pacman was responsible for some kind of accident that killed 4 of his shipmates, and he now tries desperately to flee their ghosts, and takes anti-depressants to keep himself from committing suicide.
- rin444, on 05/03/2008, -3/+53That's Fonzie....
- inactive, on 05/03/2008, -0/+46Anytime I play Pac-Man now, I'll think he's chomping on Xanax.
- inactive, on 05/03/2008, -0/+45Hey internet...find me that bag of weed I lost last weekend
- fenixconnektion, on 05/03/2008, -1/+41Naw, that's Fozzie you're thinking of.
- NeilJ, on 05/03/2008, -1/+40A funny quote between the correlation of video games and rave parties:
"Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music." - tehrob, on 05/03/2008, -0/+37It appears the Fruit is in the Loom.
http://www.threadless.com/product/751/The_Madness_ ... - dartmanx, on 05/03/2008, -0/+36Badly.
- AManWithNoName, on 05/03/2008, -23/+57So Pacman is a spaceman who takes too many drugs and starts seeing ghosts? It all makes sense now!
- celkin, on 05/03/2008, -2/+34In case anyone else missed it:
OMNOMNOMNOMNOM - kss42, on 05/03/2008, -1/+32I drew this cartoon, invented the game, posted the image, and applied for extended multinational copyrights on the Pacman Artist's Rendering Astronaut Pill Image and didn't realize it was Pacman.
- funktimus, on 05/03/2008, -0/+29I wonder if Ms. Pacman is really a woman now, or just pac-man's brother who had his fair share of pill-popping, fried his brain, and now wears lipstick and a little bow on his head.
- tripledjr, on 05/03/2008, -0/+29"6 Pac"
I see what they did there. - BlueStarr, on 05/03/2008, -0/+29Link to buy shirt please! Thanks.
- Skod, on 05/03/2008, -4/+33"..then, at the dawn of the eighties, a fledgling arcade game company called NAMCO would stumble across the transcripts of these events, and the rest -as they say- is history.
okay i just made all that crap up, but with or without a story, I hope it's a cool design."
opps, did I break it? - Yetisquatch, on 05/03/2008, -0/+28Seriously! Ive seen this still version and the flashing version and thought it was just some random image that looked cool. Now it all makes sense and just became awesome.
- toxicityj, on 05/03/2008, -1/+28why does he have the atari logo on his arm? Pacman was namco...
- slimjim5811, on 05/03/2008, -2/+27This "Spooky Space Kook" is from an episode of Scooby Doo...coincidence?
http://scoobyfiles.toonzone.net/mysteriesinc/galle ... - Enasni1212, on 05/03/2008, -0/+24No fruit, no Digg....
Ahh, who am I kidding, this is awesome. - lintmonkey, on 05/03/2008, -5/+28I always thought it was more like "heeeeeeey!"
- melonade, on 05/03/2008, -12/+34Hmm.. looks familiar.
