A 1st Church of Pac-Man exclusive


A shrine to Pac-Man brings light and hope to the Atari area
5/30/2000

"Wow!" you're saying to yourself. "Reverend -=ShoEboX=- got to go to E3!" No, I didn't. That would have involved taking time off of work and buying plane tickets to fly from New York to California, and either one of these things would be like jamming my finger down the throat of my bank account. I'm not in any hurry to do that...everybody seems to be a lot happier with me when I pay my bills.

So how did I get these amazing pictures, you ask? I got them by feeding and picking the box of a small gray evil frightened cat. Technically, it wasn't the cat that gave me the pictures, but while I was taking care of the evil frightened cat and trying not to let her bite me, her owner (let's call him "Alan Q. Bilodeau," since that's his real name except for the Q, which should be a K,) was at E3 checking out all the upcoming games and getting dozens upon dozens of pictures of himself with E3's legendary "booth babes."

So in return for me taking care of the cat (and disposing of the various substances she regularly produced,) he agreed to take a bunch of pictures of all the Pac-Man-related stuff at E3! Most of these are from Namco's area, although Hasbro's Atari area had a few Pac-Man items to promote their upcoming Pac-Man game for the PC. Anyway, PICTURES!


Our hungry redeemer is poised for action! Some have claimed that the flash in front of his mouth is simply some other weenie taking a picture. I say it's a power pellet, and I'm the Reverend, so NYEAH.





Ms. Pac-Man, Baby Pac-Man, and Professor Pac-Man watch the Namco area from above as the masses tremble below in awe.



The Ms. Pac-Man "stadium," where followers of the family Pac got a sneak preview of Namco's upcoming "Ms. Pac-Man Maze Madness" game.



Someday maybe I'll get my wife drunk enough that she'll let me decorate our place like this.



To promote her new game, Ms. Pac-Man herself put in an appearance! Apparently, the wife of our yellow hero has a debilitating condition of some sort which restricts her arm movements to simple rotations.


And that's it! Al took more pictures, but these are the only ones he decided to give me. So if you want to see Al patting Ms. Pac-Man on the head, or Al on a motorcycle with Lara Croft, or Al drooling over scantily clad women with shirts depicting various corporate logos, or four midgets dressed up as Kiss, you'll just have to wait until Al puts his own page up (this should be soon.)

Reverend -=ShoEboX=-
