Shame, too...this past December 23/24, I got my 8th split-screen on Pac-Man (topping 3,256,XXX). What's significant about this is it's my first such try on the arcade Fast Game (difficulty 2) and it beats my first "topper" on the slow game (3,252,010 in '86--beating John Birkner's 3,214,270 Guiness '82 record at the time). During 1986~88 I would become an unofficial "Pac-champion of the world" reaching a recorded 3,271,720 and another I forget offhand (3,28X,XXX), a feat that would not be topped until 1999 by Billy Mitchell and later by Chris Ayra and others. (I tend to favour Ayra because a) he did it faster, and b) he's willing to chat amongst Pac-masters like myself...more friendly.) I even drew my own pattern diagrams back in the mid-80s, and I was willing to teach others how to play like myself. Nothing irks a rival more than a league of challengers, I say.

I am also the current PS/PS2 home champ on Super Pac-Man, Pac-Land, Bubble Bobble, Rainbow Islands, and Zoo Keeper, and Tower of Druaga (to name a few). In a way, Bubble Bobble is Pac-Man's antithesis: you use of EX-haling helps to combat your enemies.
