Well, it can't get much worse than what Doom is reported to be.

Worse? Prob not but Doom at least has something to go on like mosters and a STORY.
Pong is just tennis with no sexy players.

It's a ploy to make the Pacman movie seem more watchable.

Life is like a clay pigeon -- sooner or later, someone is going to shoot you down and even if they miss you'll still wind up shattered and broken in the end.

One should never stop striving for clarity of thought and precision of expression.
I would prefer my humanity sullied with the tarnish of science rather than the gloss of religion.

Hooray sarcasm!
I'd never seen either of those shorts (Pac-Man or Pong)... My day just got a hell of a lot better.

True dat. Ah, youth. The movie was a lame extended Nintendo advert, but no one cared. And at least it was better than Super Mario Bros.
