Appreciation section[]

This week Matt appreciates an old and very famous game character, the iconic Pac-Man. Matt feels that though Mr. Pac is a well-know symbol of gaming, he doesn't get the respect that he deserves from his first game. Matt reminisces about how he's had Pac-Man at different stages in his life. He also informs everyone that it was originally call "Puc-Man" but was changed when brought out in America because people thought that pesky kids would start mischievously calling it "Fuck-Man" as a joke
