\"\"<\/a>Last year I got something cool for my birthday that I wanted to show you all.\u00a0 It\u2019s a Pac-Man clock with a bunch of LED lights that simulates an old arcade screen.\u00a0 I originally saw it as a prize you can earn with tickets at Round 1 Arcade<\/strong><\/a>, but it cost too many tickets and buying it online was expensive, too.\u00a0 So I\u2019m glad a family member bought it for me for my birthday.\u00a0 So let\u2019s take a look at it!<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a bigger shot of the box it came in.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here it is out of the box, with just the time on it.\u00a0 One thing to note is the screen is REALLY bright.\u00a0 It\u2019ll light up the whole room that you put it in!\u00a0 I like how the number font is the same as the numbers on the Pac-Man arcade game.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Every fifteen seconds or so, they\u2019ll have an animation that runs by over the numbers.\u00a0 Two times in a row, they\u2019ll have Pac-Man being chased from left to right by the four ghosts.\u00a0 Here is a picture of that.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But every third time, it\u2019ll have the four ghosts all blue being chased by Pac-Man from right to left.\u00a0 Sorry the picture is a bit blurry.\u00a0 It was hard to take a picture of moving objects.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I tried to get a shot with Pac-Man on the clock, too, but this is as close as I got.\u00a0 I guess I could\u2019ve tried harder, but I think you all get the idea.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If I had any problems with the clock, it\u2019s that it\u2019s not an alarm clock.\u00a0 I think it would\u2019ve been easy to implement that in, and would\u2019ve made it a bit more useful as well.\u00a0 Also setting up the time is not as intuitive as other clocks.\u00a0 You can also set the date, but I don\u2019t know why since you never see it on the clock anyway.\u00a0 But other than that, this is a super cool clock and I\u2019m glad I got it for my birthday.\u00a0 Later!\u00a0 –Cary<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
