Funny how nobody here remembers the Apple ][ game, called, you guessed
it, "Microwave." Damn that game was fun and an improvement on Pac_Man,
which it had clear roots in.  I call Pac_Man one-dimensional when the
two are side by side.  And the music was gorgeous.

notice here. ;-)

According to Mobygames, "Microwave is generally credited as being the
first game to incorporate music *during* the action of the game,
rather than just in cut-scenes."

And I thought you'd congratulate them for getting this back on topic!
