i remember spending hours in the computer room at my elementary school playing this game over and over until i caught carmen san diego! back then, computers were too expensive for even a middle class family [in the philippines] to purchase but i was blessed to have gone to a school that had computers and offered classes as early as the mid/late 80s (oh wow, i'm dating myself too much!). the game created in me a 'love' for geography, history, trivia, and travel! and now that i am much older, i credit 'carmen san diego' for my ability to answer questions on jeopardy regarding geography, world capitals, and world cities.
i read in the news today that j. lo. might be playing carmen san diego in the film adaptation of the game. it got me excited and i feel like i'm 9 years old all over again!!!! =D
