Google Logo Playable Pac Man Game

Google Logo Playable Pac Man Game

Though always spectacular, Google's logo art isn't particularly newsworthy. Until today. In honor of Pac Man's 30th birthday, the Mountain View-based company created a Pac Man logo that you can actually play.

Visit Google and hit "insert coin" to play.

Developed by Japanese Namco and then licensed for distribution in the U.S. by Midway, the first Pac Man game was released in Japan on May 22, 1980. The game's sequel, the arguably superior Ms. Pac Man, was released one year later, which resulted in worldwide "Pac Man Fever" that lasted for most of the 1980s.

Update: Hit "insert coin" twice for two players. (Mr. and Ms. Pac Man!)
