Who played the PAC-MAN game on Google's homepage today?
I was one! ^_^

Happy 30th Birthday, PAC-MAN!

it was awesome!!! took all three lives to beat the first level, but I played!!!!

Aye, just played a game.
I really suck at it, still struck my nostalgia strings~

If you press the "Insert Coin" button, Ms. Pac Man shows up

I saw it earlier and thought it was just a still image and thought to myself, "cool." Later though, I opened another tab and let it sit there for a sec and then I heard the music.. Went and played it and got through the first level no problem at all. Had all my lives and ate plenty of ghosts. I quit as soon as I passed the first level since I don't really have any drive to try and play it. It seems that this version is a lot easier than the real one..

Didn't know about Ms. Pacman before.

EDIT: You control her with WASD. It's kind of cool.. I got through the first level with all my lives again. A lot more fun to control two of them at the same time..

Here's an article about that:

I was surprised to see that they actually bothered with something like that. They usually just change around the looks...
A game as the logo for the day...

I did xD I thought it wasn't interactive until I pushed my arrow button. It's pretty cool.

I played it as well, and this was a cool little surprise by Google. They should do something like this again when anniversaries of other video game franchises come up.

the first time I saw it, I only realised it may actually be a game when I saw my almost stationary pac man get eaten. Then I started playing. Couldn't be bothered to play too much, though.

I played it. : )
At first I thought it was just an image, but while I was thinking of what to Google, Pacman started moving and realized it was a game. That was very cute of Google.

It's such a clever idea!!!
I was delighted that I could play Pacman. But I kept losing. It reminded me of how much I truly suck at classic video games.

Yeah I managed to play on it before my computer broke down

It was surprisingly easy. Easier than normal pacman.
I was controlling ms pacman at the same time too after a while xD

Today at my high school, the first period Environmental class discovered it while they were in the computer lab and as soon as Google loaded for them, the tech monitor shut basically everyone in the lab down. lol This was before anybody even realized it was game on google. Of course by the time I was in there for 3rd period, everybody was in there and no one could shut us down.

OMG I JUST DISCOVERED YOU CAN HAVE 2-PLAYER!

I can't even survive for 1 minute, lol...

But yeah, I played it. Brings back childhood memories. GO, PAC-MAN! <3

Edit: @diligent sesame, how do you do two-player? I'm DYING to know! (Literally, lol - I keep dying in the game!)

Edit #2: Nvm, just figured it out!
