New York – It’s the Pac-Man 30th anniversary this weekend, and Google is celebrating as only Google can: with a free online game embedded in its homepage logo.

The ever-changing Google logos – called Google Doodles – which often celebrate holidays and notable birthdays, was updated Friday to look like a screen classic Pac-Man game.
But in a delightful twist – the logo actually is a Pac-Man game. Alongside the “Google Search” button, today the site offers an “Insert Coin” button.
Click it once – you get Pac-Man. And added bonus – click it twice – you get Ms. Pac-Man for two players.
Google’s and Twitter search trends were burning with Pac-Man related key words as word spread – and (we suspect!) work in offices across the nation ground to a halt and game fans paused to play.
To play, Pac-Man on the Google home page, click “Insert Coin” and when the word “Ready!” appears, use the arrow keys to control your Pac-Man.
If you add Ms. Pac-Man to the mix – Player 2 uses the “W-A-S-D” keys as controllers.
Cute! There are worse ways to waste time…
Today the Politically Correct Morons on the left would call this game discriminatory!
They would want It to be called PAC-PERSON !
