Pacman (and preferably Ms Pacman) is my all-time favorite game. It's a timeless classic that will be tough to beat. I used to be extremely good at Ms Pacman back in the day, being able to get to 300,000+ points without even trying on 1 quarter (helps when you bet $20 against your buddy at a bar to help motivate you). I love that Google embedded a playable Pacman game into it's logo. Ingenious and WAY too much fun!!!

Awesome!
While a little easy I wish that new logo stayed a while.

I have been playing it quite a bit since they put it up and the ghosts even have their own patterns!!
Just like the days of old.

While I am very weak in the game, I remember even a cartoon was made from Pac-man:

Absolutely! Google has really outdone themselves on this one.

And Pacman is truly awesome.

Though, I didn't seem to notice anyone wishing Pong a happy birthday.

I just found a glitch to the game today! If you immediately go and get that "power pill" to the far bottom left side of the screen as soon as the game starts, all of the ghosts stay blue for the whole level, unless you eat them all. But if you get another one they go back to being blue again.
