Heh, this is probably my third thread but anyway has anyone aside from me here noticed that Google's seasonal/commemorative logo (doodle as the folks there like to call them) is a Pac-Man game?

Wow, I didn't expect that coming.

Yeah, it's the 30th anniversary of the game's release in Japan.

I say, I'm impressed as this is a very unique and well crafted tribute. Anyone tried co-op?

It's pretty awesome. Easier than the actualy pacman game though.

Yep, the map's shape makes for some easier escapes and the AI is going in circles around me, though I'm stationary and unmoving.

Oh wow. when did they start this?
(I guess the copyright for the game is out now or something for them to be able to use it like this)
It is probably one of those temporary things google likes to do...

Google-Pacman is really hard.

Let's give Google a big hand!

They should of put this in yesterday, so I could play at school. Oh well. The earliest articles reporting this date back around 6-7 hours ago.

Of course it is one of the season/commemorative logos Google puts in. Didn't you read the OP?

They do always change it. And it usually goes by the seasons. I found this one kind of random but cool!
