Pac-Man was originally released on May 22nd, 1980, making it 30 years old today in Japan. I felt like this thread needed to be made, since I’m sure a lot of us older SRK folk ranging from 20-30+ years old have played Pac-Man at least once in our lives. I’m sure even the younger SRK members know what Pac-Man is, even if they’ve never even played the game before. Even though the game came out six years prior to my birthday, I still played it at the arcades when I was young. Good times.
So I’m sure I speak for everyone when I say “Happy 30th Birthday, our favorite yellow, pizza shaped, ghost eating hero!”
yeah, Pacman is the true gaming legend. Ms. Pacman and Super Pacman were the first games I was addicted to.
*highly recommended–> Pacman Championship Edition for those with Live (I guess it’s on PSN too? I don’t know…didn’t have that system at the time Pacman CE came out). In my opinion, it is the definitive version now. Example vid of the greatness: [media=youtube]Iy0J27k1Z5E[/media]
