Anyone else getting a pseudo Pac Man game playing on the google web search page?

Noises and all...

Yep. They're celebrating the 30th anniversary of Pac Man

Today is also the 30th anniversary of the release of Empire Strikes Back.

OMG you can actually play!

I beat level TWO !

I almost beat level one...

High Score: 16030 woot.

Gotta love that, Google is now full of win. I bet employers are just slightly annoyed that the worlds most used search engine is now a games site...

Have you noticed that 'I'm feeling lucky' has been changed to 'Insert Coin'? If you insert coin twice you get two player pac-man, with a guest appearance from Ms. Pac-Man!

That is fraggin' cool. Google FTW.

Completed first level, then on the second a ghost bugged when I took one of those thingies making them run, instead of running away he ate me =<

You should have jumped in your reaver jetbike and chase him back waving your agoniser over your head

Not blocked by my school network, so I played this all during my website design class.

I'm interested in seeing if it is still playable on the archives after today. I doubt it, but if it is, that school firewall doesn't stand a chance.

Err... Wait, you haven't found a way around your school-net's firewall? =o

Back in Elementary me and my friends got ourselves administrator rights, letting us do whatever we wanted.. Including tempering with our classmates' accounts.

... God Windows XP was easy to fool.

In elementary school it was easy. Now they've added some stuff which makes it a bit harder. I don't use them enough to make it worth my time hacking them.

Theres stuff like Cascading Proxies. Basically you can make internet access impossible without using it, then set site restrictions there. Of course there's a bunch of other stuff..

I'm still playing Google Pacman by the way
Google is pretty cool today. I'm hoping they do this for other games as well.

I'm waiting for the google page for the Call of Duty 30th aniversary...
