Pac-Man is a classic video game that was first released in Japan in 1980 and has become one of the most iconic and enduring games of all time. The game, which was developed by Namco, involves a player controlling a character called Pac-Man as he navigates a maze, collecting dots and avoiding enemies called ghosts.
The 30th anniversary of Pac-Man’s release would have been in 2010. To celebrate the milestone, Namco released a number of special editions and re-releases of the game, including a 3D version for the Nintendo 3DS and a browser-based version that could be played online. In addition, a number of events and promotions were held to mark the occasion, including a world record attempt for the largest game of Pac-Man played simultaneously.
Pac-Man remains a popular and beloved game today, and has inspired numerous sequels, spin-offs, and adaptations. Its enduring appeal and cultural impact make it a true classic of the video game industry.
