That was pretty awesome. Except for the fact that I had to log out of Gmail and clear my cookies before it showed up.

Pretty cool, but with no sound it's just not as fun.. and that Pac-Man map is a little less interesting than the normal one, too many straightaways. Still pretty awesome idea though, and fun for a few minutes... :)

There's sound. And music. All authentic.

Yep, there's sound and music ABF. Though, honestly that isn't a good thing. I think today countless companies complained to Google for wasting their time and, of course, annoying people who didn't expect cheap synthetic tones to come blaring out of their speakers.
Remember that for people who don't play video games, that music isn't naustalgic, it's annoying and crass.

You're right, there is sound. That's good.

What... huh? What are you complaining about here? That Pac-Man has sound or something? That's ... kind of odd, to say the least...

You know what we call those people? LOSERS.

I think "wrong" would work as well... :)

Not exactly ABF. I'm just saying someone walking into their office to quickly look something up probably didn't want to be audially assaulted by unexpected arcade music. I love my classic game music, but a lot won't.

It doesn't do anything until you click INSERT COIN. I'm not sure what the issue is, here.

Also, neat attention to detail: The death sounds and animations for Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man are unique to their own games.

It's on a delay. So unless you just sit and stare at it for about 10 seconds, nothing happens.

The Pacman game froze my browser, but it was fun nonetheless. It made me forget all about what I wanted to search for though. :)
