Introduction
Well, we started to enter to everything related to the great Pac-Man as I like to call it. In this story will include its origins, game modes, etc.. And will include a review of several of the games of Pac-Man.
Pac-Man is a great puzzle game like that after leaving achieved incredible fury, beating its main rival at the time, such as the famous Space Invaders and the first title of the famous Nintendo. Its success was such that he managed to create an entire fashion, considered as the best game of the 80s and later he even have a very famous television series, and character apparel fashion designers. But the success of Pac-Man does not stay in the 80's, not, fashion extends to the present day, and we can realize in contemporary games,in the much celebrated anniversary of Pac-Man, which held the greatest exponents of the game and gave us the opportunity to

 

play on the main screen of the famous search engine Google. You could say that this game has had two major periods: the launch (years 80) and its resurgence (2000-2010). For the period between these two periods while the great Pac-Man did not disappear, he had a boom, but what better to do to return this game now that video games are much more advanced than when its output, which could be a second fashion and the great revival of this great game. No doubt, Pac-Man is a game that is a time and above all a great fashion.

Argument
Pac-Man is a yellow circle with a big mouth trying to fight against ghosts through numerous levels that are shaped maze, increasingly complicated. The way to end temporarily with ghosts is eating white circles can usually be found at the corners of the various mazes, with which Pac-Man is practically invincible for a while, allowing you to kill all the ghosts of level.

Pac-Man has a sense of humor that appears between levels, represented by a video mini comic character (one of many reasons why the great Pac-Man has become so famous). The videos are representing the comic sense that he tries to add to the game, but not only that, but also represent the history of the game, so they are like short that indicate the situation that exists depending on the level we are and beyond.

At the same time integrates Pac-Man classic feature / purpose of obtaining points, while not the most important of the game are something that attracts players and that definitely are a symbol of culture who is better than sometimes gives great excitement to the game, especially when playing in 2-people, and like most games, stories, no more no more Pac-Man represents the eternal struggle between good and evil.


Pac-Man Cartoon
What every great man has, and well deserved in this case, Pac-Man had his own cartoon. Pac-Man had well deserved to be the star of a television program and in the year 1982 he succeeded. In the golden years of the famous Pac-Man's reputation achieving such success that it was decided to launch the Pac-Man cartoon, for obvious reasons Pac-Man being the protagonist, while maintaining the classic style as the ghosts and the guest appearance of his family. This TV program was not successful, but it certainly is an irrefutable example of what came to be Pac-Man in his prime. No doubt Pac-Man fashion represents not only a generation of video games, but a humorous, in this television series that is of the main things that remain: the humor that has always been given to the character, and thus seeing again that Pac-Man is a character that is anything but monotonous.

The Pac-Man cartoon is based on Pac-Man Pac-Man 1 and 2, trying to recreate the adventure of a struggle between good and evil and of course as the main characters including the family of Pac-Man. The cartoon is curious aspects: an example is that cities are called Pac-Land, or Pac-Hollywood, and the cartoon based on a representation of everyday life with a bit of adventure. The show had 2 seasons of 26 and 16 chapters respectively, giving a total of 42 chapters, dubbed into several languages. Pac-Man and his family are well set the goal of stopping the head of the ghosts you want to take over the forest. Finally the show ended in 1984.

The big game that creates a complete success, with which we see the birth of the hero Pac-Man. For many the best game ever, with multiple levels labyrinth. So successful was that inspired many, many sequels (games). No doubt, a game that continues to impress us even in 2010.

Ms. Pac-Man
Given the resounding success of Pac-Man, the company decided to launch a second part for all platforms of the time, and later on many platforms in their respective periods, such as the SNES, Atari, Family, and even laptops, as are the Game Boy and Game Boy Color. But obviously it is something different from the first, being on this occasion the female version of Pac-Man game's protagonist, called Ms. Pac-Man (hence the title game), with the same objective but obviously their differences as they are related the name change in some ghosts, changes in movement and changing them to a random motion, changing positions of supplements, some changes in the appearance of the mazes, but especially and most notoriously, the change the main character.

Again, a delivery which hit the target, taking the second game of Pac-Man while the second great success of it and to grow the number of followers. No doubt another great game that is attributed the explosion of the season as the Pac-Man game more often.

Note that in this release NAMCO did not intervene.

30 Anniversary
The 30th anniversary of Pac-Man was quite recognized it was spoken in the news from different countries and of course if Pac-Man is a great exponent, we see the first sign of his birthday when one of the greatest exponents of internet gift we the possibility of playing Pac-Man is its main entrance, of course! we refer to Google, which Pac-Man celebration in a very subtle one more proof that Pac-Man is an icon.

Pac-Man is a game that certainly has represented many, many things. It's a game that is not at all monotonous, to almost all game genres, from painting cars, to the classic puzzle game representative of Pac-Man. It's a game that has evolved with new technologies and has been improving and preserving the great icon that is. I'm sure if not all the games were a success, most are of great pleasure for all, represents a generation and a representation of fashion in their golden years, although it is a classic game does not take away the spirit of vitality of humor and love of family. No doubt, a classic that today is in his second term, making the parents that gave birth to Pac-Man and the children now play it on consoles at the moment the approach a good time. It's just a great game that has been quite entertaining countless things.
