Google's Pac Man Playable Logo

In Japan on May 22, 1980, Pac-Man was released - which is now, although it is May 21st here in USA. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of Pac Man, Google has their first ever playable and interactive logo. Here is a picture of Google.com today:

Update: Mike from my team built a quick and dirty way to embed this onto your web site, so here it is so we never forget it:

Notice how Google swapped out, "I'm Feeling Lucky" for "Insert Coin." Very neat! And the game really works! You can play up to 256 levels in the logo, for real!

It seems to be built fully in JavaScript and DIV and CSS elements.

Go check it out at Google.com.

Forum discussion at Google Web Search Help, yes this is a complaint.

Update: A few hours later, Googler's have been posting your options:

If you've visited our homepage today, there's no doubt that you noticed our Pac Man doodle honoring the game's 30th anniversary. If you insert the virtual coin, you can begin playing this legendary game or you can wait 10 seconds and it will automatically start. If you're not a Pac Man fan or want to skip the music and lights, just enter you search query as usual and you'll be directed to our normal search results page. Other options include:

1. Closing your browser
2. Turning the volume down or off on your computer
3. Playing Pac Man all day long (or at least until you beat your co-workers)

Happy Friday!

Simply because there are dozens, if not hundreds of threads with complaints about the sound the Google home page makes from this Pac Man game. Here is one of many pages of complaints in Google's help forum:

Update: Google removed the sound based on complaints.
