[UPDATE: A permanent Pac-link now resides at Google.com/pacman. Special thanks to FREAKAZOID for the tip.]

By now you’ve probably heard (and heard and heard) about today’s “ghost sightings” over at Google. For two days only, Google is hosting a free version of the original Pac-Man game.

Yes, behold hungry-hungry Pac-Man versus those rainbow-colored wraiths Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde!

Free 30th-Anniversary Pac-Man at Google!

Here are a few secrets for all of you ‘core gamers:

To play Pac-Man, click the “INSERT COIN” button. Easy peasy. To play Ms. Pac-Man Co-Op Mode, double-click the “INSERT COIN” button, and use the W-A-S-D keys to navigate.

Google’s Pac-Man is also compatible with iPhone OS! That means you can chomp your ghosts on the go, via iPhone, iPod Touch, and glorious iPad. Alas, the only thing missing is sound.

Of course, this wouldn’t be THE FEARSEEKER FILES without a horrific twist. So here it is: A few years back, a Pac-Man crop circle was discovered in the UK at lat: 51.4001846313, long: -0.985098004341.

Aliens (or hoaxers) are gamers too. IS IT REAL?
