Wakka, Wakks: PacMan Revived With Championship Edition For Xbox 360
PacMan…and I said it all. Designed 26 years ago by Toru Iwatani at NAMCO, PacMan is synonym for video gaming and a pop-culture phenomenon.

Today the most beloved game of all times has reborn due to Xbox 360 gaming platform. Microsoft teamed up with NAMCO BANDAI Games and "Pac-Man Championship Edition" was introduced in in New York City at the first-ever Xbox 360 Pac-Man World Championship, presented by Quiznos. The 10 participants from four continents and eight countries around the world competed at The Supper Club in New York City's Times Square. To advance to the championship finals, each participant had to earn the highest "Pac-Man" score in their respective home country during the qualifying rounds that took place from May 4 through May 10, 2007.

Of course the game is updated with six new timed game game modes, new soundtracks and high-definition graphics.

"I'm deeply honored that people view 'Pac-Man' as my lasting legacy and am so excited to come full circle by releasing the 'Pac-Man Championship Edition' with its exciting new mazes and modes on Xbox LIVE Arcade on the Xbox 360," said Iwatani, creator of "Pac-Man" and currently a professor at Tokyo Polytechnic University. "It gives me great joy to know that my final contributions in my corporate career were to crown the Xbox 360 Pac-Man World Champion and to leave the world with an amazing new 'Pac-Man' game for generations to enjoy."

"Pac-Man Championship Edition" is available for download on Xbox Live Edition and it costs 800 points.
