(AP) -- For a video game, Pac-Man is getting downright old. The ghost-wary hero with an insatiable appetite for dots turns 25 this month.

From the early 1980s "Pac-Mania" to today's endless sequels and rip-offs, the original master of maze management remains a bright yellow circle on the cultural radar.

I know that Pac-Man is older than alot of you are, but this came became big in my early working years. Brings back a lot of memories. I wonder how many quarters I put into this game?

Hey Bud,
I still play Pac-Man on my Nintendo 64. I never had an Atari system, but a friend down the road did, and we spent many hours munching the dots and ghosts...ahh the memories...

I can't even count how many hours I spent in the video arcades playing Pac-Man! Ahh, good times!
