Life Size Pacman: PAC MANHATTAN


I love Pacman! Not as much as my friend Patrick but I still think Pacman rocks the party!

A bunch of nutters (or should I say, heros) in New York found a set of streets which has a layout similar to the first level of Pacman.

Pacmanhattan is a large-scale urban game that utilizes the New York City grid to recreate Pac-man. The "analog" version of Pac-man is being developed in NYU's Interactive Telecommunications graduate program, they are exploring the impact of moving games out of the virtual environment and into the real world.

A player dressed as Pac-man will run around the Washington square park area of Manhattan while attempting to collect all of the virtual "dots" that run the length of the streets. Four players dressed as the ghosts Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Clyde will attempt to catch Pac-man before all of the dots are collected.

Check out their site for a fun look at gaming in the real world.
