Now, fans of 'Pac-Man,' one of the world's all time favorites, will have a chance to compete online on Xbox Live Arcade, and become the world's best 'Pac-Man' player.

Microsoft and Namco Bandai Games have together announced the first-ever Xbox 360 'Pac-Man' World Championship, presented by Quiznos.

According to Jeff Bell, Corporate Vice President of Global Marketing of Microsoft's Interactive Entertainment Business, "Pac-Man reached an iconic status in the '80s across multiple generations and cultures, so the Xbox 360 'Pac-Man' World Championship provides a great incentive for fans old and new to fall in love with the game all over again."

Starting April 25th through May 9th, fans of 'Pac-Man' will compete on the classic arcade game via the Xbox Live Arcade. A total of nine finalists in the Xbox 360 'Pac-Man' World Championship will advance to the finals, based upon highest Xbox Live Arcade leaderboard scores.

Top finalists from Asia, Australia/New Zealand, Canada, Japan, and Mexico will be joined by two finalists from Europe and the US. This group will be further joined by the winner of the 'Pac-Man' FANatic contest, a competition where 'Pac-Man' fans from the US and Canada have to submit a video demonstrating why they are ultimate "Pac-Man" fans.

The winners will be flown to New York City for the finals on June 5th, and the final winner will be crowned Xbox 360 'Pac-Man' World Champion by Toru Iwatani, creator of 'Pac-Man.'

He/she will receive other great prizes, including 26 years of free Quiznos toasted subs; 100,000 Microsoft Points for games, movies, and other fun content available on Xbox Live; and a one-of-a-kind Xbox 360 featuring a special design inspired by 'Pac-Man.'

Gamers interested in practising can download 'Pac-Man' (400 Microsoft Points) from Xbox Live Arcade on the Xbox 360. For a complete list of participating countries and country-specific eligibility criteria, gamers can visit http://www.xboxlivetournament.com/ starting April 25, 2007.
