One year older, and about two dozen or so titles fewer, Pac-Man still retains the “most recognizable” title among video game characters in the United States, according to the upcoming edition of the Guinness Book of World Records. The book, which in recent years has trended strongly toward video game records (and, according to us apparently, is a “must-have” ) found that more American consumers recognized Pac-Man, beating Mario by 1 percent, 94 to 93
