Pac-Man

Pac-Man  was first video game franchise in the history of gaming. Everything from Pac-Man board games, to apparel, to an animated TV series showed up. Players of Pac-Man were obsessed enough to come up with the first gaming bug exploits, develop strategies for escaping the ghosts ,and this was the first game to have techniques unique to the game, an example being corning, that allows players to navigate Pac-Man faster than the following ghosts. Inky, Blinky, Pinky, Clyde were smart, and each ghost had a fairly complex and unique behavior, in a loose sense, a personality. Some hid, some attacked directly, some planned where Pac-Man would end up at. This is one of the earliest examples of AI in a game.
