Too bad the date was the 4th of July instead of the 1st of April. Then it would be obvious how fake it is. The only thing that makes me hesitate about it being parody is the fact that it isn't that funny.
(Canadian jokes are inherently funny too, so it's hard to make something involving that not be funny.)
Anyway, to play a so called perfect game, you'd have to eat every bonus cherry and t-bird and you'd have to eat every ghost each time you had the power-pill. Sounds pretty hard to do. To get the highest score possible, you wouldn't have to play perfectly, though. There is a difference.
The part where it said all the old machines were looked at was BS. Most of the bodies got replaced with other games (hence many games, like Vs. Super Mario Bros had the Pac-Man maze etched in the screen). The high scores would certainly not be preserved in either case, all it takes is one brown-out, or a reorganization.
Waste of news links, if you ask me.
