Fast bowler drops energy for game (3-3)

I believe the answer is:

pac-man

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'game' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'fast bowler drops energy' is the wordplay.
'fast bowler' becomes 'paceman' (cricket term).
'drops' indicates named letters should be taken away.
'energy' becomes 'e' (physics symbol as in E=mc2).
'paceman' with 'e' removed is 'PAC-MAN'.

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
