kiwitobes has a great video timeline of the spread of Wal-Marts through out the United States. It almost reminds me, as many of the commenter have pointed out, of a virus spreading through out a population. Poetic justice I suppose.
Watch the little year in the corner to see just how crazy things get after 1990 or so (thanks China!).
Australian comedy duo Clark and Dawe tackle the current recession in the United States, explaining to the audience how the crisis began, how much damage it might actually do, and what these developments mean for international markets. Ironically, these guys have done a better job summing up the situation than I believe most American news analysts.
Quoted from !WBTG!:
This game is very hard. You could find that getting past the very first few screens is taking you the better part of an hour, or more. Do not be deterred. It’s supposed to be unfair. Realize this before all else; any and all situations can kill without warning. Take nothing for granted. If it appears safe; you can be nearly certain that it is a trap. Understand that you can only get hit once before you die in a particularly gruesome manner. Be careful!
If you find yourself becoming sloppy calm down, take a deep breathe, and either continue on or stop playing for awhile. You may just be worn out. Often times you’ll find nearly impossible situations are a lot easier when you’ve had a night’s sleep.
In the end, you can at least take heart that save points can be frequently encountered. It is just about the only solace you shall have on your quest to become The Guy.
Frustrating doesn’t even begin to describe the difficulty level of this game. Stitched together from pieces of old 8-bit platform games, ‘I Wanna Be the Guy’ mischievously takes the most challenging parts of every boss you ever battled on the SNES and strings them back to back. Major props on the Megaman intro.
