The year 2008 brought us one of the most funny, infamous, and unplayable games ever: QWOP
And I say that with the utmost respect. The game was so incredibly hard (the controls were simply nuts) that any resemblance of a run was worth a celebration.
I don't know anyone who managed to run properly in QWOP but it made for some hilarious moments.
Here's a dude paying homage to QWOP.
Oscar worthy!
Could this be the world's oldest game controller? I hooked up my grandfather's old cast iron drill press using a wireless mouse & an ESP32 so you can live out your Puzzle Bobble/Bust-A-Move dreams!
It's hard work but now you you can know how Bub and Bob feel.π
American Truck for MSX (by Telenet Japan/1985) was a significant early hit for the company.
With the similar high speed scrolling of Road Fighter but you can ram and destroy other cars, and features toll roads and bifurcations. Destroying ambulances and school buses will reduce your score.
It's for MSX1 but was also available on the Sharp X1, PC-98 and PC-88 computers, with the PC-88 identified as its first platform.
This looks VERY fake, lips don't sync with the sound at all.
But if you want to report it, "fake news" "or AI generated" aren't options as a category. Typical.
BREAKING: BBC has compiled evidence of more than 160 Palestinian children deliberately shot in the head by IDF soldiers and snipers in Gaza. They concluded the worst thing ever:
"Israeli jews are hunting children for fun."
While we were trapped in northern Gaza and the bombardment intensified, I decided to move to the south to escape death. There was an Israeli army checkpoint. When my wife, my children, and I crossed, an Israeli soldier shouted at me, telling me to lower my head to the ground. He ordered me loudly to say that Palestine does not exist and to say that I am a rat.
Sadly, I said it β I even said I was a rat. Not because I was afraid for myself, but because I was afraid they might kill my children in front of me, or kill me and leave my children alone after me.
I remembered this moment now, and today I say it openly: Palestine is our land, and you occupied it. One day it will be free. I am not a rat β and you know that. You were standing with your weapon in front of my children, while I had nothing but the clothes I was wearing.
I am not a rat, and Palestine is my homeland...
@shrydar Aha, the pit. I have heard of it.
I'm not on any streaming service, so these things pass me by (until they get transferred to "regular" networks)
@Commocore From all the social networks this one bothers me the least.
But that's only because the connections here don't talk much about politics, wars or Linux/open source/decentralised networks.
I can see why it's on everyone's mind but I'm really tired of talking about it
This would have blown my mind back in the day. (*)
I probably would even have been ok with all the "insert disk 17β π
(*)Ok, even today this is amazing
