Now I know that this isnt in the best of tastes.
But before anyone jumps down my throat, it IN NO WAY idolises or supports the attrocity that was 911.
Even so, using the attack in any way to make money is horrible! Even in a game that has GW as the good guy and Osama as the villain.
It is one of the weirdest of hacks that I've ever seen though!
Basically it's some kind of hack of MS1, with added cut scenes featuring George Bush swearing vengance on Bin Laden (who denies it all of course), at the end of each level , the player is treated to a Metal Gear Solid 'Codec' type discussion between the president and the terrorist. To say its the weirdest thing I've ever seen would be the understatement of the year.
Now, despite rumours to the contary, this game IS real, not a hoax, or a wind-up.
Now, as is probobly the same for most of you, I have a whole bunch of people who are always on the look-out for anything SNK related for me (Especially Metal Slug) and a couple of months back, a market trader who sometimes gets Japanese import stuff (At the time mostly Pokemon) told me he could get 'Metal Slug for the GBC' Well, as you can imagine, I thought 'Whoopty fu**ing doo' and told him to get me one! As you can guess, I was a bit suprised when he got me a game called 'Terrifying 911'!
The intro is a video clip of the attack itself
, then there is a long discourse from GW, a retort from Bin Laden, then its straight into MS!
Which I gotta say is really quite good.
I was a bit disapointed that it wasn't an official Japanese GBC game!
I had thought it was gonna be another forgotten GBC release! (Last time that happened, I got a copy of KOF Heat of Battle!) So I was wondering, have any of you guys come across this pirate hack?
And if you have do you know anything about it?
Like where the hell did they get the rom from?
I showed it to a friend of mine who told me that Lan-Kwei sell them (hence the link) so I guess that they must be quite common in Hong Kong.
