Hit the ground falling.So this actually has been around a bit, and I am too slow of a blogger, but let's take a look at QWOP, because it's so horrible!
The idea is to snap this little rag doll's tendons with the Q and W keys, as well as the...O and P keys, yes. Fast twitch muscles! Yeah! (Please don't correct my anatomy...)
So what we really have here is a puzzle game masquerading as a sports game. Perhaps all sports are puzzles, but that is another blog post and it will not appear here (!) I'm just saying that it's more about finding the correct sequence and timing of button presses than it is about jogging, nevermind sprinting.
It is pretty easy to uncover any variety of cripple runs, where you skid the avatar along on one heel and a knee. Some of these may cause you to giggle a bit, but of course, the best part is watching him finally flail out of control and whack his head, particularly because of concussion icon that pops up:
Sadface!

Sadface!Satisfaction in fail! Great! Excellent! I need a new game to play! ;p Novetly for an Internet moment, QWOP nevertheless has a FB fan page.
