Australia takes Galaga world record

Post by Thunder Force »

So can anyone beat 3.44 million?

(my 219,440 is not quite there yet :) )

Not a huge news story, but interesting to point out nonetheless.

Swimming and Galaga. These are our talents.


Now we just need to combine the two.

Well, it's not the swimming so much that has me interested, Casey...the picture says it all :P

Also, if the Aussies should combine Swimming and Galaga, what should the Dutch combine? I'm going to hold you to Swimming and Geert Wilders until you can beat that highscore.

(America...well, we are AMERICA, FUCK YEAH, so we are exempt you know.)

Seriously though, congrats to Australia, but more so to the Dutch for having nice women. Not that these talents are mutually exclusive or anything. *cough*
