Has anybody here heard about the recent mass attacks spearheaded by a "Cry Wolf Productions" on youtube?

Basically, any videos referencing Irate Gamer in a "negative" way (parodies, YTP, commentaries, rants, etc) are being false-flagged (and taken down) and the associated accounts are being suspended. Though it may be one end of the youtube spectrum, there is currently an uproar from about 100 users on youtube who are justifiably in rage due to their accounts being suspended by this phony company. A lot of these people are actually quite well known and have high production values for their video game reviews+videos; and their accounts (with whatever videos) were taken away from them. Besides the ~100 guys, it has also impacted some few others who have decided to leave youtube altogether.

Furthermore, several other accounts that have Irate Gamer related material have set their content to private to avoid this attacking spree.

Upon contact with Chris Bores by some other guy, he has strongly reaffirmed that he is not involved with this and is in fact upset that someone is using a phony company and potentially defaming him (not that he had too much fame to begin with; but he gets respect for at least saying that Cry Wolf Productions must be stopped). He quit false-flagging some years back and never false-flagged to this magnitude.

As a similar point, this kind of behaviour clearly reflects on how much youtube fails. You can clearly see how much youtube neglects the injustices and how false-flagging goes untapped.

Have any of you guys seen the Hell Hack of Super C SMWHacker88 and I worked on?

Well anyway, the main interest in this topic is another hack we worked on: Super *Parc Backwards* 7. You may have guessed it, it's a hack of Super Contra 7. Now, the difficulty is insanely hard (read: insanity); but gamers who've frequented Doom modding communities may know about Jokewads with similar characteristics, and so this may not be unusual to them.

So, as the title may suggest, this is essentially a joke hack (or joke ROM) of Super Contra 7. Now, Super C Hell Hack may be a killer hard hack we made, but it's at least reasonable and genuine challenge and can be beaten. To beat Super YONG YONG 7 genuinely, you must have no life

Interesting features of Super *parc backwards* 7:

-Levels hacked to be very hard.
-Every level is packed to the brim with enemies.
-New, unused enemies populate the levels, all stored in the ROM, including an indestructible variant of the gun dispenser.
-Enemies of different levels found on different levels.
-Many enemies are given insane strength.
-New enemies/boss behaviour.
-Getting powerup isn't so easy.
-The extra lives cheat isn't going to help you... AT ALL.
-Modified graphics and palette for almost everything.
-Music is partially modified.
-Sound effects are heavily modified and can really drive you mad!!!

This hack is recommended to be played with infinite lives, at least, and even then, be prepared to spend a good amount of time battling your way through.

And so, without further TO DO, I present to you, SUPER *PARC BACKWARDS* 7:

Anybody here got iTunes?

I need some help with an app that doesn't seem to be available in my country (Canada). It also doesn't seem to be available in the US. Unfortunately, I do not know how to determine what country it requires you to be in. Could any of you guys try to access this app and see if it's available in your country (a Contra-based app):

iContra

Similar to my Desert Storm thread, this is centered on the 16 bit game, Commander.

Condensed verdict: one of the worst excuses of a video game and definitely one of the worst Contra games.

Detailed information:

The game has 1 music track; it's a 5-second sample of the first level tune from arcade Super Contra. It literally plays throughout the entire game, except for the first level's boss, which is a tank. The tank's motor acts as the music in that segment.

You play as Ray, from Contra Hard Corps. Your default gun is the ordinary pea shooter, but you can upgrade to Machine Gun (same strength and as regular gun, the most pointless powerup), Spread Gun (can be weaker than your default gun) and fireball (acts like NES Contra's Fireball but is the most powerful gun in the game; it's slow, however). There's also a plain powerup without any letter. I don't even know what this does, but I suspect it clears the screen of enemies. But even that I can't even confirm because you find this powerup fly by ALWAYS when there are no enemies around.

You also can't gain lives through points, but it gives infinite continues. After each game over, you start at the beginning of that current stage you were on. The hit detection is absolutely horrid in some areas. And it doesn't help your troubles that the controller's motion sensor is programmed poorly, so you'll often jump when you don't want to (usually into enemies). Even when not doing anything, the player will jump sometimes.

All fodder enemies and some boss enemies were taken from Contra. Most bosses come from other sources (IDK).

The worst part of this game? There are only 2 levels. That's right. But even though there are some minibosses, the actual bosses themselves take forever to destroy. Using the fireball gun alone can take about 5 minutes to kill one boss when intensely firing at it. I don't consider this any bit a consolation for the game's minute length, nor can it qualify as a challenge. It's just tedious.

Bottom line: perhaps you'd want to beat this game knowing that it has infinite continues and only 2 levels, partly making up for its shitty nature. I'm getting really suspicious that this is just a stupid ripped and shortened version of Super X Man. Why? Well, that game has a main menu, character select, more guns and definitely more music. With that in mind, it's safe to assume it probably has more levels.
