As hilarious and .gif worthy the incident was yesterday that saw an Iraqi journalist chucking his shoes at President Bush, did we really need a flash game? Apparently so.
The company T-Enterprise must be quick with their flash programming
(or they knew about the incident beforehand!), because in less than 24
hours they managed to churn out a game (albeit a crappy one) where you
must defend the President from shoes being thrown his way.
"If you watch the video clip, the Secret Service don't
move to protect the President until the second shoe has been thrown,"
said Sadi Chishti, managing director of T-Enterprise, the Glasgow-based
company behind the computer game. "We're hoping the agents will use
this game as a training aid for future footwear attacks on world
leaders."
Rather than batting the shoes down with your arms or hands, though, the game makes you shoot
the shoes, with a good chance at hitting the President. Game Politics
noted that was probably by design. I have to be honest, the first time
I played it I unloaded into the President thinking that was the
objective. WHOOPS!
You can play this "game" after the jump!
