Pokemon Red - Played by Crowd Sourcing

[Lalina]

Sooo apparently somebody thought it would be a good idea to put Pokemon Red on the internet and have the game be controlled via a chat room (i.e. if someone types "a" the A button will be pressed, if someone types "start" the start button will be pressed). Thousands of people all trying to play the game at the same time? It went better than I expected actually. They've made it as far as the arrow puzzles in Silph Co. Unfortunately, they have been stuck in that building for at least a day. Possibly more than that. I only got wind of this yesterday. Anyway, if you're curious, take a look: http://www.twitch.tv/twitchplayspokemon

Oh! I just tuned in before posting and it seems that they have altered the interface. They are now allowing people to vote on button selection (maybe they took pity on the fact that they may have been in Silph Co. for days. http://www.geekosystem.com/twitch-plays ... democracy/
