From iwatch stuff, If the Minutemen, the '40s superhero squad of Watchmen, had existed, there probably would have been a mid-1980s Double Dragon-style game based on the characters. Right? At least that's the thinking behind the latest piece of Watchmen viral marketing, which allows you to play a simplistic arcade game as either the original Nite Owl or Silk Spectre. The gameplay isn't great, but at least it doesn't cost the $20 in quarters I'd spend beating Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

OMG, that's so great!!! It perfectly captures late 80s video games. Nice.
anyone notice the rolf mueller poster in the subway? daily watchmen props to anyone who can explain the significance of that. anyone? mueller? mueller? frye?
mueller=HJ, McGee!
fitty, if you know that HJ is mueller, then clearly you must fly east to see the watchmen advance preview screening.
Has anyone played this? It's really funny because it's EXACTLY like a game in the 80s, music and everything.
