It's almost inhuman how good some people can get at rapid and highly complex muscle movements with enough practise. What an amazing achievement.

And mental, think about something like chess! In general it's just incredible how good we can become at anything. It's kind of interesting to think about in times long past where warfare was melee based and how there would have been similar outliers. Somebody who lucked into some good genetics, good diet, and good training would have been a mountain among men.

Is this all only possible with old consoles?

I'm speculating that modern games limit the amount user IO on PC and Consoles?

Unreal achievements being made in the game. I hope the "rebirth" screen can be reached!

I'm left wondering if the game score be overflowed to produce different kill screens?

I’m not into Tetris but that was surprisingly interesting.
