The Score of Cool Springs New video game Burning Big, Huge Piles of Money announced; simulates game-buying experience at area GameSlop storesGame slated for summer release on Atari 2600, Virtual Boy, and Neo Geo systemsWednesday, April 1, 2009 The so-called “GameSlop buying simulator” allows gamers to re-live their customer experience buying games from a retailer other than The Score of Cool Springs. Players earn points by physically burning cash, working their way from burning single dollars in early levels to burning entire piles of currency toward the end of the game. “Video gamers that shop at a GameSlop store know what it’s like to burn big, huge piles of money,” commented Vanderbilt’s Dean of Wasteology, Dr. Mario. “This simply allows folks to re-live the experience at home, over and over again, without actually deflating the economy in the process.” The game’s programming team, which previously worked on hits such as Sneak King and E.T. – The Extra Terrestrial, worked under extreme pressure to complete the game in less than two days. “This is a completely arbitrary quote block, inserted strategically into this fake press release, to explicitly communicate that this is an April Fool’s Day hoax,” commented a spokesman from The Score of Cool Springs. “For those that made it this far into this terrible document, we pledge to sell you Burning Big, Huge Piles of Money when it’s released to market - cheaper than anywhere else!” Rumors could not be substantiated at press time that developers are already working on a sequel around GameSlop’s game trade-in process involving the controversial practice of waterboarding. Any resemblance GameSlop may have to an actual video game retailer is purely coincidental.
