Bush shoe-throwing incident now a video game

Within hours after the Bush shoe-throwing incident happened, the online community or should I say the creative thinking people of the online community began releasing footage of the said incident with a bit of a twist--hilarious spoof animated images and videos and a couple of online games.

Yes, video games that allow site visitors to take the role of television reporter Muntadar al-Zaidi and take a shot at US President George W. Bush by throwing shoes. One such game is called Sock and Awe.

The objective of the game is to hit the President with your shoes. Players are each given 30 seconds to try to hit President Bush with a brown shoe as many times as possible. Scores are displayed on the top left corner of the screen while the time is at the bottom left corner. You will also see Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki peeping over a lectern.




Aside from games, videos have been uploaded all over YouTube. A report indicated that there are around 5000 versions of the video available with more than 10,000,000 views and still growing.
