Props to oldskoolgamertje and his MSX-focused channel for making me discover this awesome soundtrack.

On December 24,2006 at 8 o'clock in the mourning a young 14 year old boy by the name Scott Jackson was found dead.Doctors couldn't come up with the cause of his death.His mother checked his emails to see if she could figure out what happened.Turns out he was still logged in to myspace.She found out he had gone to sleep after he read and didn't repost a chain letter.if you don't repost this to 6 videos a girl with no face will kill you tonight. Sorry don't wanna die

It really is an amazing game...

Dude,

Everything has an emulator. On a serious note though, you should check out the MSX! It shares in common some NES titles--some were done better, and some were done worse on the MSX.

It's just my opinion, but I think MSX could've supported better games than the NES, but it simply didn't have enough support or something.

Wtf is MSX? does it have an emulator? I'm seriously feeling bad I never heard of this system, game looks fucking awesome, interesting story!
