First there was Alien Vs. Predator.
Then there was Robocop Vs. Terminator.
After which came Marvel Vs. Capcom.
Then we saw Capcom Vs. SNK
 
Now... Bit. Trip Vs. Pixel Junk!
 
A grand tradition.
 
(Also: Captain Video is a character from a fictional children's television show in the -TV or Not TV- episode of the Honeymooners.)

I spent over a year thinking, "Wow, that stairs part really doesn't look that tough. I don't know why they're having so much trouble with it."

Finally booted up Bit.Trip Runner for myself today, and got totally stuck at the same spot. The game is way too unforgiving for my taste, and the rhythm element isn't strong enough. It's just too frustrating having to go back to the beginning every time you screw up, so you don't really ever get any better at the part you were having trouble with. Now, Rhythm Tengoku, on the other hand, I loved to death because it was less about reacting to stuff visually and more about aural reaction. Bit.Trip Runner would be way better if it was more like that.

It'll probably be awhile before I play it again, too. Way too many awesome games to catch up with to spend my time banging my head against a wall trying to master a tiny part in a game I was super hyped for that hates me.
