Friday Flash Fun: Play a Missile Command clone in a somewhat-hidden section of Ryan Adams' redesigned web site.
(So this is why he released so many albums last year...)
Man, tough game! And I played it on soft! Yeesh, I always sucked at Missile Command. The music is annoying but catchy, nice find!

They do have the same birthday, according to the Trivia section of that Wiki page, but requesting a Bryan Adams song at a Ryan Adams show isn't recommended.

That's a cool little game, thanks! It is a lot easier with the mouse, I will have to see how well I do this evening kicking it old-skool with my trackball at home.

Man, that's too easy. I got to level 15 and just got bored.

Ryan Adams does not find your joke amusing, dr_dank.

Yeah, fairly easy. 12,648 points for me!
(I got a bunch of points for not using my megascuds; I had over 100 by the end... but then, I didn't read the instructions so I had no idea how to use them)

Funny thing is, the game got a lot easier once I only had one base to defend.
Ryan Adams is teaching children to be lazy.

Man, if Ryan Adams had died after he released Heartbreaker, he'd have been looked on as a genius. Instead, he's a hack.

Had no idea how to use the stupid mega-scuds until I read the directions. Then I won the game in about 10 minutes with a total score of a bit more than 111000 points (level 20). Not nearly as fun as Chaos Theory.
