*** If you are the kind of gamer that seeks extreme challenges and
strives to prove your skill, Super Meat Boy is the platformer for you ***

+ Controls are easy to learn, hard to master
+ Good pacing of difficulty and introduction of new obstacles
+ Unlimited lives and swift respawns keeps you right in the action
+ Super satisfying when you beat levels
+ Awesome soundtrack

- Initially, the controls feel very slippery, but once you get used to them you'll fly around the screen with ease
- Depending on your patience, tenacity, and temperament, you may need to put the controller down for a while if you get too frustrated ;)

It took me 16,860 deaths to 100% this game and earn all of its achievements. IT WAS WORTH IT!
I enjoyed myself the whole time (the whole time I was not raging that is...)
