Different Versions of Whack the Penguin or "Smack the Pingu"
OK, since no one else appears to have done it and since it's creating hell on a few message boards I visit regularly, I've decided to make a compilation of all the versions of Whack the Penguin I've come across.
So here goes: The Original Version: Goes a little above 320.Slightly Modified Version: Penguin goes far, but not that far--about 530. Still within the "realistic" zone.Another Modified Version: Still not sure if this is any different from the one listed above.The "Parphenos" Version: Goes over 1000. Modifier uses a bit more creativity by adding more signposts.Absurdly Far Version: Whacks go well into the 3000 range. The only version in which it's apparently better to hit a nose dive than a skid."Rocket Up the Arse" Version: Sent by "Jonny". Definitely the most...interesting version I've seen so far. Apparently it's what Whack the Penguin would be like on the moon. I made my first hit just a minute ago and--folks, forget the Energizer bunny--it's still going. Update: 8151.4. And I'm sure it goes much farther than that.Yeti Sports: Definitely my current pick for best version. Almost a complete makeover--newer graphics, everything. Can download it, play it online, enter your name, register your high score, among other things. Here's the main site. Even has desktop wallpaper.The Blood and Guts and Landmines Version: The "Rocket Up the Arse" version is no longer the most "interesting" version--this one wins it by a long shot. Also, it's definitely the version not to play if you have a weak stomach. The Yeti now has a massive club, which shreds the penguins into small bits. But the head flies on! And if you land on a landmine, the head goes even farther. I've always sneered at those "animal rights" spoofs that show the penguins ganging up on the Yeti since, in the normal version, the Penguin is quite obviously a willing participant. It's "fun" for him. But in this version the Greenpeacers might have something going for them. Heh. Thanks to Dave Bug from GeekLife.Com.Update (2-15): Yeti Sports has another version of "Whack the Penguin" out, which you can play here. It's certainly a little more complex than the previous version, but somehow it doesn't seem as fun.Enjoy.
Yeti Sports is pretty damned good.

Didn't really like the one that went on and on myself. It's a bit boring, but the rest of them are ok :)
