Gates vs. Brin - Search Engine Smackdown

Have you ever wanted to be one of the Google founders, Larry or Sergey or maybe Bill Gates? If the answer is yes, this interesting game is the perfect solution for your need. Pronet Advertising designed an interesting flash to imagine a search engine smackdown between Google, Yahoo and Microsoft. The battle is based on some trivia questions with your own answers that can cause an amazing wrestling hit for the opponent. Just after the beginning, you are required to choose from 6 characters: Larry and Sergery (Google founders), Bill and Paul (Microsoft founders) and Jerry and David (Yahoo founders).

"Bored? Be bored no more because we have created a video game that will keep you entertained and teach you about the search industry. Search Engine Smackdown is a fun game where you can be the Google founders (Larry & Sergey), Yahoo founders (Jerry & David), or Microsoft founders (Bill & Paul) and duke it out with each other in a wrestling ring with Danny Sullivan," Pronet Advertising said in the description of the game.

As I said, the game is actually a flash animation that is based on some trivia questions concerning the search engines provided by the three companies. For example: "Which company was founded in 1975?" allows you to choose from Yahoo and Microsoft. Of course you'll have to give the answer in no more than 9 seconds so, if you plan to search the Internet for the correct answer, you can't do this. Every character has a health bar that is reduced every time it receives a hit so, the last founder that survives, wins the battle. The highscores are quite impressive, the first position being assigned by telendro with 42 seconds. So, give it a try!
