Yes, you read that headline right: This kid plays Guitar Hero: World Tour on Expert difficulty while solving two Rubik’s Cubes at the same time.
Now, keep in mind that I am a career journalist. Writing is my job. So when I say “I have no words,” that is because my mind has been completely blown. If I had been wearing socks today instead of sandals, they would have been thoroughly knocked off.
Playing Guitar Hero – in this case, Ozzy Osbourne’s “Mr. Crowley” – on Expert is a skill in and of itself. Being able to solve Rubik’s Cubes in just over a minute with a single hand is certainly a skill in and of itself.
Now, imagine that you’re strumming the guitar controller with your elbow. And you’re playing the game by looking in a mirror. And you’re dividing your attention between Cube and Hero simultaneously. Can you really blame the kid for only hitting 77% of the notes?
My mind is blown. I think that means it’s officially weekend time.
