Science has not told us whether notoriously hard video game Super Meat Boy is tougher than notoriously hard N+. So we must rely on a second-best method.
MTV Multiplayerâs Russ Frushtick has studied the two gameâs Xbox Live Arcade statistics for both side-scrolling, curse-inducing games and declared Super Meat Boy as the more rigorous experience.
He has four metrics of comparison. Such as:
N+: Percent of Total Registered Users Who Have Completed The Final Level (Episode 49) â 2.20%
vs
Super Meat By: Percent of Total Registered Users Who Have Completed The Final Level (7-20X) â 1.04%
Do the laws of mathematics allow me to hereby declare Super Meat Boy as twice as tough as N+?
