yuppicide Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I posted it here rather than arcade forum since it would get more attention here.. and it's kind of 2600 related: http://shirt.woot.com/shirts/cave-invaders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gigabyte Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I don't get it. Why would a caveman draw space invaders? Okay, I kind of get it: Indiana Jones, Egyptians, and all the other supposed cave drawings of Aliens. But is this meant to be the moment of inspiration for Space Invaders? That guy looks American, and the only way this makes sense is if it is a Japanese Cave, but nothing differentiates it from a European cave... Is it 2010 in the picture? Some explorer discovers that Cavemen actually had knowledge of Space Invaders? But the game is so popular, my first thought was that those drawings weren't done by Cave People-- clearly it's just graffiti. Why look surprised at the graffiti? There is no other evidence of Cave People living there... If this shirt took place inside a pyramid or something maybe it would make more sense, provided the space invaders were drawn in an Egyptian style.

I think you're overanalyzing it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
