On December 15, cosplayer and light gun arcade game master Eddie Esguerra went viral on social media. DC Comics editor Andi Khouri Sent his video takes two shots in the middle Time Problem 2 like you're an anime character by. Video, in which Esguerra burglarized as a boxer and wraps his hands like an experienced rifle racked up 1.7 million views.
It was not the first time Esguerra's unique style of play Time Problem was captured on video and then blown up. Last April he saw it crumble at the same Los Angeles restaurant called Button Mash. YouTube is full again short, anonymous clips of Esguerra working in the field in various sensitive areas. What is most impressive about his dance technique is not how complex or fluid it is, but the fact that its high score section goes through a challenging series of plays. It's almost as if he is taunting the arcade machine for not being able to keep working.

"I never really thought about or planned the setting for my interview, Esguerra said Kotaku in the email "I encouraged you later." The foundations made it difficult to get around so much during a very intense firefight, so he had to try and add some extra flair elsewhere. “Yes the end of the first video on top of the train when I push the blue foes that multiply so often I do that only if that's the last level enemy and I can drop it with one shot, and if I have enough time. If the enemy was close enough, I would turn my head to the right or to the left and shoot the enemy as if it were not shooting. ”
Most of the time only one character works at a time, depending on how much danger he faces. If he feels a bit of courage he will press two holes to expose the players' characters without a cover and fully slip. And when both characters die, you'll start from the beginning.
Esguerra was at the Mirage Casino in Las Vegas for the first time where he set his eyes Time Problem. About five years old in the mid-90s, his family decided to take him to the casino arcade during one annual break.
"Someone I know added a quarter to me," Esguerra said. “I have to play the first season of the Season and I'm sure I was dead in the first place. It was hard for me, but it was fun, and I've been playing every year ever since. ”
It wasn't until 20 years later in the early stages that he began to refine the game. While studying at Los Angeles Community College, Esguerra discovered that there was a family game across the street that he owned Time Problem and a bunch of other simple gun games. "After class I spent hours playing Time Callen, House of the Dead, Scope Scope and 911 police," he said. While known by Time Problem 2
“I think people like watching me play because they've never seen someone with a wire Time Problem, ”Said Esguerra. “When people come to me they often say they never thought Time Problem you may have been hit twice or you may have been hit with one debt on the side. Many people have sinned Time Problem machines at the same time. Some even collected a death coin a few times. But few ever see how the games end. Esguerra thinks it's part of what makes her performance so special.
“I do because it is very fun and clear to me,” she said. "I enjoy the challenge … and I like to watch people's reactions, especially when their jaws drop."
