[B]Sometimes imitation is the sincerest form of oh-my-god-that's-cool.[/B] Such is the case with [URL=http://www.doctoroctoroc.com/8-bit-dr-horrible/]Doctor Horrible's Singalong Game[/URL], a complete 8-bit translation of the first act of Joss Whedon's tale of a not-quite-up-and-coming mad scientist in love.

It's actually much more than just an 8-bit version of the musical, though. [URL=http://www.doctoroctoroc.com/]DoctorOctoroc[/URL], in his infinite Rocking Ray wisdom, has re-imagined the Emmy award winning musical short as an oldschool NES RPG, complete with dialog menus, inventory windows and bit-mapped cutscenes.

Only the first act is available for now, but it's more than enough. You can also download the soundtrack for free, as well as [URL=http://www.doctoroctoroc.com/]Octoroc's[/URL] first project [URL=http://www.doctoroctoroc.com/8BitJesus]"8-bit Jesus"[/URL].
