Edmund McMillen of Team Meat sent us some intriguing images this morning. They're the very first screenshots released from Super Meat Boy showing the Xbox Live Arcade exclusive level, "teh internets."
The image above, of course, is a reference to the classic platform game Bubble Bobble. The smiling face in the green orb (moon? planet?) looks like something I've seen on the internet, though I'd be hard pressed to find it on my own and have no idea what it means. I can't even begin to guess what's going on in the third shot. Perhaps you lot can help me figure it out.
Super Meat Boy is scheduled to release for Xbox Live Arcade on October 20th.

Ahem.
This looks like an incredible value for Xbox 360 gamers. Once again, we witness the strength of a premium service like Xbox Live.
Haha. Well, i don't think i sound like that, do i?
I didn't know what it was either. Then again, I haven't visited 4chan since I was in college, and that was a long, long time ago.
No, you don't really sound like that. Try as I might, I can't mimic your greatness :)
Thanks i guess.. haha

"Well i guess the Dead Space 2 deal is a good one for the PS3 owners like myself. But like i said, these 360 exclusivity deprives gamers"
They've stated that PC is getting a level editor and that the Wii will also be getting some exclusive content to make up for the fact that they had to compress the Wii version a lot.
Am...am I the only one seeing this?
