Given the recent outbreak of swine flu, could an online swine flu game - perhaps several - be far behind?
Of course not.
The first to emerge is Swinefighter, a game which challenges the player to inoculate as may pigs as possible under the pressure of a time limit. The game's - ahem - viral spread is being helped along by a direct link to Twitter.

Andrew Eisen: To be fair, I don't think that's what he was facepalming and if he was, that would still be three. MP's would make it four, but that happened after the fact. The rest of the posts are about us commenting on his repeated misuse, not the misuse itself.02/08/2012 - 10:34pm

DorthLous: And, you guys, always take about 4-5 posts to explain it in the shoutbox each time. It's like people complaining about reposts or "First!" posters. Just ignore the annoying part, guys.02/08/2012 - 8:51pm

Andrew Eisen: If you have to ask, maybe you should consider breaking your annoying habit of prefixing nearly every story you link to with an all caps "breaking" or "urgent." Especially when it's only ever been appropriate twice.02/08/2012 - 5:37pm

Go play Pandemic 2 instead... you can KILL everyone with swine flu, instead of just protecting them from it.

All the victims so far have been Mexican. So, unless the game paints them as evil and terrorists, they're not gonna complain.
