Pocket Gamer: By nature, internet memes are fleeting. Three million YouTube video views one month can be forgotten the next.
It makes a shaky foundation for a game, even when the video in question - the Trucker's Delight track from French electro knob twiddlers Flairs - is heavily influenced by gaming culture. There are bits of Out Run, International Track & Field and a touch of Mario's DNA all here.
