Sometimes he fondles plastic guitars.

I actually have seven controllers spread over three consoles. That's almost as many real guitars as I own.

How do you keep them from getting . . . sticky?

How do you keep them from getting . . . sticky?

Bag em before you tag em.

Just like dad taught me.

[Wombatwarlord777]

I suppose that also makes clean-up a breeze, right?

[Ngangbius]

So about that Pole's Big Adventure...



This is what happens when you eat a mushroom in a later level and one of the reasons the CERO rating is B.

[Green Gibbon!]

So is it any good, or what?

[Ritz]

You know something's terrbily wrong when GG! isn't sold on sprite erotica.

Am I the only one who immediately thought of Custer's Revenge upon seeing that screen up there?

[Green Gibbon!]

So I downloaded it.

It's not really a parody so much as an extended gag reel. The jokes aren't terribly clever, but it's more interesting actually playing it than watching it in a video or something. The suspsense of wondering what's going to happen next makes for a surprisingly compelling mechanic. It's like eating a bag of Bertie Bott's Jelly Bellies without looking. You know you're probably not going to like what you're going to get, but that's the point.

It's a novel way to kill 40 minutes, but there's no reason in the world to play it twice. Except when you inevitably go down the trick pipe in the last stage and get sent back to world 1-2.

I misspelled "terribly" in that last post.

I don't even care if it's two days late: It was a single sentence in length, and I still fumbled it. How is this even possible? Is my home a fucking carbon monoxide hazard or something? Guys, it was a fun experiment and all, but can we have the edit buttons back now?

[Shadow Hog]

I'd rather like that, yes.
