So the last time I posted something anywhere on the Escapist was ... 30 Apr 2011, at 6:15 am. I just went through the rigmarole of password recovery and the like to say this: That Bob didn't like this film is in of itself immaterial, many things he dislikes I end up enjoying and vice...

Something a bit slower and understated I think, I'm not trying to be flashy here.

The most powerful car I have ever driven was my friends RX-8 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RX-8] once when he was really tired and didn't feel up to driving home. I can't say I enjoyed the experience considering that I completely hate driving other peoples cars and was...

When I was a kid in about the early to mid nineties there was a TV show about a scientist or engineer or whatever who was paralyzed from the waist down and wheelchair bound, so he ends up inventing some sort of machine-to-nerve interface technology that allows him to build a mechanical suit to...

It's a visual spectacle, that's for damn sure and I wouldn't bother to see it for anything else. For as badly written as the movie is I could have glossed over that if it was only badly written and not also irredeemably racist. [http://www.atomicnerds.com/?p=3460]* Yes, I said it, I went...

Actually, now that I've settled down a bit and given the issue a good think I have an idea.

Scientist. Specifically one who's a nuclear engineer and a "lower-case 'l' " libertarian so he can fix this climate change bullshit and the economy right quick.

Hm. The game looks intriguing and I'm fairly certain I'll enjoy it. Having said that the problem I have isn't that it is another game with a post-apocalyptic setting. No, my problem is that it is another game with a post-apocalyptic setting that's fucking brown. If something was to kill...

Oh God. No no NO. ...I can see them doing something that ham-fisted and lame at the rate they're going. This idea is going to haunt my dreams. Damn you.

I don't mind them as long as I can hit skip and go past them. In my player certain DVDs won't let me do it which pisses me off. Even worse are the few where they though it would be a good idea to put on five minutes of trailers, and I can't skip the damn things. ----- To actually...

So says you, different strokes and all of that I guess. All alcohol tastes like foul firewater to me, so the entire point of Jello shots is that it renders it into a sweet, fruity and easily devoured form. Vodka is cheap and strong, I personally don't know why you'd bother to make JELLO...

For my idea of a near-perfect TV nerdgasm: Babylon 5 meets Battlestar Galactica.

Yes, I understand that. The point I was trying to make is that a game once-in-hand has to be really putrid before I'll absolutely refuse to play it, so once a copy of Too Human is within my ownership it is going to get played.

Well of course they would be. What else would I make them out of? Rum? Vermouth? BOURBON!?! Madness!

As a hopeless mutant who actually played Two Worlds all the way through and even got EVERY SINGLE 360 achievement for it (So I am no stranger to awful games.) then let me say that if they are willing to give me the entire game for free then I'll probably play it out of spite and masochism if...
