    A game says f*** you

    It's never a problem until you have the 2 Scrakes and the 2 Fleshpounds. And all you have is a chainsaw and no teammates. I actually got out of that one, but barely. Yeah. Killing Floor is really unforgiving.

    Your favorite author?

    Hell. Yes. Unfortunately for me, David Eddings is actually second in my favorite authors list; the leader is Terry Pratchett for his Discworld series. Kind of like literary Monty Python, but he usually does have an underlying meaning in his books. If you like laughing and thinking while you...

    Who are you trying to impress?

    Right now? Trying to impress the internet. It's not going well.

    What's the latest manly stuff you've been up to.

    Climbing, running, jumping on freight cars for 8 hours at my job. Also running about a mile in steel-toed boots, long pants, and safety equipment, while it was 95* (Fahrenheit) out with 80% humidity. Fun times.

    Best Videogame Quote (NO Bioshock)

    "We haven't quite pinned down what this new element is, but it IS aggressive, and it does NOT like the human skeleton." Cave Johnson, Portal 2. Hell, include all 12 minutes of his talking as the best quotes ever.

    Best feeling

    For me, it's being able to control 10,000 horsepower at the tips of your fingers. Or, after it's really cold outside, getting into a warm bed.

    Poll: You wake up with alternate genitalia...

    Win. Pure win. And, that basically sums up everthing that I'd do.

    Help a fellow Escapist by answering two short questions!

    Male, not usually, although there are a few songs that I do like from Sabaton. They have to be epic ones that tell a story, not something like "die, die, die" that you usually get.

    What's the best deal you got on a game?

    Technically, I didn't even buy Just Cause 2 ($7.50) while there was a Steam sale this week. I had my friend buy it for me, and in return, I'll be building him a Halo Sniper Rifle out of wood.

    Anime that flew under the radar... and just plain underrated anime

    Agree wholeheartedly, except instead of being "one of the best", it becomes "the best"!

    If you were a great warrior, what would be your weapon of choice?

    Rico Rodriguez's magical hookshot.

    My Problem With Anime

    HAHA! I had forgetten about that one! Yeah, you REALLY don't want to watch TTGL if you have this problem with anime.

    My Problem With Anime

    Heh. Baccano! has so many well-developed characters that I almost recommend you don't watch it, just because you'll feel sad when it's time to say good-bye. Of course, you'll be missing tons of ass-kicking in Prohibition-Era America, with mafia members, monsters, and people who won't let a...

    Does EVERYBODY on the Escapist Have a Fast Metabolism?

    On religious days where I'm supposed to fast (i.e. Good Friday), I didn't so much fast as forgot to eat. Needless to say, I don't eat much and I don't eat often.

    Poll: Friends Steam accounts got hijacked?

    When one of my friends got hijacked, he was able to contact Steam within an hour of the hijacking. They froze the account and got it back for him. Also, the fake website that had been offering free games tried to hijack several of my friends accounts, and mine as well. At least those attempts...
