Two game things my friend can't pronounce:

His way my way (which I believe is the correct way as far as I know)

Der Riese - Dear R-ease-ay Der R-i-za
Deus Ex - Deuce Day-uss
Definitely Day-us and not Dooze/Deuce/Dux/Derz-Err, etc.
I have a slightly different problem with saying Deus Ex, which is, everytime I say it, I'm acutely aware that it sounds like Day Of Sex. So when I'm talking to someone who has no knowledge of it, they are giving me strange looks.
I just call it Deus Sex on purpose anyway, I love it so much.
And on that note, every time I see the URL for the site deusex.com I can't help but wonder what sort of sex deu is.

Reminds me a bit of my opinion about the first game. Ion Storm missed a good opportunity when they didn't name the executable for the game deus.exe.

two diphtongs:

"ie" : ee
"ei" : eye

(EDIT: i.e: "r-ease-eh")
So not : R-ee-as-ay?

Had to post the relevant xkcd:

SNIP
But yeah... Inspector Gadget was a hell of a game. (Hated the movie, though.)

Go and watch the cartoon immeadiately. In which his neice Penny and his dog Brian do all the work and Inspector Gadget causes hilarious interludes with his augments. Also an evil guy pets a cat.

Loved the comic this has been at the back of mind mind the entire time I've been playing. xD Nevermind robocop.

Brian is the dog in "Family Guy", I think you mean Brain :p
Be careful though there is an inspector gadget cartoon made by different people without Don Adams that was pretty awful sauce the little I see of it.
There was also a different He-Man cartoon that wasnt up to much.

Back on topic liked the comic :)

The theme tune is actually pretty awesome as was the cartoon. Inspector Gadget was pretty superfluous to the plot though his neice did all the detective work. I'm surprised Venture Bros hasn't picked up on it yet.

Oops typo xD but yeah Brian would still work pretty well in his place I think :p

I don't think I;ve ever seen a picture of Inspector Gadget looking so depressed it's kind of sad rofl.

I have to admit that I had to read the comments to understand the comic.

For some reason this Critical Miss reminded me that I still have not played through more than the first level of Deus Ex, even though I do own it. Kind of embarassing, really.

Depressed Inspector Gadget looks a bit like Spike Seigel, actually (Cowboy Bebop, if you dont remember).

Brought a smile to my face after a rough day. Props.

PUUUUT ON YOUR TRENCHCOAAAT
AND FIGHT SOME CONSPIRACIEEEEES

Alternative lame meme-filled post:

"Go-go-gadget extend-o-legs!" *bumps into ceiling* "OUCH! I NEVER ASKED FOR THIS"
"Yes you did, I heard you say it just now, Go-go-gadget extend-o-legs!"
"SHUT UP PENNY"

I had no idea where you were going with it. And then I saw Inspector Gadget. Makes perfect sense. Though, that game would be incredibly hard even on easy mode. You'd go to use stealth and a fire hose would come out.
[sub]Is it wrong that I never really cared to watch the actual show?[/sub]

I am acutely aware of how you pronounce the title. Still makes me laugh, though. I still can't look at the title without thinking "Deus Sex". Every. Damn. Time.
