RS: I don't get it, what about the Goblins? What can you tell us about their mount?

Blizz: They don't have a mount exactly; they have /piggyback.

Now you see, that would be an astounding idea.

Nice one Wilson, that border between satire and reality gets ever thinner.

Mountain Dew == Cancer killer? Where can I get this stuff in the UK?

 

[raunchysandwich]

I'm becoming addicted to this feature

 

[syndicated44]

At first I was thinking this was kinda dumb but your little articles are growing on me. Especially like the part about the really ultra super special starcraft 2 controller.

 

[Knight Templar]

Why haven't I noticed this before now?

Further reasons for Warcraft Addictions, - Cancer beating energy drinks

 

[Zildjin81]

You have to admit that some people are addicted to games on a dangerous level.

 

[Daedalus1942]

These would make GREAT april fools jokes.

 

[Soulgaunt]

That was very funny, but why does it mention Fallout 3 in the title if it isn't in the article?

 

[hansari]

The article was classy as always

Oh man. Back in the 'good 'ole days' of reliable source, there use to be boobs. At least there were chicks making out. Man... I remember back when (wikipedia quote here). Yeah... things used to be different.

I'm sorry, even if the Dew can cure cancer, I can't stand by it. Not only does it nauseate me to the point where I want to yell at my mom on while on teamspeak about how the phone is for her, but its also just... not Dr Pepper.

RS: I don't get it, what about the Goblins? What can you tell us about their mount?

Blizz: They don't have a mount exactly; they have /piggyback.

I predict a HUGE upswing in the market for those old riding crops.

 

[Razorback0z]

I predict you should have saved this story for April 1, where it would better fit.

Excellent as Always, Seth. Although the prospect of grandpa's being able to teabag and shout 'fag!' is one that I fear will now show up in all of those atrociously humorous nightmares. Ugh...your average macho shooter is one thing, deep inside his power armor, but Grandpa is a totally different fear altogether.

 

[bushwhacker2k]

... :O ...

Wow... This was an interesting read... Mountain Dew cures cancer, Blizzard calls themselves an 'aging relic' and is a money-grubber, Fable 3 will have two well known actresses making out and being addicted to gaming is a good thing.

Well, Blizzard being a money-grubber is pretty duh, but at least they deliver. For the rest, WOW.

 

[CLEVERSLEAZOID]

Am I the only one who failed to find anything about Fallout3 in there? :3

Also, lol at the idea of Wolves riding Boars

 

[kementari]

I don't think I've ever been less impressed with an article on the Escapist. Maybe I just don't "get it", but this sounds like the kind of uninsightful witlessness that you'd find in Maxim. It doesn't even read like Onion-style parody, just someone with a chip on their shoulder.

Don't like games/gamers/game developers/game communities (as is clear from the tone of the article)? Write for something else. It's a big internet.

I just noticed that the phrase "Fallout 3" gets my attention just as much as the word "sex" does.
