A brief rant
Okay, so no flashy screen captures for me tonight, I just wanted to point some things out about our friends at a website that rhymes with bananamazon.com:
1) Grim Fandango and Curse of Monkey Island are both available in the Outlet section for $9.99. Given the discussion recently, I thought I’d point it out. I suppose that means you could find them in your local gaming retailer, but then you’d have to go outside. Remember, the Tofu mask and spicy nacho cheese are key.
2) Halo is listed in the FPS: sci-fi, FPS: military/history, Adventure, and Strategy categories of PC games. The first three I’ll believe, but Strategy?! Here, try this strategy: don’t get killed by nobody. Or you could try my alternate strategy: kill everyone. You can feel the global strategic implications already, can’t you? They should put it in Simulations, because it’s not like you’re actually killing aliens and saving the universe - just simulating it. Or they could put it in Sports and Outdoors, because let’s face it: Master Chief does go outdoors - it’s not like he’s driving that tank around the living room. bananamazon.com needs to stop pushing Halo like it’s crack, and start pushing Halo like it’s something that fewer people do, like ketamine.
Yep, that’s what think.
