Suprisingly there don't seem to have an article concerning Mass Effect 3,Dragon Age 2 or Hamburger Helper.Maybe we should sent them an e-mail informing them and wait for the lulz?

And yeah, the entire site is a parody - funny nonetheless. ;)

My life was changed forever when mom bought me a copy of Final Fantasy on NES for my birthday... and ruined probably. It was just about when I started doing judo, and it warped my interests towards this game and this game alone. Probably the turning point of my existence. Today I'm here.

It also took hours of playtime before I learned what "equipping" items was. I thought the first few bosses were impossibly hard too.

My gaming tastes were partly defined after I gained my first CRPG as a gift shortly after gaining my first PC, when I was 10 years old. The game was Betrayal at Krondor, the first CRPG I played.

I pity those who had Final Faggotry instead.

:M

Let me come out with it now: my favorite Final Fantasy characters tend to be the classic cheerful and energetic archetype, like Aeris, Selphie, and Vanille. It’s usually because I bring a lot of myself into games, and want to relate to someone in a fantasy world. Before I really looked into gender studies, I didn’t realize how problematic these characters were in respect to women’s portrayal in games overall. While I have that perspective now, I still look back at my connection to them with fondness. It wasn’t until recent conversation with peers that I tested my defense of these women; their reception is mostly negative or dismissive because they are seen as hyperactive and hyper-feminine, perceived to serve the very narrow interests of hegemony.
I have no words.

First games i had on the pc (had a amiga before), was a pirate cd full of all the sierra, dynamix, cocktel arts games.

Needless to say, the overload of awesome left me marked forever.

It took a while before my father forked over 3000$ for a computer.

Same. Battle Bugs, Betrayal at Krondor and Goblins adventure games (all from these three devs) are some of the very first pc games that I remember playing. And also pirated! :troll:

Conquests of the Longbow, gabriel knight, quest for glory I-IV, laura bow 1-2 etc.
It had all the dynamix adventures as well as Betrayal at krondor.
Goblins, even Inca.

Goddamn that cd almost ruined my life - it lasted years.

Instead of acting butthurt over the interwebs, Gabe simply...

And this, not his lack of vagina, is why Gabe won't ever be in the center of a shitstorm like the one engulfing Hamburglar Herpler.

For this I promise I will buy HL3 even though I didn't particularly like most of HL2 or its expansions. In fact I'll go to my finance planner right now and plan to keep $60 ready for 2015.

Testimonial time, huh?

I played adventure games almost exclusively in the early 90's. Sierra, Lucasarts, and everything else I could get my hands on. Then those Myst clones and FMV games started coming out and I ran to RPGs as the genre crashed.
I got into Ultima around 1995 or so. Dabbled with it for a couple of years and joined the UDIC. But it was Baldur's Gate that solidified my status as an RPG fanatic. (I unfortunately missed the Fallout craze that preceded it)
