That would be phenomenal, but I imagine it’s unlikely.
However, if we’re in the realm of unlikely scenarios, maybe they can give me a follow-up to Xcom: Enemy Within that proceeds from an Xcom victory in the first game. I never got into Xcom 2 because it ignored the buildup to the greater enemy foreshadowed at the end of Enemy Within. Not knocking those who liked what we got…it just didn’t work for me.

I miss Looney Tunes so much.

I mean, a rocket will get you past the sky, so…

Nah, dude. Just wait until the deceased field gets oversaturated. All the hordes of people wandering pointlessly, everybody trampling over everyone else trying to eat the organs of the living…it’s a dead end job that’ll get worse with time.
- Comment on What are your favorite Dreamcast games? 1 month ago:
Loved this game.
Fun fact, the two lead characters showed up again as soldiers in Valkyria Chronicles.

I remember the term for the fascists in Sinclair Lewis’s It Can’t Happen Here were corporatists. That novel was contemporaneous with the rise of fascism as I recall, and it’s a chilling look at how America might have gone fascist back then. It’s pretty relevant to what’s happening now.

I liked Google+, mostly because it wasn’t Facebook, I guess.
- Comment on Free Free Stars: The Ur-Quan Masters on Steam 2 months ago:
This game rocks. I love the fact that I’ve got a home brew version on my Wii of all things. Getting it back on the PC, though…I used to be able to do crazy crap with the Arilou Skiff using the keyboard controls. Never felt the the same with a controller or a touch screen.

They’re in the studio working on the soundtrack, of course.
- Comment on I had some that looked exactly like this 3 months ago:
Does anybody remember the way the floors had a springiness to them and how they squeaked and creaked as you walked across them?
How about the mental kind of threshold-looking strip in the middle of the floor from wall to wall where I believe they had connected two halves together, if I recall?

I was searching the thread to see if everyone called them that or if it was regional.
- Comment on Venus by Tuesday 3 months ago:
Yeah, but the changes to weather patterns will vary from location to location, right?
This is what I mean:
Warming is already occurring in all areas of the globe, but models of future temperatures show that the changes will not be distributed equally. Polar regions and land areas are expected to see the largest temperature changes.

Is there any resource for forecasting what will likely occur in a given area? I don’t see how we can stop climate change now, so I want to prepare my family for it.
- Comment on My Dreamcast Setup 4 months ago:
I’m sorry I ever let mine go. It was a great emulation platform, and I ran all kinds of retro games on it. I also miss Skies of Arcadia, which I’ve always felt was underrated.
- Comment on What a bargain! 4 months ago:
I read the “your” as singular at first, raising the troubling specter of people having their multiple asses cleaned. If it weren’t for an ancient South Park reference with Dr. Mephisto’s multi-assed mutants, I think I’d be worried about how my mind works. Maybe I should be, anyway.
