    ... my favourite 2D Sonic is still Sonic 2, so I'm kind of an oddball.

    Nope. That's the view of sanity and good taste. I'm slightly more in the oddball territory in that to myself the original 2D Sonic will always be the best. The true oddballs are those who rate any of the Sonic games after "Sonic CD" as their favoured entry.

    I'm sure there's some lunatic who claims that "Sonic Unleashed" is the greatest game in the franchise but they're either under 13 years of age or a mentally retarded, festering cabbage. By the way, that's been scientifically proven by a team composed of the greatest minds of the 21st Century and a chipmunk telepathically channelling the genius mind of Albert Einstein, so don't go accusing me of being bias, elitist or any other such hogwash of that sort.

    It's getting worse and spreading , I love you guys. If I don't make it all that I ask is that I'm remembered, even if not in a positive light, just that I had a place here and a purpose. Even if you never liked me, I just ask that I'm remembered as part of humanity and that you accept that we were'nt all that different and far apart after all. I just want you to realize that bit of humanity, love and compassion in yourself.

    They don't know what's wrong and it's getting worse and my famiyl won't pay the bill for a ER trip and the doctors don't know wht's wrong, no one takes it seriously.

    I love you guys, if I don't make it, I just want you all to know that even if we had our differences we still came together, we still shared things with one another. That's what counts.

    Fun Fact: Green is my favorite color.

    It is clearly meant to be. Time to start a petition to get the moderator name color changed to green.

    Also, green is my favorite color as well. Black is my favorite absence of color.

    GOG.com is about to start a livestreamed conference that may reveal LucasArts as a new partner(either that or EA). Stream will start in a few minutes, here: http://www.gog.com/en/news/cdp_summer_conference_watch_it_live

    Whenever your post count drops like this, it's because someone accidentally moved Whatever back into the main forums via a merge, which didn't restore your post count from this thread, and then moved the thread back into Forum Games manually, which basically subtracted your posts in this thread a second time. I have an idea that might at least get our post counts close to where they should be, but they won't be right again until Jake has the forum re-tally them.

    I've been watching and it sounds as though GOG haven't signed up LucasArts. They've gone with EA instead. :(

    I'm not sure but I think I spy some 360 games and some anime novels on the shelf.

    Also, the tissues next to the bed are a nice touch. :eek:

    Yeah, there's some manga on the shelf, but I don't own a 360 and all my games are on a shelf on the opposite wall anyway.

    (The second shelf down is mine, the third shelf down is unwillingly borrowed.)

    GOG did not get LucasArts. The company was EA. And neither System Shock nor Syndicate is part of the deal.

    Yeah, I figured it was something like that, but I didn't see any merge that would have triggered it. Hence the confusion.

    Though, as a side note, I will reiterate that a negative post count would be really cool. It would be like a documentation of how I have not contributed to this forum.

    Dawww I wanna give her a hug.
    But I wouldn't want to keep her though. I'm just a cat person. I really am.
    (If I could have any pet. It would have to be a cat. Like a Maine Coon or a Turkish Van. Beautiful creatures, pretty easy to look after. Lovable, hugable don't get too big to be a hindrance (same as small dogs to an extent))

    Love my Merlin. <3

    marmite.gif

    A by product of beer brewing.
    Some people like it, some hate it.

    People tend to have it on toast.

    Like me at this very moment. I practically live off the stuff. It's also really nice on cheap budget cheese and tomato pizzas.

    I spent this afternoon re-arranging the lounge furniture (moving it all into the conservatory) ready for our new suite to be delivered tomorrow. Only to recieve a phone call telling us it'll be a week late. Ugh! Well, I guess It's tired me out a bit, so hopefully it'll clear my mild insomnia. I still need to talk to someone about walking up a hill though. Meh.

    I do appreciate a good tissue. I have a box of tissues by my bed, two travel packs of Kleenex in my bag, and a couple of folded tissues in my pockets at any given time. If I had a car, I'd keep some tissues in the glovebox too. I use them as bookmarks, dispense them like little gifts to crying folk, and use them to clean spilled beer off pub tables. One day I might tear some up to use as confetti at an impromptu wedding. On the whole, I really like tissues.

    Why is no one cuddling her?? She's so small and cute you'd have to prise her from my vice-like grasp. I like puppies almost as much as I like tissues. They're just as good to give to crying folk in distress, and do a decent job of cleaning spilled beer, although they're not so good to tear up and toss at newly married couples.

    What kind of dog is she?

    I've tried both Vegemite and Marmite. And both of them taste absolutely arse. I occasionally try one of them again because I literally cannot believe how disgusting they are and think maybe I've been wrong all those times before. Nope.

    So yeah, the intricate nuance of flavour between them is usually lost on me while I'm going GACKHACKACKARGH.

    GACKHACKACKARGH, eh? Is that on a five ARGH scale or a ten ARGH one? :p

    Also, being a filthy American, it's fun to get people to try Vegemite, since most haven't. Best description yet: "It tastes like raw aspirin covered in salt!"

    Reading Ultima Underworld manual stuff.

    Should print off a map. I always forget to do it.
    Always get lost and overwhelmed by these games.
    (Never played games like this as a kid)

    Seems to be pretty good though.
    But will it outdo Might and Magic?

    That's adorable. Following that series of touching Kleenex moments I'm certainly not going to delve into the details of why I keep a box of handy tissues next to my bed. Suffice to say, it's a particular "Kleenex moment" that would surely fail to materialise on the Kleenex television adverts.
