So when the SNES came out there were a lot of great games for it. One that came out and didn't get the attention it deserved was a game called Plok!

It is a platforming game where you shoot your limbs to destroy enimies and also use them to solve puzzles. Oh and it came out way before Rayman.

    They have some cool things, retsupurae being my favorite.

    They also have a pretty good LP community.

    Definately, even the guys who do retsupurae have done some really fun lets plays. Diabeetus and slowbeefs dead to rights lets play was hilarious.

    Sotar have you seen Gilders LP of Plok?

    If that woman's cleavedge made one more person pick the game up off the shelf, it was a net positive for microprose. And to be blunt, if taking her top off could have increased sales enough to get a sequel, I'd endorse it 100000% because I like playing great games.

    Plok was a fucking awesome game. Such a great range of temporary powerups too. There was a gift package that would turn you into an Elmer Fudd style hunter with a spreadshot gun.

    How do you get blue eyeshadow to show through an amber visor?

    I am comforted by Richard Dawkins’ theory of memes. Those are mental units: thoughts, ideas, gestures, notions, songs, beliefs, rhymes, ideals, teachings, sayings, phrases, clichés that move from mind to mind as genes move from body to body. After a lifetime of writing, teaching, broadcasting and telling too many jokes, I will leave behind more memes than many. They will all also eventually die, but so it goes. - Roger Ebert, I Do Not Fear Death

    My favorite piece of music on a SNES game is the Plocky theme. He turns into a boxer and it is fantastic

    Probably because google video did some database clean up. Its why slowbeef moved a lot of videos to youtube.

    No really. Amber filters out blue light. That's the point. There's no color of eyeshadow that would appear sky blue under an amber visor.

    Also, why does the blush end right at the lowest edge of the visor?

    That's just some lazy Photoshopping right there.

    Seriously: everyone here should bake something tonight, or have a roommate/loved one bake something. Even if you're not going to eat it. Smells divine.

    WHAT DID YOU DO TO WEDGE?

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
  • FeralFeral Who needs a medical license when you've got style? Registered User regular
    Maybe he very carefully applied blue pastel to the exterior of his visor in just the right location so if he looked through it at a particular angle it appeared as if he were wearing eyeshadow.

    Wedge could do that.

    Because Wedge is awesome.

    The most terrifying part of course being Gary Busey as a psychologist. I'm telling you if I walked in for therapy and Busey was there, I'd walk right out and figure I was cured.

    He was such a lower level of crazy. Like a crazy uncle rather then a crazy homeless uncle.

    LPs are my number one I have nothing else to do timesink. I could talk about them all day. But I won't, because that would be nerdy and probably very annoying,

    Damn it, it's fucking noon. I demand to know if Yami shit on a desk yet.
