Peer Pressure Works!

This bad boy’s so epic that there is no good way to embed it here and still have it readable. Click that shit and educate yo’selves! And along the theme of giant visual media, here’s a Classic PC Gaming poster. Every single one of these cartoon images is based on a game. Look at it…or don’t! Holy shit, free will!

Or something. I suck at titles…fuck off! So, what’s happened now is that the only three human players still in the game are myself, Orange and Yellow. Everyone else has passed to AI control. The AI doesn’t expand, but they do invest in one or two stars, so by the time you get to them, those two stars have 60+ ships. The way combat works is that the defender goes first. So the defender is [...]

Already grasping for title straws…this does not bode well. So, an interesting turn today! Here’s the map. Really, that doesn’t tell much. However, the message I received earlier today does. Orange…good ol’ Orange…sent me a note. It seems that Yellow has attacked him with, in his words, ‘sizable forces’. He’s wondering if I can render assistance. He also wants Weapons tech. I explained that I’m not in position to attack in the South for the [...]

Totally counts as a unique title if I’m using it as a reference to a group of lions. The sit-rep! If you think it looks like I’m getting close to Dark Blue, you’re incredibly right…I just took one of his stars from him. It was lightly defended, and I snagged it from his underdeveloped ass. Actually, the star North of that (over in his Eastern flank) is weak, too. That worries me, because I’m guessing [...]

The continuing adventures of Cliff flailing around in space and trying desperately not to be the first bastard to die! Let’s take a look at the map, which isn’t really markedly different from last time. Dark blue, now under AI control, is expanding East. Shit. Hopefully it’s expanding stupidly and not defending itself. Purple hasn’t actually moved in on me, I’ve just moved right up against it. I think shit’s about to get real in [...]

And with a title like that, still whiter than a motherfucker. Oh, Purple, Dark Blue and Green are now under AI control. I don’t know if the AI is good or not. If it is, I’m probably screwed. Aside from that, not a ton has changed from the last turn. I’ve discovered that those Northern stars are big on resources. I’m not moving in any closer to Purple, simply because he provides a barrier against [...]

Cliff still terrible of pulling together post titles. So, I realized today that I’m in serious fucking trouble…more so than yesterday. See, the map scrolls. I sort of forgot about that. So, there is another player NORTH of the Purple player who I had completely forgotten about. These 2 screenies will lay out the entire situation. In a word, fuck. Also, I can’t help but notice that Orange, the one who ‘felt my pain’ is [...]

So, after yesterday night’s “Hey, look at this ridiculous Flash stuff!” post, I figured that I should post about an actually interesting game. But what? But what indeed. Neptune’s Pride. “Wow, what’s that?” you ask, no doubt with a bit of trepidation in your voice, half expecting me to start extolling the virtues of a mermaid simulation with funky 70’s pimp funk. And my response is “What, you’re too damn lazy to follow the link [...]

No, I’m not making this up. Possibly the girliest side scrolling game ending up in headless unicorns EVER MADE. Also, possibly the greatest game until Jesus : the Game comes to wonderful, wonderful life (whoever makes it has to be named Lazarus Inc.). http://games.adultswim.com/robot-unicorn-attack-twitchy-online-game.html Oh, did I mention the cheezy 80’s dancehall music? GLORIOUS. Heh…the spellchecker wanted me to change girliest to grisliest. Awesome.
