Do not be frightened. We are powerful creatures, yes, but we could not hurt you anymore than we could squish the helpless Pootworm.

We love the Pootworm.

We are one with the Pootworm.

We are one with you.

Of course you realize that this means you are one with the Pootworm.

Rejoice!! To be one with the Pootworm is to be alive, and why not be alive?

Is that not what living is for?

The pootworm sounds like something that comes out of your bum.

And you are one with it!

You will be ecstatic to learn that what you are thinking of is the pinworm, a friendly little worm that sneaks out by way of the rectum at night to lay about the anal sphincter thousands of eggs coated in an itchy substance. As the saying goes, go to bed with itchy ass, wake up with smelly fingers. Inevitably, those smelly fingers end up in the mouth, replenishing the supply of pinworms in an endless loop.

Yikes. But no, we really do mean the Pootworm, and this is, by the way, the greatest video game ever made.

Pkunk rock!

"Meh."

It's all about the Orz. There's nothing quite like dealing with a superior lifeform that is both playful and poorly translated.

*Happy* campers are best. It is good to *smell* you again.

How did you escape the slave shield, human? ...Or are you a rogue?

Star Control II was one of the best games ever made.

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

"one of"?

[sbloyd.livejournal.com]

Gotta put MoO 2 up there. Just as good, for completely different reasons, IMHO.

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

Moo2 wasn't as good as Moo1. It had a lot of things going for it, but it simply lacked the same *scale*.

The greatest games of all time are, easily,
1) Star Control 2
2) System Shock
3) The Ancient Art Of War At Sea
4) Supreme Commander
5) There Is No 5.

Agreed. All I need fifty floppies and computer slow enough to run it and I'll be happy again.

Did you not notice that I linked the *current, playable, complete* game, for WinXP/Vista/Win7/MacOS/Linux/BuildFromC++Source?

You can, right now, play Star Control II on your current PC. And it is still the greatest game of all time.

(Download the remixed-music packs!)

For me it needs to be the complete package:

Running on an incredibly slow computer.
Having to switch out the floppy disks.
Having to find the challenge word in the manual as prompted by the program.
My little brother complaining that I've been on the computer too long and now its his turn.
and maybe a spare complaint from my step father saying I've ruined the family computer with these damn games.

DISOBEDIENCE WILL BE PUNISHED.

Dodo.

Jerk.

[hypatiasghost.livejournal.com]

FUCK. YEAH.

And it includes the 3d0 voices, some of which are absolutely wonderful. The Yehat having Irish accents? PERFECT!
