    Not for me. Mixed reviews, too many cosmetics, too-cutesy visual
    style, not really the sort of game I enjoy and even Steam is going,
    "WTF, this game really isn't your style, why you even here?". So I
    think I'll pass.

    (I'll make it up to The Number later. The wishlist has been needing a trimming. It's getting almost as long as my list of unplayed games ;-)

    Thanks for the heads up anyway.

    I took it just in case. Yeah, I doubt I will play it. ;)

    What, no fancy chair with whirly-gig spinning contraption mounted on

    I'd at least DEMAND an appearance from the WABAC, given this is a computer-related newsgroup.

    Components of the WABAC were used in merging the Hot Tub to the DeLorean
    so we can go back to rescue the guy on the spinning whirligig.

    That better? :P

    What about the good old fashioned severe blow to the head?  Although
    that was 4 years after the whirly-gig book.

    Not reliable and the lack of destination control makes it unfeasible
    even on the extremely rare occasions it works at all.
