Corky McGee reviews a brick

[Maddziller]

Nah, I'm really not in it to win it. I got an idea for a review and thought the arena would be a pretty good place to experiment with it in. I think my past arena enteries have been a schizophrenic drug-addled note to post-nuclear America, a note home in broken English and a Cartesian dissertation.

Believe me, a monkey has more chance of winning.

Lol, that's very humble of you. I'm looking forward to your review now. I'm still thinking about mine. I know what I'm going to do, but it's an old game and I don't think I own it anymore... Hmmmm... Looks like memory is going to be my saviour here...

I really look forward to judging your reviews.
After reading your review on the brick, I'm especially eager for yours, Joe.

I think I want to marry you...

The real question is, is there any DLC planned for the Haigh? The industry support for this has been... lacking, at best.

 

[Lexodus]

You're fucking insane. Legendary, but insane.

 

[12345cyclone]

This is brilliant

 

[MrBrightside919]

I'm gonna be completely honest with you...

...this may be the greatest review ever

 

[TheLazyKnight]

Wow. Very insightful review. You have completely changed the way I look at bricks.

 

[cavsfan69]

What is this I don't even....

 

[El Poncho]

Thanks I was just hoping there would be a review on a Brick sometime soon.

 

[Zetona]

Blimey! Won't be looking at bricks quite the same way. I better rethink how I was going to build my house. You have opened my eyes!

Seriously, this thread needs to be preserved somehow. This has given me the best laugh I have had in ages.

Maybe there should be a Hall of Fame of great threads, though they'd have to be locked to preserve their greatness.

I'm not sure which is more amusing - the effort put into reviewing a brick, or the amount of arguments erupting over which brick is better!

 

[CrafterMan]

This is possibly the best thing ever.

God I love bricks.

Meh. This is just the convention hyping up a merely average product. If you don't agree, then remember S.H.I.T Brick? That's what I thought.

Why is it that someone can write a compelling and well put together review of a brick, yet other people fall short reviewing games?

 

[Ajaysallthat]

oooh discussion of bricks always gives me the chills....and aids...

Typical Lindesay fanboy response. The Haigh is a breath of fresh air in an industry suffering from a severe lack of innovation. Klaussen is a visionary-- he's taken a classic formula and made it not only better, but tweaked it in such a way that it can appeal to both hardcore brickers and casual ones.

Casual brickers are ruining the construction industry.

I miss the good 'ol days where someone had to wait for their kiln to finish baking and mold by trowel what their brick would look like in walls.... Walls have slowly been transforming into rebar enforced-walls, while although structurally sound, just aren't the same. True, there are a few left (Churches for one) the entire wall market has changed since the old libraries. More and more "casual" brickers begin to flow into the building market everyday while hardcore brickers are still just building roads, so brick developers and manufacturers try to appeal to them by switching to more metal, less red, rebar enforced-walls, thus creating hybrid structures. Most of the construction market is now hybrid structures, with the only exceptions being wood stoves, pedestrian roads, and a few other constructs that have mostly stayed the same. The weird thing is, as walls continue to get "better re-enforced" everything else gets "brickless". Many buildings today feature wall "elements" to add to it's structual stabilty, but just adding stacking and lack of width doesn't make it a wall in the slightest, like many people today seem to think. So, time goes on, TRUE, original walls fade while hybrids grow, screwing over many old hardcore brickers like myself who enjoyed the old fashioned mortar design. So my overall point to this post is this; More proof that "casual" brickers are slowly destroying the construction market's integrity.
