Overexposure

[Imp_Emissary]

You know where they went wrong?

They forgot about their eyebrows! xD Amateurs!
You can't let the little details get past ya.
Also, planning ahead enough so you don't try the same con as someone else at the same time, of course.

I wonder if bald people like Elliot can do the same thing...

Normally, I'd say yes as long as he followed the above tips, but now Ashley and Erin have ruined it for everyone!
Good news though! The Black Death is making a comeback in the U.S.!

He could try that.

Edit: And to mess with Erin, he could blame it on Suchong! > (<-Perfect evil revenge plan)

Overexposure

Looks like it's contagious.

heeeeey, you guys did this same joke last time.

Fallout should stay a Isometric Turned Based RPG instead of Baby's First STALKER game.

And Wasteland 2 is just not Fallout to me. Its certainly not as memorable.

That ship left port a very, very long time ago.

I've come to agree, though. It's all the people seeing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and saying "So it's Fallout with vodka?", mainly. It gets even better when the knee-jerk shouts of rip-off gets going. At absolutely anything involving atomic wastelands...

So it doesn't occur to Erin to just play the game to review it, for her job?
Wait, this is Erin we're talking about.

Also, minor pedantry incoming: CANCER doesn't make a person lose all their hair, it's CHEMOTHERAPY. Which is supposed to make someone with cancer better.

That struck me as a bit odd too. If they were bald, they'd already be undergoing treatment.

The review part is probably because they don't get to choose the game they have to review, knowing Erin's luck, it would probably be the new Assassin's creed or whatever shitty things came out recently.

Normally I'd laugh more but my Aunt is kind of dying soooooo.

Bad timing I guess.

Glad someone noticed.

Are you guys, like, serious? or...

Also that manager is on The Escapist. I recognize it's layout .... ... wonder what her username is >_>

We all know it's you.

 

[Rad Party God]

wonder what her username is >_>

Wanna know?... come close... closer... closer...

Spoiler: Clickity Click

YOU WERE EXPECTING A USERNAME, BUT-

 

[Rebel_Raven]

Spoiler: for the hell of it

I guess virtual radiation treatment for virtual cancer?
I don't get hyped often, but I'm tempted to use a sick day on release, too. FO4 looks like it's gunna be awesome!

 

[MrCalavera_v1legacy]

Ah, so it seems i'm not the only one who gets tired of hype cancer and feels well over exposed t- Oh. ...I'll just sit in that corner, then.

 

[WhiteTigerShiro]

So the boss is checking The Escapist and YouTube at work eh? Disgusting behaviour. Wouldn't catch me doing that.

You wouldn't keep tabs on what the competition is up to? You'd be a horrible business owner, then.

 

[Drops a Sweet Katana]

I thought I'd hate having skin cancer, but its growing on me.

The doctor says I have a brain tumor, now its always on my mind.

I recently got prostate cancer. It's been quite hard for the past few days.

Having cancer on my tongue tends to leave a bad taste in my mouth.

Having colon cancer sucks ass.

I'm a terrible person.

OT: So is this turning into its own story arc now?

Bowel cancer's a bit of a shit, innit?

Can't speak much of throat cancer.

I hope there's no bad blood between us, leukaemia.

Yes I'd like one ticket for the next train to Hell. 20 minutes? Smashing.

What if you wanted to take a page out of their book, you know?

I find this reply bizarre on many levels. I can't quite settle on you massively missing my point, being needlessly combative, or.. or..

I'll chalk it up to me being tired, glare at my monitor like it just grew antennae and fucked my chinchillas.. and go to bed.

Good night.

... STALKER and Fallout have almost no similarities. That's silly. You're silly.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

One thing that should tip her boss off that she's faking it is that if she really had cancer she'd have to go on med leave looooooooong before showing up bald.

 

[008Zulu_v1legacy]

I am having my game delivered to me at work. So I suppose I will have to tell my boss that I am going home... for sleep, at about 10 in the morning.

 

[mysecondlife]

Oh man, this sure brings me back..

Except Portal 2 wouldn't even take you a full day off. Half maybe.

I am just lamenting the fact that Fallout became a rather shallow First Person RPG. So the comparisons to STALKER is not unreasonable imo.

And I think this game does not deserve to win GOTY. That honor should go to Witcher 3 or heck even MGS5 because that game could be Kojima's last.
