This has got to be the funniest thing I've read all week. I doubt that even the most cynical, jaded Fallout fanbois would have joked about Inertplay pulling this shit. Sending condoms and a sex ed video with a game will go down in history as some of the worst marketing ever.

I'll love to see how the sycophants on the soon-to-be defunct Interplay fora will justify this fiasco.

Heh. I like the comments over on the forum there. I have to say if the only complaints against the article rely on using FO:T, that most errors are typo's and I have too much time on my hands, then I have to say I'm pretty happy with it. :D

That forum requires an Admin to activate my account, so as soon as that happens, I'll reply over there.

EDIT: Done. Activation came through pretty quick.

Of course, the joke is all on the folks who GOT the press kits, since the condoms all came "pre-used".
No doubt filled with the acidic black seed of Herve.

I think they stole my idea, I had rubber vaginas in the box, they send condoms and rubber gloves? Hmm, something is a afoot. Guard your shitty ideas good, if they want any of them they're going to have to pay me for them.

Haha, see? I told you to be careful. I guess there's some covert Interplay workers on this forum.

Does the kit come with a thick bar of magnesium to stick up Herve's ass, light, and turn him into a French Candle?

They promise to spend only a year on this title - only a year less than the original Descent to Undermountain!

I had an idea for Caen once, one that I thought up after a day spent staring at a blank movie poster. One that only remains in my head now as a jumpbled(yes, JUMPBLED) pile of weeds. I somehow recall something involving a lot of water and a firehose, some kerosene and old bottles of whisky.

Then I began to ponder the efficiency of good ol' gun violence, but that fell through the feeble floorboards of my mind like wet cement.

Well you have to be human to be associated with this thing called the Patriot Act, or at least partly human. His brain is so god damned small that he doesn't medically classify as human. There are numerous other problems that I'm just not going to go into right now but are blatantly obvious about Mr. Shitdie Caen.

I'm sure you already know what those problems are. I'm sure.
Endure. In enduring, grow strong.
