  1. Well, I'm so sorry I had to come along and spoil your fun...

    Apology accepted.

    Yufster, just to clear things up, I wasn't calling you a liar.

    But you're right. I am a liar. I don't get it. Huh?

    You were right the first time.


  2. Yeah. Too bad you don't have a summer in Ireland. Ha ha!

    Hey, did you hear about that murder on the news? The one in Piltown, Kilkenny? That was me. I mean, uh, that was right outside my house.

    The one I used to live in before I lived in San Francisco, obviously.


  3. I'd just been reading about the San Remo Hotel in a San Francisco Tourist Guide. The name was on the forefront of my mind. It seemed like a sign.

    Kingz didn't change Mareks name. I suppose it could have been Chris.

    My money is with Trep though. Just because he seemed so innocently surprised when he discovered the name change, and pointed it out even after he hadn't pointed out all of OUR name changes. All signs point to Trep! Or at least, one.

    Or Deadworm, seeing as how innocent bystanders can be blamed for this kind of thing.


  4. Shut up, Pooper, ye Queen of Lies!

    No, seriously. They ferment the potato skins or something. I don't know how they do it, but they do make alcohol from potatoes.

    And it's illegal, because the tribe leader wants them to drink Guinness.

    Seriously.


  5. Ah, an Irishman.

    How is the good old Emerald Isle today, eh??? My great great grandmother was from Ireland. Well, she was from the UK, but it's all the same. Especially with the Euro Tunnel connecting them up now.

    I hear you guys have alcohol made of potatoes? That's cool.

    Hey, here is an interesting fact about Ireland: Ireland is the only Catholic Country in Europe. Well, except for the France, technically. Which is actually Godless.

    It must be weird speaking gealic all day. Your English is pretty good for a second language. Are all your TV programmes in Irish too? Haha, and your video games! How bizarre to play Grim Fandango in Irish! Would they have an Irish Accent, or put on a Mexican one? Would they speak Irish with a Mexican Accent? Is that even possible?


  6. Aye, they're still creating 'new builds', whatever that means.

    But they are testing! That's good.

    Haha, I bet Chris can't post in this thread. I am gonna to put "psychonauts" in the title of every thread I start from now on.

    ...Well, nothing new there.

    You are right about February being a calculated risk. I never thought about it like that. Well, that's made be a lot happier.


  7. See, here is what makes me think of EA Games.

    Whoever the Publisher is, they must be pretty confident that they're going to be able to push Psychonauts far enough that they're going to release it in February.

    There aren't many companies that would have enough money to be that confident.

    Plus, I'd say Psychonauts was a pretty good catch for any Publisher. EA probably would have been one of the companies that could 'best accomodate' Double Fine.

    The reason that it's not being released earlier is probably mostly because of packaging and distributation reasons.

    Oh, and:
    It's not my fault I live in San Francisco and you don't...

    That's not a lie, though.


  8. Hell, it was Microsoft before. I don't think EA Games is a step in either direction...

    Besides, at least they'll have the resources to advertise Psychonauts as much as possible, to boost sales in what is otherwise a really bad time to release a game... I would have thought.

    Quite frankly, as long as the Publisher has money and resources, who cares? It won't change the people behind the game. It won't change the developers, the designer, or the game itself. What's important is that Psychonauts gets a chance to live. Not much good being published by The Adventure Company when you're dead.

    Hey, come to think of it... what about LucasArts?

    P.S. I bet you can't think of a single time I have lied.


  9. Who is Andy? Why does he think I'm a liar? Why does everybody think this?

    February is a bad month for me. I'll have no time to play it until Easter, because of my Exams and Work. Also, February is a bad month for Double Fine. Most games are sold around the Christmas Season, I believe, and February seems a little too far on the other side of Christmas to even benefit from exchanged unwanted gifts. Psychonauts will be full price where other stuff has come down in the sales, and everybody is back at school. And it's too far from any other holiday to benefit from those, either.

    My money is on EA Games, by the way.
