Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I have to say, the final stage of Episode III in Lego Star Wars is one of the most poorly-designed levels in an otherwise good game I've had the misfortune of playing.
Running towards the camera at the start of the stage while things are collapsing into lava in front of you, so you have no idea when to actually jump because you can't see is bad enough and ridiculously frustrating.
But to then have the assorted "escape the lava/collapsing building" sections have Obi-Wan teamed up with Anakin amidst their epic duel to the point where you have to start over if you shove (purposefully or otherwise) his whiney Dark Side ass to a firey doom is completely illogical.

The force is weak with this one. Anger he has, slip to the dark side he will.

There's every chance the vows will include "I don't make suggestions, Mr. Baltar. If I want to toss a baby out of an airlock, I'd say so."

100 cupcakes with game themes. Can you guess them all?
There were some here I couldn't tell WTF is on the cupcake and some games I have never ever heard of.

I think there were about 35 I didn't get, mostly because I didn't know the game at all (most were computer games I assume). And I couldn't remember the name of Simon.
Loved the old-school videogame ones!

I loved the Tempest cupcake. But that was my game, back in the day.
