    In reply to Robots We Love: Dog
    I am probably the only one who really didn't like DOG. I hate when movies/games/books anthropomorphize animals, and I hate when a child builds a robot (like Anakin and C3PO). DOG was the worst.

    Is it wrong that I get so happy when Dog makes his entrance that I drop the controller, clap my hands, and squeal, "Yay! Dog!!!"?

    @Zaxxon Q Blaque: When you have a comfy chair, a bottle of your favourite drink (mine's water) and a little snack, I think anyone could sit at a desk for hours on end.

    In reply to Robots We Love: Dog
    One of the interesting characteristics of Dog is that he fits in well in both serious and light-hearted situations. He would have worked fine as a supporting cast member of Wall-E, for example. Maybe it's because of how little a grasp he has on the larger meaning of any given situation.


    I love his visual design too. Valve did a great job at making him look like a ramshackle Frankenstein of a robot, yet also looking sturdy and friendly. He's a very memorable character.

    Oh Dog. I love you. The way you chase after the giant bits of metal that I toss with my gravity gun in that unconditionally loving way that you have.


    They way that you ripped me from my metal prison after the citadel exploded.


    The way that...


    ... ok, that's as far as I got in Half-Life 2.


    I still love you.

    Any direct connection to Beast Wars instantly makes anything better, though not necessarily good.


    Beast Wars is hands down the best Transformers series. No arguments possible.


    However, you really can't beat the original Optimus "Peter Cullen" Prime (as Kotaku recently put it) for a voice.

    I might have to find a cheap copy of KOTOR II. Never did get around to playing it. Is it one of the BC games for the 360? Too lazy to look it up.

    Avoided the second because friends of mine warned me against it. Something about too many bugs and an unfinished, hurried story line that ended up not making any sense.
