This is precisely what I needed.

So apparently I had this on my Steam wishlist already. I think I saw it when it first went up and figured that eventually I would have to know. Hopefully this quenches that desire (post-edit: It did, game removed).

EDIT: I didn't realise until now, but apparently I have been living for the opportunity to hear Alex Navarro state, "There's merit to the leggings, but I can see going without."

And y'know what? Those closing sentiments were incredibly poignant and agreeable. I would not put this game anywhere near my daughter if I had one.

I know it's December, but Broken Sword 5 is coming out TODAY. The Novelist on Dec 10th, made by former 2K Marin dude just like Gone Home (and this game has a ghost in it!).

Just in case the staff or people think it'll be a dry month for quick looks.

The show this game is based on is actually really original and funny. They're extremely self referential and make fun of the barbie universe more than anyone in their own show.

You have a level of knowledge about Barbie that is unhealthy. Seek help.

Lol yeah, my daughter picked it on netflix the other day and it wasnt that bad. Barbies closet opening up into infinity matrix style was pretty good.

Max Temkin....there may be a special place in hell for you after this one...

All jokes aside though, this served as a great way to easily convince my wife that this piece of shit was not suitable for my 7 year-old daughter since it only took 10 minutes for her to exclaim "Fuck this hot piece of shit"

Why does this game keep playing the intro to Georgie Girl by the Seekers in the background when they are searching for stuff??

Hey There! Georgie girl

Why do all the boys just pass you by?

Could it be you just don't try, or is it the clothes you wear?

You're always window shopping but never stopping to buy.

So shed those dowdy feathers and fly a little bit.

Secret message from the bitter developers?

Even the comedy stylings of Jeff and Brad couldn't save this abysmal game. Swing and a miss.
