Ugh. Business jargon. It's says so little that it might as well be the sounds of dogs barking excitedly.

The sound of Naughty Dogs barking excitedly?!

With the help of various bundles and epic sales, I've cultivated a nice library of titles. Scanning over them one day I found myself saying "Wow, a lot of games start with D" and I looked further down to see I had most every letter, including a few numbers. A few months down the track and I check which ones I'm low on. As of now, the letters I need are I, Q, X, and Y.

Any one got any good suggestions for rounding out my alphabet?

(p.s. Over a year between posts, I'm an excellent blogger)

D. Cut off the infected part. I like that version.

This, provided it's a viable option.

So, Ronimo just dropped a link over to an extended version of the Awesomenauts Theme Song by Sonic Picnic over Facebook the other day, which you can download from the link over here for the low, low payment of a Tweet or Facebook shout out.

I'm too impatient/lazy to wait/go look for an official lyrics sheet, so I tried to write down the lyrics while listening to the track on continuous loop (surprisingly, it's not stuck in my head but I've got mad cravings to go play).

I'm'a drop this right here for everyone's enjoyment. I know for a fact it's not 100%, but I couldn't figure out anymore words without my brain melting (so many mondegreens), so please Duders and Dudettes drop fixes and suggestions in the comments below. I'll edit this as more skilled audiophiles/80's song enthusiasts lend their powers. Thanks in advance.

Awesomenauts Theme

*Instrumental Intro*

Awe-some! Awe-some! Awesomenauts!x2

Can you see the fire in their eyes so bright?

Their weapons burst(?), their iron will so strong!

Win the Cosmic War! The AWESOMENAUTS!

Wow, so sour. And if defending a journalist I like (because people stay bitching about him. There's a new "I hate Patrick thread every goddamn week.) is considering dick sucking, then fuck it. I’ll cradle the balls… stroke the shaft… work the pipe… and swallow the gravy…I just don't give a fuck really. And yes I fucking love Tropic Thunder.

This. Also, "Behold!...God's Mistake!"

In all seriousness, please do. I've got way too much video game on my plate to even consider this gem for a while. Everyone, take a hint: back the fuck up and let me breath.

*gets a connection through and plays it*

Yah, that's some solid platformer there. Thought I wasn't gonna make it for a while, my jumping has gotten rubbish from atrophy.

Can't much more than what has already been said. A speed/reflex run a la Sonic mighta been neat.

But I also found that the game has a difficulty spike on the screen right before you feel empowered by the sun. That may be by design though, because after that the difficulty tapers off a bit and I actually felt powerful going through the next screens.

Yes! That was hot, intentional or otherwise.

Looks like we broke it

@handlas: Fuck yeah, it is! It's pretty much made for our generation
