He Who Need Not Be Named: I know that I wouldn't have played it as long as I did if it were, say, a Bubsy game.
Me: oh god, do not even joke about that!
HWNNBN: Sorry. Did you play Bubsy 3D?
Me: no, I never did, but I have heard horror stories about it
Me: I heard that if you say "Bubsy 3D!" three times in front of a mirror in an unlit bathroom, at 3am on the 3rd new moon of a year ending in 3, that nothing at all happens.
Me: You will, however, get ragged on by all your friends for being such a gullible idiot, though
HWNNBN: I played, and beat, the first Bubsy on the Genesis. 3D was so fucking awful; on top of the horrid gameplay it was dog sphincter ugly.
Me: see? I learn from the hilarious mistakes of my friends
HWNNBN: I was young and didn't know any better.
Me: and once I am done laughing at your pain and misery, I will be a wiser person for the knowledge that B3D is best avoided at all costs
HWNNBN: No,I kid. That game is a lost treasure. You should definitely play it.
Me: ha! Too late. I already know better
HWNNBN: Damn. Ummm..you should totally play Shadowman on the DC
Me: Ha! I already played that one and was scarred by it.
Me: And, I played Shadowman 2 on the PS2
Me: it was marginally better than the first one
Me: actually, check that - I played the demo of Shadowman on my PC
Me: still, it was shit
HWNNBN: That's like saying your second prison rapist cuddled some afterwards.
Me: well, it was very nice cuddling
Me: made me feel special
HWNNBN: That makes all the difference.
