When you’re making a documentary that prides itself on investigative journalism and you’re looking into the connections between the Mad Dog of Libya and the IRA, you might want to double check the footage you’re using.
So, naturally when you find out the footage that you claim was the Mad Dog’s missiles being used in an IRA attack is actually a video game, the internet is going to react.
It’s the most famous side-scrolling video game of them all. In a box. Backwards. Forgot about your Kinects and your PlayStation Vistas and the Wii U, this is the future of gaming.
Each of us will have our very own cardboard shoe box with a bespoke version of a popular video game going backwards. Imagine Street Fighter II. Go on. You imagined it? There, see. The future!
Mount & Blade, the medieval war game has got a mod where the action is transferred to modern day Glasgow, which is pretty medieval anyway so it should be a perfect fit.
So you get extreme football hooliganism, rioting and urban chaos, not unlike what’s been going on in London and other cities over the past few days.
Man vs. nature, it’s one of the oldest battles we’ve ever fought. Since our distant DNA crawled from the sea in harsh, primordial conditions, we’re forever rallying against that which gave birth to us.
So, why not include Bear Grylls & make an RPG of it? Instead of getting lost in the woods and wrestling grizzlies while upper cutting alligators & drinking your own piss, you can do it all from the comfort of your own basement.

This couldn’t be any more in-your-end-o if it contained Sid James in a toga juggling Barbara Windsor’s funbags in the British countryside.
It’ll take all your concentration and brain power to try and work out what it is they’re actually going on about with regards to the actual game, rather than just talking absolute filth to one another.
It’s nearly summer time, which means heading to foreign soil to sit half naked on a crowded bit of land where dirt meets water, to spend your evenings looking like Dr. Zoidberg while drinking copious amounts of cheap local booze and copping off with strangers.
Or alternatively if you’re feeling the pinch, pretend you did all that instead—send one of these pretend postcards and act like you spent 2 weeks in Vegas surrounded by hot babes.

From the phenomenal iPhone app that helped millions kill time while waiting for their friends to show up for a beer, comes the film of the decade, directed by Michael “LOUDER!!” Bay. Launching into a cinema near you never.
Those green pigs and those birds, are they so different after all? Maybe the whole egg stealing thing was just a massive misunderstanding and they were just borrowing them to keep them safe. I’m sure that was it.
Yeah, they’re all just trying to live in a precariously constructed world that’s really as fragile as all our own. There’s a lesson to be learned here, humanity would do good to look at how these two disparate sides come together in their shared experiences. It’s…it’s beautiful, man.
