I'm not sure they should be able to legally serve shit like that. Aren't big macs terrible enough?

The entire point of the Monster Thickburger (pictured), in all its butter-flavored shortening glory, is to appeal to people who are sick and tired of fast food restaurants "wussifying" their menu.

When a real man eats a burger, his arteries should harden from the _aroma_.

Jesus, that burger blocked my colon just looking at the picture. Fuck me, after eating that burger I'd feel like I tossed Elvis down my esophagus. And I don't mean the skinny, hip-shaking Elvis, I mean the corpulent, sequine-engorged, sweat-slick Elvis who could barely lift his own arm, much less sing.

And Gamespot... I just don't know what to say. I mean, there's making money and then there's OMFG GET YOURSELF A HAMBURGERNOWWOWTHEYARE THE GREATESTTHINGEVAR!1! EVAR!1! EVAR!1!!@!! Goddamnit, it's like Ronald McDonald took a great big golden arches dump all over the screen.

It's really a shame too.

When McIGN put out their adverts for the McGriddle, I was made strangely hungry by the idea.

This just makes me want to kill a cow and bury it so no one has to eat one.

Parasitic organisms that kill off their host are rarely as successful as those who leave the host healthly enough to propagate the parasite. McDonalds could learn a thing or too from some of the most simple lifeforms.

Yes that ad takes "A bit excessive" and then bitch-slaps it with a happy meal.

I'd be willing to bet that you could find all sorts of simple lifeforms in a McDonald's- in the food as well as behind the counter, running the fry machine, manning the drive-thru...

Heh, funny story: When I worked at Walgreens as the Photo Op for a few months, my buddy next door at Burger King was the manager, so after hours I would go over there while the kids were closing up and hang out in the office. We would just bs and stuff, and I even helped him count the store's cash deposits, just because I could.

Anyway, one night I am over there, and there's this degenerate lady there, drunk. My buddy had to fire her, but he hates to fire people, so he let me do it. The funny part is that not only did she think I worked for BKcorp (with my blue lab coat and slacks/shirt/tie), she actually bought me firing her.

Oh, and to stay on topic, I'm really waiting on Jade Empire. Imperator seems interesting also. Two things I didn't notice:

Some form of TFC Source, TF2, or whatever you wanan call it.
DNF (haha)

I have a paid account with Gamespot (which I regret because their reviews seem to be somewhat sparse these days) and I can tell you that I get absolutely no McDonald's PoundOne commercials.

In related news, now I have to try one.

Actually there is a TFC conversion to the source engine in the works by a group of amateur moders. A team of players of the TFC community are tooling away at it, however it will still take a while I think.
Valve had initially promised a TFC:S too (too lazy to dig up the old press release), but haven't heared anything about that in quite a while.

The source conversion is called Fortress Forever, hopefully that ain't a bad omen. Anyhow, here is it's webby :
