Not included is the part where I'm driving a tank, and I see an APC crossing over water, and say "Oh, kickin' rad - he knows a shortcut" then I follow him and sink.

The guy bailin out of the chopper was beautiful. I skipped the whole solo portion of Battlefield 1942 and jumped right into DC and that was my first experience in the game.

I've accidentally backed up over three people trying to C4 me, but never been C4-sploded. I'm actually ridiculously effective in the tank because I'm 1. never driving where tanks are supposed to go, and 2. always trying to run over people, and these are things which nobody really expects or knows how to deal with, because it's so crazy and dumb. One time I killed three people because I knocked their jeep off a bridge with my tank, and sinking vehicles 'splode. One time I maliciously pushed a chinese van over, and then backed off and shot it as the people tried to get out. And tank v. tank combat is something I'm apparently really good at, because I never hold still, and all the time I spent playing Mechwarrior games allows me to intuitively know how to deal with body motion vs. seperate turret control. I like C4 on tanks, though. That one map where you gotta hold that building next to the oil tanks in China or whatever? Tank drivers know this cool little secret where they can sit the tank just close enough to trigger the flag. So I sit up there, wait for them to stop moving, and then dump C4 packets on them. The tank driver never learned, but the gunner figured out after the third time to just get out of the tank and leave the driver to his sodden fate. |

My favorite c4 fun is laying down enough on a bridge and then waiting for an APC to pass while hiding just out of view. It works even better when that rare convoy of vehicles is going a bit fast...

I've got an insanely high air defense rate (for 2 days playing time at least). I've had 17 straight kills as a Blackhawk gunner as well. That's good, right?
I'm a total fool when it comes to anything else though.

I actually did a stick-figure thing like this for some other things. I have one for Star Wars Ep. III, and Spiderman II, and Doom III. |

Jesus fuck, Sam. Angst conduit? Where the fuck do you come up with this shit? You get 2 snaps and a bag of chips. Plus the hard rocking.  Unfortunately, now reading reviews here (or attemping to write them) is going to be like eating hamburgers from AM/PM after discovering filet mignon. You've officially snobbified my palate. |

There's another Half Life 2 one like that. It's basically "You got the Crowbar. You win." It's hilarious.
Also, Samprimary will soon be inducted into the f13.net bag of fools and be doing his strips as a feature on a hopefully weekly basis.

That's the Chap : "Don't Try to Stop My Evil Unintelligible Plan."
Best Line Ever.

That was hilarious. Even my game-challenged spouse enjoyed it (despite probably not getting half the lingo).

Hey! I got an idea! We can send Sam our reviews and he can just summarize them in cartoon form! That way we can all read fewer words! Yay!

Well, there is something to be said for being succinct. Wait, if a picture says a thousand words, Shockeye must be the fucking literati of the bunch of us.
