A prince’s ransom

Now this is a story all about how a game’s price got flip-turned upside-down, and I’d like to take a moment just sit right there, I’m gonna tell you how I– okay, enough. I think they’re gone for now. Listen, this is former sitcom star and lyrical virtuoso Will Smith. I’ve been kidnapped by these “Podgamer” people – even after they chuckled nervously, awkwardly glanced at each other, and promised over and over that they wouldn’t kidnap me! I, frankly, was shocked.
Apparently, they thought it’d somehow be humorous if I – Will Smith, once “The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air” – wrote a post about The Prince Of Persia: Warrior Within‘s recent price drop to 59p/€0,79/99¢. Look, they’re nearly as idiotic as they are deranged, as these corpses dangling from meat hooks, partially dissected rodents, and – worst of all – dissenting opinions about Angry Birds clearly prove.
Oh Lord. They’re coming back. And they’re brandishing copies of “Wild Wild West”! Look, if this ever gets back to my family, tell them that Warrior Within is an enjoyable platformer, even if the Prince’s so-abrupt-it’ll-give-you-whiplash emo makeover makes the story about as charming as a squeeze of lemon juice in an open wound. Also that I love them, I guess. Also, AAAAAAIIIIIEEEEEEE.
INTERNET GAME WEBSITE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR WILL SMITH KILLING, MILLIONS REJOICE.
THE INTERNET, November 6th, 2010 – The creative team behind Podgamer Gamer, an internet web site dedicated to reviewing the least-worst offerings available on fruit-branded mobile devices, have posted the final ramblings of American rapper-come-actor-come-rapper-come-actor-again Will Smith, whose body was found hanging from a meat hook in the middle of Chessington: World of Adventure earlier today.
The team, who achieved notoriety by failing entirely to come to a consensus on whether birds should be angry or not (it says here), have subsequently been flown directly to Buckingham Palace where they will receive Knighthoods from Queen Elizabeth II for Services To The Arts. Then they will be kicked thoroughly until they are very sick, as per tradition.
Ahh, English verbal diarrhea, with lots of words saying very little. Is there anything funnier?
(why yes, gentle reader, just about anything is funnier.)
Not sure whether you’re aiming that at Nathan or Ben, but Nathan is definitely American and as far as I know they’re both residents of your good ol’ US of A. (Not that I agree with your assessment in either case.)
