It felt like the first time I touched a girl’s breast in the backseat of a car with fogged up windows, scared that her parents were going to fling the door open and start yelling at me. I wanted to grab the controller and run. I wanted to nuzzle it against my face and ask it who is a good controller? Who is a good controller?

You’re a good controller, you sexy thing, you.

Comparing a controller to a pair of scared teenage titties and puppy dogs is a great way to tell people you suck at writing, so that review is fine with me

Used to think Daikatana was going to be good. Of course by the time it came out everyone had wised up. They should have just released whatever they had years before and people might have bought it. Same goes for Duke Numkem 4.

Another story occured to me. Loosely fits the "lie" theme.

One day in high school my friend Dan was inviting people to his house to celebrate his birthday, and this kid Mike overheard him and asked if he could go too. Mike was one of the autistic kids who couldn’t go anywhere without an aide. He was fairly high-functioning, eminently quotable, and he was obsessed with war, the military, and government agencies. Anyway, Mike asked if he could go to the party, and Dan said, “Uh, yeah, sure,” thinking Mike would forget about it.

But he didn’t forget and when the weekend came he looked up Dan’s address and showed up to the party. No one expected this, so it was a bit awkward, but he didn’t bother anybody, so after a few minutes nobody cared. For his birthday Dan got a new acoustic guitar and Battlefield Vietnam. Mike, as I said, was obsessed with war, so Battlefield Vietnam blew his mind. After everybody went downstairs to the basement to watch horror movies, Mike stayed upstairs playing Battlefield in Dan’s bedroom. We didn’t see him again until around 5am when Mike came running down into the basement and blurted out “I gotta go. See ya” and left the house. After everyone left, Dan went to his bedroom and tried to find Battlefield Vietnam, but he couldn’t. Mike had stolen it. He denied it for two weeks—that’s the gaming lie—and then gave it back.

You could actually go under the ice in Zora's Domain as adult Link with a glitch. There was no Triforce down there though :(

An offline 1-player MMO that can play itself will never be good, let alone anywhere near the quality of the average Ogre game.
