Just for my personal pride, I would like to state that the father of my children was the first american druid in diablo to clear abattoir of zir and ended that season as best in the USA. He was also ranking in Polytopia, and beat Felix himself at the game. I did observe these things with my own eyes. There are other witnesses who can verify this. That is all.

    Elon Musk trying to make himself out to be a god gamer is such a lose/lose situation; the people who care are also the ones who are going to be the quickest to call him out on his bullshit and other people either don’t care or make the logical conclusion that the time expenditure required would be prohibitive for his supposed job of CEO of multiple companies. It’s just such a hilarious self-own.

    Also, a reminder that Musk was a junior programmer on two of the worst Sega CD games.

      Which two? I already knew his accomplishments are pure garbage, I just wanna know which games he fouled with his programming “prowess”.

        Loadstar: The Legend of Tully Bodine and I believe also Cadillacs and Dinosaurs: The Second Cataclysm. Both FMV-laden turds.

              There was an arcade beat-'em-up simply called Cadillacs and Dinosaurs which I believe is considered pretty good. I remember watching the show as a kid and enjoying it, but that could have just been lower standards at the time. After all, I have a sneaking regard for the pretty corny BattleTech cartoon that was released around the same time…

                I’m pretty sure it’s impossible for a TV show called Cadillacs and Dinosaurs to suck even if they tried.

                Like here look at me trying to come up with a bad episode idea

                Two people out for a picnic on the mesa. They are eating their sandwiches when suddenly one of them hears the distant but unmistakable sound of a dinosaur stampede. She thinks maybe it’ll be fine. The dinosaurs don’t tend to venture this far north. But they look and the stampede is heading right for them.

                To make matters worse their 1959 Cadillac Coupe de Ville’s is having trouble running due to an improper gasoline mixture (in an emergency they had to make their own gas from a dinosaur). They have no choice but to get some anti-dinosaur weapons out of the vehicle’s spacious trunk. They manage to fend off some of the dinosaur scouts with some pre-1994-ban assault rifles. But can they make it to the garage to warn them, and tune up their Cadillac, in time?
