Other things came out May 15th, not just Diablo III. Things like Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter: Legend of the Beast and the long awaited Tenacious D album Rize of The Fenix. Me being me, however, I got all three of those.

At this point in time I would like to congratulate Valve Softworks. And no, I don�t mean that in a sarcastic way. And no, I don�t mean to congratulate them for creating the vast Mannconomy that has brought them much more money than they probably needed.

There are many games within Valve�s library, but we�re only going to talk about two of their most successful franchises, Portal and Team Fortress. (Warning, spoilers below)

Said HAWP mods include replacing the phrase "bid farewell, cruel world!" with "murderbated!", replacing the class pictures in the HUD with pictures of Ash as the classes, and replacing the Administrator with Papa Burch.

For those unaware, these past months Couch Athletics once again raised a rag-tag highlander team from our community and made our way through the daunting platinum league of UGC this season. Like our previous highlander excursions, this implies 2 relevant things. First, our mostly-inexperienced team was able to learn more and more about how to play highlander effectively against teams who are, more often than not, far more experienced than us. Second, it means I get to write about the said

I wasn't planning on having continuity, then I realized the last one had a shitty ending. And people asked for an explanation. I'll probably extrapolate from this in the next one.

CA Comics #3.5: Bad Ending or Just Not YOUR Ending? (WARNING: WALL OF TEXT)
