GooberMan Posted June 30, 2002 I decided to check out Gamespy's Doom site on 3dactionplanet. Residing in the news articles was something about a new feature called "Ask Squishy." It links to a page describing Squishy's History. DISCLAIMER: This material can scar you for life. Click at own risk. 0 Share this post Link to post
Arno Posted June 30, 2002 This is what happens when somebody tries to write stories for his website while being drunk or stoned. 0 Share this post Link to post
Searcher Posted June 30, 2002 Oh Yes, a drunken caco, just the kind of image I would portray, of the game, on my website - NOT!!!!!! Ridiculous!!!!! This goes way beyond stupid. 0 Share this post Link to post
pritch Posted June 30, 2002 Hmm, My first thought was "are they ripping off Hissy?" but I don't think so. Oh well, just harmless fun. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lizardcommando Posted June 30, 2002 It seems more like a retarded cacodemon rather than a drunk one. Drunk isn't exactly the right word to describe that Squishy fella. 0 Share this post Link to post
Amaster Posted June 30, 2002 I actually kinda like the idea of a caco nonchallantly attempting to mingle with humans unnoticed. Cacos and humans should get along damnit! I love the little cacos, I love them gooood. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jello Posted July 1, 2002 Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, this squishy thing reminds me an awful lot of the 'ask helga' thing on planetwolfenstein. They're both incredibly dumb and I hate gamespy for making them.........../me saunters off and rapes a small pile of green goo 0 Share this post Link to post
IMJack Posted July 1, 2002 It's a "GameSpy Thing". They do a lot of strange columns supposedly written by game characters. Don't even try to figure it out, it'll just hurt your head. 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted July 1, 2002 It all started with "Walter's World" on PlanetHalfLife, which was the first and last of its kind which was funny. 0 Share this post Link to post

elbryan42 Posted July 1, 2002 God, Gamespy and all major game sites suck. They should NEVER make a game devotion site. It reads like a hype site. Who cares about the prequels to Doom 3? They don't have flashy graphics. They're not the newest thing. I betcha that the second something newer than Doom 3 comes along, that site will be phased out. I'm staying to the down to earth (or is it down to hell?) Doomworld. 0 Share this post Link to post

GooberMan Posted July 1, 2002 Gamespy seems to attract lamers like an injection room attracts addicts... I was reading through the History of FPS's article (linked to on the site's news page), and there was quite a bit of wrong and/or missing information in it (the most blaring fuck-up being that they said it was John Carmack's head-on-a-stick in Doom 2). 0 Share this post Link to post
spank Posted July 1, 2002 Gamespy is all about $$$ now. Long gone are the good days of QuakeSpy and PlanetQuake.com. 0 Share this post Link to post

Sharessa Posted July 1, 2002 Heh...this is just a rip-off of Walter's World, which was pretty funny, and so was that TFC one, but this one is just plain stupid. Cacos are just too darn cute to get drunk. ^_^ Wait a sec... /me thinks about all the cute girls he knows that get drunk 0 Share this post Link to post

The \er Posted July 1, 2002 GAMESPY IS THE DUMBEST GAMING SITE EVER! First they took over Mplayer and replaced it with the stupid Gamespy Arcade which is the crappiest gaming program ever. Then they took over File Planet, which now has 80 minute lines. If DW ever falls to the evil wrath of Gamespy, I will be very, very angry!! 0 Share this post Link to post

pritch Posted July 1, 2002 It was bad enough when magazines wanted you to dial premium rate numbers for gameing tips, now if you seek strategies online sites try and charge you for it. No, it's all wrong. Keep the internet free. It's one bit of respite in our hectic modern lives. 0 Share this post Link to post

I didn't do anything to them until THEY started attacking me. Stupid cacodemon lovers. They're exactly like dog lovers who can't stand the sight of a dog getting killed or "hurt" (read: Getting smacked by a bat wielded by a cat in a cartoon), even if it's in a a computer game, bah! (Dog lovers are directly responsible for RtCW not having dogs in it I'm sure) 0 Share this post Link to post
