Video Game Silliness

Hey! Havoc shows up in the second FMA game for the PS2!

General Rules of Insanity for Playing X-Men Legends 2 Among the Shelkey Sisters
- Simple puzzles will take 20 minutes to solve.
- Jen IS Storm. Do not argue this.
- When in doubt for a fourth character, use Gambit. EVERYONE likes Gambit.
- Seeing Gambit on a loading screen is enough to keep Jen going for another 2 hours.
- Fanservice will be mocked. Even Gambit.
- Bad accents will also be mocked. Even Gambit. Sorry, Jen.
- Pyro will be mocked more than anyone else.
- The character Katie plays will have the best soundbites out of the team.
- Whenever Sinister comes on screen, Rachelle will yell out some reference to that Mitchell quote.
- The secret testing is really product testing for Herbal Essences shampoo.
- Teleporting puzzles are cheap.
- Rachelle's characters must stand 20 metres from cliff edges at all times.
- Katie's characters will never be able to heal properly because of that blasted Z button.

Here's a question... is it freaky to play X-Men because you've played in IP&S? Do you find yourself waiting for Scott to crack a joke, Remy to snog Urd, Logan to say something samauri? Are you waiting for Sinister to reveal a secret alliance to the FoH?

Most of all, are you expecting to see certain ShadowKnights at the bottom of your screen riffing the gameplay?

No, the worst was when Sinister was talking about Lorna, leading me to think "Does Clay know she's seeing other mad scientists?"

... my Photoshop sense is tingling...

You would not believe how much my heart sank when I discovered that the likes of Mike, Kitty and Nance where not selectable as team members. What's funnier is that Jen asked when we scrolled through the character list if Kitty was playable. If my sisters knew the real reason I play as Wanda... I'll have to find a screenshot of her in the game, but she has a slightly dark and kinda jumpsuit-ish uniform and long red hair. Granted, Nance doesn't have mutant powers, but I CAN DREAM! :P

That's because Sinister had the reins of Malice, who had possessed poor Lorna's body for a very long time. And yeah, it woulda been great if the ShadowKnights were playable. ::giggles:: C'mon, how much fun can you have with a sword-weilding farmboy?
