Actually, some clarification might be in order. by Jerry Whorebach 09/04/2010, 5:48am PDT

If you thought the story of BioShock was good, you'll love the children's cartoon they stole literally every part of it from. Read about it here and then watch the episode here, or watch the episode first and be pleasantly surprised at every turn (they got Larry off Newhart to do the voice of a robot toymaker - brilliant!).


I wasn't being condescending here or even particularly sardonic. I liked BioShock, and I like it even more now that I know it was inspired by an awesome cartoon show instead of some crazy asshole book from a million years ago. I even like Ken Levine more now that I know he's actually an idiot.

And if that doesn't pan out, well, I guess I'll just have to get their attention the old-fashioned way: by assassinating a politician. If you want to know which one, a clue is in one of the realistic murder simulators I just bought (and it's not the one set in outer space - you're safe for now, Senator John Glenn).


Just to be absolutely clear, the politican I'm thinking about maybe possibly at some point killing is Omar Hassan Ahmad al-Bashir, the President of Sudan, who's currently wanted by the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity. I just want to buy his poor (I'm guessing mostly black?) victims some payback, humanity style.
