    That is a TurthMedia article on SomethingAweful.com. those 2 bits of information should be enough for anyone with an I.Q. greater than that of a "trash can" to realize this is a joke.

    TruthMedia articles are ment to take something popular or at least liked, and try to p!ss people off by saying bad / false things about it. Freak83 and RPG_Jssmfulhud are the star idiots here falling for it without fail.

    Honestly now, you should really go read things on the internet a little more, especially get yourself acquainted with SA and its brand of humor.

    Yeah, I must sadly admit to finding SA funny. They may be sick, deranged weirdos but they do come up with some funny stuff. This review being one of them. For the record, yes it is fake. No, the reviewer never even touched the game. That's the point. They literally are trying to see how many flames they can get. That's how they rank the reviews.

    I vaguely remember a time when SA was midly funny, but that was ~5 years ago.

    I think the "review" that garnered the best responses was for Neverwinter Nights... Freakin' hilarious, if my email box had stuff like that, it could do standup.

    Far in the future, a war is being fought between the Terran Starways Authority and the Khalat aliens. Choose your side and battle to secure your starship or hives.
    <span style='color:yellow'>LOL Terran Starways Authority... Khalat.. LOL</span>

    Terran Starways Association
    <span style='color:yellow'>Can't make up his mind.. lol Association.. LOL</span>

    Every single alien in Natural Selection is a thinly-veiled clone of a Zerg breed. Fades are Mutalisks, Lurks are Ultralisks, and Unos are Zerglings. I'm surprised Valve hasn't been sued by Blizzard for this blatant an idea theft.
    <span style='color:yellow'>OMG Poor Valve... WTH is an "Unos" LOL</span>

    acid-shooting Skulker, the spike-throwing Fade, and the living juggernaut that is the Lurk
    <span style='color:yellow'>Now this would a cool change in abilities!</span>

    The sound effects were music to my ears, if by "music," you mean "a screeching cacophony not unlike Yoko Ono's songs."
    <span style='color:yellow'>LMFAO... <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> </span>

    It's impossible to explain why this game was released: by all rights, it should have been destroyed before Valve released it on an unsuspecting community of Half-Life players
    <span style='color:yellow'>HAHAHHA, Look Out Flayra, not only do you work for Valve but your going to be Sued and tared and Feathered! LOL <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> </span>

    Nightcrawler, you may want to edit that post and remove the link. If that picture is remotely linked, the SA people are gonna replace it with something extremely nasty. I wouldn't want you to get blamed & banned for it by the NS board admins.

    While you're all browsing the SA stuff, look for the posts about the zookeeper, and the dating game prank.

    SA is hilarious. Have you seen the emails they get in relpy to Truth Media. Daer God. By the way, most of the SA guys love NS. They usually do Truth Media reviews about things they either love or really really hate.

    agrees. SA can still be funny, but you have to wade through 7000 word articles to find it. They need an editor.
