Wet Oreo™Fill a mixing bowl with water, put about 5 Oreos in it, and leave it there until it gets super wet and disgusting. It looks horrible and the water kills the flavor. Why would you do that? Oh yeah, you don’t deserve regular yummy dry Oreos, you deserve to have them completely wet with water.
Wet Pudding: You may have already noticed that pudding is surprisingly moist. But have you ever opened a cup of tapioca pudding, stepped into a bathtub filled to the brim with water, and dropped the pudding in? No, you don’t clean the tub first. And no, you don’t take off your jeans. And yes, you have to stand in the water. You have to experience all of this, that’s part of it. Next, get a big straw and use it for a sippy drink.
Wet Ice Cream: Imagine filling a tank with water and placing an ice cream sandwich in it.
What are you playing wet?: Leaving a cake in the rain
Bonus question: What are your favorite weird video game adaptations of other media franchises?
Andrew Ross (@Dengals): You’re lucky if you have time to play exercise games while taking care of your puppy.
I can think of some strange examples of games being adapted into other media, but the reverse is often worse than strange. If you count game-to-game adaptations, Bomberman Act Zero It definitely counts. Who asked for an edgy Bomberman? Another one that might be better suited is Iron Giant. MultiverseWouldn’t depicting a battle between titans take away from the overall appeal of the film?
Andy McAdams: I again Final Fantasy XIVHe’s probably just running around waiting, hoping to get more Yokai weapons. Dawn TrailThe announcement of Dragon Age this week made me want to play it. Dragon Age: Inquisition or Mass EffectI don’t know which one. So I might try that too.
Bonus question: I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for Dr. Pepper ads. Anarchy Online.
Brianna Royce (@Briannablog): I’m going to go out a lot this weekend. Star Wars Galaxy Legends Take more time to transition vendors Iran (possibly in creative mode this time), and Gorgon Project It’s calling me.
It’s not an MMO, but I remember buying the Wheel of Time game when it came out 1000 years ago. It’s basically a shooter RPG that has very little in common with the actual book. And it’s also pretty creepy. (For example, here’s the GOG link; the introductory description alone will have WOT fans coming up with the “this is how it all works” meme.)
Chris Neal (@Wolf Eyesblog): My focus will probably continue to be Elder Scrolls OnlineI’ve got the best wizard cat (Ember) and am slowly approaching level 50 as I travel through Clockwork City, and after that it’s just a bit of final tidying up and ordering ducks. Final Fantasy XIV I’ve got some things to do, some demos to check out on Steam, and a VR game based on the show Taskmaster that I want to try out.
I was going to recommend the Colonel Sanders romantic drama starring Mario Lopez (which I also reviewed on Justin’s Mutant Reviewers site), but that’s not a media franchise, is it? So I’ll recommend the NES game instead. Fester’s Questwas a game that turned characters from the Addams Family into heroes in a top-down shooter. Its connection to the TV series was… loose at best, but it was fun nonetheless.
Elliot Lefebvre (@Elliot Lefebvreblog): A little more prep work is required Final Fantasy XIV As we get closer Dawn Trail (And yes, I am ready for that.) I am trying to fight a spiral that is getting worse instead of better. Also, the classic Rockman I play the game just for the nostalgia and familiarity.
I think some of the weirdest licensed games came out before the 16-bit era, because there were popular consoles and a lot of licenses that didn’t fit well with those consoles. Any A genre that people at the time could actually build within their time and budget. In this case, the NES version. Cool WorldRalph Bakshi’s not-so-good movie turned into a kid-friendly platform game. Asked For this?
Sam Kash (Follow): Most of my games are Harry Potter: Magic AwakensThe next chapter of the season was released earlier this week, but I haven’t had a chance to sit down and watch it yet.
Bonus: Hey, Noid!I don’t remember where or why I played it, but I remember it very well. It was originally based on an advertising campaign for Domino’s Pizza. It was a surprisingly fun game, and at the very least, I’m nostalgic for it! Bonus Bonus: California Raisins It was a fun game.
