This is getting repeated everywhere today; why not here?

I wish they'd made a sequel to Alpha Centauri.

Are you sure? I wished for sequels to Masters of Orion 2 and Front Mission 3 and you see how that turned out.

Panda, you wouldn't happen to have any monkey paws lying around I hope? I'm convinced the only reason Command & Conquer 4 sucked was because someone made a wish on one of those things.

Never got into C&C so it wasn't me!

And you can't pin xcom on me, either!

And Sonic is Sega's fault!

Sure, why not?  Hell, if they just fixed the graphics, it'd still be a damn good game.

Which Xcom are we talking about?  The two shooter/space sim after Apocalypse?  Or the FPS that is being made by a group of people who thought that a franchise that includes a wildly successful strategy game and a notoriously bad FPS would make for a great FPS reboot?  Or the upcoming Firaxis game?

I want to be very clear which one you're not responsible for, so we can all properly blame you for the rest.

Yes.
