Can you improve this one? Probably not - but that doesn't mean I can't have some fun with it. windfisch - I hope it isn't my magnum opus. I'm not even 40 yet, and I like to think I still have something to offer in life; even if such beliefs are delusional.

excelsiorEnjoy those thirties while they last! It's all downhill from there... Just kidding! (Because how would I even know what being old feels like? After all, I just turned 21 )

"That's right, mom: I didn't tie my shoe laces and you can't make me!"
(edit: I'll graciously leave the "blue balls"-joke to someone else.)

Yet he thoughtfully put on the kneepads for when he'll eventually fall over, a great son overall.

I don't know fella, those are pretty big balls. They certainly look to be a mouthful anyway.

OK, so this is far from the worst I've posted in here, but 'two classics remastered' gave me a chuckle. I'm sure it's intended as tongue in cheek. Or at least I hope it is.

OK, so this is far from the worst I've posted in here, but 'two classics remastered' gave me a chuckle. I'm sure it's intended as tongue in cheek. Or at least I hope it is. I'm not nearly as hopeful as you. The "Moorhuhn"-series (original title, which the internet tells me translates to "grouse") used to be extremely popular in Germany, starting with a freeware whiskey-advertisement game in the late 90s (cause being drunk made the game bearable, I guess). It's essentially one of those "Flappy Bird"-type phenomena: A primitive casual game with the faintest hint of personality to appeal to "everyone". So in a sense it could be considered a "classic" and the people advertising it as such most likely were very serious about that claim, trying to go after nostalgic casuals. According to this wiki they were even so shamelss as to make this boxed version (which only contains download-codes, mind you) almost twice as expensive as the individual digital versions combined... Then again, it's still a bargain, considering the outstanding quality -box design.
Hmm, let's consult the official Liefeld-requirements-checklist, shall we?:
- face screaming angrily? - check
- muscles on top of muscles on top of muscles? - check
- inability to draw convincing feet (or complete lack thereof)? - check [edit: Dammit, excelsior beat me to it.]
Yup, you're 100% right!

On second look what I actually enjoy the most is that although one leg is perfectly muscular, the kind that I could see a pleasure in, the second leg is somehow twice as thick (perhaps he's been leaning when doing those squats). Honestly, for a minute there I was finding it so large I could only imagine the possibilities. Following it upward only leads to disappointment however, as it seems the sacrifice made for such bulk is absence of crotch, as the leg appears to come directly from the gentleman's belt. Honestly, it simply renders the endeavour of enjoying such finely worked muscles fruitless. On the grouse box, it would seem appropriate for my evening to find the game is somehow whiskey fuelled (It was a Eurovision evening after all. Nil points for Britain of course...fabulous). With regard to the pricing the line that comes to mind is that any box worth having is a box worth paying for.

Moorhuhn, Eurovision and booze - what else could anyone ask for?
