Cool. Omikron is up on gog.com now.

It's a game I've been hoping to return to.

Anyone go by Harmonstown on the dart? (ive never heard of it) for some reason, my face had been pasted up on the wall in black and white 36 times??? Someone forwarded my girlfriend on a photo of it saying it reminded them of me. It IS me. Will post a pic later! (on phonr)

you don't happen to have an Iphone or Ipad do you? because there's some strange stuff in the small print of their user agreements.
like this one time, my friend accepted a user agreement without fully reading it, they turned him and two other people into a HumancentiPad.

Well, its certainly no Sonic Spinball :rolleyes:

johnny_ultimate · 14-03-2013 10:32PM

I would rank Sonic 2 Gamegear as one of the hardest games I've ever played, just because of that ****ing bouncing ball during the first Robotnik encounter.

As a kid I think I got to the second world maybe twice.

As a kid, I thought that was the concession. Fine, we get a backlit screen, but hey! there's only one zone, and you're not supposed to beat it.

I still can't understand why Dr. Eggman clawed Sonic from spinning into the lava before their first encounter on Sonic 2 (GG). I mean, isn't that what he wanted? Why bother with the big, steel boulders? The silly, blue bastard is doing himself in anyways.

I think "they" have gotten to o1s1n

o1s1n · 15-03-2013 01:47AM

Without wanting to sound like a complete psychopath, this is a picture of me. There is no doubt about it. I have the exact photo. As Enternow said earlier, 'Dafuq'?! - seriously weirding me out!!!

CathalDublin · 15-03-2013 01:50AM

I'd be scared!
They're watching you!

johnny_ultimate · 15-03-2013 02:07AM

They all seem layered on top of each other where the 'Wanted' and 'Reward. Dead or Alive' part of the poster would be. Probably just a happy coincidence, but I've reported you to the authorities just in case.

CiDeRmAn · 15-03-2013 08:05AM

Looks like the title sequence of the Brady Bunch, only if they made the family exclusively with O1s1n clones and with lots more of you... There's some theme song lyrics there somewhere.... "This is the story, of a clone named Brady..."

Atavan-Halen · 15-03-2013 09:36AM

Perhaps it's a jealous ex and she uses the wall as a dart board. Or as a warning to other females.

I know I would do that if it were me.

15-03-2013 10:19AM

Weird!
is the photo in the public domain?

Jack burton · 15-03-2013 10:29AM

Yeah if its on facebook or someplace that could be it.

Or do you know anyone who pastes or tags?

Oh and first person brings up banksy has to play this Qi Kalxon

CiDeRmAn · 15-03-2013 10:30AM

If it wasn't, it is now!
Heck, if Banksy did it you'd steal the wall and flog it!

What the actual fugg? As mentioned, is this photo online anywhere? Even at that it doesn't explain who or why the hell its there? Thats utterly bizarre!

Bugger!
I just played it though, for authenticity..
People think I'm weird... Well, I might have confirmed what they already knew, at least...

Los Lobos · 15-03-2013 10:50AM

That.is. fcuking.creepy.

CiDeRmAn · 15-03-2013 12:20PM

Is there something even uglier than the bolt on analogue stick for the 3DS?
There is now!

This is the official game controller add-on, shown with the Note 2, at the same conference that unveiled the S4.
More like a piece if crap 3rd party device....

Thankfully it's just a prototype

DinoRex · 15-03-2013 12:55PM

Could be worse...

Sparks43 · 15-03-2013 01:04PM

I live close to there so i will check it out later:eek:

Andrew76 · 15-03-2013 01:25PM

That's what I was thinking - but I trawled through every pic of myself on facebook and it's not there. I also only really use it as a way of keeping in touch with family. Wouldn't have half a billion people added as friends on it or anything.

I did go to college with someone who's boyfriend pasted stuff up, but it was always drawings..never photos. And I haven't seen the person in almost half a decade.

The more I think about this, the weirder it seems!
