Ok, this list didn't marry with my experiences at all (but them I'm older than her, so I guess it wouldn't).

10. Never saw it
9. Only vaguely aware of it
8. Seen the spidey gif, but never heard the song with it
7. Very much DID love this. But that's because the song is by a Melbourne band TISM Love them
6. Badgers and mushrooms... nope, no idea never watched it
5. Yatta? nope, never seen that
4. While the song, and Eurovision itself are hardly unknown, that video itself... nope never saw it
3. Nope, never saw it
2. Ultimate showdown IS an awesome video/song
1. Homestar runner is fricken awesome, and my wife and I even made a trogdor t-shirt for our first born


So, I knew 3 of the 10 videos. And she doesn't even like the best one of them... this is continuing to remind me why I've stopped watching videos on thatguywiththeglasses.

That and youngens like her talking about the recent past with a nostalgic fog, as if they're the elders remembering a time long past, gets a little grating.

>> ^Bruti79:

Is this one of the same guys who did Homestar Runner?


Naw that was these guys. But I think I see what you mean, his lady greeter voice reminded me of teen girl squad.

Is this one of the same guys who did Homestar Runner?

>> ^dag:

I think, just be release dates, that Homestar would be the progeny.


Well said, I stand corrected!

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Yes! Totally Homestar. I've just started playing this with my boy - and it is kind of cool. I'm getting a real SnowCrash vibe, even with the primitive graphics.>> ^rabidness:

mas8705, Telltale Games is keeping this genre alive! They make episodic adventure games, just like Valve did with HL2. And it's not just Sam & Max, they are currently developing Strong Bad and Wallace & Gromit adventures! It's story/puzzle innovation over graphics.

http://www.telltalegames.com/

I attended their panel at the 2008 Comic-Con in San Diego and it was spectacular!

Steve Purcell, the creator of Sam & Max was there, talking about how he's had a lot of creative control over both the game AND the ol' television show.

The Brothers Chaps were not there, but many of the game creators were there, and the demo of the upcoming Strong Bad adventure game will blow away any Homestar Runner (http://www.homestarrunner.com) fans. Hint, hint -- the King of Town as a tyrannical leader of the Municipality and the Poop Smith as the secret police.

The Wallace & Gromit demo was neat too, displaying an in-game example of the crazy contraptions we've come to expect from Wallace.

I'm a HUGE fan of all three of these franchises; if it wasn't for the J. Michael Straczynski Q&A, I would say this was the best panel at Comic-Con 2008.

Ha, yeah. That's actually a pretty good tune. Them Chaps is talented.
