While I missed the original airing, I found the complete episode of The Simpsons spoofing World of Warcraft. Yes, I know South Park did it better and with the game's graphics but something about this spoof made me smirk, from the way the caught the look of the game to the way Bart and Marge have their issues. Among the one-liners. "What a fun quest. Aren't you glad I made you take that nap in the middle?" "If you kill me, I'll egg your houses in real life"...
I did like the subplot about Lisa finding love for the Beautiful Game, with a cameo by Ronaldo... who ruins families...muhuhaha.

Gah. AC Milan beat ManU. Still, ManU wasn't putting up much of a fight from what I could tell.

About Me
- AetherGamer
- Los Angeles, California, United States
- As a Thirty-something born in the sunset of the '60s, I've seen gaming go from the Atari 2600 to the sophistication of the Xbox360 and beyond. What interests me (and often times frustrates me as well)is the social aspects that gaming/gamer "culture" sometimes permits, allows, or simply co-exists with. Mostly, this will be my soapbox for things game-related but don't be surprised if it takes a detour on occasion.
