Now we just need the RIAA's lawyers to have the same done to them.  ...ridiculous lawsuits and making people pay legal fees then dropping the case...

Considering the state of the US's legal system, though, it's unlikely to be enough...

Love this. All that bumf about video games corrupting people's minds and it turns out that the guy pumping out the soundbites is as corrupt as we're all supposed to be.

Dunno if you have this saying in the US, but this is a case of "the pot calling the kettle black".

As for disbarring the RIAA's lawyers, it might be better just to dissolve the RIAA. Slipgate - Ninja

Give me a railgun, I'll take care of the RIAA.


PS.  Yes that saying is known (to me at least).

I'll throw in a few Haste powerups for good measure.  Doom - Thumbs Up!

I actually hate fast-rail, lol.  I'm so used to the timing, that fast rail ends up just screwing me up.  It's interesting how something that would seem to be helpful can actually screw someone up.  However, if I just used the haste to "strafe" faster, it would be good.  I just wouldn't take advantage of the shorter weapon delays.  That would be pretty funny if all you had to do was lean your body while you're in the air and look a certain to a certain degree offset of your current trajectory.

The thought of aiming a rocket launcher at your own feet is also rather amusing.

I think a slipgate rocket laucher, quad, haste, and the ninth impulse would work better
