Watermelon Companion Cube! That would indeed be awesome. The carefully exposed innards would be the right colour and everything.

@Puffin Child: That one’s too showy!

Piffle! It's being flirty showing two faces, but keeping its modesty intact by not exposing a third! Also, I'd really like to see a WCC made from one of these. Although I believe they're a touch expensive, and also Japanese.

Hey d00ds – thanks for giving my pumpkin some more press. Given the veritable plethora of other great Portal and WCC pumpkins out there, I may have to have another go at it …

Oh, and by the way, the cake is a LIE!

Aww Man, I did a really cool one too! But the picture is stuck forever on my phone, Damn you bluetooth!

But seriously, is the WCC the most popular game character of all time?

“thinking you’re having a really great time”

Surely thinking you’re having a really great time is the same as having a really great time?

ok ok!! dork yourselves silly. but don’t come crying to me when you find yourself LARPing in the middle of a field thinking you’re having a really great time being a part of something big with an animal skin wrapped around your ass, when actually you’re just very very lost.. in that field, and you’ve just stepped in cow shit.

I would argue, and I’m not being mean, that the unthinking embrace of everything smelling of gaming’s dork-tastic roots is something that’s holding gaming back.

I await the day when middleware platforms are stable, versatile and user friendly enough that other demographics can steer the ship for a while.

He's done a nice job on that, but I find this one several shades more impressive.

“Any chance though you could turn the dork control down a little?”

Forever no.

To deny gaming its true dork-tastic roots would just come across as super fake. The very last thing we need is for this place to let Kieron’s darkest arthouse lust off its leash and run rampant across its innocent geeky pages.

At least not more than once or twice a week anyway.
