(dont know if I got the right number of ooo's We are using the built in Unity Game center stuff and it has been a bit finicky.

Could never stand that guy on Star Trek The Next Generation and The Guild. I only tolerated him on Tabletop to look at how to play those games.

I don't even know how to respond to this. Anyway, everything that he said, the exact opposite applies for me. And, well, probably for most other people, too. I used to feel meh about Wheaton until I started going to Cons about a decade go, he wasn't my favorite on TNG, though I liked him in Stand By Me. Seeing the stuff he's done since then has very much endeared him to me. He's genuine, funny, kind and really smart. The fact that you seem to base your feelings on him from 2 roles where he plays less than tolerable people is strange. It's like saying you don't like an actor because they played a bad guy or a jerk in a role. Wheaton has done more for the geek community than almost anyone else out there. He and Felicia Day are rocking the Internet with Geek and Sundry. I'm just disappointed the price isn't higher, maybe I'll have to find someone to gift a copy to in order to pick up your slack Oh, you're passing on file size? It's fully narrated! What do you expect? Really now. psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,966 718 113 England #18 psj3809, Apr 17, 2013 I didnt expect the filesize to be small, just nowadays its difficult to install certain games due to a large filesize and having to delete/move/move back files etc. You'll see a fair few people comment on similar issues. The game does look good, i've nothing against the actor (dont care for this 'geek community' thing) just nowadays with a lot of 'epic' large games i've got on my device (Bastion for example) and with so many great games coming out its hard to free up space for me personally Smithey Active Member Apr 14, 2013 41 0 0 #19 Smithey, Apr 17, 2013 Yes!
