Well, I lied about posting a parody this time. Instead you get a rant.
Lots of swearing in this one, thank god for that censor. I wouldn't want to corrupt those young impressionable minds ...Yeah, I actually would like to corrupt those young impressionable minds. Better me than someone else who actually has to try..
Also contains spoilers. Read at yer own risk. Don't blame me later because you don't read the little bit before the word art.
Oh yeah, I take requests now. Either hit me up here, PM, or the rare times I'm on IRC.

Today's Rant Subject: REZIDUNT EVUL FAAAAAAAIVE.
So I got Resident Evil 5 recently. Fun game. Almost as fun as 4 was. Now I don't know about you, but I'm kind of pissed off when it concerns this game.
No, it's not because of anything cheap in the game. The game itself is fine. It's that fans that [acid burst] me off.
What with their "Resident Evil is DEEEEEAD", and "THIS ISN'T RESIDENT EVIL." and "Pay for versus mode?! What the [tornado fang]?" and my favorite (Also spoilerific) "Chris moves a rock by punching it? He's obviously on Steroids!" I have one thing to say to all of that.
[tornado fang]. YOU.
Yes, I know most of the stuff in RE5 is over the top, but so was RE4. Remember that laser room? No person would be able to perfectly calculate how the lasers would move and not die in the short time that Leon did. Chris punching a rock just shows how determined he is. Plus it's been ten years since we last saw Chris. Couldn't it be possible that he hit the gyms in that time?
Also, people complained about what happened to Jill. Yeah, I can agree that Capcom turned her into a crappy plot device, but at least she was in the game. We don't hear about anyone else in the game.
As for the Versus mode, Capcom isn't forcing you to buy anything. This was obviously something that Capcom probably thought close to shipping the game and didn't have time to put the versus mode onto the disk. Would you rather have RE5 delayed for a versus mode that's probably going to suck? Again, you don't have to buy it. Although complaining about paying for a versus mode is like complaining about any added content (Take for example, Fallout 3's Operation Anchroage): It's retarded since it isn't mandatory to purchase it. Quit your bitching and not buy the versus mode.
Resident Evil 5 is still a Resident Evil game. Those bitching about that have no right to decide whether it is or not. It's the creator's job. Whether you like it or not, it's a Resident Evil game. Plus, RE5 is going to be the last game of it's kind. So congrats, RE6 isn't going to follow the RE4-5 formula anymore.
If you think about it, the orignal Resident Evil games were about surviving a mansion full of zombies and other creatures that don't make a bit of sense.
Expecting the story/actions the characters take to actually make sense, you're playing the wrong series, dumbass.
*Note: That last line wasn't aimed at anyone here in general.
