EmP's Pippa Funnell: Stable Adventure review

What exactly possessed you to play this game? I'm trying to imagine you squinting at an archaic GBA so you can get a better look of your horsies.

I'd like to regale you with a tale of losing a bet with someone, or that it was some kind of troll quest Boo & I conjured up in the early hours of the morning (sorry again, Jerec) but the truth is I spent most of 2006 either hung over or drunk, and came up with some really weird shit. This isn't even the only horse raising sim game I wrote!

Find this through the random review window?

Yep. And I was like, "EmP is responsible for that? Oh, I've gotta see this!" I will say that I wasn't disappointed. Well done, sir.

Late night troll quests with Boo were always the best. I remember during one of the last summer team tournaments when we were captains of opposing teams and knew the judges were utterly sick to death of Doom reviews, so we made sure that both times our teams went against each other that we'd both do Doom, Doom wads or Doom-inspired stuff.

And then, with one of them, gave each other our reviews, so we could swipe lines from each other, so not only would the judges get stuck with Doom reviews, but they'd be stuck with Doom reviews that were redundant and used a lot of exact same phrasings, often forced into things. I think mine for that one was Dark Forces (Star Wars Doom clone), but will have to check to see what he did.
