"Well," Gator says, tapping his head again, "That makes things inconvenient."

Meanwhile, the techs and the doctor are moving around, doing things to beeping things, which seem to be doing things.

"Preparing for final scan," one of the techs says, and suddenly the beds start shifting around.  From the head of them then springs out some sort of full body scanner, which begins to spin around you.

"I don't think they will be a problem now," the LT says to Day, "You should go out for a Combat Decon."

"Great," Day says, picking up his helmet before heading for the exit, "I just hope I stop squeaking when we get briefed."

"Beginning final scan," the tech speaks up again, and the scanners start humming as they spin.

"Right, when that's done, lets get these guys up," the LT says, checking his comms, "transport's ready to get them out of here."

"Man, Ah'm wishin' I had more time to crack these guys open," Gator says, walking around looking at readouts, "I really wanna take a look at their sparks."

"Anything we should be worried about?" the LT asks, and Gator shakes his head.

"Just designed different th'n anything Ah've seen before.  Nothin' that can't keep fer later."

"Readings at 25%," the tech says, "looking good."

[Pacific Rim - Official Main Trailer]

Pacific Rim - Official Main Trailer

Dude, you almost made me drool on my keyboard!  Dang it, I need that thing!

Trucker Parking Simulator

Really.  This exists.

Equestria Girls. Yes, it's exactly what it sounds like.

Dear lordy, I can see the fan-art already. >.<

Want a link? =D

No thanks, I'll probably stumble onto 'em anyways. 

For the record:  I am totally cool with X-Com also being a Rainbow Six type squad plan & first person blast to go along with the geoscape.

Me too.  In fact, I'm sort of interested in that XCOM: Alliance game that was cancelled.  Give it a modern makeover and I'd buy it.

Hoo, can't believe I missed this trailer.

So far the gameplay looks tight, though I'm foreseeing complaints about continuity with Enemy Unknown, such as with the Sectiods standing up, where those fancy laser rifles went, etc.

I get the feeling some of you out there tried to do this at some point.

Ooop, sorry 'bout the delay.  Been hitting my head against the wall (aka writing/drawing) lately.  Also hit a speedbump logic-wise in-story, not to mention a bout of laziness with my off-time (do I want to do this or play another bout of StarCraft...).

Also trying not to panic whenever I see all the stating I still have to do. 

But I will post soon.  Might have to be some more off-the-hip dancing around, but it's what I live for, so hey.   

Equestria Girls. Yes, it's exactly what it sounds like.

Dear lordy, I can see the fan-art already. >.<

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. extended trailer

I'll have to wait until I can get it on DVD or find if ABC will offer it online in my area 

That is a much, much better trailer than the one shown during Once Upon a Time.

Lols to "someone really wanted to spell SHIELD."

If only hunting was this easy.

Small warning, the video is posted by a church's channel, just in case anyone actually cares about stuff like that.

For those interested in Guns of Icarus, The Game Station recently did multi-POV videos of a few deathmatches.  Looks fun, and it's pretty fun listening to Cox's crew.

The LT looks over to Gator.  Ever since Blake said the squad had been reactivated, the talking tow truck has been scanning more furiously.  He's also has a camera sticking out of his ring finger now, and is currently using it on Krav to look under crevices and inside any openings.

"They good to go yet, Gator?" the LT asks.

Gator just shakes his head.

"Ah really wish that ya'll would give me ah few hours notice before surprising me," [/I]he says as a tech works his way under Gator to work on whatever he's doing,[/I] "This stuff really shouldn't be rushed."

He backs up a bit, using his other hand to tap at his head.  You guess that this is the Transmech way of "scratching".

"Boy, Ah'd like to meet whoever did this.  These guys are running smoother th'n a cold beer on a hot summer's day."

He then turns back to Castle.

"Ah'ight.  Normal proced-e-ure is to walk you through this, but we're needin' to kick the tires right now.  If ya'll focus on your chest area, you should 'sense' a code thingy.  Ya'll be able to recognize it.  It's a code that'll let you open up your chest so's I can take a look at your Spark.  Ah could activate it m'self, but we need you to be able to do it yourself in case of emergency."

Gator holds his arms out, then taps his chest.  Before your eyes, his chest opens up, and inside you see all the machinery that is in him.  You also see what looks to be an oversized car battery labeled "SPRK Energy".

He turns to show Krav, then his chest closes back up.

"Now, just think all inward like, and ya'll be able to find it no problem."

You actually don't have anything like that.  Please roleplay discovering this fact.

[$!L] Harvey, if I ever find you have those pictures, or any such pictures of anyone, I will be donating what passes as your body to science. [/color]

[Gl17c|-|]- Heh.
[Gl17c|-|]- SPECTRE might not like you wrecking one of their supercomputers.
[Gl17c|-|]- Would probably take it out of your pay or something.

"Holy shit. That's fucking awful!"

Loco takes a breath.

"Listen, you know there's nothing you could have done to save the women. So, I'm skipping the platitudes and getting to the point: as soon as we're out of this room, we're going fucking Eleventh Commandment on these assholes."

Loco's eyes narrow.

"Thou shalt not get away with it."

Day closes his eyes and takes a few long breaths.  When he speaks again, it's much closer to 'normal'.

"Yeah, I know that there wasn't anything we could do.  Our demo guy realized that when he first spotted the bomb.  Took a back full of shrapnel pushing us out the door."

The LT coughs to get the rooms attention after everyone let's their thoughts be known.

"If I may say something," he says, continuing anyway, "While it is appreciated you finding this as the major crime that it is, I would like to point out that this was a singular case, caused by a drug lord with assistance from a level two rogue scientist.  There is much, much worse shit out there, and in many cases, we're the lone thin line that's keeping it from getting worse still.

"Like Day-3 so eloquently put it, this is the deep end of the war.  Some of you are old hands here," he gestures to SIL, Physeter, and Loco, "and your contributions were far from worthless.  Nevertheless, often times you were able to carry out your assignments to the best of your abilities because you had a chance to concentrate on them.  And that is difficult when you are declaring vendetta on most of the world.  There is a reason we don't tell this stuff to just anyone up front, even trusted agents.  Beyond the usual 'don't let your enemies know you know' things, of course."

He holds up his arms, indicating the room at large.

"And don't forget, it's been three months since then.  We have people already working on it, and have been able to make blows against Waffle's operations.  We even have PITFALL assisting in attacking at the sources, and surprisingly they've even been able to avoid screwing up long enough to make a difference."

"Besides," Pepper pipes up, "I doubt the high brass would prematurely reactivate you guys just to get vengeance on a guy that might not have had anything to do with your disappearance.  Though to be fair, I'm having trouble thinking of many reasons they would reactivate you guys when you are like this."

As if remembering something, Day pulls out his phone.

"Actually, *ahrum* that's been bugging me, too," he looks at the camera, "Hey Glitch, think you can clue us on what's going on?"

[Gl17c|-|]- Sorry, they ain't telling me anything.  They just told me to keep monitoring the room.
[Gl17c|-|]- Seems to be something going on right now.
[Gl17c|-|]- Just intercepted a heightened alert order to all local units in the South-Asian area, and I'm hearing rumblings of multiple deployments being arranged.
[Gl17c|-|]- Aaaand now they completely cut me out.  Sorry, man.

Saints Row 4 PAX Demo Gameplay

Soooo, dub-step gun.  Any way to stat that into Spycraft?
