Sissy: Welcome back to the boneyard, where two zombie schlubs are given an unlimited supply of popcorn, a pair of easy chairs, and the latest Wolfenstein videos!
Eggbert: I'd argue the whole schlub thing, but darn this roast beef sandwich in front of me needs some attention ASAP!
Sissy: As I thought. Amongst a load of trailers, comes our flick of the week, Beneath the Surface. A pretty interesting Enemy Territory video if I do say so myself. What I liked.. the music (I guess I was feeling rather hip today), the effects (minimal but tasteful), graphics and sound quality, and some half decent action. How about you Eggbert? What did you like the best?
Eggbert: Definitely the roast beef sandwich.
Sissy: As expected. What I didn't like... Classy credits but they ran for about one minute and 30 seconds. In-game text on the screen. I always find it makes the footage look dirty and less professional. But since I'm not a movie producer, and just a viewer, I have no idea if removing text is easy or not. Personally, I could care less who just got fragged, nor who did the fragging. Doesn't matter anyway since the text is usually not legible, so it's just a blur of garbage.
Eggbert: Yeah, so take THAT film makers!
Sissy: If you're all about the fragging, then Beneath the Surface is a good choice for download. It's pretty classy, action-packed, and apparently tastes like a roast beef sandwich.
Eggbert: That's my kind of flick! Next week how about we download some grilled cheese?
Sissy: Yeah, uhm, if you say so. So, a big over and out from this cat, giving Beneath the Surface 1.5 boners up!
Eggbert: I'll buy that.
