The Situation Room 2.0

[HumanDawn]

I've always been fond of plague doctor designs for their creep factor. What is Zero from? You might have mentioned somewhere and I missed it.

Zero is from the third game in the Zero Escape trilogy series, but there are other Zeros. It just came out a few weeks ago and I went through the story in 25~ hours in the span of the 50 or so hours I had it downloaded on my 3DS. Zero Escape is an amazing trilogy of Visual Novels whose gameplay revolves around decision making and solving puzzles. The first entry on the DS is 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors and at first it wasn't that interesting, but when I was hooked I'd stay up till like 3AM to get one ending. Its soundtrack is also perfect. Whoever composed the soundtrack knew how to make it easier to connect with what is going on and was also optimally placed - if the story wanted you to feel sad, happy, scared, excited or just grossed out, it would all be aided by the music.

Just listen to this track and try honestly telling me it does not weird you out in the slightest:

This track is also one of the more emotional video game sountracks out there:

DS emulation is possible but a remastered version with better 2D sprites is coming out soon on Steam.

Ooh yeah, I've heard a lot of good things about the Zero Escape series but haven't had a chance to try it out myself yet. I'll have to be on the lookout for that Steam release once I've got money again.

Those puns are so bad.

Not quite the reaction I was looking for. -_-

Who needs forum search when you have Google?

I shall keep making chemistry puns until all the good ones Argon...and probably afterwards, too.

And I shall face palm each time

I like science, and I like wordplay.

You might say that, when it comes to chemistry puns, I'm in my element.

That was admittedly a good one.

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

Yes well, I reserve the good ones for when the pressure's on.
