Themepark days are the best days. Unless it rains and all the rides shut down, but that's still fun because the tea cup rides are still going and you get soaking wet. ...It's possible my definition of "fun" is a bit off.
Do you ever see what Gordon looks like ever? But man, that sounds cool and creepy and awesome. I want to blow things up in the microwave! And I love it when games include things like that to make the world feel real, or when they spend the time to program things that should really be there but don't have a purpose in the game but that you can still access. Makes it seem that much more real.
The Metrocops sound awesome, and by awesome I mostly mean really disturbingly creepy. And man, it sounds like Half-life 2 is really good with the atmosphere. (Parts of this description remind me of Beyond Good and Evil and I'm not sure why. Probably more because of what I thought BGaE was going to be like and less of what it actually was. Hmm.) Man. Gotta try playing it sometime, although I have the sneaking suspicion I'll be useless.
Also, Dog sounds awesome. All robots should be programmed to dance.
If there was anyway I could flail and force you into playing The Bard's Tale without being a complete jerk, rest assured I would be doing it. And, um, also if I could do it and not be worried that you wouldn't like it and hate me forever.
WHAT TONY JAY IS DEAD? He was so one of my favourite voice actors ever, up there with James Earl Jones and... uh... I can't think of anyone else. I'd say Steven Russell if I'd played Thief, but. I have to go buy everything Tony Jay was in now. (I don't know if you've seen ReBoot, but he was Megabyte's voice actor.)
There should be some sort of test for good voice actors: "Would you want to hear them read the phone book? And would it be interesting?" I would so listen to Tony Jay reading the phone book.
I so read my spam subject lines every so often to laugh. Hilarity! I thought I got one once that said it was from President Milkman which made me think of Psychonauts, and the Milkman running for office, but it didn't actually say that at all.
