"How DARE you."

I cannot believe what I just witnessed in Pikmin, I knew leaving the Pikmin behind will cause them to die but this was awful. There I was, hoping everyone was safe, watching the cut scene of the ships taking off and what's that? It is a little blue Pikmin running desperatly to reach the ships in time, as they flew off he fell over just missing the oppertunity to make it and just as that happened a giant frog came from behind and ate him...

It nearly brought a tear to my eye, the poor thing, it tried to make it back... I couldn't save it, I should have payed more attention.... IT WASN'T MY FAULT!

Well benny seems to be cocking all your games up recently, blame it on him.

Yeah it was Ben's fault I left the Pikmin behind and.... and.... OHHH the poor thing.

If only you could have held out one second longer.....

Dringo seems to have stumbled accross Miyamoto's smoking substance that was used when making this game. ;-)

::puff:: "Oh my god !!! Mr blue Pikmin is in trouble ! Mr blue Pikmin ! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!"

Like a cartoon version of an action movie where the main guy watches his friend get blown apart in front of him. ;-))

Thats nothing compared to the tradgic events of yesterday for me. We had a, shall we say, accident in the yellow Pikmin bomb squad...*sniff* poor little guys, they were just trying to help me get my massage machine back :(

I've lost a few Pikmin here and there...


Still, the worst case was on the fourth area.
Near the landing area there's a spaceship part high up-only yellow Pikmin can reach it. Problem is, you have to take them across a thin winding ledge to get to it.

Naturally, most of them fall off and drown horribly! :-(

But even when they had got the piece and I thought I was in the clear, it was far from over. I watched horrified as the yellow critters refused to take a safe path and carried the machine part off the ledge and into the water!

I instantly reset them machine.


AND they're meant to be intelligent too...

That's emotional gaming for you!

It's things like this in games like these that makes me mad!

I know that bit. I took the yellow guys over the narrow bridge 5 at a time. I actually walked away to do something else once I had enough of them there - assuming they would find their way to the ship ok. I'd only turned my back a few seconds when I heard a big "sploosh" and the sounds of dozens of my Pikmin drowning in terror.

I... tried... to save them.... I... tried...

*breaks down into tears*

Damn dirty giant frogs.
