Anyway, earlier on I had crawled into this house, where someone was playing WWF Smackdown. When this huge person had finished, me and a few buddies, carried the CD all the way to our large hive...nest...whatever we Ants live in. Anyway, we took it to Queen Antonia so she could inspect it, and she asked me a question, as I am the gaming expert for ants. She asked "What is better, the slower, more technical WWF games, or the button pushing, 10 hit combos of beat 'em ups such as Tekken, Street Fighter or Soul Caliber?" I went away and thought about this, and I came up with the answer that they are both different. While WWF games may not be as rewarding as the 10 hit combos, you still feel quite a lot of pleasure when deliver a chokeslam, or whack someone over the head with a steel chair. Also, in beat 'em ups, you will not have a stroyline, in which WWF games do kind of have, and you get more titles, or rewards, in a WWF game. There are quite a lot of differences. I went and played them both on the miniature Playstation (well, it may seem miniature to you, anyway), WWF Smackdown and Tekken 3. I like them both, but the are quite different to each other. Queen Antonia asked me for an answer, and if I didn't give the right one, she would eat me for her lunch. The right answer (to her, anyway) was that beat 'em ups were best, as she loves beat 'em ups. I know that was wrong, but I didn't feel like being eaten.
Don't ask me why I told you that, it was just a little story form my daily life as an ant. I get such a better life than the digger ants, who dig all day, while I play games on the miniature consoles!!! IT'S SO COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for reading, form your local ant, you never know, I could be crawling into your house one day, Ant.
PS I did take the game back, by the way.
:)
2) No, I'm the gaming ant. I used to be the assistant but as I said my boss got eaten by Queen Antonia 'cos he said he couldn't get a PS2 'cos of the shortages. I review all the games and recommend stuff like that. You see, our scientists have a shrinking mechanism, and about a million ants carry a console, or a gamer, or anything like that, to the scientists, who then shrink them, and then we can play on them with no troubloe whatsoever. Ha ha ha, we are very technologically advanced, but we keep it well covered up. We're so advanced that we have a machine that can create replicas, so we don't have to steal things all the time. Apart from food, of course.
3. As I said above, we miniaturise everything, so there's no problem being really small. WE ARE SO CLEVER!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, the scientists anyway.
Thanks for reading, Ant.
However, I have a few questions to the ant.
1) Why does your kind always invade my window every Christmas?
2) Are you a worker ant? (We actually don't know any other kind. And I really don't expect you to be Queen.)
3) How hard is it to type, being the size of an ant and all?
(I expect you have to scuttle over every letter, and jump up and down until the letter appears. I am right, yes?)
