About 9 on a scale of 1-10. Also, your cursor changes to SAWII. Clever, but useless.

That is pretty lame... particularly since penguins occupy about, what, three minutes?

This is Sony... were you expecting anything different?

Another title trying to capatilize on the success of March of the Penguins (by using similar style fonts) is Penguins Under Seige... but at least it's about Penguins:

It's borderline deceptive.

Is it any good? I saw Penguins Under Siege 2: Dark Territory on cable and it sucked.

Is that the real new WM box? I mentioned that box art a couple months ago as preliminary here when we first bitched about it. I was pretty sure they changed it to only show 50% penguins because even Sony realised they were going a bit far. I have the original WM version so never followed up.

Forget that... Penquins Alone 2: Lost In New York from what I hear is a definiative classic.

(Well.. that and Penquin Floyd Live At Pompeii too lol)

Peter Pan-guin

You Can Fly! You Can Fly! You Can Fly!

Think of the presents you've brought
Any merry little thought
Think of Christmas, think of snow
Think of sleigh bells Here we go!
Like a reindeer in the sky
You can fly! You can fly!
You can fly! You can fly!

Soon you'll zoom all around the room
All it takes is faith and trust
But the thing that's a positive must
Is a little bit of pixie dust
The dust is a positive must
You can fly! You can fly!
You can fly! You can fly!

When there's a smile in your heart
There's no better time to start
It's a very simple plan
You can do what the birdies can
At least it's worth a try
You can fly! You can fly!
You can fly! You can fly!






There's Jessie the yodeling cowgirl. Bullseye, he's Woody's horse. Pete the old prospector. And, Woody, the man himself. Of course, it's time for Woody's RoundUp. He's the very best! He's the rootinest, tootinest cowboy in the wild, wild west!
