Linus and Jay are playing the Tony Hawk 3 video game for the PC. They're presently using the cheats which can let you be huge or tiny, let's your environment have the gravity of the moon or act like it's ice as well as a number of other possibilities.
I have a proposal of my own: No Pads Mode.
No Pads Mode would be like regular mode, except that whenever you fall the skateboard wouldn't immediately reappear below your feet to start up again. Instead, your head would explode, your limbs would fall off, or one of dozens of other gruesome fates. For people like myself who don't really play video games to see what I can do (but rather play to watch the pretty pictures and neat features), it would be really cool.
I'm sure the
PTC and like-minded organizations for video games would have a cow, but the game makers could simply say they're stressing the importance of wearing helmet and pads when one goes skateboarding!

Please note that any comment on a post more than 30 days old will go into the moderation queue, where I will get to it when I can which could be once a week.
