You heard me. It rocks. I don't care how many Up Yours and Deadliest
Sin are in it, or how you're violating the Grouping Rule by using
Nakova and Rico Loco together. Maybe you've played it a few
times and gotten ousted before your predator's second turn. Maybe
you even finished your burrito before the game ended.
I don't care. All the decks you were playing against were just as
great as yours. I love you.
Just a friendly reminder.

Actually, it was pretty good. In game one, I managed to complete Mr.
Magma's sinister scheme in spite of facing down Iron Monk, Dr. Mensa,
Firefly and Salamander. And that in spite of discarding my Jail Break
card on turn one, since I didn't know at the time how crucial it would
be to my chances of success. (Though I didn't actually manage to break
poor Gargantua out of jail, technically speaking.)
The second game wasn't quite as good, as Matt successfully
accomplished Cyber-Scream's goal of stealing the Martian Moon Ray and
getting it back to her headquarters, but I did bring Orchid to justice
by mind-controlling two of her henchmen in the same turn and having
them attack her. And Brain Child never got beaten up in spite of his
zero Endurance.
Of course, since you weren't there Monday night, you have no idea what
I'm talking about...

Yeah, see, my attempt to inspire a combination of curiosity and guilt
in you in order to get you to show up on Mondays really doesn't work
when you smiley back at me.
Work with me here, dude.

Bah! I hate sequels! You get yourself up for them, thinking you'll
get to relive the magic. But in the end, they're just never as good as
the originals.
Fred - gonna reread "Your deck sucks" out of frustration...

Wrong. Back to the Future II and Empire Strikes Back are both better than
the original. But they're exceptions I'll grant you that !

Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo.
(OK, I've never seen it, or the original - I just like typing
'boogaloo'.)

As well you should. Other sequels better than originals:
-Terminator II
-Aliens (well, Alien is really good too, but Aliens is just as good
and arguably better).
-Road Warrior
-Not that it is yet a classic of cinema or anything, but I think
Hellboy II was better than Hellboy I (although Hellboy I was
excellent).
-Kill Bill II (I don't know if that actually counts, and as my wife
points out, Kill Bill I gets better the more you watch it).
-Uh, VTES:II?
Ok, done now.

Never !! So hollywoodian...

Well, we really don't have the same tastes. For me this Doomlike is by far
the worst of the 4.

Didn't see it yet.

And they are like 2 parts of the same movie, so not sure it counts.

The Leningrad Cowboys : "Meet Moďse" is at least as good as the first.
But most of the time, the sequels are worse, like in Lethal Weapon, Indiana
Jones (2nd worst of all, none as good as Raiders), and, errr, Alien,
Terminator... ;)
Orpheus, different tastes (and disarm).

I say this full well knowing the implications and risks. And knew the
dangers when I joined this outfit. But damn it! I'm doing it anyway!
Are you on crack?

It's not really a Doomlike, given that it came out before Doom and
almost certainly helped to inspire it. So far as I know, any kind of
"space marines in space fighting space monsters" story that's
post-1986 is going to turn out to be heavily influenced by Aliens, if
not a clone of it. (Unless I'm missing what you're getting at here.)

Tastes vary. I rate the original Star Wars as one of the greatest
movies I've ever seen. Empire Strikes back was good, but not in the
same league. It wasn't as crisp. And the reason I hear most people
say Empire was darker always comes down to "it was darker". Darker
does not make better IMO.

That's not because the sequel was so great. That's because the original
was so poor!
