That right there is a photo of me celebrating my 27th birthday at Chuck E. Cheese's. It was a depressing, miserable experience, watching children mindlessly pump tokens into ticket redemption scams so they could walk out the door with a piece of plastic worth less than fifty cents.
Now, UFO Interactive will bring the experience of child exploitation into your home! A listing has cropped up on GameFly for a kart racing game based on the Chuck E. Cheese's license. Yes. This is a real thing that is scheduled for release in late October.
Thing is, they've more or less gotten rid of all the characters in the Chuck universe. Last time I was there, I didn't see anyone other than the titular mouse and the stage show was stripped down to just him. Who the hell else are they going to have playable? And why do I care?
If you'll excuse me, I'm going to go and drown myself in a bathtub now. Things like this just prove that life isn't worth living anymore.

25c Turtles 2 on easy mode = 45 minute playthrough on one credit. The other Chucks I've been too have Bucky O' Hare Arcade, the Punisher, and X-Men Arcade: all on easy mode for one quarter. That's badass!
Aside from Chuck, who the hell else is involved?
DAMMIT
A Chuck E. Cheese racing game?! What the fuck? Featuring who? You're right, they rid themselves of most of the cool, albeit wacky, characters I remembered as a kid. So, I wonder who the hell the racers will be?
A new Chuck E. Cheese opened up, near my place in Nor Cal. My sister took her two little ones there and I decided to go along. Boy, was I extremely super disappointed. Gone were the cool mini-rides, classic arcade games, mini-marionette shows and the creepy/cool Pizza Time Theater. Left was one lonely, still creepy, rat on a small stage and greasy, cardboard pizza. What have they done?! My nieces will never, ever know the win that was Chuck E. Cheese. I guess the Nolan Bushnell era of Chuck E. Cheese has long since passed. =`(

or if it would end up dragging it down if they ended up doing things like reusing ideas. In
any case, the real test of that will be when Portal 2 comes out, and we see just how far
the concept can go. But as a first game when considering all the aspects of it, like the
fact that it was released as a component of The Orange Box, and it isn't terribly expensive
as a stand-alone product, I'd say that its damn near perfect.
