Sometimes I really want to pack it all up and quit while I'm ahead.
That's how I felt when I first heard that I'll have a bit part in the upcoming XBLA/PC/WiiWare title Retro City Rampage. I wasn't sure it could get any better than that. Then McNyers made that comic about me, and I almost cried. A few months later, I saw my name in the credits of Cave Story 3D under the "Special Thanks" section. I had no idea that was going to happen, and I'm still not sure why it did. Thank God I had already written the review for the game before I read the credits. I don't think I could have comfortably scored it otherwise.
After that, the me stripping inside of an exploding Max Scoville gif happened. Then sometime after that, the me as a Seaman-like cat drinking from a toilet gif happened, and after that, the cake pops gif happened, and after that, I was seen counseling Sonic on his disassociative identity disorder issues. Then my Constructoid persona ended up in a custom made level in the upcoming 3DS title Pushmo. Finally, the Max Scoville having sex with me as a pinata gif was born. I thought that I'd finally seen it all.
I was wrong. McflyGold/TaraLongGif just took things to the next level. I am now a part of the greatest video ever made. If I disappear forever after this post, you'll know why. It's all going to be downhill from here.
I'll admit, when EA Sports' Andrew Wilson took to the stage during Microsoft's Xbox One reveal, I tuned out. If memory serves, I used the opportunity to take a much needed trip to the bathroom because I was certain there would be nothing there to hold my interest.
I was wrong. Hopefully, it's not too late for us.

There isn't much to say about this that isn't better expressed through song, but there is one interesting piece of trivia to share. Sexy Luke is played by Capcom Fan Art legend and former Boondocks artist [name withheld per request]. That's pretty awesome.
Other than that, I don't have much to say. Just watch the video.
