If they're coding in C instead of C#, it might be because of a lack of delegates.
Yeah, that's right. A politics joke AND a programming joke in one line. Double Nerd Score, bizzles.
More seriously: I'm really excited for this game, and kinda depressed it got delayed. It was one of the bright spots to May.

Stop it, Mr. President!
Heheh, thats what you get for not hailing to the chimp.
samfish @ May 5th 2008 12:38PM
They probably had to add in an angry gorilla preacher who scares all the little white sheep voters or something.
Lone Starr @ May 5th 2008 1:37PM
So many stereotypes in one short sentence...
TheHuntIsOn @ May 5th 2008 12:41PM

Tristan Scatliffe @ May 5th 2008 12:57PM

HighFiveJesus @ May 5th 2008 8:16PM
simpsons quotes are always a safe bet
J.Goodwin @ May 5th 2008 1:04PM
I'm still a little fuzzy on whether this is "Hail to the Chimp" or "Heil to the Chimp." Does this game have any genocide?
John Z @ May 5th 2008 1:29PM
Dodos, aurochs, and passenger pigeons.
Erik Novak @ May 5th 2008 1:39PM
just like the democratic primary!
born2kill @ May 5th 2008 1:46PM
Is this endorsed by the Simpsons creators???
TheOverlord#2 can has Mario Karts?(MK:2578-3517-9859) @ May 5th 2008 3:12PM
What's so great about this game?
(Yes, that short of a comment)
LaughingTarget @ May 5th 2008 3:29PM
Mini-games using animals that parody political figures. It's going to be irrelevant by the time it launches anyway, given the cover art is of a president that is going to be leaving office soon.
TrojanGuy @ May 5th 2008 8:32PM
Yeah this game is coming out a few years too late to be incredibly relevant.
Matt @ May 6th 2008 1:53AM
The monkey isn't a caricature of Bush or any other human politician, living or dead. Nor are any of the other animals in the game. I'm in a position to know.
TrojanGuy @ May 6th 2008 2:12AM
http://www.bushorchimp.com/ disagrees with you, Matt. ;)
Matt @ May 6th 2008 11:20AM
Just because the internet is full of tedious "Bush = chimp" jokes does not mean we put them in the game.
Besides, Crackers is a monkey, not a chimp.
