Nah, Joystiq comments fail at supporting less-than symbols.

I swear dysentery has to be programed to hand out dysentery 3 times more than any other death. I'm always dying of it.


Oh and I wish I was clever enough to make a cool Chuck Norris Oregon Trail joke.

WTF is up with the wanna be Japanese RPG character designs? That's enough to kill it for me.

If this (or some variation of it) comes out for the iPhone I will purchase 100's of copies. I want to tap on a buffalo and carry home 200 pounds of meat.

This brings back great memories, I recall in the forth grade where me and my friends would just hunt buffalo all day. O and the river rapids was a treat.

Fourth grade.

"Forth" grade would imply something about striding forward with grades rather than a whole number between three and five.

Why is it 'fourth', but forty is spelled forty and not fourty?

This is bullshit. My phone doesn't get any good games. Not MGS, not this. All I get is fucking Cake Mania or some crappy licensed junk. Bah.

Actually Cake Mania is not that bad.

And try Tornado Mania. It is the best cell phone game ever. 10/10 from IGN Mobile as well.

I can't wait to attempt to ford the river and die in the process.

Oh yes, seeing your friends and classmates die of dysentery along the trail seemed tragically hilarious until you actually looked up dysentery.

I grew up in Oregon so I always assumed as a child that Oregon Trail was specific to our state; that no other students in the U.S. enjoyed the massacre of grueling paces and barebones meals.

Ahh Mecc, from number munching to allowing kids to shoot animals in school. The late 70's and 80s was a different time... Mecc was the publisher of the games btw for those who don't remember or those too young, it was the Minnesota Educational Computing Consortium later Corporation... ahh good times, and if you all want to play the original Oregon Trail along with a bunch of other Apple IIe and Apple IIGS games, head on over virtualapple.org ...

They have all the classics and you can play them online with a special plug-in for Firefox and I.E.... The catch and irony is that the plug-in only works for the moment works on Windows, but they are supposedly working on a Mac version. You can get the disk images to use with an emulator however, anyway enjoy...

LOL I remember in 3rd grade, if we got our work done early we could play Oregon Trail on the one computer in the class :P I think it may have been the first computer game I ever played :)
