I know! :lol:

It's funny watching the cut scenes with Astro and the others while he's in his classic look and they act like it's nothing new
Cora: Hi Astr... umm... why are you in your underwear?
Astro: What?
Cora: Why... are you in your underwear?
Astro: I... don't understand the question...

I thought the game was not too bad (it's not as bad as some of the other movie/tv games I've played). As with the others, I don't really like the bad lip sync, but at least it reminds me of my mom's dramas. XD There's also the game shortness issue and how big Zog was there. >_>

However, my sister and I LOVE to abuse the clothing code...in the middle of cutscenes. :lol: Too bad we have yet to get another nuck-chuck for her to join.

I still recall questioning Astro's only use of crawling in a hole big enough for him to walk in. But it was cute along with some of the lines.

"Look out below!"

(not exact) "But I'm just a little kid..."

I wonder how would Astro reload his butt machine guns? I wonder where the magazine goes.

My theory on the magazine loading is that each cartridge must be inserted via a special slot in the far back of Astro's torso cabinet, where the bullets are pulled down to the firing mechanism in his behind. This would also explain how sometimes there is a very short delay between the time he bends in preparation to when he opens fire.

I sometimes have to design realistic robotics for my science fiction comic, so I've given things like this a lot of thought. :lol:

Edit: And for any incarnation of Astro that fires lasers rather than bullets, I assume the lasers are concentrated samples of his energy supply.
