Every one of us has that awesome geeky friend with all of the incredible fan paraphernalia lined across the walls. "Dang … How did you get all this crazy stuff?" we always ask. And, inevitably, the answer is always the same: they were able to snag their awesome swag at an awesome convention that we couldn't afford to go to. Rats.
I have fond memories of Space Quest II. Really fond memories. When my parents bought a Tandy 1000 HX back in '88 - our first computer - Space Quest II was one of the two games they brought home with it (the other was Thexder). And while my little seven year old self didn't get very far, I played that game day in and day out. So when the word "Two Guys from Andromeda" showed up in my Google Reader today, you'd better believe my ears perked up.
