    Mirman's attempts at comic relief are nothing but poorly-timed and dim-witted interruptions.

    SimAnt was one of the first games I played, after Warcraft I. Way under-appreciated in my opinion.

    Also, did they stop this series of videos? I know they still have the radio podcast, but I miss seeing these.
