I have no mouth and I must scream - Deep One - 08-18-2012
Have you guys heard about this science-fiction horror story?
The story takes place 109 years after the complete destruction of human civilization. Mastercomputer AM has killed everyone except 5 people, which he keeps alive and tortures...forever. You can read it from here.
Studio called Dreamer's Guild also made a video game based on it in 1995. Game is psychological horror point-and-click game, so I think you guys will be interested. I have no mouth and I must scream intro

Yeah, I always thought it was the shit, especially how stupendous the expression is. Then the game, oh shit, it has the greatest voice-acting I've ever heard. If I was to be tortured forever, I might begin to act like a masochist, "Oh yeah! Tell me how much you hate me! Tell me I'm filth, scum; the tiniest speck on the pimple on the butt of the smallest ameba, perhaps?"

Hmm... No, I have not heard of this story.
But that title reminds me of that one scene in the first Matrix movie.

I quite enjoyed Reloaded as I think it built up to a decent climax. The last one, though....

I never read the story, but I played the game a few years ago and loved it. Only bad thing I remember about it is, it's so extremely riddled with bugs that you pretty much have to use a walkthrough. Because even a simple thing like picking up items in the wrong order can make the game go into a bug frenzy and become entirely unsolvable... dunno though, maybe there's a patched version available somewhere?

Actually, I kinda liked the last one. The ending was kinda "Wtf, why?"'ish but I liked when Keanu gets his eyes destroyed >: )

Awesome game, played it last year with an emulator! I especially like the voice acting and the locations in the game.
The book "I have no mouth and i must scream" written by Harlan Ellison seems to be quite succesful!
I'll probably read it someday
