OT - Looking for gratuitous cartoon violence?
 

If you are interested in massively multiplayer gratuitous cartoon violence, especially if you have kids, check out www.toontown.com. I spend quite a bit of time with my four-year-old playing (she can't read well enough to figure out some of the toon tasks), and we have a bLast. My older kids enjoy it as well, and even the old man has his toon and plays from time to time. Don't expect any major intellectual activity, but if you enjoy smacking around the evil Cogs with pies, selzer bottles, and the occasional dropped piano, check it out.

Oh, and if you see a silly looking red dog named Little Biggenfoot, that would be me.

Wow, I haven't used a non-IE browser since like Netscape 3.0 or something. That was so long ago. Now, in my opinion, IE is better, but Im used to it more.

So, have you tried it? Just curious what your impressions are if you have.

Don't feel bad, Katchoo, I'm 43. Of course I only play it for my kid's sake.... yeah, that's the ticket! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

For what it is, it is a surprisingly fun game. The tasks do get a bit repetitive after a while, but the interaction with other toons is quite well done, and the sense of teamwork when you are taking down a big Cog building is pretty cool.
