The Furious Gaming Geek Makes a Friend Named SEGA

The following message was sent to Sega via their website.

Ticket ID: XNA-856463
Subject: This is infuriating!

It is me, who is I, the furious gaming geek. Currently I am not furious, but merely peeved, for I cannot find a replacement instruction manual for Wolverine Adamantium Rage for the Sega Genesis, leaving me in a bind, not knowing how to master my berserker rages, and fastball specials.

This injustice cannot and must not stand!

Acclaim has been unresponsive to my many verbal requests, so I, who now am as furious as my sobriquet dictates, demand that you, SEGA, stand behind the seal of quality printed on my Box of Wolverine Adamantium Rage.

This has been a message from the Furious Gaming Geek, who is me.

The Post Script: Now that Sonic, who is a hedgehog, has a sword, how would he, Sonic the Hedgehog, fare in a fight with the Archangel Michael?

Sega Responded the selfsame day.

It is an honor to make your acquaintance, distinguished sir.

I did seek far and wide to procure the manual you so desire, but alas I am left with nothing but a VERY GOOD LEAD.

This looks like the place:

A gentleman by the name of Areala seems to have the manual you seek in the Adobe PDF format, and may be persuaded to share a copy with you, the man I am addressing now, the Furious Gaming Geek.

Best wishes and Happy Gaming!
Max at SEGA Support

Max, you are a good to he who is me, the Furious Gaming Geek, and you shall be rewarded in the afterlife, provided of course that souls exist. This question is a question whose answer is unknown to the Furious Gaming Geek. Rest assured, in this lifetime I will use your Shining Force effigy proudly, and use the egress spell only when necessary.

This has been a response from the Furious Gaming Geek, who is me.

The Post Script: So, I am to be aware that you have no answer on the Sonic question for you provided no answer as to this query. I’m sure your reasons were various and sundry, but you should not feel shame, Max, for you cannot have all the answers, or even hope to have as many answers as me, who is the Furious Gaming Geek!

And Sega:

Well then, it is a rare fortune, men of unimpeachable character regarding one another in this moment of unexpected mirth.

I know far less than there is to be known, and I am like to share less than that which I know, but I do offer sincere hope that if you do not find the answers you seek, that the answers you need are able to find you as you cut a path intrepidly, furiously, through this dim chapter in our collective history.

-Max
