Haiku Fridays: Armageddon Anxious For E3

Posted on Friday, May 27 @ 16:37:19 Eastern by

The_Big_Cheese took the gold this week. PM me your details to receive your winnings. I've been playing Red Faction: Armageddon all week for Game Revolution's review and I gotta say, I think I should just keep this. Word from on high has come and informed me that this week we're giving away:


This week you dear readers are crafting syllables for a copy of Red Faction: Armageddon's official soundtrack as well as a figure set of Volition's upcoming destruction showcase. From my experience with the game, blowing sh** up never gets old. In particular, I've found that collapsing a building with enemies in it is the most satisfying way to dispose of baddies.

Of course, to write a haiku, you need a subtle touch. A winning haiku has to be classic, timeless, and downright memorable. Kind of like this scene from Big:


Off you go! Please try not to break your keyboards by dancing around on them for inspiration. We'll have no choice but to call you stupid.

    They are out of sync
    While playing that piano.
    I'm such a hater.

    And that second line is 7 syllables. I checked multiple dictionaries, "While" is one syllable, and it's "pi•a•no", not "pya•no". Depending on your accent, it can be different, so just getting that out there.

    As much as I'd like to own that prize, I'm drawing a blank for a haiku. This brings great shame to my family.
