Using screens from the talk show parody, Bionicle Sex has shone a new light on some of the greatest titles of all time.
Here are some solid examples. The thread kicks off with a very good interpretation of Fallout:

Bionicle Sex is still at it. Thank you, Bionicle Sex, for allowing both Eric Andre and gaming as a medium realize their true potential and purpose.
