Introducing...Maimtron 9000

You may notice a second gamertag in the blog. It's my second account, which is my personal one that I created at the start of 2009. Agent Superball will mostly be used for reviewing games, while Maimtron 9000 will be used for pure gaming.

Case in point, Maimtron 9000 only has to get the Professional achievement in Resi 5 to get the full 1000. I'm gonna try to give that a go later tonight.

So, just who is Maimtron 9000?
Maimtron 9000 is a robot appearing in Sam & Max Season Two.

After a brief cameo at the start of Reality 2.0, where he is also said to be Max' new presidential press secretary, the Maimtron makes his first true appearance at the start of Ice Station Santa. Sent to Sam & Max as a Christmas present, he kills Mr. Spatula, rearranges the street (moving Sybil's office to be in between Bosco's Inconvenience and Stinky's Diner), and tries to similarly thrash the office. Sam & Max defeat him by distracting him long enough to remove the wind-up key from his back.

While Sam and Max are busy at the North Pole, Jimmy Two-Teeth claims the remains of the Maimtron to set up a rat casino. In What's new, Beelzebub?, Sam uses the AI salvaged from the T.H.E.M. ufo (together with the power source Jimmy installed for casino use) to bring Maimtron 9000 back to life, and then uses him to pick up a coin-sized token from Ms Bosco's apartment.

The Maimtron 9000 often talks in quotes from "hideously middle-of-the road" pop songs (as Max describes it). When not busy causing widespread destruction, he likes to ponder matters of philosophy.
