The PC version received "generally favorable reviews", while the GameCube version received "mixed" reviews, according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[4][5]

gollark: I think the only laser I have is in an unused DVD player somewhere.
gollark: Okay, wrong phrasing, proverbs mean things, but actually making decisions on the basis that someone said something catchy a while ago and people repeated (and probably edited) it is silly.
gollark: It would... probably be better to just say that you have other stuff to do, and ignore random proverbs.
gollark: You can't really "counter" common proverbs, they're not particularly meaningful.
gollark: The other GNU/Linuxy phone around is the PinePhone by Pine64, which is significantly cheaper, but less modular and whatnot.
