An amazing (and amazingly-expensive) DVD ripper. Can work with other disks.
I've used this to back up my old DVD discs into .iso files.

Spiderman, but with guns.
I get that this has some interesting core gameplay, but it's just not fun because the controls are too awkward.

Like scrabble with words, assemble phrases to do varying degrees of insult-damage.
This definitely should appeal to some people, but it doesn't appeal to me. I think this would be especially attractive to people with an Android phone.

https://www.android.com/
An operating system most notably on mobile phones, but also found on media boxes.
Fundamentally flawed - It is tethered to Google in as many ways as they've made possible. From a time server, to internet traffic compression. From google play requiring an account requiring your verified phone number. From hoops to download and install software from their store. It's fucking awful.

Be a gang member, run around in a sandbox world and shoot stuff, I guess.
It's alright.
Note that the original Saints Row - (2006 game) was only released for the Xbox 360.
- This is for a thing to do with software.

Extremely flexible, with the ability to provide a specific date/time, number of hours, minutes and seconds, etc.

A taskbar.
After some work, this can be made sensible. I prefer LXPanel or fbpanel.

Build and expand a space-faring race who learns they are not alone in the universe.
Master of Orion - (1993 game) but with updated graphics and a confusing interface. I expect would have loved this in the past, but now it's just awkward. I'll still tag this as 'liked', as it's pretty good. It's very hard in the eyes. Take a lot of breaks.
Extremely stupidly hard.. and confusing. I'm shelving it. I only paid $12 USD for it, so it's not a big loss.. still, I wish the UI was better and the tutorial was better and the gameplay was better..
