  1. just scouring google images for every racing game with multilane highways from the late 90s
  2. every videogame will get boring after a while. We all know the real answer is cup and and ball: You never know which way that crazy ball is going to go!
  3. One of these days, Nintendo will release Super Mario Bros 2 part 2, and then all those "it's not a real Mario game" people will all look silly.
  4. it took me about a month to beat Battletoads, averaging about 5 runs a day (and using the 5 lives code).. So that would be around 750 lives.
  5. I remember being drawn to the Brach's pick-a-mix display as a kid, when my mom would take me to our local Safeway. The lemon ball and and orange ball hard candies always looked so good.
  6. by this (terrible) logic, everyone who didn't vote for them is innocent, which is the vast majority. (50% of the population is under age) and Hamas only received 44% of the vote. (Very slim victory over Fatah's 41%).. There have been repeated calls to hold new elections since 2010 which keep getting delayed or cancelled, and polling shows Hamas would have been unseated if it had gone through.
  7. The Sixth Sense was absolutely fantastic! Unbreakable... really good! Signs....um ok.. I guess? The Village... had a decent build up, but I predicted the twist from a mile away and thought: he probably needs to stop relying on being "the twist guy" The Visit... pretty good... except for cringey rapping kid. Also: yuck. Split.. very good... watch the post credits scene! Glass... the actually movie kinda lame, but cool that he tried to do his version of "Avengers" Knock at the Cabin... I really liked some of it.
  8. I've actively avoided some of his movies I consistently hear are awful: Last Airbender, The Happening, Lady in the Water.. so I couldn't fairly judge "the worst" category. and I just have no interest in After Earth.
  9. What's next? Squirrel nut zippers? Bit-o-Honey? Circus Peanuts? Necco Wafers?
  10. Ok... so not my favorites... not the best... but a game that epitomizes the genre and doesn't have too many features that deviate from the standard... Puzzle: Sakoban (Sort of like the more bare-bones predecessor to Lolo) Fighting: Street Fighter 2 Shootem-up: 1942 (early titles like space invaders are a bit too far removed from what the genre BECAME) Beatem-up: Kung-fu (also considered Simpsons or Double Dragon) Maze: Ms. Pac-man (I considered Wizard of Wor, Ralley X, but those all have extra gimmicks) Run n' Gun: Cuphead
  11. The school in this movie is just a few blocks away from the Goonies house.
  12. This is a pretty generous interpretation of what transpired. They withdrew their forces and instituted a 16 year long siege, turning Gaza, into what is widely decried as "the world's largest open-air prison". The living conditions (prior to this current bombardment) were so dire that the U.N. Secretary General described it as "hell on earth". In 2012, the U.N. issued a report warning that if Israel's policies didn't change, this area would become "unfit for human living by 2020". Israel limits their trade which has crushed their economy, leaving most of the population unemployed. And even before Israel bombed their hospitals and ambulances, there was already a full blown health crisis with inadequate supplies of medicine, and Israel denying travel permits to access life saving health care. Electricity only last a few hours a day because Israel limited the fuel going in. Most of their vehicles have had to be converted to run on cooking oil. Official documents from the files of Israel's defense ministry show that they even restricted food imports by calculating the number of calories per capita to keep it just slightly above the starvation level. Should I talk about Israel's response in 2018 to the marches they held each Friday to end the siege?
  13. Roles are in the process of going out. Game will start at 10pm VGS time (EST) on November 8
  14. Are you for real giving Link and I purity tests to see if we are opposed to genocide? What do you think?!
  15. I don’t think it had anything to do with the op… It was just a random thread that took on a life of its own as people got carried away with shitposting.
  16. While there are certainly many examples of flagrant antisemitism when considering the worldwide opposition to Israel’s actions, conflating these things is very much a bad faith means to discredit the criticism, especially when there are so Jewish voices who are also speaking out. Last week there was a massive demonstration in NYC where Jews protesting Israel shut down grand central station.
  17. I forgot to announce that clash at demonhead drawing I did is also up for grabs
  18. Henry Hatsworth in the puzzling adventure for the DS Scud the Disposable Assassin for Sega Saturn
  19. There was a big gap between critics and audience scores for the Super Mario movie. I guess it comes down to expectations. Critics are comparing it to other movies, and audiences just want to have a good time.
  20. As I've gotten older, I think I prefer Thanksgiving over Christmas. Gift buying is stressful for procrastinators like me.
