But if not for the Greatest Video Game Player of the Century Billy Mitchell, who's celebrity hot sauce would we buy?

Billy Mitchell wins! TG scores reinstated!* ...or he loses! Honestly, it was just a settlement. Kinda anticlimactic really. *Billy's scores were "reinstated" as part of Twin Galaxies' "historical database."

The anthem of 1990. Better than the original. If Ice Ice Baby is a 10, Under Pressure is a 2.

Yeah this song is overplayed, but Led Zeppelin as a whole is big 10. And I'd wager that Stairway was the introduction to Zeppelin for 90+% of VGS. Probably via Wayne's World. I have pretty solid impressions of the first time I sat down and just listened to Zeppelin IV in high school. That album is a masterpiece, Stairway included.

We got McRibs at home. McRib at home:

Dill Havarti and Swiss cheese toast with creamy tomato penne soup.

Man I wish Atari would have been earlier to market with this. I picked up the 77 less than a year before the 2600+ was announced. Can't really justify it now.

Well I guess I'm interested after all the praise. Downloaded from PS+. Now all I have to do is actually open it up.

Hold my beer.

Sweet, what does mine say?

Yeah, the kid's amazing. I just learned about that rolling technique a week or two before this happened. Can we get @Blue Scuti on the forum please?

I'd give Kubrick a 10 on the Reed scale. I've seen most of these and am interested in the rest. It was a tough call choosing a favorite among Dr. Strangelove, 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, and The Shining. 2001 and The Shining are staples of my two favorite movie genres to be sure. But I probably come back to Clockwork Orange the most frequently. As for the "controversy" surrounding the ending, I think Kubrick's is a great juxtaposition in contrast to author Anthony Burgess' original vision and theme, and both ultimately propose the same question: If modified behavior is externally enforced, does it actually change the nature of the subject and instil actual reform? According to Kubrick and Burgess respectively (my own interpretation):

What, no Moon landing?

They were all alright. I'm about a 5 on the series and didn't bother with the 4th one. Funny enough but I'm not big into Depp or pirates. I'd watch it if my wife decided to put it on.

As a player, I'd have to see at least a couple killer apps that bring this beyond the Nintendo/FC homebrew scene. If it had Sivak's Battle Kid 3 or KHan's Larry 2 exclusives I'd be in. I imagine you'd have to pay out guaranteed funds starting at $10k (a liberally low number) to get exclusives not including production costs of the software. And any existing known devs would still have to be willing to jump ship from the established NES/FC platform which wouldn't really make sense since the current scene is really about the passion for the system we all grew up with and have played for the past thee decades. You would have to have produce something seriously special to make even the smallest impact on the scene as entrenched as it already is. TLDR: Battle Kid 3 or Larry 2 exclusives and I'm in.

A new @KHAN Games game? Fuck I'm out of the loop. Backed!

Had it at an 8 based on my initial impressions but knocked it down to a 6 after thinking about it. I really did enjoy it and there was plenty of cool references for all generations of Mario fans. I'll watch it whenever the kids put it on. Jack Black really brings me out of it with the Peaches song though. Just terrible.

No, I'm Santa!
