I think the word "with" is missing from that first sentence... ha ha... I watched this again circa 2021. I can see most of it, but at the end it's a dad that wants to make it with a teenage schoolgirl. Very creepy. I do enjoy his performances in many other movies. GGR as stated above, Usual Suspects, K-Pax, Terrible Bosses. I really liked his part as the journalist in Iron Will. You guys are right though. It's mainly all the same performance and character, just change the lines.

Pirate Pete's Porter Pourer?

Not to 4... or to 2.... unless further continuing on to 3. 5 is outright!

Quake?

Y's Books I, II & III I took down these games on the Analogue duo last week and weekend. They are a little bit of a slog, but there is a charm about them that shines through. I would have been blown away by these at the time they released. I enjoyed I and II much more than III. I didn't like the half-assed platforming format of III, but I don't hold it against them for trying something new. Just hold the sword button down and walk forward is basically how that one plays. I very much enjoyed the music in all the titles. There are some that really slap. I started Book IV, but I want to play some other titles before I come back to it.

RESCUE: The Embassy Mission on NES?

So, I looked them both up..... and we're both right. Ha ha. This plays in the opening of MM2 as the camera scrolls up the building right before the song changes to hard rock and the title appears. It is also the beginning of the end credits theme for MM1. That's just big video game for ya... reusing assets to save themselves a few pennies. Ha ha.

#4 is the definitely the intro to Mega Man 2. Not sure on the others.

The songs are not great and the whole thing is just weird. Not my cup of tea either Glazball. Plenty of better movies out there. I don't know why this one is held in such high regard. I do like Tim Curry though. Shame what's happened to him.

Jungle Strike? or Urban Strike?

A little known band called the Redwalls has a song titled "Thank You". It sounds like it is a lost Beatles song. I play it all the time.

It looks like a 2600 Minion. HABA GLABBA DOO ZZOOOOP!!

Shinobi III?

Chip and Dale : Rescue Rangers?

I get that Geography differences correlate to interest level. It would make sense that you wouldn't be much interested in hockey if you are never able to do it in a park, yard or on a pond. I'm in the midwest. Growing up, the public works would flood the park and make a big snow bank around it. It was cold enough at that time that the sheet would last from early Dec to late Feb. I've been looking around and don't see a ton I can pipe in as far as the hockey themes beyond the big ones mentioned above. I've shifted my focus to music I can play while the Zamboni is driving. The shop theme from Earthbound is definitely going to get a play. There is a version of it by Tom Brier on Youtube that is amazing. I'm thinking "game shop/store" themes might be a better fit for while the zamboni is going. Any recommendations there?

Yes, actually. I know it's fun to crap on sports titles, but hockey games are IMO the best sports games made. Usually the more arcadish games age better because they don't have specific rosters and are more action oriented. You're missing out if you don't give Ice Hockey (NES), Blades of SteeI (NES), NHLPA 93 (GEN), NHL 94 (GEN) or Hit the Ice (Arcade) a try. I like to spray to all fields when playing games and sometimes that sports itch just needs to be scratched.

The commodore music is pretty cool. Especially for an older computer game. It's a little rough to be piping in over a loudspeaker though. Was the commodore known for good music? I was born too late for those and mostly only played games on console. The NES was my first system.

What hockey games have the best original music tracks? No licensed music allowed here. Ice hockey and Blades of Steel immediately come to mind. Does anyone know any other tracks that are bangers? I run a hockey tournament that goes this weekend. I was able to slip some Blades of Steel music in during warmups last year. It was awesome seeing real people skating around to that tune. I'm looking for some more tracks to splice in here and there. Thanks All. Capuano Classic 2024 - No info.pdf

Alien Syndrome?

I went last year and was blown away. It was my first video game convention, so I don't have anything to compare it to though. I thought the free play arcade & console area and the vendor hall had so much it was overwhelming (in a great way.) There was always something going on or something to do. I never imagined in my life that I would see the Mortal Kombat actors/characters on stage together singing covers of pop songs, but hot dog did they ever. Never a dull moment. I'd like to go back, but we'll see how the old schedule shakes out. The coolest thing at the show last year was the department store mockup with all the old displays and demo cabinets. I believe it was an old NA group that did it. It really felt like you were transported back to any electronics department in the 90's. Thank you again to that guy/group. You could really tell that one was a labor of love. I also loved to see all the CRT's still running and not in a landfill. Show your CRT's some love.

Symphony of the Night?

I don't know what it's from, but that little ice man is some cool sprite work. Fire & Ice?

I voted NES, but collect for all the cartridge systems. For all the systems, I am usually looking for games that I either played as a kid and have fond memories of, or games that I know are good and I want to play through on original hardware. I'll never have a complete NES set, but that is the system I will buy games for simply because I don't have them already. (So long as the price is right) I have a decent amount of disc games as well, but most of those I bought at the time the system was relevant and the rest were given to me by friends/family, etc. I just don't feel like shelling out money for discs because of their fragility, disc rot, and any system with moving parts is going to crap out eventually.

It looks like the drawings or symbols in an equipment owner's manual. lol. I've got no idea what this would be. I can't even recognize what system this is by the graphics.
