@chillychili: Not really; that's an action game (specifically, it's a rail shooter). You're right that racing (and fighting) is another big genre left out (simulation in general seems to have been passed by); my comment was made specifically because I remember seeing TIE Fighter on the ballot, and being disappointed…

@MrThunderfield: Yeah, because we just want to save people's lives, not actually care about them. Empathize a little.

@aLynHall: Those isolated numbers up there don't represent continual spending - something like the defense budget represents new projects invested in every year. There's a lot of pork, of course - defense is where the money is, so it's where people looking for money will go. By and large, though, a lot of that…

@matthewabel: I think the comparison is still valid - a brand new car is probably a better investment than a lottery ticket.

If every summer flop could be as fun as Speed Racer, then I look forward to seeing whatever it is.

Not a single flight sim game (space, air, anything). Really disappointing that an entire genre is ignored.

This is like comparing the cost of a lottery ticket to the cost of a fast-food meal. Yeah, one may potentially be worth a whole lot, but it represents an infinitesimal chance of success.

@Daminshi: This just in! Team Fortress 2 player angry when Team Fortress 2 stops getting unprecedented amounts of extra content and moves down to simply "slightly more than everything else gets."

@Kayonesoft: Once that darn evolution chime stops and we stop flashing.

@DisturbingClown: I wouldn't, but then again, I'm not a soulless ant (much less a terrifying ball of them). So there you are.

@GORNMagazine: How apropos.

@trimeta: I think there's a very good chance that it doesn't recount the "true brutality" if it's fanfiction.

@Walternate: No, I'm just a doofus. I hit the "ALT" key a few times in the "ASCII Venus" setting after trying out the "Kernel Linux" setting. I assumed that "ASCII Venus" was simply a type of code, when in fact it was an... ASCII Venus de Milo. I thought it was an Easter egg.

Deadpool with a hammer?

@BlackStones: I die a little inside every time I see one of these. The worst is their Valentine's special. It is. The. Worst.

@Walternate: Continue typing after your get the "Access Granted" message. Just try it.

@emeraldcite: What's funny is that the Adult Swim parody of Thundarr made it, even if Thundarr did not.

So what's this article about then?

@Mythos: There are many similarities between little children and teenage males, especially in the realms of things such as "judgment" and "taste."
