I believe I have heard this melody on just about every instrument & non-instrument instrument out there. While it's wonderful and classic, it's time for some other game melodies to take over! Vampire Killer is a great one, Green Hill Zone from Sonic The Hedgehog, the toilet rap from Parappa the Rapper.

I'm with you! I love games dammit! I love Civ V on the PC, I love GTA 5 on my console, I love Zelda on my 3DS! The narrative should be more "games are awesome," and less "games are awesome, but way better on X platform."

Oh honey, that stung.

I really hope that they find those allegedly buried cartridges. It's such a cultural touchstone for many gamers, it would be awesome to have it validated.

Excellent point. Gigantic plot-hole because she had fought Ridley in the events directly preceding the game! How does Yoshio Sakamoto explain that, because he wrote both games...

I want to politely disagree. Yoshio Sakamoto wrote & directed it, he is a paid designer for Nintendo, and they signed off on it. I would argue that Nintendo is very much responsible for what they publish.

I completely understand where you're coming from, and I definitely feel that your points are valid. It's a tricky issue to be sure, though that does not change how I feel about it.

While I don't disagree, I would say that those examples are slightly less egregious than anything in Other M. And really, Assuming that you could get through the first game fast enough back then, I'm pretty sure that reveal was meant to shock, not titillate.

Does Nintendo just not, understand why people like Samus? Or Metroid for that matter?

I've been working in the veterinary medicine field for 9 years. Let me tell you Brian, people that breed dogs, and people that show dogs are some of the strangest you will ever meet. Watch Best In Show sometime if you haven't; that movie is not funny because it's exaggerated, all those people exist.

Oh no, a wheelie! Stop popping them, I'm not resisting!

But fret not! The country's XP task force is on the case and wearing sweet matching jackets.

Whoa. Those S&M Man lyrics are beyond disturbed. That is one sick bastard, whoever wrote it. None of the members/prospective members objected to any of this? Please tell me that there was someone who saw how screwed up it all was and left. I'm holding out hope that at least one person saw that they were entering…

Yes! I echo the sentiments that this brings me back to my late-teen years! I loved that they kept the old aspect ratio of the site up as a gag; quintessential Brothers Chaps style!

This has happened to me!

I've actually gotten back into Civ V, and I'll tell you, this crap drives me nuts. It's one damn turn!

I hope you're kid-ding.

Oh geez, I didn't even make that connection, but you are 100% right!

I built a PC for recording music, but it also runs games pretty well. I think I have to add a new game to my PC...
