@Nyleveia: That's a great image, but this is a better concept. PS3 themes don't really make me THINK, y'know? Outside of "ooh aahh ohh".

When I was about 7, I ran Microsoft Flight Simulator on my PC Jr, pointed the plane about 90 degrees from the destination airport, and set it on autopilot. And waited. It eventually came across a grey landscape and kept going. I let it fly for some two weeks until my mom turned it off while cleaning up my room.

@scrapking: Source? Cus the above mentioned article doesn't go into details.

@Fedaykin: That's actually a much closer margin than I thought.

@Evdor: It's almost downright sadistic to create a geek culture narrative that doesn't make sense - the audience that cares the most continuity, and they have probably the worst modern example of narrative continuity still around. It's awesome!

@fearing: The tv show and original movie were written after the toys were already created, which is why narratively they are.... challenged to say the least. The odd synergy here is the fact that most games are made the same way - they build the sets, gameplay and the characters and then they write the story.

@kingcrim84: To you I'd recommend Holy Fuck, very much like Maserati, except a little more exciting.

@fearing: Ha! Just this morning I ran into a decepticon that was _really into_ transforming, like a lot. He also had this annoying invincibility thing. A very tedious transformer indeed.

@fearing: There are so many continuity errors, giant lapses of logic, and band-aids in the original comics and animated tv shows it'd be better for them to just start anew, i think

@seedypete: Unfortunately, bringing dead animals is not gift giving. It's not the worst anthropomorphic assumption, but it is one nonetheless. It's providing for the pack, yes, but only from a dominant to a submissive, so the wolf is most likely demonstrating dominance. Not exactly Santa Clause.

@Purple Dave: True. Although sometimes this has yielded hilarious results. LA Confidential was shot at a full print format, supposeldy allowing a crop for both 4:3 and 16:9. However no one told the DP this, and in the original 16mm 4:3 print sent to college cinemas, the boom mic is clearly in the frame on many shots.…

She's not advocating censorship, she's advocating increased options to the consumer.

@clevernamehere: I suppose, but this ad is so chock full of bizarre that's it hard for me to view it as any reasonable 80's era barometer.

@JennaW: You guys are crazy!

It's not that I don't like tattoos, I'm just not crazy about the color dark green.

Um, maybe it's just that YOU are growing up and Nintentdo isn't?

@reverend_green: Xbox, boxes

@Sean Godos: wat

@Mentuss: I think "Saved by the Bell"'s opening credits pretty much define the aesthetic of that era (late 80s-early 90s) more completely than any one example. And, for me, Atari ads do the same for the 70s....

@Ottoips: Nothing makes you "go" cross eyed, nothing you see at least. Stop listening to your mother!
