Oh yeah. It was just so cool compared to everything else and it looked futuristic.

Best surprise of that whole game.

The Pac-Man Battle Royale machine was a refreshingly unique arcade setup compared to most of the standard shooting games I've seen recently. Especially for such a simple game like Pac-Man.

I've never known any Monopoly figures to be perfect. I guess it comes with the low cost, mass production of the pieces.

I really don't want this to take root at all on a publisher level. The last thing I want is to have to shell out $5 a month to a handful of individual publishers who will suddenly decide that it's better to just offer everything via subscription service.

When will you professional victims realize that the entire world can't be bubble wrapped to protect you from every instance that MIGHT offend you? If you see something mildly offensive, just note your disapproval privately and move the fuck on.

Clearly this was not intended to be connected in any way to that god awful…

Oh man, I'm getting all kinds of 80's Saturday morning feels right now. I'm going to have to watch this.

Oh look, it's a Power Rangers / Voltron villain.

If reports of the Shenmue trademark being allowed to expire are true, we can kiss that series goodbye.

I remember having huge posters of the Turbo and Genesis and just scanning over all the game screens trying to decide which one to beg my parents for for Christmas that year. I ended up going with the Altered Beast Genesis but the Turbo has a place in my heart as well.

I used to love game manuals when I was a kid. It was an immediate way for me to dive into the game on the car ride home.

I've always thought of shooters as the type you describe and "1st or 3rd person shooters" describing games like Gears and Halo. Without that additional distinction, I default to the space ship pew pews.

I believe the official explanation of the liquid on the SNES version was that it was "sweat".

This or Wave Race for sure.

Which is the line of thinking that has basically fucked the US economy since the crash in 07-08. The stock market is being overrun with these bubble / short sell assholes that are only setting up deals with the hope that they last long enough to make them money before they explode in someone else's face. Instead of…

I'm probably alone in this (and the original is by no means awful), but I prefer the 80's NASA logo to the classic one. It just seems more.....futuristic.

I don't expect it to be perfect like the commercial but I do expect it to at least be in the basic configuration of what I ordered. A lot of times when I order a Big Mac, it looks like they just took the basic ingredients and toss them into the box hoping everything would settle in transit.

And, even in the US, the original Ultra Magnus toy was basically just the white Optimus that sits inside of the trailer shell.
