I can’t remember his whole spiel, because my brain was filled with the enraged screams of my primal warrior ancestors and I was battling to keep a pleasant expression on my face.
We’d still be playing all the cool games in arcades I guess! I had a PC growing up and was impressed by the smooth scrolling and animation on the NES.
I was born in 197-something, so I remember 1984 the year games were pretty well in clearance bins, and stores were chucking them faster than last year’s holiday items. By 1985 you didn’t hardly see game at all in stores. People were flocking to arcades and PC’s, so my guess would be the same as it was in 1985. Atari…
We wouldn’t have games (at least AAA quality games) or high end pcs. The Japanese market wasn’t nearly large enough to make the money back from R&D costs and the European market was splintered across 2 dozen pc platforms.
Actually there is a predominant thinking in the Republic today that Vader himself had reason to let the Death Star be destroyed. It allowed him to firm up the legitimacy of his position, drew attention away from his over-reliance on his archaic faith system beliefs, and created a gap in the empire’s power base which…
“Could be an interesting alternate history story somewhere there.”
well, that kind of what happened in europe, especially western Europe and Russia. nintendo kind of dropped the ball or was simply not allowed there, and pc really entrenched hard(plus piracy was super easy)
Wow, I do take for granted the late 80s to 90s rise of Japanese arcade games in the West. On “Through the Decades” some kind of daily past-news show, I saw a story about how in the 1980s, arcades were in decline. I saw an entire warehouse of used cabinets like Donkey Kong, Pac-Man, and whatnot. The story shifted…
On October 18, 1985 Nintendo of America took a huge gamble, releasing a console into a North American market that…
Cmon Cohaagen, give deez people aiyre!!
Also, your colonists may have opinions about you...
As a londoner born and bred, I have yet to come across marauding muslims trying to whip and beat anyone. Or, for the record, places where non-muslims can’t go or where sharia law exists as some people seem to believe exist.
OK, here we go... As a former soldier in the British Army, who served with the 7th Armoured (you know, the Desert Rats?) in the desert in ‘91, as well as Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Belize, Kosovo, and a number of African nations including Sierra Leone and Somalia (is that enough dick waving? I could go on) I am going…
You don’t think that’s real? You don’t have a fucking clue.
Maybe you should stop arguing emotion and go read the 14th Amendment. All kids born here are US citizens. The. End.
Denying birth certificates to American citizens? Hmm, seems legit.
I love how after that event, Quaid and Milena were both like, “Whoa, that was nuts!” and then brush themselves off and check out the scenery, as if a period of violent decompression and recompression doesn’t warrant immediate medical attention. At the very least, their eyes should be filled with blood, a disturbing,…
That movie scared the living shit out of me as an 8 year old kid.
I hope my space base has a woman with three boobs.
