Like I said before, if they really wanted to push a boundary, why not make Kirk and Bones gay. There is enough smoldering bromance to make a romance. Why make the Asian guy gay?

Did you just finish your PhD write up? You're thinking a little too deeply about it all. More than there is there.

Like the bread?

I was vaguely supportive of your sentiments up to this point.

I finally got around to watching The Lone Gunmen and well… it was a good thing no one watched that show or else it would have been talked about a lot more. I can't help but think someone got inspired from it.

El Cheerwine Kreme o el muerte.

That sounds like it would be heavily featured on Buzzfeed the next day with endless comments at the bottom from art college students about how deep and life affirming it was.

I think your example sums them up well. They're a decent reference point on a subject you knew nothing about prior but remember that if you do know something beyond the very obvious then they will offend you with their simplistic and often politicised take on everything.

Late spring/early summer was when I bought that game come to think of it. I wonder if it enhanced my experience.

That was a great soundtrack but I always felt the theme was dark and cold and wet. Thinking back, most of the levels were either at night, in mines, in swamps or when it was raining.

That game would have been better remembered if it wasn't tied to a corporate mascot.

Bustin' makes me feel… OK I guess.

It's amazing that licensing can be an issue for 25+ year old games.

Starfox 64, F-Zero X and Mario 64 are the ones for me, though they have been greatly improved upon with subsequent entries.

Digging so deep into the nostalgia mine will cause a collapse and it'll all be Nintendo's fault.

No, why would it?

I would go so far as to say that the Third Strike OST is the best game OST around, but that's partly because I like D&B.

Most of the SF3 Third Strike soundtrack would qualify. Ken's theme and Twelve's theme stand out.

A very obscure game but there was a futuristic racing game inspired by 'The Fifth Element' called 'New York Race' and the theme for the first track is one of the most chilled songs ever. It's a beautiful electro-jazz mashup with summer-time saxophone tones.

Why do they have to make one of the few heroic Asian men in popular culture gay? Can't they make Kirk and Bones gay? Bones was definitely gay for Kirk and was totally jelly of Spock. He didn't have a g/f either did he?
