[kj] [OT] Please...

[sade1]

  Most if not all the games the stand out [in the last several years] are about 
  shooting, killing, raping/smacking "bitches" around, basically hurting others via 
  some fantasy concept a person has of themselves. 
    Then there's that whole 'air Guitar' shit. I mean, once every so often for shits n'
  giggles is alright, but damn those people take it so phuc'in seriously. 
   
  "Oy'm a rawk Staahh... knight me!" woo-hoo \m/>

  Anyway, yes, MODERN does not necessarily mean BETTER :)

     I walked into a video arcade in Hollywood a good while ago and all the way 
  in the back they had these games from the, i think, the 1660s 1680s or so, games 
  like Missile Command, Defender, and Galaga. I played them and i had the most fun 
  i've had gaming in a long time. 
  I also like that AfterBurner game.
   
  Wait: trend?
   
  GAME TITLES
  Asteroids
  Afterburner
  Empire (song)
   
  ...all are KJ song titles.
