Missile Command (arcade) is mean. I went to my local seaside arcade for the first time this season and played the game on the Global VR Classics. I don't think I played it much when I was younger. I didn't realize you had to protect three separate missile stashes. On the 2600, I believe there was the one just in the center. And the missiles came way too fast. Just mean...

It's a Mega Man Monday!

Just spent an hour playing Ms. Pac-Man on the Sega Genesis in two player simultaneous co-op mode with a house guest and it was absolutely awesome! It's a really unique experience having two players on the board at once and it gets crazy frantic when you crank the speed up to Hard and set the Pac-Booster to Always On. =D

Now my oldest daughter in ER.. 2018-2019 sucks. I hope she is ok..

It's...

Today (and everyday really) we should celebrate the career of Jim Backus

It's...

What a horrid foul call.. I mean, I'm glad there are new teams in the Championship game, but Auburn just got ripped off.

They've gone to plaid!

Devo's Smooth Noodle Maps has been remastered and given the deluxe re-issue treatment. Sounds excellent, huge improvement from the original '90 release.

We don't fear Skynet. We fear a future MAME version will emulate the entire planet, and we'll just be a ROM file in the great virtual machine.

On this date in 1971 I watched the last episode of Dark Shadows.

As a kid I ate Mr. T cereal, Nintendo cereal, Pac-Man cereal, GI Joe cereal, Batman cereal and C-3POs.

Listen to the wind blow, watch the sun rise...

What’s your GI Joe codename? Mine would be Slinky, because I’m always slinking around.

GI Joe is the codename for America's daring, highly trained, special mission force. Its purpose: To defend human freedom against COBRA, a ruthless, terrorist organization determined to rule the world.

What's a game you like, but nobody else seems to? (Any game at all)

Oregon lost.

"..time has come for revenge of the nerds.."

I just love game show music. Some of the most lively, peppy tunes you'll ever hear!

Do you think Singer R. Kelly will be allowed to go to Dubai for work?

The Oregon Ducks defeat the UC-Irvine Anteaters.

Some days I feel like I'm the only one who loved Alien: Resurrection.

Home sick with a cold. Time to break out the universal cure: tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich.

Can't you see me standing here, I got my back against the Galaga machine, I have the highest score you've ever seen, can't you see what I mean?
