christo930 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Does anyone know who is responsible for this abomination? http://collectorvision.com/shop/colecovision/junkwall/ WHY in god's name would they attack retro-gaming? WHY do these people always want to inject their dysfunction into EVERYTHING? For those who do not know, the art in this game has a sordid history.

Kiwi Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 To be fair, the game does have a M rating on the back of the box. I do dig the artwork, even though I don't care what they mean. I'm too old to get angry. Lime green cart, manual and the box is cool to look at. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swami Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_God,_Help_Me_to_Survive_This_Deadly_Love I don't get it. The only criticism of the painting is the lack of originality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValkerieSilk Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I felt that Daniel Bienvenu's collection really spoke to my inner sordid dysfunction.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christo930 Posted June 13, 2018 Author Share Posted June 13, 2018 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_God,_Help_Me_to_Survive_This_Deadly_Love As repulsive as that picture is (and I have no idea WHY this degeneracy has to go in a damned colecovision game), that's not the bad part I was thinking of. It's that other art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swami Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I didn't make it, but from my point of view, it is supposed to be ironic: belittling the oppression of the past 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoTonah Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Yeah, I don't get it either. I've googled Berlin Wall art and nothing there is offensive to me. I also don't know the historical significance of any of it. But I also know that in real life, I have never seen any art that has offended me. I may not like a lot of it, but offended? No. Mind letting us know which picture bothers you and why? After all, you did bring it up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youki Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 May be he means this "wall" has a sordid history , but not the art itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christo930 Posted June 13, 2018 Author Share Posted June 13, 2018 I don't happen to recall the details, but that weird art style comes from an extremely degenerate style. I'm not sure if it's from one person or if it's its own "style," but it's loaded with some really sick degenerate stuff. There is a strange mix of exchanging highly sexualized body parts with things like noses, for example. You cannot hide! These people will invade whatever it is you enjoy doing. No amount of capitulation short of total surrender will make them happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christo930 Posted June 13, 2018 Author Share Posted June 13, 2018 ^^^This, somewhere, out there... There is a reason for that. Unlike these people, I have zero desire to inject any kind of ideology or activism into retrogaming. Comics, movies, video games, fiction (especially Sci-Fi and Fantasy), TV etc have all been converged. You can't even go to the library without degeneracy being pushed on you, even if you are a 5YO child! Retrogaming, particularly Colecovision, is a tiny, tiny community. I seriously doubt more than 10k people the world over have used an original colecovision in the last 20 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killersquirel Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Sorry, you lost me on this whole discussion. Perhaps if you weren't so vague and actually described what you're offended at people could understand where you're coming from. Well there are three copies left of this game if anyone wants to grab it before it's gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
