The 25 Smartest Moments in Gaming
gorgon_123 writes "GameSpy has been running a feature on the 25 Smartest Moments in Gaming. The feature has been in progress all week, and comes exactly one month after another special series, the 25 Dumbest Moments in Gaming." This set of accomplishments are shrewdly divided into 'Smart Move!' ("This is your standard issue smart business decision."), 'Good Prediction' ("Someone had a vision."), and 'Blind Luck!' ("Somebody was in the right place at the right time and did something that just clicked.") Quake's multiplayer innovations, the Playstation, and, of course, Nolan Bushnell and Pong make the Top 5, but what's missing from this list, and why?
first posts are smart moves.
I don't know about the dumbest moment in gaming history, but the dumbest moment in Slashdot book reviews in recent memory has to be today's review. If you haven't read all the comments yet, check them out. They're good for a chuckle.
...how many of you would agree with me that requiring Jennifer Connelly to do that topless scene in The Hot Spot was one of the 25 Smartest Moments in Cinema? At an age when her breasts where their most gravity-defying as well! Pure genius! Anyone here agree with me on this?
Try going to your preferences (on the lefthand side). You can block posts from simoniker, block posts on games.slashdot.org, or both. Go Slashcode!
Simoniker is the Games editor, I don't think he's ever posted a story outside the section. Just turn him off completely if you don't like this stuff.
