"What sort of person," said Salzella patiently, "sits down and writes a maniacal laugh? And all those exclamation marks, you notice? Five? A sure sign of someone who wears his underpants on his head."
I wonder how this would trickle down to development knowing the risks involved. What would happen to the developer who introduced the bug that caused X discs to be destroyed and the game re-certified. How about the tester who missed the developer's bug?
And I *do* want bluetooth--that way I can get rid of the keypad and display and have a sealed case. When I need to input data, I pair it to my PC at home, and when I make a call I use a headset with voice recognition.

What if you tell him he's miserably unqualified and he hires a lawyer? Is your job in jeopardy?
I shed a tear when I read that. My ET6000 was my first "good" video card and I miss it like I miss my childhood pets.
Poor Bart, always choosing rock.

BitGenerations is giving me the warm fuzzies.
Money well spent, if you ask me.
I think it's on my Atari 5200 copy of Ballblazer--that would have been about 1985(?)
I was going to moderate this thread until I saw your post. There's no option for "needs hug" and you sure deserve it.
The fact that playing it for more than a couple of minutes brought on migraine headaches didn't do much to foster its success.
Cling tenaciously to my buttocks!

At Kingdom of Loathing, we get to trick or treat four times a year.
You're forgetting "strong antenna."

To hell with realism, I play Kingdom of Loathing
Don't forget that the games for the Atari 2600 cost $40 each when released. Your inflation calculator calls that $75 today.
If you look at the dictionary loading screen, it completes at "103%". With that much dictionary, how come there don't seem to be any words I can use?
I hear it's also three apples high.
The original comment was meta-1337. He's so l337 he can start using random strings to express his l337-ness.
You and I made the same decision--look at it this way, but the time GT4 comes out, the amount that the PS2's price has dropped will pay for the game.
