my favorite episode was the one where carlton was doing cocaine and uncle phill and will had to come up with a rap to get him out of the...

uh...
i mean, the mega man one.

uhhh...hello!?

SUPER SONIC RACING!??!

TRY TO KEEP YOUR FEET RIGHT OFF THE GROOUUUUUNNNNDDD


otherwise, great article.

to be fair, it seems like he followed the plots to some of those games pretty closely. i think we're just upset that it was TOO close.

and the fact that they're essentially boyhood masterbations on film.

god i'm listening to the protomen right now! fantastic idea!

the "play a real guitar" argument is a dead horse's beaten in bones by now, but sheesh, when the controllers cost the SAME as a real instrument...pushing it.


that said, the bass controller looks neat.

damnit. now i HAVE to replay the old 6.

WTF!??! you never said that there would be spoilers!!!

the original super mario bros. didn't have a tutorial. just you. standing to the left of the screen. then, SHIT what's that coming right toward me? out of the four buttons on the pad, you figured out which one was the actionbutton.

THAT was a tutorial. that's what it took to teach people how to play one of the most important and widely known games ever.


super mario galaxy has TONS OF word balloons and other bullshit to tell you, "hey push the A button to jump" then we're showed, through un-skippable cut scene that there is something coming up that involves us to jump. then we are rewarded for just doing what the game simply told us to do.


although i do disagree with auto saving part.

oh yeah! the baby gets my rofflecake vote too.

i think my favorite sound fx button is the "CSI Who" button. so many epic possibilities. (post-garbage throwing out? post-bathroom break? post-coital?)

damn, i was pulling for one of my other drawings. but it's so cool that they're here! yes!

great article, gents.

i totally have that MJ game!

and it had thriller? i remember seeing a zombie level and being mad that it WASN'T playing thriller. i also didn't make it very far because the game was a plate of meh-cakes.
