I still have my maracas and I still wish I could type better than G did, but I'll be damned if I can't say that the DC was something special. From failing to get Chu Chu Rocket working online, to getting my char up to 100 in PSO with friends over that blazing 56k modem, the DC screamed fun at every opportunity. Sure, the controller kinda sucked for the Capcom fighters, but they were such perfect ports that it hardly mattered.
As Jet Grind Radio was the last game I ever received as a gift from my parents and Seaman almost busted a cheating friend to his girlfriend while she was in the room, I can only say that the Dreamcast gave me grander memories than any console since. Segata Sanshiro died for this console and I almost like to think that I would do the same.
Anyhoo, the 360's version of 1 VS 100 has already usurped the traditional tV gameshow in my mind. Extended Play is good enough for a quiz game, but the live segments are top shelf, complete with a live announcer, real prizes and the chance that any of the players can actually win a prize! It truly is the next big thing in gaming, although most haven't even tried it.
Also, many thanks to the TalkRadar crew for giving me a Rifftrax DVD.
Also, thanks for teasing that you were going go into greater detail about my MST3K fan club submission and then dropping it altogether. Made me feel super special. ;)
The question still remains,"Is Bobby Brown's song from Ghostbusters 2 in it?" I associate 'On Our Own' with Ghostbusters just as much as the original theme and would love to hear it in the confines of the game.
For God's sake, how is the whole US SMB2 ISN'T THE REAL SMB2 story not on the list? I hate hearing that tidbit so fucking much. It's common knowledge, not insider info, these days.
