These games are lame. they're kicking my ass, but they're so gay.

Yeah. Sounds like sour grapes.

I wonder how many of these kids could beat Zelda without a walkthrough, or navigate the original Super Mario Bros under the same circumstances. I wonder hwo the could handle a game without demo/intro stages that hold your hand.

And yeah. I'm not a silent movie fan (mostly because I don't pay much attention to a TV screen anyways), but I appreciate many oldschool "talkies," radio programs, etc. I'm a HUGE Marx brothers fan, watch Nick-at-Nite and TVLand for my retro fix, etc. I mean, just because a show doesn't have state of the art special effects doesn't mean it doesn't kick ass. Not everything needs to be revamped a la George Lucas to be good. Things don't get bad because they're old unless the only selling point was their state of the art nature (See also Matrix, the...)
