OMG!!! XD Okay. That guy at the beginning of the Pole Position commercial... "HEEEEEEEEEYYYYY!" I thought, 'How dare he call nice corporate exec man a jerk! Run him over corporate exec man!' Haha. And, in the Legend of Zelda add?

*cough* *cough* Bullcrap! I was six when I was having to hook our NES to our TV. My parents were like, "I see a yellow one on the TV! This stupid game thing doesn't even have a yellow one!!!" Hahahaha!

@ Grog: Yes. Very annoying. I think drugs may have been involved. *slaps head* Wait! It was the 70's and 80's, of course drugs were involved. Ha.

If life were like a box of chocolates, I'd know what I would get... The one that got dropped on the floor and put back in the box.

God, I just realized how far technology has REALLY come. Hard to believe people considered those graphics "amazing" at the time.

I just now realized I've had a typo in my signature for the past 3 years.

In 30 years people will be laughing just as much as the games we now think are incredible.

There are two kinds of computer users. Those that use Macs and those that wish they did.

I doubt they'll be laughing at our graphics (crysis 2 looks like the graphics are better than the screen can display)
I bet if laughing at our graphics speed, and our non floating cars :/
