    Nice, althouh i’m not sure you can say Jet Set Radio was responsible for cartoons with cell shading like Invader Zim, they’re just 3D animated, and rendered to look 2D like Jet Set. Its more of a production method thing rather than a direct reference…

    Was E.T. so bad? I played it as a kid, and actually beat it. No matter how hard or bad that game got, I would not let it get to me. I had to beat it. Then again when I played Final Fantasy 7 I got to the last guy, and lost interest and turned it off.

    P.S. I don’t think the 2 million copies of E.T. being buried was a rumor. I remember seeing a picture of someone who dug some of it up, but I forget where.

    For y’all old skool Arcade dogs, I suggest the following classics (’80s whut!):

    1. Galaga — that two-ship shooting concept blew cats’ minds

    2. Track & Field — don’t front — everyone wuz on this shit back then… remember using a Coke can to avoid carpal-tunnel….

    3. Smash TV — an updated Robotron — with that two-joystick deal, no less

    4. Gladiator — dunno if cats remember this one, but another carpal-tunnel creator — with that jiggle the joystick to create your shield thang….
