I also only use Facebook for people I actually know/have met. That being said, a surprising number of my FB friends are people I knew in middle and high school, but wasn't close friends with. If I do interact with people on there, it's only with a handful of my FB friends, who are family and close f...

Astro Warrior is a decent shmup. I think it came built-in on some models, so it might be on yours. Choplifter and Aleste/Power Strike are great.

Psychic World is also a cool platformer to get.

I traded in my Genesis copy at a store about a year ago. Guess my goal this week is to find a way to play!

Guess that includes me then, as I have a stack of old Madden games th...

The earliest off the top of my head is Dodge 'Em for the Atari 2600. I may or may not have some earlier 2600 stuff too.

I made a startling discovery today that leftover liver and onions goes great with a chilled cucumber soup.

Keep in mind, this is coming from someone who put sugar on cheese sandwiches when I was about ten years old.

Kinda. When I first began collecting, I picked up a Power Base Converter for the Genesis I had had since I was little, and bought a couple Master System games to play. I still don't actually own a Master System, though I may pick one up eventually. I also picked up a copy of Aleste for the Mark III,...
