The Warriors - 5/10 - Not as great as i was hoping it would be. Perhaps if i had seen it when i was a little kid I would have gotten more out of it. But watching it for the first time just now, it comes across as silly and amateurish. Also, why does a gang that calls themselves The Warriors spend th...

There's two great shows on the National Geographic Channel that i recently discovered. Locked Up Abroad and Breakout. Great stuff.

Last night i watched The Great Silence, an old spaghetti western from 1968. Overall, it was a good story with a solid ending way ahead of its time. However, most of the rest of the film was definitely dated by today's standards. Overall, I'd give it a grade of B-.

Perhaps there could have been a b...

I had a lynx and gameboy back in the day.

Honestly, there are only a handful of games that are worth playing on the lynx. It was a bit of a disappointment.

I have more fond memories of genesis music, but the SNES definitely sounded clearer and sharper. like others have already mentioned, i thought the soundtracks to the streets of rage and sonic games were fantastic. i can't think of any SNES games that had tunes that were as catchy as those. but to be...

i haven't read all 12 pages of responses, so forgive me if i've repeated something someone else said: I enjoy retro gaming because as i've gotten older i've learned to appreciate what makes a good game, and it isn't state of the art graphics or dolby digital surround sound. it is gameplay and fun. t...
