Anyone know why this has happened yet? This is terrible news unless the reasoning is that they are releasing HD remasters of them on Xbox Live...

The day Donkey Kong appears on a Microsoft console, hell will freeze over.

Yeah I guess you're right; that would be stupid. I just really want HD versions of these games and I prefer Xbox Live. But DK on Xbox would be really weird. Sorry for the blasphemy. But you never know, those games were made by Rare which is now with Microsoft.

I didn't think the order mattered. I never knew which way was the right way. Did you know here in Canada we're supposed to pronounce the letter Z as "zed"? I just found out a few days ago, I've never pronounced it that way before but most people here actually do.

It does. It's Month/Day/Year. Obviously I knew what the guy meant, but someone in editing should have caught that.

A front page article from my local newspaper had the headline "Man Shot To Deat". Not sure if it is just laziness or that the population is simply getting dumber.

And no chris, I'm not that retarded.
