The type of people in that FaceBook group strike me as the type of folks who are still amused by the Power Glove.

Maybe they're just new to retro gaming. Although, I've been apart of the community for a little over 6 months and know better.

There sure seems to be an awful lot of Game Genie pictures there.

I have nothing against the guy, it's just that the page is so lackluster and devoid of interesting material. Screenshots of VGPC don't make for engaging FaceBook posts.

I don't like FaceBonk much, either. Most of the time I only look at the status updates for the bands I follow.

It seems more like they're into it to make money, not necessarily for actually playing the games.

You're preaching to the choir here, Ziggy. I don't even have a facebook account, and I feel happier without it.

I just wanted to let BurningDoom know that it's all fun and games. No hating here.

And there can't be both? I definetly play all my games, doesn't mean I don't get curious. Same applies to my comics. I own a Paperback Edition Price Guide from VGPC.com and a few different editions of The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide. It's part of the collecting hobby.

Nothing wrong with that, allows you to know the value of a game so you don't get ripped off by a price gouger.
