I really do have to question this: Is that actually you? :lol:

On another note, I know there's been complaints about how often I change avatars. If that counts. :P

Boring Supreez used to have an avatar (CD-i Zelda) that I couldn't stand but he has since changed it. The current one is fine.

Pulsar_t used to have this annoying GIF avatar where some guy is turning a dial and then it switches to another guy doing the same thing. WTF?

As a general rule, I do not care for animated GIFs but there are some that are not too bad (e.g, elmagicochrisg for one). I think TheyCallMeTheSwede has one that cycles through a bunch of characters including a slime. I find it distracting & annoying. elmagicochrisg is more subtle.

Haha, I liked that one. Always wondered what it was from.

But yeah, generally like non animated ones. Don't need the left column screaming LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME.

It seems to be the least well-known of the 8 bit and 16 bit Contra titles. I find that strange though, as I believe it's the best one, definitely in my top 5 favorite Gen games. I've been asked what it was by a few users.

Hmmm, I don't know if any annoy me. I don't care for elmagicochrisg's, but it probably suits him pretty well.

I used to be annoyed by mod-man extremes exploding head, but either he quit posting or he changed it.

I liked s1mples one before the one he's using now.

I love Flake's. Seriously.

Not a huge fan of ninjainspandex's PDS cover, maybe take an in game shot or something? The generic front cover just seems a bit boring and doesn't do the game any sort of justice.

Yeah, I recognized it too. I agree that it's the best of the old school Contra games. Forget Contra III
