Any day you can get 5 Metal Gear games for $9 is a good day.

I most certainly did. But the worst offense to me in my childhood, was how every adult I knew called them "Engine Turtles."
"You want some Engine Turtles for Christmas?" I was like, "Nah, just some shotgun shells so I can shoot myself in the face for the way that everyone says ninja turtles. Thanks."

Still to this day, every once in awhile, I'll hear someone call a controller a paddle. It makes me laugh not really in a mocking way (it IS an old school term), I just can't believe some people still call them that.
