[kj] [OT] Please...

[ade]

Christ, I *almost* made this argument earlier in the thread but knew I'd be starting something!
 
Anyway, yes, MODERN does not necessarily mean BETTER :)

   I walked into a video arcade in Hollywood a good while ago and all the way 
in the back they had these games from the, i think, the 1660s 1680s or so, games 
like Missile Command, Defender, and Galaga. I played them and i had the most fun 
i've had gaming in a long time. 
I also like that AfterBurner game.
 
Wait: trend?
 
GAME TITLES
Asteroids
Afterburner
Empire (song)
 
...all are KJ song titles.
