Back then, Video Game heroines never really required to look sexy, and had proper anatomy.

So its about ass now huh? EVEN THE ASS HAS 'EXCEEDED'!

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.

Back in my day, my friends and I knew this guy called JC. Pretty cool guy, had a lot of neat stuff to say. We weren't really friends with him, we just hung out with him, but he didn't mind. We all thought he was really mysterious and cool, so we would always follow him around the place and listen to him talk. Then one day he started acting stranger than usual. We got really worried about him, but he just invited us over for dinner a little later and told us it was all cool, he was going somewhere better. Last I heard of him he got arrested. Don't know what for, but I didn't see him again. I heard some people telling us they saw him around the place, but I reckon they were just smoking something weird. He never gave us anything back when we tried sending messages to him. I still hear people talking about him and all the crazy stuff he used to tell us. Poor guy. He was awesome.

Lara Croft says otherwise.

That was because the games came during the PSX's tyrannical reign. You know, during those times where characters REQUIRED to look cool/sexy. I know they still do today but eh.

And back then were like 50/50 chance of your download crashing due to internet faliure. Now, the internet downloads crash when the server goes down.

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.
