And I also believe that a Bob Barker-Chuck Norris face-off would be so worth my time and money. Ian, I believe it so.

And I also believe that a Bob Barker-Chuck Norris face-off would be so worth my time and money.

If I managed to get past the goddamn Turbo Tunnel (and I manage a reasonable success rate) and that goddamn snow level, I invariably quit on the snake pit because jesus that's a hard game. It took me ten years to beat the original Metroid, but I don't know if I'll ever beat Battletoads. Sometimes I like to put the game on pause and just listen to the pause-screen beat for <i>minutes</i>. It's also the mark of a great game where a level is literally called "The Wookie Hole." Either George Lucas didn't hear about that, or he's a fan of the 'Toads. Every now and then I get fond of Battletoads and dust off my vintage NES cart of it.

Only in (North) America can people like Rob and Amber have a Career as Reality TV Show Celebrities. That makes me want to punch kittens and poison public-school water supplies. Or at least be paid a salary for all the currently-unpaid shenanigans I do. Next up: covering the soundtrack to the NES spectacular BATTLETOADS. I don't think I'm the only one who can't get the music to the Wookie Hole level out of my head. Why read People magazine when I can read BE-Something?
