  3. WASHINGTON, DC—A coalition of video-game characters representing the nation's leading systems appeared before Congress Monday to decry "the pointless, deadly presence" of spinning blades in video-game landscapes. "We are here to demand an end to the shockingly casual placement of dangerous blades in our places of work," said Tomb Raider star Lara Croft, who estimates that she has lost more than 600,000 lives to spinning, falling, swinging, and suddenly appearing blades this year alone. "This kind of thing has been going on since the days of Pitfall Harry, and it has got to stop." Croft, flanked by Metal Gear's Solid Snake, Super Mario 64's Mario, and both soldiers from Contra, called upon Congress to revise OSHA laws to extend protection to the digitally rendered. "From Pitfall to Bad Dudes Versus Dragon Ninja to Gauntlet, the deadly spinning blade has been with us so long, we no longer even question it," Croft said. "It's high time it was done away with once and for all." Exacerbating the situation, Mario said, is the seemingly arbitrary placement of the hazards. "I could see why, if you're in a factory, you might find yourself jumping around on dangerous conveyor belts moving in different directions," he said. "But why would you have conveyor belts in a castle? Or in the middle of a forest? Nintendo and these other companies are always talking about how realistic their graphics are. Well, what's so realistic about killer turtles shooting out of clouds and such?" Added Mario: "It's-a me, Mario!" Above: A concerned Mario discusses the rotating fireball chains found throughout World 1-4 of Super Mario Bros. In addition to the standard spinning blade, the coalition is seeking restrictions on random whirling fireball chains, falling blocks, spike-pit traps, and invisible cross-corridor laser arrays. Legislators listened attentively as the digitized characters told of their near-death encounters. "Just the other day, I was running through the British Museum's Egyptology exhibit when a bunch of six-foot steel scythes suddenly burst out of a sarcophagus," Croft said. "Fortunately, I managed to leap out of the way at the last possible second. But a situation like that could have easily turned tragic." "We're not so different from you," the blue-jacketed guy from Double Dragon said. "We just want to be left alone to do our jobs—saving princesses, finding lost treasures, destroying out-of-control nuclear-equipped robots. But it's nearly impossible to go about your daily life when you're living in constant fear of some giant, evil mushroom suddenly lunging at you from out of nowhere." "I mean, would you put up with a row of whirling knives in the cereal aisle at Safeway?" the Double Dragon guy continued. "Of course not. Why, then, should Duke Nukem have to run through a corridor of them to get the health pack he needs need to survive?" The characters said they intend to boycott their respective video games until Nintendo, Sega, Sony, and other manufacturers take "significant measures" to improve safety. "In addition to mandatory warning lights and buzzers at least eight seconds before the appearance of a blade, spike, or other health hazard, we are calling for mapping features in all 3D-rendered environments, large flashing arrows to highlight such hidden objects as health and life bonuses, and, in the case of Sonic Team games, safety guardrails on all loops." Added Sonic: "And would it kill you to compose better music? I almost didn't finish the jungle part on that last one."
  4. That's weird. That usually only happens on Netscape, try reloadin your browser, & let Yahven know if it keeps up. PS Is anyone actually lookin at the movie? Its fuckin hilarious..."Ah, L'amour."
  5. Here's some funny web shit i came across, these ones are funny. They also link to a number of odd Muffin movies, which are OK but not the high calibre one comes to expect after this stuff. Entertaining. Big Bunny
  6. It's ah-me! Remember kids, do The Mario!
  7. It was an old thread! Fine, fine youre not the first to piss in the Lyceum, just go watch the movie tho, youll like it. ...Ass Viking.
  8. Christ, youve set it off again... Dogs? Youre throwin dogs at me now? "Cluepon meter"? Pardon me? ...and as for the rest of ya enjoyin this show, fear not! Me & Chiefy (mostly Chiefy, he keeps findin these pages) have plenty of these bad boys left to use! *Forum responds*
  9. If Frank Miller's Batman can tear Supes a new one, I'm quite sure Walt Simpson's Thor can do far, far worse. Maybe it is the writing.
  10. PS thanks for the tip tho, ill go download that one soon, i like their old shit. Was just too easy for me to pass up on...
  11. White trash jokes..haha, no wait... Look kids, there goes Chiefy before he had his ride. Oh and for what its worth, it's "You", not "Yuo". Heh..this is kinda turnin into a fight, aint it? ...and I'm spent.
  12. Haha...damn Chiefy thats one of my fine ex's too. Id be careful with those comments tho, youre in a danger zone these days...
  13. Another one that takes a bit to load, but again, well worth it. Pong: The Movie
  14. Be prepeared, folks, this sucker is 1.7 megs & will obviously take a while to load, but well worth it. A short, bitter animation about love
  15. Speakin of card games, here's FF goin too far...
  16. Maximus, thou art Roman, not Anglo Shakespearean. Speak freely but behave, lest Wallace smite thee.
  17. That was low, chiefy...thats why
  18. Irish Cowboy, the Ninja is long gone. I left that role for Jumbie, he's the one who carries around a buddoken when he's in town. :wasabi: Anyway, ive been tryin to talk bout that game for a month or so now, no one noticed....it seems really interestin. In one interview, the designer claimed that no 2 super heroes online will be identical, the variations in costume & powers will give so many options, etc. Supposedly even had lil "beat this villian" missions, i think people could be villians too if they wanted (?) Thanks for the link, ill check that out when im back. Here's to hopin the game delivers, it could be really cool.
  19. I guess i just outgrew em. Jepordy's still ok to learn random shit, but Who wants to be a Millionaire was only fun for an episode or 2, that first round of questions is insulting, then they get impossible, etc. Didnt even bother with that weakest link shit, that brit woman looks like a real bitch.
  20. Hmm...Mulan says theyre open 24 hours a day, just a more expensive Dennys but again, the few times ive been there the service was kinda shitty. Food was good, tho.
  21. ...Ill excuse you 'cause youre on the opposite coast, food might be different. Over here tho, BK fries are crunchy chunks of dung. Eh...we have Johnny Rockets but theyre pricey, Starlight Diner is ok but service sucks. The IHOP by FIU burns everythin, so sadly Dennys is really all we got, especially for the hour of day were all usually out & about.
