You mean the old Lego advert. It's from the 80's.

Blue_Moon 01-06-2010 07:40 PM

In medieval tournaments a kipper was a person employed by a knight, usually a vassal of the knight such as a slave, serf, or peasant.

Obviously, he turned into a slave. Which is racist against blacks.

it also falsely depicts elephants as being afraid of mice, and since elephants are from africa, it perpetuates many other black and african stereotypes.

Bah, mythbusters proved elephants are afraid of mice! Well, at least they avoid them when they see them as if they're afraid of them.


I'm just wondering why the elephant is yellow... but I haven't found a way to tie that to racism yet.

Dan Small 01-06-2010 10:57 PM

Damn! I was just gonna mention that! lol. But yeah, maybe not so much "afraid" as they are just weary of mice, lol.

So it's been sub freezing and 6 inches deep in snow since saturday now. There are foot long icicles hanging off my window. It's awesome. It stopped me going to work all week and given me an opportunity to go and be a 12 year old again and play outside.

goldeneye, starfox, mario64, turok

I miss n64

Conkers bad fur day was a riot

Zed_Leppelin 01-07-2010 08:50 PM

n64 had such a good lot of great games. When an N64 game came out it was GOOD. Unlike today where good games come out and they're good till ya beat it then its garbage.

JoshIsNumber3 01-07-2010 10:00 PM

uh the 64 was garbage and the majority of it's software titles were bland bland bland.

[QUOTE=JoshIsNumber3;17741171]uh the 64 was garbage and the majority of it's software titles were bland bland bland.[/QUOTE]

mario kart, goldeneye, and he ability to have 4 players out of the box without having to buy more hardware was awesome.

edit: time out

goldeneye007, super smash bros, zelda, star wars, mario kart, star fox64. 4 people at once could play.

this was nintendos step away from the individual gamers market and into the party market. other than zelda and starwars, all those games were ****ing awesome bc u could play with friends. seeing as those were the ONLY games worth owning, and playing a lone was kinda dull, the N64 kinda sucked balls compared to playstation and even sega saturn (remember that ****)

but i STILL play N64 with friends. and my mario kart n goldeneye cartitrdges are still rockin. so there.

goldeneye 007 was a pretty great game back when multiple polygons were the height of videogame graphics.

lmao @ the dudes face



all i remember from goldeneye was the music, it was sooooooooo cheesy yet awesom

lmao from 1:30 on, soooooo epic

mnemonic II 01-08-2010 02:04 AM

this makes me want to play that game again

if i went and found my old n64 and played the game though it would be way less awesome than i remember and i'll just be disappointed, so i'm not gonna play it.

haha goldeneye's character faces were hilarious

TriggerNYC 01-08-2010 03:40 AM

you guys gotta remember that was 10 years ago. and 10 yrs ago that **** was AWESOME! you cant barely compare computers and cell phones from 2 years ago nevermind ten year ago.

****ing fifteen years ago i used to stay up late at night with my dial-up compuserve connection and wait 4 minutes for ONE picture to load with a pair of tits which might not have been that great. NOW i can get a 1.5hr feature film on my hard drive within seconds. the N64 was dope.

mnemonic II 01-08-2010 03:48 AM

about 13 years ago actually.

in 13 more years you'll be able to zap hours of porn right into your brain, and watch it wherever and whenever you want.

Kuffuffled 01-08-2010 04:30 AM

I never got to live dial up.. At school I guess but the lolmacs were garbage anyway. Didn't have a computer in the house until 98 pretty sure cable just came out

Nothing against Goldeneye that game was huge. Tournaments at the local game store, Perfect Dark too. Must of been a leet screen cheater to join that shiz

I almost want to turn these goldeneye songs into urban rab

Aes820 01-08-2010 04:56 AM

I remember playing four person split-screen goldeneye over at a mates place.
The viewing area was so small. You could barely see anything.

But it's great to be all nostalgic about this. The last thing you want to do is go back and give it another play. Then you realise how crap by today's standards it is.

The Transporter 01-08-2010 12:46 PM

i should have learned not to buy an gamecube from the n64. luckily i learned from both of those to not buy a wii.

Zed_Leppelin 01-08-2010 03:35 PM

oh man the wii is so bad, I'm sorry but video games is for me to be lazy, not jump around like a jackass pretending to shoot some hoops in my livingroom.

TriggerNYC 01-08-2010 03:56 PM

the wii is not a gaming console the way xbox or ps3 are. the WII is awesome for people with friends. whos friends come over to play games and have fun. for people who sit in their room for hours and dont want to be bothered with real people the wii is not for you.

you can play wii while fornicating. that makes it worth it. lol.

Blue_Moon 01-08-2010 05:21 PM

wii's in a league of its own there alright, they're a good bita fun, wudnt bother with the more serious games for em, but u can get the old controllers and games and all that jazz

The_Mop 01-08-2010 06:42 PM

What I find particularly annoying about the wii is the lack of non-casual games. I guess that was always inevitable with the controls being particularly hard to map, but it's still throwing away brilliant potential - Any of you guys played Metroid Prime 3 on Wii? It's bloody awesome, fantastic gameplay, same goes for zelda. It's a massive shame things like that have been bailed out on.

I used to be a proper nintendo guy as well, and yeah, N64 ruled \m/

Blue_Moon 01-08-2010 08:04 PM

never had a n64 went from snes to a ps1!

Left Face Down 01-08-2010 09:04 PM

My gaming history

NES -> Genesis -> DOOM (PC) -> 32x -> PS1 -> Dreamcast -> PS2 -> Xbox 360 -> PS3


Though, for the record, I have been a PC gamer since Doom and enjoyed almost every other major console through friends who own them.

Blue_Moon 01-08-2010 09:17 PM

NES -> I'll be in college soon -> Genesis -> I'll be in college soon -> DOOM (PC) -> I'll be in college soon -> 32x -> I'll be in college soon -> PS1 -> College -> Dreamcast -> College -> PS2 -> College -> Xbox 360 -> Lfd's lod live journal -> PS3 -> Present time

gotta admit, the n64 controller was way uncomfortable to use for more than like 20 minutes at a time unless you have tiny asian hands


also; the wii is cool for a bit, but the novelty wears off pretty quick imo.

you do know that xbox's and playstations have multiplayer right? i guess it depends if you'd rather play a game or wave sticks at a screen pretending to golf, imo even in a group the wii gets boring rather quick

Still thought it was more comfortable than Xbox controllers.

mnemonic II 01-08-2010 10:04 PM

xbox controllers were pretty big, but i think they fit my hands pretty well. same with the xbox 360 controllers, except the 360 controllers aren't quite so bulky.

playstation controllers i think are a bit small too.

i also dont like how thin ibanez necks are so
