I just learned that Xbone is finally getting around to having backward compatibility with
original Xbox games. Fucking sick! The list is pretty limited right now, but I immediately relived my childhood experiences of
Fuzion Frenzy and
Crimson Skies (okay, I wasn't that young when I played
Crimson Skies because, by the time I bought it, the system was probably over a decade old... I've always been behind in video games).
Also saw
Grabbed by the Ghoulies in the store. That was the only game I've ever played to earn the distinction of being "so bad it's good," something usually only reserved for cult B-movies. The controls are idiotic and camera is clunky, but damn, I've got some nostalgia for that stupid fucking game.

I pretty much play video games in the same way that Principal Skinner would try to.

The fifth is definitely a major improvement, though I'm not sure if the multiple protagonists thing ever truly worked.

Maybe I'll try the new one out if it ever comes down in price (probably by the time the sixth game and next generation of consoles comes out).

For me I keep coming back to this gta to live out my sick roadrage fantasy. Just glorious vehicular mayhem/savagery.
Typical sesh begins by driving carefully/polite for a few minutes, then use 1st inevitable fenderbender as justification to SNAP, commit brutal knifing homicide on the other driver and anyone nearby who dares to complains.
End up racing the wrong way on the interstate in someone else’s big SUV, head-on crashing into every car in sight, as punishment just for existing
Really helps shake the creeping bads from a long daily commute irl

Maybe if we didn't have video games like
GTA, we could actually have
more violence on the streets, because people would have no choice but to take their frustrations out on real motorists and pedestrians.
