@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

Turbo D

Quote from: MissaFX on 01/06/2008, 12:10 PMMy idea of gaming is a couple of friends over, a couple of drinks, a couple of medical-handrolled-game-enhancing-cigs and a glowing box you all worship.

Why for a limited time only?  Fuckin' corn industry.  That logo is so much better than whatever the current Pepsi logo happens to be.

My Jones Soda ltd. edition D&D soda pop.

ill post a picture later!  Have to figure out where to display them!

PS: Eldritch Blast is green apple flavored soda.   Very wierd.
This "max-level forum psycho" (:lol:) destroyed TWO PC Engine groups in rage: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook "Because Chris 'Shadowland' Runyon!," then the other by Aaron Nanto "Because Le NightWolve!" Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together... Both times he blamed the Aarons in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

What is this world coming to? Real sugar in soda? No high fructose corn syrup?

As you may know, I prefer artificially sweetened soda > corn syrup > refined sugar > raw sugar > dry, shredded coconut.

It's cheaper to manufacture with corn syrup. The blame rests squarely on the Soder Pop industry.

I agree about the logos, though. So wonderful. I wish more companies would go back in their own archives and use commercials, print ads, and billboards from 20, 30, 40 years ago. Advertising usually annoys me, but I find the "old timey" approach less offensive.

I saw some breakfast cereal box designs that had gone "retro"--it was pretty neat.

The last Star Trek film I saw in the theatre was the "Cold War" one (title escapes me at the moment). At the time, I was disappointed, big time. But now, just for a laugh, I think I'd want to see it again. I remember a bunch of very silly scenes, which is amazing, considering I've completely forgotten the contents of other films I've seen around that time.

Nice grab este!!  =D&gt;  EDIT....Digi rather.....hehe  8-[

But you didn't like the Undiscovered Country (end of Cold War metaphor/mystery)? Wasn't the best TOS movie, but it's usually up there in people's favourites. I recommend watching the "trilogy" first (II, III, and IV). I'm actually craving some Star Trek IV action. I can't remember if Chekov ends up finding those nuuuuuclear wessels.  :-k

haha. Yeah, that was a classic scene. The guy who played the punk was one of the writers, production managers, or something or other and he also wrote the song that's playing in the boombox. Just a little ST trivia.  :mrgreen:

my wife is totally ok with my stuff, as long i keep it clean. when she says sumthing, then i counter her with the every 2 month coiffure sessions she helds, which cost about more than my used junk i bring home in the same period of time.

btw. my coiffure is free and is called hair clipper.
