How often do you get chiptunes stuck in your head?
« on: January 08, 2013, 12:24:18 AM »
I dunno if it's because I have a good memory for that sort of thing, but all I have to do is read mention of a game, and often, about 15 minutes later, I'll realise I've been playing the tune in my head for god knows how long.  Today alone so far, it's happened with Street Fighter II' (Ryu's stage) and two stages from PC Kid 2, the first stage and the wonky sounding stage.

Is it just me, or can you literally play the whole thing like and an MP3?

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

Quite often,  now how many times do you repeat/say game dialog or spoken voices from games?

Got the wife and kids in the car all ready for a road trip:
"Arms and Installation Complete,  Good Luck."

Pass thru a Yellow light just before it hits red:
"Time BONER!"

All the f*cking time........

Me too, Josh.  My personal favorite is to tell bitches "Sorry, this happens to be my hobby." right before I show 'em the back of my hand.

(1) I certainly have chiptunes percolating in my gray matter. It'll shift from "all-time-faves" (Iron Tank NES, Double Dragon NES) to whatever games I have been playing recently (Hatris).

(2) Sadly, I still say "Get over here!" a la Scorpion(?) from MK. SAD BUT TRUE.

(3) I also re-enact some classic dialogue from cinema scenes ("Mr. Garcia, how is the work on your ultimate weapon, Indra, coming along?")

(4) When I drive at night I pretend I'm playing Rad Racer.
