The Cat "game" subtitle is "The World Cat Catalog"  Its probably just a cat breeder data cd.  Probably no actual games on that disc.

I'd like to know what number that famicom modem dials; when I win the lottery, I'm gonna buy that number and set it up so you can surf the web in glorious 300 baud.

I still sleep with a catbus, so don't feel weird :mrgreen:  Even if it is for her, admit you will steal it back at times and play with it in your Gargamel costume.

A must for any Blu-ray enthusiast or any idiot who claims HD doesn't matter.

I ignored this, along with Koyaanisqatsi and the others on Laserdisc. After Koyaanisqatsi made it to DVD I checked it out at the library to make sure I felt I made the right decision (as a local Vintage Stock had it in on LD for 10 bucks incase I wanted to go grab it real fast), and still feel I did, as I fell asleep after about 20 mins of it. Im just not into the time lapse worldly scenery stuff. Its def a great way to show off higher res technology Im sure, as people raved about them on LD in their time, but its just not for me as there are other far more visually impressive films out there that keep my attention span going.

I know the LD of Koyaanisqatsi retains the original 1.33:1 aspect ratio too. People often mistaken it for Pan and Scan, but it infact was originally filmed in open 35mm and viewed that way. The newer releases are being soft matted to 1.85:1, which is annoying for some people since there was nothing visually going on with that film that needed to be hidden away they say, so they revert back to the LD copy as the most important release.

I would ignore this on LaserDisc as well (in fact, I did).  It really needs a higher resolution format for both video and audio and Blu-ray delivers.  It definitely isn't for everyone and surely isn't the disc to pop in when you're in the mood for high quality Hollywood moviemaking like Teen Wolf.  But it is visually enthralling.  Some people need a dramatic narrative (re: story or actual purpose) to retain interest.  This is National Geographic on a Disc.

No, these are National Geographic on a disc. :P

Also, most of them have a informing narration that helps keep me awake.  :wink:
