If you're going to have a contest at least take the name of the game out of the web address of the image.
I didn't say it was a HARD contest.
Golden Axe 2! Gimme some stickers!
It's interesting to read that AV Club discussion in light of the Popmatters(?) piece about Gerals Levert and black pop music in general. People like Liz Smith talk about "nice" vs. "not nice" black music, but probably don't know much, if anything, about "nice" black music past like 1970.
I was also reminded of the Liz Smith thing as I read Tom Shales' review of the Penn Jillette-hosted "Identity." No one savages TV quite like Shales ("Will Teller make a guest appearance on a future edition of 'Identity'? Not if he sees the premiere and has any sense or self-esteem"), but it means sitting through quotes like, "Yes, apparently there are still professional break dancers living among us, survivors of yet another trend that ran its course but hung around anyway."
I didn't even notice the name of the gif. This was one of my favorite games. I had all of the tilted fighting games like Streets of Rage. I think I liked them because they were fighting games, but they needed less skill than Street Fighter.
Thanks for the link to my review!
of course, shannon, thanks for the review!
