I know this has already been touched upon by Sirs Cantler and Dork (possibly more by the time I'm done posting this), but I am posting for something a bit different. I've not been too active around here lately but today's a special day, as most of you know.
This is a cause for
celebration!
I am proposing to you all is that for today (just today) you lay your dualshock by your side, forget about Castle Crashers for just one moment (I know it's hard), and dust off those gd roms, vmus and remember when you used a 56k modem. Quite simply, just bask in it's glory.
Not today.
Not today.
NOT FOR MONTHS.
Not today.
Not not today.
I've given all my other consoles a hug and assured them that they'll be okay, but today belongs to the Dreamcast.
Perhaps its time for you to pull out that old boot disc and unseal that pristine copy of Ikaruga. That's what I'll be doing.
Also, my girlfriend and I have decided to make this an official celebration, and we're having a VIRP (very important reason party). It may be a long shot, but if you live in Las Vegas or environs, you're already invited, just PM me. For now, it's time for my day-off-customary-afternoon-beer and a few rounds of Marvel vs. Capcom.
Also, booze.
Uh ok, I guess my friends and I are the only ones that are willing to celebrate a console's birthday.
