Does this new General Retro Discussion II thread come with 25% more generalness than the next leading general retro discussion thread?

Sparks43 · 19-08-2011, 19:14

I am just after taking a trip around Boards and i dont see any other big threads locked
Except for Lets count to a million which is locked after every 100k posts

Oh and on a Video Game matter why is there no Jap release date for Zelda Skyward Sword I know we are getting it on Nov 18th

I thought the Happy Clappy Jappy Chappys got priority

What happens when son of retro discussion has a son, and that in turn has a daughter?

****s going to get real people.

NEW TREEEEEEEEEEEAAAD!!!!!!!!!!

How's this for Meta-Retro, I was listening to some 80's music, I ran so far away by A Flock of Seagulls, and instead of getting all nostalgic for the 80's I felt pangs of nostalgia for GTA Vice City!

What's going on here!
Anyone else get a similar vibe off of any pop music in games?

I guess its akin to the Blue Danube waltz meaning space stations and moonbases instead of dancing at a ball in Vienna!

Had an odd GTA:vice city experience once while driving where I was stuck behind two people on a old scramble bike and "owner of a lonely heart" came on the radio.Just a really odd sense of deja vu .I didnt get out of the car , club them off the bike and drive off while pulling a wheelie though in case your wondering...
