Do you feel that the games you play provide you with *the proper amount of amusement?*
@ifixcoinops I assure you, the dollar I spent to get that copy of Pac-Man for the Atari 2600 was far too much to pay.
@Felthry @ifixcoinops Damn. That's a low blow...
@not_on_pizza @ifixcoinops Do you disagree, though?
@Felthry @ifixcoinops I'm not sure. With certain Atari 2600 games, though...
@not_on_pizza @ifixcoinops the 2600 pac-man port is widely regarded as one of the worst video games ever made, and one of the key reasons for the video game crash of 1983
@Felthry @ifixcoinops I thought that was ET...
@not_on_pizza @ifixcoinops E.T. is _also_ considered one of the worst video games ever made, and one of the key reasons for the video game crash of 1983
@not_on_pizza @ifixcoinops Basically, E.T. and Pac-Man were the one-two punch of terrible rushed video games programmed from scratch in like six weeks by a single person
@Felthry @ifixcoinops And then a few years later, Square made the same mistake with Nasir Gebelli...
@not_on_pizza @ifixcoinops okay I've never heard of that one, to the google
@Felthry @ifixcoinops Programmer of Final Fantasy for the NES. Buggy as fuck game.
@not_on_pizza @ifixcoinops buggy, sure, but also considered a classic
whereas E.T. and 2600 pac-man are just universally reviled
@not_on_pizza @ifixcoinops they also had like a full team working on the game--when I say E.T. was made by one person I do mean one person. or maybe it was two, I don't remember--they didn't have a proper team, anyway
@Felthry Do you suspect you may be receiving an IMPROPER amount of amusement?
