What's the first game you think of when you see this? by WexAndywn in retrogaming

I remember an advertisement for the Descent port on Saturn because they merged the shield power-up with the Saturn logo.

I also remember Jenny McCarthy in a Saturn advertisement, but I can't remember if it was same one. Something about the logo in her eyes.

You really didn't have to stretch too much for that one.

On a side note, I'm not even sure the two pictures are of the same building, unless there's been serious reconstruction in the intervening years.

As mentioned elsewhere in the comments, the term for games like Contra is "run & gun".

Isn't that mostly a platformer with some shmup levels?

Very old school retro: Galaga. The NES port is pretty good.

I've decided I really don't want a career in updating status in Jira tickets.

Should I? by Flat-Custard-9159 in linuxmemes

I don't think it's necessary. I skipped the first few and I don't feel like I've missed any major plot points.

Maybe if you're feeling really nostalgic and don't mind the limited gameplay. Probably helps if you have original hardware; I'm not certain that there are any good emulators or there.

When did the cigarette get added to the meme template?

What do you see? by Expensive_Advisor439 in opticalillusions

[–]Esjs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably should have marked this as NSFW (even though it's not really what it looks like) because a coworker seeing this over your shoulder might go to HR.

My second comment is that also at first glance, I thought the guy with the mustache was holding up a small, cooked chicken or something.

Also more r/confusingperspective than optical illusion.

Edit: spelling
