The 80s and 90s were a pretty fun time to be growing up, and we have all kinds of games we cherish from our childhoods, but there are plenty of other things, too. This thread is for fondly remembering the things from our childhood that weren't our games. To reminisce about games, use the "Gaming in the 90s" thread in General Gaming Chat. If you want to mention a movie or tv show or something that was INSPIRED by a game in this thread, that's fine.

Homemade chili with fritos scoops and sour cream and onion dip with a coke. Christmas Eve tradition.

I think a Lego video game kinda defeats the point of Legos.

Anybody pick up Season 3 of Sam and Max on Steam today? It is on sale for 9.99, as anyone who has checked Steam should know.

You could say Lego anything, really, but then people will tell you that you hate fun.

What bugs me the most about the series is how the movie was almost something good but then they fucked it all to hell like stupid sons of bitches.

HD-DVD player for the 360 says hi.

You beat me to it.

Wuss. You don't give it back. You KEEP THAT SHIT.

You lost my thread!?

Its just too complex for our soft little brains. That includes you, D-K.

Steam works on Macs now, Ethan.

You play Meat Boy. I approve.

ITT Brida fishes for Steam gifts.

I used to have a neighbor with a limo everyone was jealous of. Turned out he was a drug runner.

I dunno where he filmed that but where I'm from if a man dressed like that walked through a crowded schoolyard someone would call the police on him IMMEDIATELY.

Hornets are the flying vehicles, right? I didn't know you could get one of those.

You know, I actually hate this phrase. But you see it SO FUCKING MUCH in the game that you really have no choice but to memorize every single word and have it repeat in your head over and over while you play.

Level 2 is a donut shop and the boss is a giant donut. Level 3 is a bar and the boss is an Elvis impersonator. The last boss is some kind of...fucking....cube of jelly or somethi---WHAT THE FUCK DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH WAYNE'S WORLD?!

Why does Toy Story need Legos? THEY'RE ALREADY TOYS.

Ok maybe Dante's Inferno is cheating a bit since the work is in the public domain, but it was in the spirit of the thread so let's give him a little slack. And for my next example...: I find the opening scene about the "worst games countdown" to be enraging in its obliviousness to its own irony...

Scorpion? Isn't that the tank?
