Pirates, A Scanner Darkly, Superman Returns, Cars. Good movies. See them.
Thom Yorke's 'The Eraser' is also on constant rotation.
So right NOW I am fantasizing about my arcade room. When I'm rich, one of the first things I'm going to do is establish my arcade room. Fuck frilly foofoo girlie things, I'm going to have an arcade room, indeed-ey!
Today I played Elvis pinball for the first time, and although my flow was not so good today, hopefully I can play that particular one again sometime. He was dancing in the machine and everything. Good times.
I also DJ'ed again yesterday, with my software program though. Oh how I miss real actual decks and those pieces of things called VINYL. But I still have it, yes I do, and I can mix more than just a milkshake. Yay.
And this will be one of my first purchases for the arcade room.
Then of course, you will be able to make me richer when you play against me for $$$$$ when I get the upright AND tabletop versions of GALAGA.
What's your favorite video game and why?

Oh dear. Asking me about my favorite video game means I'd have to make a choice.
For silent narrative? Karateka.
-Despited limited graphical capabitlies, unintuitive gameplay, and a very primative sound chip Karateka manages to convey a simple story of a warlord kidnapping a princess and a man setting out to free her. Simple story but the somber tones that wash over the small speakers when the warlord, vulture on his shoulder, orders the woman into her cell and the slow steps she takes is stil one of my favorite video game moments ever.
For twitch shooting? Thunder Force V
-On the highest difficulty level sometimes my hands begin to cramp and muscle ticks show from the frantic and frenetic pace of this game, such a great time.
For baseball geek stat emersion? Out of the Park Baseball.
- This game lets me dive head first into a pool of numbers and projections along with a great financial model which gives my love of baseball a place to play even in winter.
Arcade? The King of Fighters 1998
A dream match up (with characters thought dead or gone from the SNK universe) this game's odd lack of balance ended up creating an even playing ground and my love of 2D fighting games shines through. Sometimes, when I am bored, I start thinking of how to execute super moves.
I love old pinball games (the ones from before the scores became hundreds of thousands on average) and Tron's Deadly Discs is such a fun game.
I sometimes think DJing would be fun but I am purely a spectator... er listener, when it comes to music. I like the sidelines.
Ugh... too many I statements.
