    I once played the good old nintendo gameboy series back at hi school, starting off at 0, and playing thru level 9...

    It was the first of its kind, and got a hero-ic appraisal from schoolmates. I have not played tetris since that day.

    by the way, this one is ripped. is that george bush playing ?

    I actually played the NES version for a while (Gameboy had been out quite a while before I got one), so I got to see it in color.

    ...after that every other clone paled in comparison.

    I remember when my Japanese teacher would brag about her boyfriend's skills at the arcade. I thought, "Holy shit. A country where chicks brag about their boyfriend's video game skills."

    reminds me of the the DDR (that's Dance Dance Revolution) ranking system. It goes Noob, middling, advanced, dance god, 12 year old Japanese schoolgirl...Gaijin need not apply :)

    But seriously, the GM exam is tough, especially the invisible part at the end. Remember that only 3 people have done it under TGM3 Terror!!
