I'll never forget how lifelike that game looked, and if I saw it today, I'd probly **** all over every aspect of it

    Was it this one? I remember renting it for SNES and it blew me away graphically.

    Haha same. Who didn't/doesn't love Butterbean. I may have picked Ali the first time I played it, I'm not sure, but I guarantee by the 2nd match I had BB loaded up dropping bombs Can't wait for Undisputed btw, that game will be great.

      George Foreman KO Boxing. I had that game. To be honest, I wasn't crazy about it but the catchphrases of your opponents used to crack me up

          If there's one thing I've noticed from watching Halloween shows/movies it's that basically every show or movie that deals with some sort of ghost/monster and a group of people, it ALWAYS has someone who suggests a "Lets split up" plan, and someone is like "have you never seen a scary movie? NEVER SPLIT UP!" and then they split up.

            I'm watching this video about the evolution of boxing games and it's pretty cool:

                  Perfect, now I have to pick some up later tonight. Also, for those interested in remaking some classic Dunkaroos, buy one box of that confetti cake mix, a tub of vanilla greek yogurt, and a tub of cool whip and mix them all together before letting it sit in the fridge for a while. Then grab some animal crackers and get after it!

                  I hate that man, trying to remember the specifics of something that you remember, especially fondly. That is a cool vid though, but if you really get stuck on the game and can't recall, you can always break every boxing game release by system if you're that intent on closing the gap, if you haven't already done that lol.

                  My God do I love nostalgia though. It's like even if we can't remember the exact details of something we can remember how it made us feel.

                      It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

                        I've been watching racing for a long time. That is the craziest thing I've ever seen.

                        It looked so unreal.
                        I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                        I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                          Being in a small city, we don't get celebs, so this is gonna be funny to people in major cities who see celebs all the time, but Jerry Seinfeld was less than a mile from my apartment, eating breakfast at a spot I've been to dozens of times. I was all giddy lol


                          I actually walked out on that place because they took so long to bring menus, and another time the owner's son had taken over the spot at 10, closing time was 10:30, we got there at 10 and they said they were closed. I have a weird association with the place, my friend once cried because she had her heart set on something and couldn't get it, we had to go somewhere else and her tears flowed, we still laugh about it.


                          But yeah, it's funny she and I have memories of this stupid place less than a mile from me, and then I'm all excited to hear Seinfeld went there a couple days ago lol
