The last video game I played with Legend of Zelda (the original, none of this fancy schmancy 3D rendering for me). Of course, it was on an emulator, so it's not nearly as impressive as it sounds at first glance.
My feeling about video games these days can be summed up by Cranky Kong in Donkey Kong Country:

The trouble with you kids is that you're all too soft! The old
games were far harder when I was a 'youngun. We used to play for hours
on a single-screen game and think we were lucky, and we were! We used to
have to survive with a two frame walk! Sometimes our sprites would
change size for no apparent reason! You wouldn't last 2 minutes in a
real game! 32 Meg! That's more than 30 games in my day, and they'd be
great games, too!

Anyway...I'm glad to see I'm not alone in giving up TV. I'm sure I'll start watching more though once the NBA season starts. I'll justify it in saying that at least it's not scripted crap or a farfetched reality show.
