In a day when gamers laud the new and dismiss the old I think us gamers should look back and give thanks for all of those games that many gamers like to crap on today. They may not remember them, they may have grown to hate them in their little fickle hearts, but without those great games of the past games wouldn't be where they are today (though the state of gaming right now isn't very good). I always make it a point to remember those game I grew up with and which frankly haven't been bettered by anything modern.
Also remember to give thanks for all the important stuff, and don't take any crap from the airlines.
