Henk will always be number 1 game pixel artist for me.

Bold statement. He's one of the golden oldies, but people like the bitmap brothers are pretty darn awesome too.

Not sure if you guys saw this.  It was actually completed a while ago - "Family Guy: Uncensored" for iphone and mobile.  I thought I'd post it here anyway.  For the most part, the game sucked monkey balls, but the megaman levels were fun to work on :)

Do the A and B buttons trigger flashbacks which makes reference to 80s pop culture? Because I would totally buy a Family Guy game that did nothing but that!

Anyone here who's seen Assault on Precinct 13 (1976 version) & played Xenon 2 Megablast?

I was a bit surprised to hear the theme from the game in the film's soundtrack!

Anyway, turns out it was a remix (the game version). Pointless post but I was SHOCKED. You probably had to be there.

Hey Helm, is the situation in Greece as bad as the papers say it is? I hear it's comming to fire bombs and rioting in the streets.

Yes, I guess that's a pretty accurate description of what's going on...

It's European Union hypocrisy that enabled Greece's leaders to screw it all up so badly in the first place...

Everyone knew years ago when Greece joined the union that it was not ready. As it turns out, letting them join anyway was a bad move for both Greece and the rest of the union.

Gil, all three of your statements could withstand a lot of argumentation. I don't have the mental fortitude for it though, just letting you know that it's both not like that and somewhat like that at the same time.
