Hello everyone it's Jason writing about this matter. Personally I am a fan of the old stuff even though, I am 25 years old but I like the new and old stuff. I am a fan of the 50's 60's 70's music and old games as well. But I also listen to the new stuff that is out today as well. I am also a fan of the old time radio and sports games that Gary Widington puts up on his sight. sometimes I listen to old movies and old classic games and I wish I could go back in time to relive these events as well. and I also wish some times the old days would come back again because this world can be cruel at times and even then. The point is who cares in my opinion what kind of game it is just be appriciative of what the gaming developers have to put in for their time of developing the game. Remember don't take everything for granted. your friend, Jason Milyo known as the Blind Fury.n ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas Ward" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, March 23, 2007 7:40 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Revenge News
