I also downloaded a Colecovision Emulator and EVERY game ever made for the system (a total of 15 MB) for my PSP.  That got about 10 minutes of play and then I went ahead and deleted it forever.  

Sounds about right. Sorry Hamster.

Yeah, I really wanted to have fun with it.  But nostalgia can only carry it so far.  And in all fairness the emulator itself was either bad or too good depending on your opinion.  To start a game you had to access a separate pop up menu that emulated that bizarre Coleco controller, and then you had to press and hold down the correct button to start the game.  So just starting up a game was a trial in and of itself, which was pretty similar to the real thing if memory serves correct.

Yes, yes Leo I did have access to the Smurfs.  But no it's not fun anymore.

 That kid is the real Milo. 

Somewhere in the UK Peter Molyneux is watching him via Natal...

It occurred to me today that if films are art and games are not, then Street Fighter the Movie would be art and Street Fighter 4 would not be.  Would be a great site, along the lines of hotornot.com where you show a game on one side and the movie of the game on the other side and ask which is art...

I don't want to get into this whole "is games art" debate, but obviously not all films are art.

I mean, seriously! Who in their right mind would even think Michael Bay is a artist!

 If you don't want a debate don't start it. Your stance is idiotic to say the least. Why? See the art debate in the latest podcast. Or the podcast before it.

^ Street Fighter craziness in clip form. WOW! I've NEVER seen this clip before!

 That one is old and famous. The one where Daigo parries all those attacks.

i played some mario galaxy.  following on from playing no more heroes last week, i'm still in my "play the game ahead of the sequel" mode.  i got a good few stars when I first got it on launch but i always have to start from scratch when i've left a game for years.  this one is nice to play casually and try and do at least a couple of stars every day

 Finish it, or else!

He is an artist of blowing shit up.
