Link: Pimp extrodinaire
In my very usual and very useless ramblings through the great intranetz I came across this slightly bitter (but mostly just hardened by the ages) soul who goes by the name Syd Lexia. Syd Lexia writes about the great era of American culture known as the late '80s to early '90s. A magnificent time that myself and my fellow staffers remember with a high amount of nostalgia, sprinkled with random, nonsensical fears of things like giant, man-eating bunnies and angry nursery school teachers.
>> After reading through his article on Joe And Mac (one of the greatest side-scrolling SNES games ever created) I decided to look through his other articles. It didn't take long to come across something pertaining to the great Legend of Zelda franchise.
>> With A Link To The Past: The Ultimate Guide To Women, Dating, And Love, Syd Lexia uncovers the truth behind A Link To The Past, and why so many gamers of the late-80s-early-90s period find themselves adoring this game with such a strong passion: "It is my belief that Miyamoto felt so guilty about creating a generation of antisocial video game nerds that he hid subliminal messages in Zelda to help his loyal fans score some pussy, thus ensuring the eventual creation of a new generation of antisocial game nerds, a generation who would be taught to treat his games with the same reverence that some people bestow upon the Bible." Looking at what a vice-like grip the Zelda games have held onto the balls of the Nintendo systems I'd have to agree that Syd Lexia is right on the money.
>> And apparantly, any luck any of the gamer-breed has had with the ladies is all due to this one game. No wonder they wanted to remake it with Ocarina of Time...
TECKOUT
