Maybe it's a generational thing, but I was more moved by that than watching college kids bike locking themselves to federal buildings yesterday.
Wow. OMFG Wow!
Now I have another artist to track. I checked around a bit. Ken Ishii isn't a new guy. Very established. Quite a few CDs and mp3 downloads over at amazon. I wish I could get the video (in an open format like mpg). Thank you Andrew!
Now, if only I could find a decent torrent ...
I know I'm responsible for the deaths of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of these so-called Space Invaders. I have no remorse. They attacked us first, and caused untold damage to our free-standing video game infrastructure.
If it weren't for the upstanding youth of my day racing to our battle stations to rid the world of these insidious bytes, we would have been overrun by this invasion. If we had not vanquished their invasion, they'd be sucking off the teat of the American taxpayer and sending their little invader spawn to our schools and taking away our jobs and filling up our emergency rooms spawning their little "earth-anchor" babies.
We 80's kids were successful in our fight against the Space Invaders, and you should be proud and thankful. We made the world safe for future generations of gamers everywhere.
Put down the controller and mean some Hu-Mans.
I'm sure the little Space Invaders had a ticker-tape parade after each time I fought them.
The next video should be of the environmental impact of Dig Dug.
"We made the world safe for future generations of gamers everywhere."
I never expected that I could do so much for humanity while hanging out in cheap bars.
I can't believe this, I nearly cried.
Does this video imply that yellow invader was born out of wedlock? I don't see any dad in the first section. What sort of moral message is this sending?
I honor your service (and I added your comment to the original post).
