I am only a year younger than Bob and probably would've remembered this.
...except my only exposure to pop culture during those dismal days was through smuggled video games and M*A*S*H reruns. My parents were real tight-asses and i had to work to get at what i want. By the time i had been separated from my parents long enough to lose my paranoia and start looking for porn, it was 2000. Hardly a challenge anymore. And by that time, i also had hentai, so my introduction to it at a time when hentai was already close to it's prime makes me a little uninterested in the precursor.
...another parallel i just drew between myself and Yahtzee because he said something similar about why he never understood Transformers despite being old enough to have seen the original series. Also his little reference to Nocturnal Illusion which was my introduction to hentai... my obsession with the long lost golden age of game design...
...fuck. Are all gamers from the 80s like myself and Yahtzee?
