Cool article. I didn't like this game, but I was always impressed by the smooth scrolling when the screen bounced in response to Bluto jumping around. It gave the game a "big-budget" or arcade-quality feel, which frequently d

AT&T has to be among the worst. These jagoffs would send me no fewer then three texts at all hours of the day or night to simply tell me there was nothing with my account. No exaggeration: They would badger me repeatedly to say that my

I said PAYWALLED, which was true, and there was no alternate link. Why UP-vote inaccessible content, and then go apeshit when someone points it out? Hacker News is degraded by this infantile, hypocritical behavior. Why perpetuate, let alone
