Donkey Kong is "lame." Tetris is "boring." Space Invaders "needs a
superbomb or something." And why play Pong when it's more fun to
"jump up and down on one foot"? Hey, save your irate letters—we
didn't say this stuff. The nostalgia-nuking commentary is from EGM's
November 2003 issue, in which we had kids of the PlayStation
generation playtest classic games from the '70s and '80s. Mortified
gaming grown-ups wrote in to call it blasphemy—and call these
outspoken scamps a name that rhymes with "brittle truckers."
