VH1's "I Love Toys"

[Mockery]

If you have VH1, it's on TV right now. It's basically a top 100 toys countdown done with all the same comedians from those "I Love The 80s" shows. Good show so far... even if they don't have one of the world's greatest toy authorities on the show (coughcough ME coughcough).

[xbxDaniel]

You think we could petition them to get you into the sequel series?

[Mockery]

Damnit, they just talked about Dominos without even mentioning "Domino Rally"! How can they do that? Who does their research?

[maggiekarp]

I don't like VH1's countdown lists

Jerry Springer wasn't even on the pop culture icons one

[thebiggameover]

and how the fuck is rollerskates a toy?

[Dr. Boogie]

Michael Ian Black looks like he's really not enjoying his B-list celebrity status.

They're talking about GOOD toys, aren't they? It makes sense they wouldn't dare mention the nightmare that is Domino Rally.

[Esuohlim]

I have a love-hate relationship with Domino Rally. It knows why

[James]

Wait nevermind. Mouse Trap was on.

Which COULD mean that Mouse Trap is the resident "take forever to set up only to have it fall for no reason" game, or they just totally whiffed on Domino Rally.

[Mockery]

I rest my case. Domino Rally should've been in there. Also, as I stated in my blog post, they should've mentioned Rubick's Rings damnit.

[Staxeon]

Rubix Rings was like a puzzle renaissance compared to the cube.....until you snapped that fishing line trying to make origami outta the thing.

Still it was really amazing.

[Mockery]

Yep, I still have mine, and it's solved. :genius

They also later released a larger Rubik's rings... it was twice the size and completely badass.

[thebiggameover]

the game boy was only 50. this list sucks...

[James]

Whatever, fanboy. Go suck Nintendo's dick some more.

[HickMan]

I find myself watching this show hoping to laugh at what they're saying like I did for I love the 70's, 80's and 90's..But it aint happenin'. At least it isn't as bad as I Love the 80's 3D.

AAAGHHH! YOU LIKE NINTENDO! MUST BE FANBOY! JAMES SMASH!!!

Gameboy SHOULD be higher on that list. It singlehandedly created the handheld gaming industry (shut up, I know there were some things before it, but those crappy 3 frame LCD games don't count), and is the single most successful game console line of all time. I don't think that it was TheBigGameOver that was being the fanboy here.

[James]

I'm sorry, I can't understand you with all of Miyamoto's cum swirling about in your mouth. Please swallow and try to make your point again.

Actually, don't. Your blind and ignorant praise of all things Nintendo is just sickening, and the sooner you shut up about how the GameBoy is the cure for cancer and creates world peace and how much Sony (Oops I mean $ony right fanboy?) sucks, the better.

[Immortal Goat]

When the fuck did I mention Sony in that post? Oh, wait, that's right, I FUCKING DIDN'T.

My blind and ignorant praise? Maybe I just fucking like my Gameboy. Did you ever think of that, asshole? I never said it was the absolute greatest thing ever invented, but what I DID say was that handheld gaming wouldn't be where it is today without the influence of Nintendo and their GameBoy line.

While I may not like Sony's consoles, it is based not on the fact that Sony makes it, but the fact that most of the games do not appeal to me. So, yeah, if I don't like a lot of the types of games on the console, that makes me a fanboy, but you,, insulting Nintendo fans for no reason and automatically getting defensive, are being the rational, sane person in this conversation?

Grow the fuck up, James. Maybe then you will learn that you don't need to define gaming by brand names, but by the quality of the games themselves. In that respect, it is all fucking opinion, and if someone likes Mario and Zelda games, that's perfectly all right. Asshole.

[Schimid]

Seriously James, that WAS sort of stupid.

totaly. also why the fuck was pong #97? that should be top 20 for sure.

ps- im not a nintendo fanboy, im a capcom fanboy....

[Immortal Goat]

Well, I don't know about Pong being top 20 material. The thing that makes a great toy is the ability to keep playing with it even today. While I still find Pong fun, I would play my gameboy more often than the original Pong.

[James]

If Pong was made by Nintendo, I bet you'd be screaming about how it should be #1 while you jerk off to pics of Mario.

And I love how just because I don't worship Nintendo as the One True God, I'm the one at fault. Nice perspective you guys have on things, but I guess when you spend your whole lives playing games for babies, it's hard to be mature about anything.

You're lucky GameBoy was even on the list. It's about the greatest toys ever, not the pioneers of shitty handheld video game products.

[Immortal Goat]

No, you're the one at fault for automatically attacking someone who voiced their opinion of Nintendo when they didn't even address your precious Sony. You don't have to like Nintendo, but when someone DOES like them, you need to keep your damn mouth shut unless they are specifically addressing you or Sony.

[Mockery]

All of you shut the fuck up about the Nintendo shit and let's get back to talking about the I Love Toys list. I mean really, Lincoln Logs are far more important than your Anti-Nintendo/Pro-Nintendo blatherings...

[Immortal Goat]

I had the absolute best Lincoln Logs set ever. It came with this mat that was made to look like the ground in the old west, and it had nice, friendly grassy areas for the cowboys, and then threatening, deadly desert for the indians.

I miss those, but when it came to building toys, nothing could touch legos. Absolute best toy for kids ever.
