GTA Vice City was the MAIN THING that brought the 1980s back to life. If it wasnt for that game, i wouldnt have discovered my beloved blue Members Only jacket.
Oldschool technology it might be, but it still beats the crap out of today tunes! And the CD is good quality either, non of those loudness war issues...
I'm riveted and relaxed at the same time. Crockett's Theme is PROFOUND... I heard of Crockett's Theme and Jan Hammer through playing GTA: Vice City. After playing GTA: Vice City, I developed a taste for 80's music, and I love it! I looove synth! I love musical technology! It's the way my brain thinks with music!

Simmons is a verbose, dim-witted scribbler whose one virtue - that he could be funny - is no more now that he has become self-important and bombastic.
Twitter is the perfect medium for him. I vote ESPN bans him from ever writing anything longer than 140 characters.
@BryanMPolDV He certainly knows what it's like to be a hacky blatherer who has lost all passion and insight. If this is what it means to be a 'diehard fan', then perhaps you are right.
@hardinpants A response just as thought-provoking as anything Simmons has written for about five years. Mind you, you're way ahead of him in being able to express yourself in under 10,000 words.
@jvt2111 How long did that declaration take to craft? Methinks your missives would be of better quality of they erred on the side of brevity. Oh, and bombastic? Seriously? I think highfalutin would have worked much better there.
@offthewagon The declaration took about a minute to craft. In this time Simmons could have squeezed out a couple of columns, at least, but they would be about as good as what I would squeeze out while reading them on the john.
Holy crap! I had no idea that there was another live video of Jan playing! I don't know how you got hold of this but than you SO MUCH for the upload! =D

It's interesting how the 80s were in some ways more futuristic than the future itself :p
