Augh! Just a kiddie... get out of here!

The X-Box takes a little while to really get warmed up for the ASV...!

How does he not know Riku at the very least? You'd think Solid Snake as well... maybe not.

He doesn't play RPGs, so that explains Riku. He doesn't know Snake because he's never played the MGS games, but he'll know him soon enough, because he's a big SSB fan :)

The same was true for me. These contests were the first I'd ever heard of Solid Snake.

To be honest, it's easy to have been around on the NES days and never heard of Solid Snake. It's not like the NES games are good or anything.

Well, Ryu's slowing it down a bit now. I think Riku needs to get back to those 25 vote cuts if he wants to survive the evening vote.

All the cool x-box kids will be busy smoking at 4:20, clearly he'll have to wait until 6.

Nah. I started gaming on the Atari (actually before that on some Texas Instruments thing), had the NES (fave game was Final Fantasy, also loved Contra, LoZ, SMB, Ninja Gaiden, etc.), SNES, Genesis, PSX, N64, and so on.

I'm not sure if I'd ever heard of Metal Gear when I was a kid, it wasn't a very famous game. I might have heard of the game, but never of Snake.

Some areas have school different.

For me it was K-6, 7-9, 10-12
for some it's like K-5, 6-8, 9-12. Instead of JH they call it Middle School.

Something like that anyway.

Whoops, never mind - not that it matters, but my bro's school actually gets out at 2:15 (he still gets home at 3:00). So yeah, high school seems to get out early.

I had the original Metal Gear (at some point, we trade so much that I don't know what game belonged to who or where I got a good deal of the games I have now), so I knew that Solid Snake was the Metal Gear guy. Of course, I also thought he was the guy in Iron Tank. That game calls its main guy "Iron Snake". Of course, it still says "Snake" for the radio calls in that game. Never realized that it was a blatant rip off of Metal Gear.

In my area elementary school let out at 3, high school let out at 2:30. Don't remember about middle school. High school kids might have more stuff to do before they get home though. My brother's a sophmore, he doesn't get home until 5 or so.

So... we're back to the pattern of on and off every half an hour as a new wave gets home, huh. That's good news for Ryu. He should hold on barely. (Or make a comeback, but the end result is the same)
