Re: (sort of) Funny Look at (sort of) Patriotic NES Games
I am very amused that he picked Golgo 13, a game which was based on a japanese manga/television series (animated and non, I believe) featuring an assassin for hire.
Re: (sort of) Funny Look at (sort of) Patriotic NES Games
Turned it off after the first few seconds, so I've got no idea what he has to say about them but... isn't Golgo 13 a Japanese manga franchise about a super elite mercenary sniper who hits 100% of the time and scores with any female he comes into contact with?
Exactly how does that relate to America's 4th of July?
Re: (sort of) Funny Look at (sort of) Patriotic NES Games
The same way that the Halo franchise is patriotic: it's not REALLY patriotism, it's just satisfying an army fetish.

Ahhh Xenophobe, that word sums America up to a T.
