simply, thank you for existing. more

I must say that when it came out, I was already too old to watch it (and indeed I’ve probably seen a total of just about ten scattered minutes), but this cartoon is the ABSOLUTE EVIL, the beginning of cartoons made solely to sell a product (the trading cards). more
Final Fantasy
Saga of the crowned madonna. For me, 7 is the best, followed by 6 and, at a significant distance, 8... the rest is negligible, even though 9 holds its own well... those from the post-PS1 era are in a free fall in quality. more
Vangelis -Chariots of Fire
The album with that little-known theme. more
Ciara
Fallen princess of Crunk'n'B, she has still remained a dignified pop-R&B singer. more
Dragon Ball
"I'm trying to make an objective assessment between the passion I felt as a kid for this stuff and the horror it evokes in me now. The first series was incredibly fun, the second potentially great (great for the whole fridge saga, which quickly went downhill and badly). Obviously, I'm talking about the Manga. The cartoon sucks, period." more

Undoubtedly FF. more

1997, PlayStation: Final Fantasy 7 is released, simply the most beautiful video game ever created, a work of art to be remembered forever. Whenever I hear the (fantastic) music from this game, I feel like crying. more
PokéMon
Referring back to Dragon Ball, at least I watched that when I was little. I've always found Pokemon absolutely terrible, even though I don't understand why: after all, at the beginning it had fewer pretensions and was aimed at a very young audience, unlike Dragon Ball with its macho superhero nonsense. So why, why, WHY do people still talk about it even as adults??!! more

In fourth grade, I lost two of my closest friends because I had started to prefer Digimon, ha, the second heretical moment of my life after renouncing Santa Claus at six years old! more
PokéMon
I am a piece of shit and I've played through all 5 generations, and now I'm waiting for the sixth... It's stronger than me; maybe some of the little monsters are crap (but even in the first ones there were some horrible or unoriginal things, indeed the first generation was practically just amorphous animals, not monsters at all), but it's always so much fun. Plus, it's a game with incredibly complicated mechanics; I enjoy it more now (knowing what I'm doing) than when I was a kid. more
Konami
1-International Superstar Soccer ---> 2-Winning Eleven ---> 3-Pro Evolution Soccer. Since the days of my first Super Nintendo, virtual soccer has always and indissolubly been "made by Konami" for me. more

The Articuno-Zapdos-Moltres trio in the first generation video games was the best, just like the legendary beasts of the second generation. The only flaw was that they could only evolve through trading. I abandoned them starting from the third generation, even for little critters that looked like a mash-up between vegetables and appliances. P.S. It’s about time that poor Ash Ketchum wins a league for once: he gets knocked out five generations in a row and goes home empty-handed every single time. more
Rockstar Games
The GTAs on PlayStation 2 were something indescribable (not to mention Manhunt, Red Dead Revolver, and Bully). In the PS3/Xbox 360 generation, with Max Payne 3, L.A. Noire, and Red Dead Redemption, they outclassed every software house. And GTA 5 is still yet to come out (even though I hated the 4th one). more
Capcom
I add to the list the 4 Devil May Cry games featuring the super stylish Dante, the first 2 Dino Crisis, Mega Man, and finally Darkstalkers, my favorite 2D fighting game. more
Sony Computer Entertainment, Inc.
Who has never shit themselves when the Sony logo appeared, fearing it would freeze and not continue with the Play logo, the sign that the disc had been read correctly and that the game was about to start? :D more
Konami
Is no one here mentioning Castlevania? Then I'll do it. CASTLEVANIA!!! more
Sony Computer Entertainment, Inc.
More than God of War (great but once you finish it, you forget it), what comes to my mind is Medievil, a wonderful symbol of my childhood. I still keep it jealously. more
Nintendo
Childhood. Mario Bros. Childhood. more

The peaks of Metal Gear and the first 2 Silent Hill are extremely high. EXTREMELY high. And here too, with SH, the shit in the pants... more
