I doubt this will be the catalyst for social change, but I agree. The idea that society owes nothing to the average person, but ownership class members are entitled to public resources, is exactly what will cause heads to roll, if we get to that point. This is a silly little microcosm of that situation, and I do miss those days.

I'm sympathetic to the "Why does everything have to require a fucking login?"

But come on. So many of those games were just inferior reskins of classics. If you want to play Pac-Man, then play Pac-Man. You don't need to go to Lays.com and play Cheeto Crunchers, where a giant Chester Cheetah floating head chases snack foods through a maze.

I miss Kitten Cannon so much lmao, and Madness Interactive, and addictinggames . com (which iirc died so probably don't visit and yes the website was mispelled).

The Ed Edd and Eddy game where you used machine puzzle pieces to put a jawbraker into a bucket was my game as a kid.

I remember seeing that game with the hammer and pot and not believing it was a flash game and that people paid for it.

Still waiting for the resurgence of Ben 10. I feel like WB games would have made a standalone game a la arkham by now if it wasn't so mismanaged
