For me, ________ is basically all sports games that have ever been broadcast. Most of them are just locked away somewhere, with literally no legal way for anyone to see them.

Yo, I might have to check that out. It warms my heart, just knowing people aren't letting it go. Gotta keep that 1990s PC gaming spirit alive, somehow. Arena shooters are to my generation as drive-in movies are to the Boomers.

Not to make unfair comparisons, or anything, but a LOT fewer people caught the clap at LAN parties, compared to the ol' drive-in. I mean, it's not zero, but it's definitely less.

The fact that there were a lot more women at drive-ins compared to LAN parties probably has something to do with it.
