Just saw this new Avon commercial while watching the new House. I immediately thought of the Resident Evil: Apocalypse teaser. Looks like I wasn't the only one to come to this conclusion. So weird.
Back in middle school, my friend and I would bike to the Village Mall and play this game for hours until we progressed further and further in the game. We did this all summer. Sure, the game was just another take of Dragon's Lair at the time (in fact there was a Dragon's Lair directly across from it), but the action and story of Cliff Hanger was so much more intriguing.
How completely addicted to this game were we? One day I started feeling really sick while playing. I had to ask my friend to take over. I then biked home as it started to snow. This made it all the more surreal since I was burning up. When I got home, I threw up outside and later on found out caught the flu really bad.
Years and years later, I found out that game was just a laser-disc game built off of Lupin the Third and the movie Castle of Cagliostro. So crazy.
