My first name is Joe. But I think the user Joe was G-Man Joe.

The best Joe ever. So great, in fact, he's only referred to as "Super" :-)

Blah. Is that all? This is the problem with video games that use near future dates.

It's more that we beat it on that day which is nearly 22 years after we beat it the first time in 1988. Same three friends

Yeah, but a lot of 80s stuff used near dates. Hell, Macross/Robotech had the SDF crash on Earth in 1999 at which time a 10-year global war was raging on. Back to the Future 2 had the hoverboards and hovercars in 2015 too. It's just an 80s thing

That still doesnt explain dick. What is the significance of 8/2/10? Wiki says the arcade game was out in 1987, not 22 years? You guys are all retarded, google doesnt explain everything.

It's from the end of the game. It took place in "the future," which was 2010.

The ending of the remake has Joe writing his memoirs dated November 17, 2039.



Yes, my two buds and I are already planning to beat it that day....if we're still alive. We'll all be in our early 60s then....

The ending of the original game shows the events of the game taking place on April 27, 1989 (the date of the picture) and Joe writing his memoirs dated August 2, 2010. In 1988 when the game came out, these were both in the future. The picture in my avatar is my bud's Blackberry pic of the ending of the game of us beating on August 2, 2010.
