Rage Pillows
Description: Rage, rage against the dying of the light! from the poem entitled "Do not go gentle into that good night" by Dylan Thomas, 1914 - 1953, written in connection with his father's death. The line is a strong invocation for us to live boldly and to fight. It implores us to not just "go gentle into that good night," but to rage against it. Even at the end of life, when "grave men" are near death, the poem instructs us to burn with life. The poem's meaning is life affirming.
Description: Streets of Rage is a beat 'em up video game developed and published for the 16-bit Genesis console in 1991. The trilogy which includes parts one, two, and three, were among the most popular titles of the '90s. Players control one of three former police officers turned vigilantes who battle a crime syndicate. The original release establishes many conventions of the Streets of Rage series, such as two-player cooperative play and an acclaimed techno soundtrack. Streets of Rage maintains a following to this day, with many retro gamers either playing the real deal on vintage consoles (both 8 and 16-bit versions) or playing via unauthorized online ports.
