I vividly recall grimacing when I first heard that. Lev, if I'm too old for <i>Dig Dug</i>, I doubt Doug would know of it. Plus, in light of this game - which I may have to add to my list of emulated games for my arcade game table - a better slogan would have simply been <i>Dig Doug</i>, right? Though I still prefer the Tarzanesque and appropriately neanderthalic sounding <i>Me Doug, You Dig?</i> The Troll, I agree completely. I vividly recall grimacing when I first heard that.
