Kids in the 60s were busy calling each other commies and melting green army men. No real children owned Life.
Also, I kinda remember the song from the 80's Life commercial.
You can be a winner at the game of Life!
[parts of the song I don't remember]
"Collect my pay!"
You may go far!
"I wrecked my car!"
Go to college!
"Be a movie star!"

"I'll get revenge!"
Uh, when did getting revenge become one of those life goals like going to college and succeeding in business? Man the 60's must've been weird.

Wow, gayest commercial ever!! I think I would've quit life if I had seen that commercial as a kid.

I'd like a 'where are they now' update.
Also, that seems like the type of commercial that would have subliminal messages in it. "Milton Bradley makes the best games in the world."

I like the one part where the girl's like "I'm gonna get revenge" and then a second later she says "I got my revenge!" and the background singers are like "Get revenge!"
I don't remember there being much revenge in The Game of Life.

Spin the wheel!
"I'm on my way!"
Make your choices!
"Collect my pay!"
You may go far!
"I wrecked my car!"
Go to college!

^ I *think* that is correct.

I could've sworn that at the start of the commercial, the 4th kid was going to say "I'm on marijuana!"
