Great choices.
I agree with all of them, except for Twilight Princess (haven't played it) and Fuzion Frenzy 2 (I knew it was going to stink).
Twilight Princess is disappointing in that they delayed it a couple of years so they could port it to the Wii, with tacked-on motion controls. "Boo!" on that bullshit.

The only one I disagree with is New Super Mario Bros. I really enjoyed it at the time, though I 100% completed it easy.
I think my additions to the list would be Super Paper Mario and Forza 2. Super Paper Mario just bored the crap out of me after about 3 levels. Forza 2 was a "great in theory" not so great playing it game. It's far too difficult IMO (even with handicaps) and the car design stuff could have been better.

Some of you probably heard, yesterday was the craziest day ever this year for me.
I went to an ATM machine to get $50, so I'd have extra money to buy Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds. I got the money from an outdoor ATM which the bank shut down (but the ATM was still open).
I bumped into the girl I started a thread over last year and we hugged.
I rode my bike and my pants got caught in the gear, but thankfully I didn't trip over like I did one time (I gotta stop wearing my cargo pants on my bike). I had to stop and fix it.
I got to the bus station (I was running since I was a tad late) and when I searched my wallet for my school ID (since I ride the bus for free when showing it), I noticed my ATM card was missing. I thought about continuing to run, but I decided to head back to my apartment. In all honestly, I can't remember what happened to my ATM card, but since it was one I had to insert the card into, I figured I either left it in the machine and forgot to quit (I kept the receipt) or the card ejected and I forgot to take it out. I called my parents telling them what happened (I was near the machine on my way back and didn't see it anywhere), and they eventually got my card reported as lost to put a freeze on it. My problem is that I'm away at college and have to use an ATM at some other credit union, which I had no idea where my card might have been turned into (if it was), because I wasn't apart of their bank (although I could use their ATM without a charge). So, when I go home next week, I gotta get fill out forms for a new ATM card, and then it will take another week after that. At this time, I have $95 in my wallet.
Later on I went back out to get Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee. Took forever to get someone to wait on me at CC to get the game out of the case (the game had a small tear on the seal, but thankfully it's okay). I spent $53 so I now have $42 left (there was no way I was missing the game on sale this week). That $42 has to last me one week since I have no other methods of getting money or charging stuff, until I get home to my local bank (and I gotta pick up Crisis Core next week, but thankfully I have some credit at GS).
So I'm pretty tired and get back to my apartment just before 6pm (haven't eaten in 6 hours), so I eat before I go back to lab. I broke the wire to my speaker so I had to re-solder it. Figured some of my project problems out while others I did not.
While I was in lab, I saw this nice looking girl who needed help with a class. I got to talking to her (kind of helped her out a little and said I still had my previous workbook to the class), and she also mentioned she struggled in a class I was very strong at, so I gave her my info to contact me. She fits most all the things I wanted in a girl, but we'll see where that goes. Mostly I'll just help her with homework, but she is a girl I'd want (although our ages might be a bit too much apart).
I got home just after 9pm and did more stupid stuff (like giving someone my wrong zip code, but I got it fixed). It sucked I lost my ATM card and that was the first time I ever did such a thing, but it was nice coming across two women (one who I use to like and another).

Fuckin' Christ, my car isn't done yet.
How the fuck am I supposed to get to my first day of work on Monday.
Fuck fuck fuck.You're still dealing with that mess? What's taking them so long to get it done?
If the car isn't done, someone needs to keep you with a car, either the repair place or the insurance company. Not your issue because the repair place is a bunch of cocksmoking fuckers.

Some of you probably heard, yesterday was the craziest day ever this year for me.
I went to an ATM machine to get $50, so I'd have extra money to buy Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds. I got the money from an outdoor ATM which the bank shut down (but the ATM was still open).
I bumped into the girl I started a thread over last year and we hugged.
I rode my bike and my pants got caught in the gear, but thankfully I didn't trip over like I did one time (I gotta stop wearing my cargo pants on my bike). I had to stop and fix it.
I got to the bus station (I was running since I was a tad late) and when I searched my wallet for my school ID (since I ride the bus for free when showing it), I noticed my ATM card was missing. I thought about continuing to run, but I decided to head back to my apartment. In all honestly, I can't remember what happened to my ATM card, but since it was one I had to insert the card into, I figured I either left it in the machine and forgot to quit (I kept the receipt) or the card ejected and I forgot to take it out. I called my parents telling them what happened (I was near the machine on my way back and didn't see it anywhere), and they eventually got my card reported as lost to put a freeze on it. My problem is that I'm away at college and have to use an ATM at some other credit union, which I had no idea where my card might have been turned into (if it was), because I wasn't apart of their bank (although I could use their ATM without a charge). So, when I go home next week, I gotta get fill out forms for a new ATM card, and then it will take another week after that. At this time, I have $95 in my wallet.
Later on I went back out to get Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee. Took forever to get someone to wait on me at CC to get the game out of the case (the game had a small tear on the seal, but thankfully it's okay). I spent $53 so I now have $42 left (there was no way I was missing the game on sale this week). That $42 has to last me one week since I have no other methods of getting money or charging stuff, until I get home to my local bank (and I gotta pick up Crisis Core next week, but thankfully I have some credit at GS).

It was supposed to be done today. Now the guy's telling me the beginning of next week.
This is the last time I let anyone help me get shit like this done.
The insurance company won't cover any more rental days and I doubt the repair place will.

Fucking hell.That's complete crap. If he doesn't have it done on-time, then that's not your issue. Call up the insurance copy and tell them that you wouldn't be in this situation without the accident from their insured driver. They need to make good on the situation, as its their driver's fuckup.
Plus, if the repair place doesn't have it done on the date they're saying, and they know it's an insurance issue, there's no reason why they should be screwing around with times to get it repaired.

They're supposed to cover the rental car for the time of the repair, and it's their issue to deal with the repair place getting the car done in a reasonable timeframe. They're covering the rental against the repair place's estimate of when it'll get done, and if that slides, they need to know about it.
You shouldn't have to pay for the rental, and the insurance company should take care of it.

I love Geico. Once, I was stopped on the highway waiting to go through the toll booth, and some lady smashed into the lady behind me who was pushed into the back of my car. At the time, I was driving a 97 Sebring and it already had some dents and scratches and the end result was a little crack in my bumper. The first lady had geico insurance and I took my car to their office, they looked at the crack and cut me a check for $400 bones, no questions. I cashed that shit and that was that.
Also, when I first got my Miata, I went with one insurance company that was charging me around $200 per month for insurance. I switched to geico and now my paments are around $60.

Other than that, spot on, mang.
You do know I was joking about ignoring you right? And I'll concede that maybe TP was hasty as I didnt play it incredibly long before I gave up. And yes, I did think they'd both be fun. Nintendogs was so incredibly hyped at its release and it was a cool concept. And Perfect Dark remains one of the best games I've ever played so it stands to reason I'd have high hopes for PDZ.

So...might be time to start drinkin'.That's complete crap. The car is a total loss because of their insured driver and they're working off the timeframe of the repair place. They should grow a pair and start acting responsible. Which is impossible, as they surgically remove your balls when you work at GEICO.
Drinking is one way around the issue, yes. If you don't have the rental through the insurance scenario, see if the rental car company will allow you to keep renting it at the insurance rate, which is always cheaper than your normal rate.

Aight, I appreciate the editing power most adobe software gives you, but fuck Adobe Encore. I had to spend an extra hour making my own goddamned DVD menus in photoshop and then do all that linking bullshit What would have been an acceptable 4am-ish bedtime turned into 6am.
Last time i used Encore i liked it. I just used some of the built in menus it comes with. I do remember it crashing a couple of times though. Theres probably a new version out now since it's been a couple of years since i used it.

I don't like ECS boards. Last time i bought one it had problems out of the box. Plus i think Intel has the upper hand in the price to performance area right now. That is a good price though.

You should have called them.
I waited for a few minutes before and they walked me through resetting my PSN password and they were surprisingly helpful.
I did call yesterday after work...got this message "Due to the high volume of calls we cannot take your call at the moment, please try again later"
I would call now but I'm at work, I'm sure that they'd want to troubleshoot the unit before they send me a box...right?

I'd stay away from AMD and go with Intel. I would save up about $700 and buy a CC then to build off of. You can get a Quad Core with a 24 Inch lcd for under $700 from Dell. Or get a refurbed HP quad loded for $600 from Fry's. Just add video card and power supply.
The firewall at work is hit or miss today. Could access earlier, then blocked, and now accessed again. Glad it happened around lunch. Maybe someone in IT dropped the wall to stream the NCAA.
I just picked up four blu-rays for $50 at J&R.com. American Psycho, Saw, Lord of War, and Doctor Strange. They had weeds Seasons 1 & 2 for $25 but I already own it.
In twenty-four hours I will be a proud owner of Rock Band.

Fuckign GS. I was hoping for an easter B2G1. They do those less and less now that they don't have any competition. Their coupon this week is $20 bonus if you trade in Madden '08 and use it to reserve Madden '09.
'09 comes out in six months, right?
I have Madden '08 for the Wii, I'll probably trade than in and use that plus the extra $20 for '09. But TRU had a sweet deal for 08 I think. Like b1g1 half off. What if they ahve that for '09 too?

My problem with wow is that it's basically a negative feedback loop.
You level but having good gear is more important than leveling, so then you waste time gettign good gear when you could be leveling, but by the time you finally get that gear, you level a couple more times and then have to waste time looking for gear and round and round it goes until you hit $70.
And 70 is cool but you can't really get into it unless you do crazy raid for even cooler loot.
I just got sdick, sick, sick, of killing a hundred fucking farmers for thirty fucking skulls. Or needing 10 fucking pearls yet you've opened twenty fucking clams and still only have 4.
It's basically Blizzards way of screwing you up the ass by prolonging the experience as much as fucking possible so you'll have to spend more money if you want to acheive as a character. Yet people eat it up.
I can be pretty obsessive with silly crap like that so I better never dip into a MMO.

I actually liked DDO for the month I played. It was the opposite of Wow In that regard. Well, except for the firggin' hobgoblin base you ahve to redo six times ina row. But since you couldn't do pvp which is the whole reason to play WoW or most MMO's, it seemed kinda useless. But it's been out for a year so maybe there's been an improvement.

I enjoyed Employee Of The Month, i had good laughs...I actually never seen or heard any of Dane Cook's stuff till then...As for Good Luck Chuck, it would have been a blind buy, the trailers made it seem funny.

23-3 on Countdown on my first game in 4 weeks in Merc TD(M16 w/ACOG and stopping power)
27-5 on Vacant(Merc TD: Silenced P90 w/UAV Jammer and Steady Aim)
26-6 on Ambush(Merc TD: M16 ")
Of course, I kept getting paired up with 5 wubbs that seemed to be trying to make me lose. I was seriously the only guy with a positive ratio, the rest were like 1:2 or worse.
Playing Army of Two, Vegas 2 and Condemned 2 has really made me appreciate IW's amazing 60FPS gameplay. Only thing I'm missing is stupid superficial stuff like the create your character feature from Vegas, which is awesome. Love rocking the Darth Vader look.

Get Ten Speed. My favorite DLc song, I think.
Also, get CrushCrushCrush and Beethoven's Cunt. Good songs and only 90 points a piece.

Alright guys I got a question for you.
I want to do YourPS34free.com and then of course get people to sign up under me. Well I don't really want to trade refs, because there are alot of the offers that I can't do. I also don't have enough cash to pay out the insane amounts others are. So here is what I am thinking.
I will go get a Prepaid Visa Card with like 10-20 dollars on it. Then I will offer to people that I will give them this card number, so they don't need one and it will make them feel comfortable.
Then anyone who goes green under, will be entered into a raffle for something. Well my question is: What do you guys think would be a good raffle prize that isn't too expensive?
I thought maybe a few packs of Games, mixing 360, PS3, Xbox, GC, PS2 and PC games. Or maybe buying some Wii Points or MS Points to give out. What do you think?
Also if any OTTers are interested, I would love to have a raffle that is exclusively OTTers.
