He's seriously not here, and I dont know where he is. Someone must know.

Cheech & Chong...I like it.

Well, I was deciding where I wanted to go for lunch, and this inspired me to go to Wendy's.

So I have a Ben Folds Five song stuck in my head. It's not "Brick". I can't remember the lyrics. It was a single, obviously, since I heard it on the radio. I can't remember the name. I can't remember the CD it's off of. It's from the mid-90s. HELP!

You know those mornings that you just can't get out of bed, and you call in sick, if you had a job?

You know those mornings when you just wanna watch TV, eat corn chips and masturbate?

Sure you do.

Well, when those days happen.. what you should do is start thinking about my friends. My little furry, waterproof pals. You know what I'm talking about....

Everytime I hear Ben Folds name i instantly want to listen to Fear of Pop, the song with Shatner in it.

[Xevious]

Its funny. I've been looking for the double cd set of Cheech and Chong (the Rhino collection) but no store seems to have it in stock. I might have to buy this online.

[beerguy961]

250 GB external harddrive for $55 shipped. Good stuff...

250 GB external harddrive for $55 shipped. Good stuff...I should probably get one of those.

[DT778]

I need to get my ass to walmart and buy some sweatpants, its getting fucken cold and im sleeping in shorts. Also I don't think I'm going to get a wall calender this year, it always like a month or two behind so whats the point.

[Saucy Jack]

I should probably get one of those.

Me, too. Need to back up my files, and it's a bitch burning to several DVD blanks every time.

[karsh]

I gotta say, if there's no after thing, the ending for Suikoden IV was weak. There's gotta be something more to it, since they basically don't tell you what happened to the hero. Even the typical Suikoden "Here's what they did after the game was over" thing didn't explain. It just ended with a ... after saying something that was nowhere near closure. I really hope there's a scene after the credits, cause the game isn't as bad as some reviews made it out to be, and I really liked the story, since the Island Nations War was mentioned in the other games.

[MightySlacker]

Kiss my ass, I most definately AM here.

Good News: finally got my Mario DDR after being shipped on the 14th from Panama.

Bad News: The outer box resembles something that took a month to get here from another country.

Glad it showed up though

Holy crap, do you remember any lyrics at all. I've practically got every Ben Folds song on my iPod, so I'd probably be able to come with it if you just gave a little of the lyrics.

Tecmo SUPER Bowl? Or the original?

The Original Tecmo Bowl. I might play some Tecmo Super Bowl later.

[sblymnlcrymnl]

I've actually played a few games today. :shock:

I started off with some PoP:TT, then went back to PoP:WW, then some BloodRayne 2, and finally a bit of HL2. This was all within a 2 hour span. Now it's time to eat dinner and watch the second disc of Scrubs season 2.

[Danro]

Speaking of dinner: had ramen with a few boiled eggs, mmmmmm. Beef flavored of course. But those chicken nuggets in the freezer are callin my name......

[flowery]

Tecmo Super Bowl isn't as great as I remember. I guess the original was so basic that you fall in love with it.

that tecmo dodgeball game is so addictive. i would buy it if it had wi fi.

Tecmo Super Bowl is the shits! That is the game I have rented most in my life. I had a tecmo bowl game on my old cell phone but it only worked for a few days, after that it would freeze my phone when I tried to load it.
If only there was a way to play tecmo super bowl that online :pray:

[karsh]

Wow. That will be unexpectedly quick. I ordered Naruto 4 from Estarland earlier today. The site said it'd take 2-4 days to process and ship out and then I chose to get 2-3 day shipping in hopes I would be able to get it before I head back to college next Tuesday. Well, apparently they shipped it out today and I should get it tomorrow. That's damn quick.

Man, I just had the craziest dream. I dreamt that I went in for a massage and while I was getting the massage they let me play some psp. Well I was so caught up in the game that I hadn't realized that masseuse had stripped down and offered me sex. It was for $21, I don't know if that's a good price or not to pay for sex, but I did it anyways because I was afraid if I didn't they would make me leave and wouldn't be able to finish my game.

For $4 less you could have gotten an entire YEAR of XBox live. Sorry, this find has me psyched cause I got a really good deal on something I actually wanted/needed already. Not just a $10 game that I picked up because it was cheap or something..

[Saucy Jack]

In honor of this OTT, some classic lyrics/transcripts of Cheech & Chong:


My momma talkin' to me tryin' to tell me how to live
But I don't listen to her 'cause my head is like a sieve
My daddy, he disowned me 'cause I wear my sister's clothes
He caught me in the bathroom with a pair of pantyhose

My basketball coach, he done kicked me off the team
For wearin' high-heel sneakers and actin' like a queen

The world's comin' to an end, I don't even care
As long as I can have a limo and my orange hair
And it don't bother me if people think I'm "funny"
'Cause I'm a big rock star and I'm makin' lots of money
money, money, money, money, money, money
Ahhh! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...

I'm so bloody rich! Ha ha ha ha
I own apartment buildings and shopping centers! Ha ha ha ha
And I only know three chords! Ha ha ha ha

I SAID TURN THAT THING DOWN AND GET READY FOR SCHOOL!

Hey! What are you trying to do?! You ruined my record man, I just bought it!

I don't care what you just bought! You get your little fanny perpendicular and get ready for school.

I'm not going to school.

What do you mean "your not going to school"?

Just what I said, I'm not going to school!

And why not?

Because I'm sick, that's why not.

Sick, you're sick alright! What's wrong with you now, Prince Charming?

I got an earache.

An earache my eye! How would you like a butt ache?! Now get your little fanny out of that bed and-and clean up this room, it looks like a pig sty. You hear me?

[Pig snorts]

Alright, that's enough! That's enough! You pushed me far enough, young man, you're getting punished. Now stand up!

NO!

I said stand up!!

AHH!! Let go of my hair man!

Now young man, I have talk to you and talked to you and talked to you 'til I'm blue in the face, and I'm done talking to you!

Good, does that mean you're done spitting on me, too?

SHUT UP! I'm not done talking to you! Now turn around and bend over!

Oh, what are you gonna do, you pervert?

Pervert, why you snotty nose!

OWW! OWW! OWW! OWW! OWW! OWW! OWW!

Oh, shut up! I haven't even touched you yet! NOw I want you to know this is gonna hurt you a lot more than it's gonna hurt me.

*small smack*

Oh wow, that didn't even hurt.

Oh yeah?

Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones
Got a Basketball Jones, oh baby, oo-oo-ooo

Yes, I am the victim of a Basketball Jones
Ever since I was a little baby, I always be dribblin'
In fac', I was de baddest dribbler in the whole neighborhood
Then one day, my mama bought me a basketball
And I loved that basketball
I took that basketball with me everywhere I went
That basketball was like a basketball to me

I even put that basketball underneath my pillow
Maybe that's why I can't sleep at night
I need help, ladies and gentlemens
I need someone to stand beside me
I need, I need someone to set a pick for me at the free-throw line of life
Someone I can pass to
Someone to hit the open man on the give-and-go
And not end up in the popcorn machine
So cheerleaders, help me out

{cheerleaders sing repeatedly...}
(Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones)
(I got a Basketball Jones, oh baby, oo-oo-ooo)

{while Tyrone Shoelaces sings/speaks...}
Oh, that sounds so sweet
Sing it out
C'mon Coach Booty, Red Blazer, sing along with me
That be bad, honky
Yeah
I want everybody in the whole stadium to stand up and sing with us
Oh yeah, sing it out like you're proud
All right, everybody watchin' coast-to-coast, sing along with us
Bill Russell, sing along with us
Chick Hearn, sing along with us
Chris Schenkel, don't sing nothin'

Oh, it feels so good
Gimme the ball
I'll go one-on-one against the world, left-handed
I could stuff it from center court with my toes
I could jump on top of the backboard, take off a quarter, leave fifteen cents change I
could, I could dribble behind my back I got more moves than Ex-Lax I'm bad I could
dribble with my tongue Here I go down court, try to stop me You can't stop me 'cause I
got a Basketball Jones Here I come That's my hook shot with my eyebrow Yeah, I could
dunk it with my nose I'm, I'm bad as King Kong, gimme the ball I'm hot, I'm hot as...,
I'm hot as..., I'm hot as... uh Uh, uh, uh, uh

Yeah I played them both as a kid. I was a little harsh on TSB but I guess it is because I haven't played it since I was a kid. I have played Tecmo Bowl off and on for a long time. That and RBI Baseball consumed alot of my life.

Oh I understand, my bad.

I think I'm going to need a new power supply in the next month. The one with my Dell 4600 is starting o drag. At times I can here a funny buzzing from my PC and I think it's from the power supply fan. And I'm getting power supply glitches.

For example, I just added a 300 Gb Sata hard drive. After adding that equipment, that's when I first noticed the power supply was straining. When I boot up, about 20% of the time, there's a boot error where the bios has a problem auto detecting my new HD. Especially on really cold boots.

I think the problem is that the initial draw is so great when the PS isn't warmed up, that it can't handle the intital draw. So the Bios doesn't see it there until a split second too late. And then goes, "Hey, there's a hard drive here that I can't detect." This only happens on cold boots. And as soon as I hit the reset button the computer boots normally.

Further, I've decked out this PC since I got it. I've added a gig of memory, a 7800gtx, a 300 GB Hard Drive, and a USB wireless receiver. I think the hard drive just put it over the top.

I think if you didn't put the 7800GTX in there, you'd be OK.

Though it does sound like the PS is getting too much draw out of the initial power-up cycle. Finding a bigger one is going to be pretty much impossible, I'd bet.

Yes, yes it can. Especially when you try to play through as Spartan cause she's so fucking slow compared to Alpha.

I'm guessing it has something to do with smart marks or a shoot, or somesuch.

[Matt Young]

The Smart Marks, yes. But as you mentioned, she does go to Shoot Project/The Pit, although I rarely visit there. They did have Matt Young Appreciation Day, though! Haha...

I guess that's good for them, though I think I must not "get" wrestling.
I think I understand the diehard fans even less. They bitch about workrate one minute, and then talk about how great the latest slug getting carried by a gimmick and a catchphrase in the next.

[Matt Young]

I don't get that, either. I'm a diehard fan, but I tend to enjoy almost all aspects of the product and rarely bitch about things.

If you don't "get" wrestling, how were you made aware of those boards?

[Admiral Ackbar]

I went into Best Buy today and laughed when I saw they had over seventy copies of Sly 3 on the shelves, over 50 copies of Star Wars Battlefield 2 for PS2 and over fifty copies of one of the WWE games.

Best Buy's buyers are almost as bad as Media Play/Musicland's are. They have to be buying into all the hype that the game companies throw out there and buy everything their salesmen are telling them. I mean there are STILL 30+ copies of 50 Cent Bulletproof that are 50% off at my local Media Play that is closing. That's pretty sad when a 2 month old game can't sell at 50% off.

Yeah, I found it to be quite funny. I might consider it if they game (and price-cuts) make it down to 90%. :D

[flowery]

I need some help. I am trying to remember another NES game that I played all the time as a kid. It was an Olympic Track & Field type game and there was a pad that you could use.

There's a place with a Matt Young Appreciation Day? Makes sense, because Matt's eventually going to be the Whole F'n Show, right? :)

Heh... Unlike this place and other boards I go to, a lot of people don't like me at TSM/The Pit. "Matt Young Appreciation Day" consisted of people re-posting threads from the TSM "Classic Threads" forum, substituting my name in place of other words.

As for me being the "Whole F'N Show"...

In semi-related news, my cousin and I spent a summer about 6 years ago playing Fire Pro D and pretending to be RVD and Fonzie (I was RVD). This was inspired by my cousin receiving a whistle. I'd blare Pantera's "Walk" on my shitty CD player and give Van Daminators to neighborhood kids. I even powerbombed one kid through a card table, not letting go of him so as to not accidentally kill him.

It was Menards, actually. How it ended up there is probably an interesting tale.

edit: they had Neverwinter Nights and Tron 2.0 for $6 each, too. I'm going to have to start making semi-regular stops there, I guess.

[sblymnlcrymnl]

Just finished up Scrubs season 2, now it's right back to season 1 for the commentaries. Maybe I can find a torrent with all of the last 3 seasons ... :-k

And it looks like I won't be leaving for Jersey until Saturday. Joy, another day of work before I spend the better part of 3 days in a truck. At least it means a bigger check.

[karsh]

My brain hurts after everything that just happened in Star Ocean: Till the End of Time. So much random shit happened on the Moonbase, I'm like "What the...". In a good way. Damn this game got a hell of a lot more fun after reaching Peterny.

[Admiral Ackbar]

I'm reading the smoking Guna rticle about Frey's book a million little pieces. I've never read the book nor did I have any interest. But just reading the excerts from the book on the smoking gun website, it just reeks of absolute 100% bullshit.

How could someone get conned by this as real. It looks like it has great prose. But he claims to have done so much shit that it's humanly impossible. Hunter S. Tompson did crazy shit for a large part of his life and he couldn't have done a quarter of this shit frey claims to have happened to him in four times the span.

I mean, the whole priest grabbing for his crotch thing, I laughed. There is no way that happened. I might even for a split second it might even be plausable if it was an exception. Shit like that doesn't happen every day. It's conceivibly possible. But it's one wild implausibility after another and another and another and another. There's know way all of them can be true.

I've done some small writing of fiction and non-fiction, and I'm, working on my first fiction book, which knowing the odds of publishing, if I ever do finish it (because we're all woirking on a book, aren't we) I'll be lucky to have five thousand copies sold. But I've done enough personal writing and study of writing to notice the differences between fiction/nonfiction., Reading the way things are written sometimes it rings as untrue. And just the very prose that Frey uses rings untrue.

And from everything I've heard, it's a great book. So why the hell did he have to lie? He could have had the next Tropic of Cancer. Maybe he felt, and I know the desperation to break into the publishing world, that he had to lie and pass along the book as real to draw attention to it. But it's just stupid. He could have written the book exactly the same if he said it was fiction. And if it's truly as good as people say, it would have still been picked up.

I just boggle as the gullibility of people. Millions of people reading this book and thinking it's true. Just reading the excerts makes me disbelieve it!

I'll warn you now, it starts out REALLY slow, and it's almost annoying. I stopped playing for a year. But once you get to the part where they let you play with the item crafting system and give you free reign to do what you want, it's just so awesome.

Which book is this again? And what are books? And reading for that matter?

[FriskyTanuki]

[Admiral Ackbar]

I have this book but I haven't started it yet.

I guess the best way to describe it, it feeds on impressions people have on certain ideas, and not on how they actually work in the real world. Again, using the priest thing as an example, there are people who think that a large portion of catholic priests are homosexuals or pedophiiles, so hje writes a segment about how he';s assulted by a priest.

The thing is, the way he describes it, it is the exact way a pedophile or homosexual WOULDN"T seek out a victim. He wouldn't
t just grab some guys crotch who walks into a church. He would pick a target, someone he knows, and slowly earn the trust of the victim. Nor would someone who's living a double life so brazenly, openly, and clumbsily reveal a secret of such magnitude as forcing a sexual assualt on a stranger in the church.

But for people who don't know anything about the mind of a pedophile or a sexual predator, that description feeds into their uninformed assumptions of how such a monster would behave, so it rings true to them, even though in life almost no such actual person would behave in such a fashion.

[Gothic Walrus]

Sleep? You sleep at college?
On occasion. Because the people who assigned scheduling blocks hate me, I have two eight AM classes that require a 20 minute commute from my dorm. And since those are both labs, it's probably best to sleep before than to sleep during and burn a hole through my arm because I wasn't conscious. :)

[Admiral Ackbar]

Did anyone see last nighs AS buimper heralding all their new shoes. 20 New Episodes of Moral Orel (I still haven't seen that show) in March. New episodes of Minoriteam (That either.)

And then it says, "We would have had new Venture Brothers sooner, but the guys are working extra hard to make this the best season ever."

They know their audience.

[jmcc]

Speaking of microwaves, ive got a wierd question: if you dont put anything in the microwave and turn it on, what gets hot?

[RedvsBlue]

Speaking of microwaves, ive got a wierd question: if you dont put anything in the microwave and turn it on, what gets hot?

The magnetometer will absorb all the heat and basically bust your microwave. A faster way of doing this is to just put tinfoil in there and reflect it directly back at the magnetometer.

I'm picking out CDs to take with me on the drive to Jersey. For some reason I've opted to take my 24 CD case instead of the 320 disc case that already has a good 75% of my stuff in it. Now I have to decide who makes the cut ... :-k

[beerguy961]

Speaking of microwaves, ive got a wierd question: if you dont put anything in the microwave and turn it on, what gets hot?
I would assume nothing, as the microwaves have no water to heat, thus all the waves get absorbed by the metal in the microwave. Interesting problem though.

Microwave fun: http://home.c2i.net/metaphor/mvpage.html

[Admiral Ackbar]

I find that it's important to do two things. First, let your food sit in a microwave after it's done cooking for one or two minutes. Most people pull it out right after the buzzer.

Secondly, sometimes it's better to cook your food in parts instead of one long burn. In other words, depending on the food product, cook it for a minute, let it sit thirty seconds, then cook for another minute, instead of cooking it two minutes straight.

[FriskyTanuki]

Passing on Venture Brothers for episodes of Morel Orel and Minoriteam? Uh, no, bad move, AS.
How is letting the VB guys work on the show so it's good a bad thing? You want them to release it earlier with the good chance of suckage?

Can't wait for Moral Orel, as having the first episode be a Xmas special wasn't a good move to make a good impression on people. Wasn't bad though, but the first commercials seemed much better than what they ended up premiering with.

I'd rather have more VB than more Morel Orel and Minoriteam.

[jmcc]

I'd rather have more VB than more Morel Orel and Minoriteam.
My theory is that they're putting out increasingly awful shows to make other previously awful shows look good. Morel Orel and Minoriteam are the crutches to get 12oz Mouse into everyone's good graces.

Awesome. I just wanted to try it out, 'cause I've wanted to play FF1 forever, so I didn't play much, but what I did play, I noticed the black mage has much less HP than the others. While he gains, say, 8 HP, the Thief gains 29. But his magic is killer!

yep, the white mage is weak, so i just have it heal the black mage/party most of the time

IIRC, the new Cylons are human on a cellular level. Still doesn't explain how or why Boomer had to 'jack' herself into the Cylon collective mind through her wrist.


From what I've been told by people about it, it's not that they're human on a cellular level, they've just adapted themselves to look and be percieved as humans. Now, I haven't watched any of season 1 or the first half of season 2, so I may be just spouting off stuff that's entirely wrong, but that's what I've heard from people. That's why it seemed like the one guy was contemplating whether his child would be a toaster or not. Though I'm enjoying the fact that apparently anything sexual related to the Cylons is immediately akin to having sex with a toaster.

[sblymnlcrymnl]

The parents don't seem too bad. The kids aren't that bad, but waking up early in the morning is.
But yeah I'm tired of the kids poking my breasts. I just hope to god they just don't know better.They didn't tell you about that part when you signed up, huh? Hopefully you can get them to stop before you lose it and yell at one of them.

[karsh]

And it appears I've been told wrong information again, as Wikipedia states that apparently Cylons modeled after humans are made to be the same externally and internally. Thus, it really kinda makes sense why Boomer would be pregnant.

I only slept for about 2 hours yesterday, and it doesn't look like I'll be sleeping tonight at all. Hopefully I can catch up on that while we're driving tomorrow. And the next day. And the next day. And the next day. :cry: :lol:

How is it that McDonalds can suck all day long but come 4am there's nothing better than a serving of their breakfast offerings?

I think I'll watch some Scrubs commentaries, that should fill the time before I have to pack a bag for the next few days.

You know I would tell her, but she doesn't know who you are anyway so it would just be weird. ;)

Well fuck my ass and call me Charlie, I've got 5 minutes until we're supposed to leave and I haven't started packing. Luckily for me I never did empty my bag when I got back from Mexico. :lol:

What a crappy way to start the day. Woke up with my stomach hurting, my cell phone when into "unresponsive callback".. which basically means it froze while I was texting, it powers up but never fully comes on, and i've lost all my pictures, text messages and phone numbers - again. This will be the fourth exchange i've had on my phone. Unbelievable. Before this model, the model I had before (the t720) lasted me a few years.. this model, the LG5200, won't even last me a few months. At least they exchange it out for me since it's under warranty. They better not give me trouble, this is all their fault.

:snitsky:

[Saucy Jack]

Yeah, I'm off to a shitty morning myself. I had a wonderful dream that was interrupted this morning... and I woke up and somehow I've lost my voice. I think I'm getting some kind of throat or resp. illness.

On other, completely random notes. I found my NES and hooked it up. Played a little bit, but it was a bitch to get carts to load. Need to buy a new 72-pin connector.

Best deal all-around (shipping, cost, etc.) seems to go to this seller:
http://cgi.ebay.com/PREMIUM-72-PIN-Nintendo-NES-CONNECTOR-Best-Connectors_W0QQitemZ8250386746QQcategoryZ41046QQrd Z1QQcmdZViewItem

Anyone buy from him? Seems like he has a lot of happy customers, gives a lifetime warranty, is an authorized Nintendo reseller, and doesn't overcharge for shipping. If this is a good deal, I might pick up one of these next week.

Also, I finally hooked up my Xbox again. It now takes up the last remaining spot on my component selector. I've missed it, since I have a few titles that aren't BC. Now I just need to hook up my GameCube, and maybe finally start playing Wind Waker sometime before the new Zelda game comes out.

[SpottedNigel]

Hell, I just ordered one. Seems legit in every way possible, and for 8 bucks so my mom does'nt have problems switching out Bubble Bobble for Burgertime is very much worth it :)

GO PLAY WIND WAKER!! I've started playing it 2 days ago so that I too can beat it before the next Zelda. You get used to the ocean after a while, and pretty much at that point you get the ability to warp around the map. The story gets pretty damn interesting too when you get the Master Sword...

Cool. I guess I'll order one next week. Should be fairly easy to install. Then, I'll just need to clean my carts with the good ol' Q-Tips and rubbing alcohol solution.

Yeah, I need to play Wind Waker. It's still sealed from a few years ago, along with some other sealed games: Shenmue II... KOTOR II... and a few others.

[flowery]

I need to find me a good condition NES or SNES for really cheap. I just had this urge the last week to play some classics and I have about five PS2 games that need finishing.

[SpottedNigel]

If your like me and bought Shenmue 2 due to your love of the DC original...it may be best to just either skip it, or play the euro import on a DC (makes it different...somehow...it just FEELS different)

As far as instalation goes, there's no too much to worry about...I took my old one apart to get the contacts not as beant out of shape, and it was easy to put back in place.

Well for a snes I'd check the trading forum. Pretty much everyone wants one in mint condition so there are a number of systems that have yellowed plastic that work just fine but no one will make an offer on.

As far as a nes you might consider buying one of the new third party systems, a friend of mine has one and it works great.

[SpottedNigel]

BTW, the main reason im playing wind waker right now is the amount of times ive heard/read about the ending. Bits and peices, im not sure what happens, but apparently Ganon gets his butt kicked in a MAJOR way...and im just too damn curious

I'm pretty sure you're just playing it because you like dem little cartoon people.

If you've played OoT, then you owe it to yourself to play through WW. It's the real ending of that game.

Well, I actually rented Shenmue 2 when it was released, and almost beat it during the 5-day rental. So, I just need to finish it.

When you put a new 72-pin connector in, is it really as great as everyone says? You just put in a game and it'll start playing without trouble?

[SpottedNigel]

Actually i've been laughing and smiling while playing that game due to the characters and situations. I actually do like the look, but the next Zelda does look better in just about every way possible.

And thanks for not helping JMCC... like I needed to hear more about the ending i have yet to see...ARGH!

[flowery]

What is a normal going price for a NES and SNES set up now-a-days.

From all tales told, combining a new connector and recently cleaned games, its as if you opened up a brand new system. The cleaned games part is technically not needed, but will help prolong that new fresh feeling :)

On a side note, I just had a customer ask "Do you have Darth Vader?".

There seems to be a few words missing from that sentance...

Don't worry, I didn't tell you much at all. I'm just of the opinion that the game is a love letter to OoT afficianados. It gives the original game a lot more dimension, I think.

So I stopped at EBGames, looking for some of those new DS styluses (The extendable Hori ones). I found them and left, and decided to stop in Game Stop for the hell of it. what do I find, but a used copy of Phoenix Wright! Now, this may not sound amazing, but no one around here has had a copy of that game new or used for a good while. So, I'm pretty happy, and take it up to the counter. I'm pretty sure it's used, since it doesn't say ~~NEW~~ or whatever, but when he sees the case, the clerk went back and grabbed a sealed copy from the back. It cost me $30, so, I'm wondering if it's used or not. Either way, I'm glad I got it.

So, yeah. I'm pretty happy I found a copy.

Then I picked up a few manga titles (buy 3 get 1 free!) and new 120 DVD rack for my games/DVD sets I had no room for.

[DT778]

PW is a fun game. I just need 2 more cases then I can trade the game here for maybe Tony Hawk DS or maybe for that animal crossing game.

[Rocko]

Tony Hawk is a pretty fun game. I like it, but it's way too easy, making it too short. Personally, I just like free skating. If you have Wifi it's probably a lot better.

In short, I reccomend it. :D

For those who peruse Penny-Arcade more than I and actually have a memory...they linked to a comic strip that involved the comic box getting into a disagrement with a word bubble...or something similar. Anyone have a fucking clue what im talking about?

I remember my first play-through the game was somewhat challenging. But after I discovered the trick I totally blew everything in my path away.

Movie or game? I definitely agree about the game.

If you didn't like the movie, you might want to check out the novelization. It's really good; much better than the movie. I was disappointed after reading the book and finding that a lot of it wasn't put into the movie.

[Scorch]

The movie. I have the game in the 360 but i'm too lazy to try it out. I don't want to read anything involving the trainwreck that was the movie.

I don't blame you. I was in a similar situation one time. I saw some movie (can't remember what it was... thankfully ;) ), and I hated it. A friend of mine said, "You should read the book. It's much, much better." After wasting a few hours on a piece of crap on film, I wasn't about to waste even more time going through that crap on paper.

Well what exactly did you expect from a movie based on catholic dogma? I mean look at all the other quality movies it's produced: End of Days, Dogma, The Prophcecy series, The last temptation of Christ.

I didn't say it was a bad movie. It was actually good. However, the script was much better. There's some stuff in there that would've been great in the movie. If I could just remember what...

Maybe Kevin mentions it in the commentary on the DVD or something. But I definitely remember reading the script after seeing the movie, and thinking that some parts of the script should have made the cut.

[FriskyTanuki]

Very good movie. :razz:

Dogma was OK... but it was much better as a script from what I remember reading.
Dogma was great, I love some of the stuff Kevin said about when the movie first came and it was getting protested by preaching Christian freaks and he joined some friends in protesting his own movie as well. They made signs and everything. :rofl:
