I can't remember it very well, but in Wind Waker, when Link has collected all 3 pearls and put them into place to open the Tower of Gods; doesn't he put the last one into place and then it explodes or something (after he thinks it won't) and sends him flying into the Tower wall!! SOOO FUNNY!! I need to play Wind Waker again!

I've got the first series on DVD, am yet to watch it though! Is the second series over here? or did you import it?
-
There is a second DVD that i think i saw about in the shop on http://www.starwars.com; not sure when it's out though (or did you already know about this one?) It's annoying Chewbacca and Yoda don't meet in Episodes 4-6, as they are good friends and would have much to talk about!

I think it may just be the original 3 films, but you could be right! I also found these Episode 7-9 scripts; Episode 7; http://www.starwarssequels.com/ Episode 8; http://www.supershadow.com/starwars/episode8/plot.html Episode 9; http://www.supershadow.com/starwars/episode9/plot.html Why they say by George Lucas I don't know, because I can't see this is how he imagines the story being told but who knows. Personally I don't like these stories (though they do work/make good sense); I prefer the story about Luke falling under the power of the Emperor and then finishing him! Though both share similarities!

You were friendly to me when I first joined the Cube-Europe forums, back when you were known as James'; so I always recognise you when you post and appreciate you as a valuable member. I like your name, Stranger's a cool character and it reminds me of Starfox Adventures "Hello Stranger" and for some reason, the Merchant out of Resi4! Even though I don't think he actually says 'stranger' does he? I always imagine him saying "Welcome stranger" "Got some good things on sale stranger"! 9/10

1up: 23 eerie parallels between Xbox 360 and the Sega Dreamcast
Retro_Link replied to Stocka's topic in Other Consoles
Great read, thanks Stocka!! I absolutely love my Dreamcast and I'm thinking i might get a 360 at some stage; I wish Third Parties would announce Rev games!! Couple of things I don't agree with in that article; - I thought the Dreamcasts controller was great; it felt great at the time (is a little wierrd going back to it now), and the Visual Memory was great too! - I wouldn't say the Playstation was a far superior console! Some Dreamcast games can match some current PS2 games graphics wise! Has the full Xbox360 launch line-up been confirmed yet? It's in 3 weeks or so isn't it? -
How come fireworks/bonfire night now lasts for 3 weeks!!?? November 5th aint what it used to be!

Your water drop pictures are amazing!! Your Insect pictures!!! INCREDIBLE!!!!!! seriously well done!!! Have you taken a photography course at all? It's amazing if you've learnt to do all that by yourself!! The 'Linulta Dimage A200' must be a seriosly good camera for the very reasonable price because the clarity and detail you are managing to get on some of your extreme close-ups (such as the close-up of the Bee with pollen in its fur) is fantastic!!

whats the best games on game cube???
Retro_Link replied to Paper Remote's topic in General Gaming Discussion
No Resi 4 Stocka?! I've still got SO many GC games to play! Baten Kaitos, Tales, Skies, Paper Mario (the RPG's basically!!) and maybe some more of the Resi's, Then there's Zelda and Baten Kaitos 2 to look forward to!! Resident Evil 4 is just taking up so much of my gaming time! Can't stop playing!!! -
GREAT idea!! I also want to see; - an Episode 0 film featuring Yoda - and (although i'm not keen on the idea) Lucas wants to make a TV series i think; which in this case i think should be the Adventures of Han Solo (meeting Chewy, Jaba, Lando, Bounty Hunters etc...)

My favourite Gamecube games include; Super Smash Bros. Melee, Resi 4, Metroid Prime, Zelda; The Wind Waker -
Anakin/Vader does still have good in him and it shines through when he realises what he's become and that he has a chance to save his son in Episode VI!
-
Yeah i heard that the Emperor's spirit returns, and Luke actually becomes the Emperors apprentice in order to get close enough to him to ultimately destroy him! However, where he thought he would be strong enough to not get tempted to the dark side, he isn't and falls under the Emperors power! It's then up to Leia to save him; which she does!

I really like yours dukkadukka; really stylised! 8/10 from me; lesbians or not! it's Great either way!! -
But that's it really; he has nothing else, he's lost the person most important to him and the Emperor is all he's got.He can't go back to the Jedi after all he's done and had the Emperor not found and restored him he wouldn't have made it, so he may as well just give in, even though he is distraught at all he has done!! And don't forget that the Emperor has been playing mind games with Anakin all along to get him on his side!! The final one was lying to Anakin that he had killed Padme when he threw her aside, just so that Anakin would be filled with pain, loose his will and surrender to be by his side (as he has nothing else). Good to see you Fierce' !!(maybe i've just missed you when you've been on!) Whilst the actual story behind him becoming Darth Vader wasn't known; I think it was known that it was due to a fight between Anakin and Obi-Wan. I definately knew long ago that Darth Vader needed his suit because he'd had a run in with lava. Whether George Lucas revealed some of Vaders backstory at some stage I don't know, but i heard it all the same and so i guess he wanted to tie the story up for alot of people!

I thought the way they portrayed it was fantastic! No-one when watching Episodes IV,V,VI, would have guessed that Darth Vader (seemingly straightforward evil!) became the way he is, out of Love! Anakin thought his vision showed Padme suffering and ultimately dying in childbirth and so took the path to the darkside (knowing it was wrong, but all that he could do) in an attempt to save her. However, he had misinterpreted the vision (as the future is hard to see)! Ultimately it was him choosing the darkside that caused Padme to loose the will to live; and this is what his vision had actually been showing. It's such a tragic story!! That had he not tried to save her (from what he'd thought he'd seen), she would have been absolutely fine!! Pure Genios!!

The BBC Finally Gives Us A GOOD Computer Games Show!
Retro_Link replied to a topic in General Chit Chat
A very pretty gal is Emily Booth! And you're right; she's got 'em out a fair few times aswell! Yeah it was a good show when it was on, shame it finished! They followed it with that show that Aleks did with Ian Lee (who also does the Gamestars awards at times); it wasn't very good! But when he presented RISE in the mornings, he was a good supporter of Nintendo at times! -

Yours I really like! Great layout and design, nice colours and style, great characters; and it's classic Mario!! 10/10 -
Yeah this is true!

Ummmm... let me check i'm not alone in NOT doing this!.......... Right??! This one you can have!

Are you serious!!! NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! They can't let Sindi (one of the worst characters EVER) be the reason for Toadys (one of the BEST characters ever) leaving; he needs to go out in a great way, or better still, just leave for England or something! Have you heard he's leaving?????????!!!!

BITCH!!! I HATE that women!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE all the Star Wars films! I think i watched the Original Trilogy from quite an early age, so to me then (and because it was years ago) i don't think i noticed that it didn't look all that great. It's was just pretty cool, the lightsaber battles, the space fights. I also like Episodes I & II (where alot of people don't) because i understand that it's a completely different part of the story (when the conflicts were only JUST beginning), so of course they're going to be different to the later trilogy. Episode III is my favourite of the lot; and it's kinda changed my opinion on Episodes IV,V,VI, because unfortunately now, I want those films to have the same flare, but they don't; The lightsaber fights (especially Darth/Obi Wan) are pretty lame, the space fights (apart from Eps.VI Death Star destruction) are lacking. Darth Vader is no longer in the least bit intimidating (scary for kids) because you know all about him and who he is, and Luke is a COMPLETE little winger! Still love them though!
