  1. You call that poor sales? Poor? WTF? The best game of all time, Chrono Trigger sold about 3 million worldwide aswell. It's a bloody great amount. Anyway, I completed Resi 4 on professional again, I now have an exclusive Blacktail, and Exclusive Striker, a Maxed out Killer 7 and an Infinite Launcher . Starting it again with those weapons...daaaamn, this is gonna be fun...
  2. Um...I'm not entirely sure, whoever it was that said that bass is a shit instrument. If nobody said that then it's my bad Edit: Also, I'm getting my uber awesome Mustaine sig tomorrow!!! I cannae wait. Dang...from this evidence, more people have Yamaha Pacifical than Squire Strats.
  3. There are three things that are important in life, Work, Friends and Love. I don't think we should be here to serve some god, even though the chances are reasonable that he does exist besides, if he is the all knowing all powerful, loving jackass that a lot of people believe him to be, then why s he so egotistical that he needs our constant worship? Fuck it, that's not the god I'm going to believe in, if I doinfact believe in him at all. At the end of the day, all we are is sentient beings, we are mammals, and we live, we die, and we are remembered only through the influences we spread, and the people whose lives we affect in some way. So we should go the fuck ahead and do what the hell we want, because I doubt that were going to ge the chance again. I have to say, looking at current evidence, evolution is an almost entirely implausable theory.
  4. Really great choices here man. The books that affected me most as a person are: 1. His Dark Materials and Catcher in The Rye (By Philip Pullman and JD Salinger respectively), I can't decide which, when a book like this comes along, wrestles with your beliefs and ideologies, and comes out on top, you know you have something special on your hands. These books brought on such stong emotions as I've never felt elsewhere. They are truly Magical. If you do not read these books sometime in your life, you will be truly incomplete. 2. One Flew over The Cuckoos Nest(Ken Kesey): An Absolutely perfect book, based on a man called McMurphy, who is inducted into a mental institute, when it is that he doesn't have any mental problems, he's just a complicated character. The book strongly challenges Americas conformist ideals and is above all, such an enjoyable read with a strong bunch of loveable, memorable characters. More than worth a read. 3. To Kill a Mockingbird(Harper Lee): I first read this in school, and it didn't have any effect on me at all, I didn't particularly enjoy it, well, I mean how can you when you read a paragraph and spent the next two lessons analysing the life out of it. I went back to it a few years later, haven forgotten about it completely, I found that I loved it, and it deals with small town relationships, racism in America and plenty other issues. It is based on the small family of a Lawyer (Attacus) who is one of the only remotely balanced and consciencious people in his town, and his two children.
  5. That's entirely the wrong attitude. There is no such thing as a crap instrument, (I mean types of instrument, not brands) because the all have different ranges/ textures, and they are all useful in different circumstances. Also, believe me when I tell you that being a drummer is the most tiring job you can have (if you're a good drummer, like Dave Lombardo etc), that why you'll see the wind machine, or AC right behind the drummer (which is suppose, is also a bonus). You may be sitting down, but you're constantly using your legs.
  6. Dude, that is fuckin shit, was it a Nick Menza sig? My Mustaine Esp Dv8-r is arriving this sunday . Also, on the instrumentalist front, im Grade 8 (which I completed last March) Pic of my recent setup (soon to change with arrival of new awesome guitar!!) I learned all of the FF7 Boss theme today, the keyboard parts are immense! So much fun to play.
  7. Nope, I think it's as Conzer said ( I know because 2 of my guitars have broken in the exact same way) Take it to a tech, they should examine it for free (but it'll cost you to have it fixed) If its the cable, do the same thing, the tech should let you try it with another cable.
  8. Cause bloody roar: primal fury is hella fun. Also: Naaah, SC and Tekken are better than Smash, but not by much.
  9. I'm good for that
  10. Lawl. Burger has the hiv. Lawl...also...soda??? Get yer yankie ass outta here, ya punk!
  11. Thats my bad. SSB comes just before DOA
  12. Nah, all you have to do Is repetedly press X and O alternatingly and you've won. Unless you're playing me of course .
  13. Haha, cool, you use all the characters that I can't, at all, except for Brian, cause the fishermans slam move is without a doubt the coolest in any fighter ever. I want some tekken figurines too Also: Do correct your point earlier, you can button mash on tekken! Hworang and Christie/ Eddie are the most mashingest characters on any game ever! Me and my mates also always play team battle, with like 4 on one team and 4 on the other etc. I use: Heihachi Paul Asuka (yet to be beaten when I'm playing as either of these 3) theyre my main 3 I also use these very efficiently (even though I don't like them as much as the above three): Kazuya Brian Wang I can also use Law, because he's so easy to use. For SC2 I only use Maxi and Nightmare, because those two were what I found coolest when I played the arcade version, so I decided to stick with em. I hope the next instalments of Tekken and SC and Street Fighter are online though, cause I'm pretty fuckin confident with my ability at those games.
  14. Yeah, I suppose with 2 thats the case, but I still like it a lot, cause when two people play who've got the game and are good at it, its mostly guarding, countering etc, but you have to switch to a different sort of tactic when button mashers play. I donno, I also love SC2, cause the cube controller is perfect for it, and I didn't like the DC controller at all, it sapped all the fun out of the game. Button mashers don't bother me personally, I suppose it should be fun for newbies to play and win sometimes Who do you use in tekken/ soul calibur?
  15. I don't agree about the SC2 point, SC is just as good to me as T5, but yeah, a lot of people don't like tekken because they play once, learn a few moves, how to grab etc, but they think thats all there is to it, when it's not at all. You have to play the shit out of it to get even remotely decent, to learn for example, the grabbing proximity, how to counter, how to do 12 move combos, what strategies to use, how to effectively block other characters' moves etc Tekken is fuckin boss, but like every other fighter, you have to put effort into learning the mechanics of it, and anyone who's played 3 and 5 thoroughly can testify to how fucking awesome it is. Btw, Me = Unbeatable with Paul, Asuka and Heihachi :heh; Fighter heirarchy: Street Fighter 2 + Tekken 5 + SC2 > Virtua Fighter 4 > Bloody Roar: Primal Fury > Dead or Alive 4 > Mortal Kombat (aka, the worst fighter ever.)
  16. Aww, what the fuck?? The dog was boss, he could do headstands!! Monopoly will never be the same
  17. It's hear hear, you tool , and If you're cool like me, it's Hear ye Hear ye. Also, Monkey Ball doesn't hold a candle to Metroid Prime, The Main Game is great but it's a pile of shit when placed next to the godliness that is Prime. But Monkey Ball wins on the multiplayer front by default (and also cause Monkey Target is teh Sex.). Metroid > Monkey Ball. Fact.
  18. That is so a guy, can half see the shaving stubble...
  19. Kiera Knightley is rather hot, she doesn't look right in most photographs, but if you see her in action, you'll know what I mean. Also: Emma Watson is waaay too hot...FACT.
  20. You take it back! This second! Tekken is one of the greatest gaming series evar. This past year, every free period and every lunch break, me and my mates would go and tirelessly go and play tekken 5. It is a fucking fantastic game, but only if you're good at it. Also: I will effortlessly kick anyones ass at it
  21. On the topic of halo: you still want that match dude? Also to Meik: Yeah, I agree with GT but the other three you mentioned are definately growers.
  22. Resi 4, well thats a relief, still it deserves to be 3rd not 1st. My list would go like this: Metroid Prime Metroid Prime 2 Resident Evil 4 Soul Calibur 2 Prince of Persia: Warrior Within Timesplitters 2 F-Zero GX Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes Prince Of Persia: The Sands of Time Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones Waverace: Blue Storm Super Smash Bros: Melee Tales of Symphonia Resident Evil. Ngamers list sucks.
  23. :laughing::laughing:...Oh, touche my friend. Also: With the penis thing...wouldnt that be a bit impractical though? Like, when you sit down, wouldn't it poke a hole straight through your schlong?
  24. Christian Bale was so very awesome in Equilibrium that I actually had to change my pants after that scene with the dog in the trunk (not what you're thinking, I assure you).
  25. Oh, and everything on the disney channel (except for Winnie the Pooh, cause he rules.)
