So I guess the directional disc thing is kind of like that queer one slapped onto some ancient NES controllers...although I suspect that those NES dealies were just for show, I'd never used one that worked properly. I agree 100% on your planet moon notion, but who knows how long that'll take...and at the moment there's only 1 really interesting PSP game, Lumines. Did you play that per chance?

Why, what a nice surprise.

It sounds interesting, but the game right now just looks like some ship odels with no actual gameplay, so you might be waiting a long time.

Testify! Anyway, the LOD problems are kind of in every console game thats sprawling, and even in Pc games like HL2 if you really pay attention. The only solution is: play on a shitty Television.

I'm not sure you can quite use that as an excuse...just look at gamespot. The news has to be funny or shocking to get on the IT's front page though...doesn't really bother me.

Wow, if it was like that I would not hesitate 1 second to pirate it.

That looks like some sort of pill you'd take to radio-map your gastronomical tract! Jeac Custeu of the bowels, sally forth!

I hope this one is longer and harder. You can't really tell if the graphics are any better from those screens, but if it means a quick release I'm all for it.

Woah dude, you can't campaign for your own quote man. Anyway, I find it really bizarre how the Xbox has penetrated the rapper-circle, probably some twisted marketing scheme forged in the bowels of California . I wish these awards just had mild mannered over worked Japanese guys giving keynotes or something,, I would watch then....if I had cable.

This is like fuckering Bothan genocide!!!

I thought he died after he got stabbed in a street fight?...I guess my old art history book was slightly off. It would be nice to go there though.

My guess is that no one gives a fuck. But maybe I'm wrong...could be the angst thing....

Actually 256 MB 9600pro is pretty useless, and will run a frame or two slower than a regular card, unless your going to play with large uncompressed textures in games like Doom 3 (which will be pointless with a 9600pro) there is no benefit.

Yes, but since you did say you knew him personally, "fucked by the record company" sounds a bit nieve. It was more of a "reasonable and easily forseeable occurence".

The way understood it (although I never actually heard him sing) William Hung wasn't mediocre, he was a joke. A running gag that suprisingly paid off; and I doubt anyone was expecting a burgeoning career to issue forth from the steamy bowels of American Idol. I mean, even its' successes are failures.

Romero kind of looks like that sad, fat magician guy who abuses his emaciated cronie...maybe there marriage is a similar set-up. Really though, lay off of the wife just because she isn't mugging for the camera, big stupid smiles for no reason bother me. I prefer the fish eye.

Either way you cut it you're pretty screwed, since you lose most of your money waiting around to set sail again. Speaking of recruiting, is there anyway to get alot more people to turn up at taverns? Besides for when you first set out, I get about 20 in each tavern, and the way the game works out I can hardly if ever get anywhere close to full capcity. I usually have to widdle down the enemy with grapeshot before boarding them because they have a huge manpower advantage.

If you enter an incorrect command you can still hit the right one before you stumble, so maybe just mash the keypad with your palm or something.

Yes, I once met the giving hat. He was most generous.

No, although I also wish the game spanned a broader period of time and more of the globe and made the famous figures an actual prominent component of the atmosphere. Civ on the sea it would be, oh well, maybe the next one .

He didn't get over-ruled, because he alone is the man who Ok's the projects....probably needed a longer yacht or something.

Maybe Chris really doesn't like the action endings because they are all so damn similar. Its OK for an action-based climax if it's actually doing its job and making the viewer excited. Movies are slipping too much into the 'splosions evEwhere' climax, while old films like Pinnochio can get away with their climax because they're original (running from a smoke filled whale=good action). It is indeed sad to see a film slip into crowd pleasing mediocrity, but at the same time it may be completely new to the young kids watching the movie, maybe the weren't wowed by Star Wars or bored by LOTR yet. And if the kids like it, that's the whole point isn't it?

...there is obviously more to this story than I'd like to know. Oh, and the GITS rip off was mostly in style and action scenes.

I've been playing on the second hardest difficulty the whole time, but I'll start a new game on hardest to see if there's a difference (which I doubt).
