Jesus christ. Ladies and Gentlemen, THIS is why I only play online with people I know. Half the time I'm talking on the phone with one of them while we play. Also: OMFG!!!!1111oneone CS 1z 73H 5U><0RZ!!!!111 j00 n33D 70 P14Y 73H P5YK0N4U7Z!!!!!111oneoneoneone 71M 5H43F3R R0><0rz j00R CS N00133RY!!!!! Thank you, and good night.

Yeah, but what if I only have Sonic Mega Collection and Sonic Gems? I got the MC back when it was a GCN exclusive, dammit. Why am I punished for that?

You gave away Mad Dog McCree? Quite possibly the worst game ever? That needs to be either framed or left on someone's doorstep on fire as a prank. "EEEEeeeewwwww.... I got McCree all over my shoe..." That is a game to be treasured for it's overwhelming suck. To bring people over just to see how bad it is. They stare in disbelief, eyes all aglow as they burst out laughing at the next awful FMV sequence. *salutes* Congratulations, Mad Dog. You're a classic.

Point taken. I was actually thinking more along the lines of how sick I got of Link screaming all the time in every Zelda game since '98 (even the fucking GBA remake used the same audio as OoT. GRAAAH!) but you make a solid case. I find Mario more endearing though. Link and Sonic's yells are too serious. Mario is just so cartoony you (meaning I. I really have no clue about your reaction) can't help but smile when his ass catches on fire yet again.

I think one of the best solutions was given in a comment someone made on your article in the Shack forums. The game chains need to have a shelf somewhere at the back devoted to staff favorites. Sure, a lot of the clerks don't know too much about shit, but there's always that one (I lucked in and got several) who actually know what the hell they're talking about. Give 'em some shelf space to get the good games out. The clerks are surrounded by the shit games enough to know the good. Yesterday when I went to preorder We Love Katamari, the guy working cash was just punching in his own preorder for the same when I walked in. Give the man some shelf space and let gaming goodness reign!

Wow. That Sonic Rush trailer actually looks pretty sweet. The boss fight gave me feelings of the first Viewtiful Joe. Very nice. My only concern now is Sonic's repeated screams of "YEAH!" I'm thinking that could get real annoying real fast.

LeChimp, I know you have Ninendogs. Give us a quick review of that one. When I saw your name there, I thought "*gasp* Nintendogs review!" Then my hopes were dashed. C'mon man. Quit holdin out on us... Oh well. Sonic Gems Collection Sonic CD and all my Game Gear games are back! how come we get Sonic Drift 2 but not Sonic Drift? What the hell is Fang supposed to be? (Sonic the Fighters) God Of War Cool story, stylin' gameplay. Gratuitous boobies. (We're gonna EARN that fuckin' M rating!) People who treat gratuitous boobies like a big deal. Summer 2005 A couple of good games released But not many. Do we really need the new Madden THIS goddamn early?

Damn, I'm a complete n00b. My first photoshop experience was not until 7.

Well, Gamespot's saying Nov 14 for electroplankton, and they better be right, damn it. I wants that game so bad. Stupid two at once release. Now I have to decide between Nintendogs and Advance Wars. I'll get whichever one I'm not getting this week on my next paycheque, but still. WHY MUST I CHOOSE??? I feel like I'm mistreating one by buying the other. On another note, YAY! Mario Kart, Mario & Luigi, Viewtiful Joe. Many happy days to come.

Crap, I'm one of those people who's trying to dig up a copy of Rez at the moment. It's not that I didn't know of it when it came out. I read a review of it on day one and have wanted a copy ever since. I just didn't have the hardware until a month ago. Damn everything...

Wasn't the quote "Drink your school, stay in drugs, don't do milk?" I'm sure he said that at one point...

Yeah. Therefor, I now say: POST DAMN YOU!! YOU'RE MAKING US LOOK BAD!!!

Well, I'm not sure exactly how involved Rockstar was with Earthworm Jim 3D, but if I dig up my cart (not hard, I just need to call up my sister. She's got all my N64 stuff organized quite well in her room) I'm absolutely certain that Rockstar's logo shows up in the intro bits. It was actually the first time I'd heard of the company, being 11 and all, so that sticks in my mind.

I really liked this game. Maybe it's that I NEVER played the GTAs for the random violence and instead have always been into this series for the story. The story was satisfying, and I treated the sandbox stuff like I always have. Pull out a rocket launcher every now and then, but largely just ignore it. I got all I needed from it, now I've moved on to God of War (playing catch-up on the PS2 right now, quite enjoyable). In a month, I'll be playing Liberty City Stories and be right back to ignoring the sandbox yet again.

I just think the guy gets way more fucking attention than is healthy. Not even dressing that awesome deserves the press attention that man gets.

Hmmm. Never heard of it. Who made it/Where did it air?

Well, I'm off to see "The Aristocrats" sometime soon. I'll report back. I'm expecting big things from this flick...

Damn, and to think I just picked one up from Radio Shack. They're really not that hard to come by... Didn't look quite as nice as that one, but works just fine.

The only Rockstar game I owned prior to GTA3 was Eathworm Jim 3D for the N64. Not exactly a classic now, is it?

Goddamn I feel young right now. In January 1990, I was two years and two weeks old. I did watch the original Transformers, but only in reruns. I picked the Autobots simply because to my young mind, nothing kicked quite so much ass as a sentient, transforming Semi. This thread makes me very curious as to the age of the average thumb. Maybe the next thing in this never-ending stream of polls we've had to endure over the last week or so.

Yeah, you've got a point Erkki. Even the expression "covering his ass faster than the new guy in D block" uses said block. The only thing I can think of that didn't use D was Riddick: Butcher Bay. It's been a while since I played that though. The cells may have been numerical in that one, making the Riddick point moot. I never watched that show "OZ," does anyone know if that took place in a specific block?

Heh. I know I guy who got stuck with that nickname. The person who called him that didn't know what it meant and couldn't figure out why we were laughing at her every time she called the poor bastard "Muff." "Hey, Muff. How's it going?" *snicker snicker* "What? What are you all laughing about?" Good times, good times.

Getting harder and harder to focus now. The bite I sustained coming down the stairs into that cellar has begun to spread. I didn't realize that I bite could spread until I felt it happening. Why did I feel compelled to enter that dark pit? There was a lit, heated walkway to my right, but my years upon years of experience told me that said walkway would obviously be locked. Besides, all the best power ups are put in really dangerous places. This in mind, I descended. That was when the corpse lurched out from nowhere and took a larg part of my arm for later consumption. He mumbled something about a mini-fridge as he carted my forearm away from my body. I decided that it wouldn't be worth the trouble to follow him and that I'd go on with just the one arm. What a fool I was. Shit's getting all blurry now. Difficult to differentiate between shadows and life. Is that a kitty cat? A flesh ripping zombie? Merely a trick of the light? My mind races with each hint of movement as my heart thumps heavily in my chest. If anyone should find this chunk of tree bark with my message etched in blood, they would probably be delighted to know that I swallowed the red key and emptied the cabinet in the washroom. (the code is 3 by the way. I hate remembering long strings of numbers) I then took the contents of the cabinet and dumped them down the well. If searching my corpse for the key is not enough of a deterrant, allow me to say to all you would be adventurers, TURN BACK! This is not a place where your magic spells and cloaks will work. They only have any affect in your basement with your 10 sided die. This is the real world, there are no aimbots to help you. Run now while you can, this shit is actually happening...

I also am a guy, and am surprised that this is turning out as one sided as it is. I knew I was in the majority, but DAMN that's a lot of testosterone! (Or not, I'm not here to judge)

Bye!!! Have fun! Then come to Calgary, where the drinking age is 18! Lowest in North America, therefore, w00t indeed! (Sorry, I'm one of those people that's still young enough to care about stuff like that.)
