| Halo. That is all. Ok, I could probably list most mainstream titles, since I rarely have the same love for them as the majority of people out there. I actually don't even hate Halo. I just find it to be a mediocre fps series that is everything I dislike about the genre at this point. It certainly i... |

| Well, I'm not gonna get a chance to finish it, as I'm moving across the country, but my best friend and I have been playing through the game, him as an elf, me as an amazon. My initial impression was very positive. It was almost like someone took a hub based RPG and applied the sidescrolling crazine... |

| Nintendo can literally take bags of dog crap, write "Mario" or "Zelda" on them, ship them to stores, and they'd sell millions. Underrated my behind. Except they never have. I've been playing Nintendo my entire life, and every single game that bore the Mario name was extremely good for what it was, ... |

| I JUST bought it new two days ago for $20 at our local non-gamestop-trade-in place. And there's always Amazon. When they sell new, factory sealed Dreamcasts, I think you can find Okami, yes. |

| I like the sound of that. Resident Evil 4 was good, but a lot of it's mechanics and introductions are what made everything that came later suck. Like turning it into a shooter. As far as I'm concerned, the one that doesn't suck is still RE2. Going back to that will be sehr gut. |

| Emuparadise is pretty clean. I scanned all of mine and nothing seems to come up. As far as custom vs. prebuilt. What's the difference between one computer and another? Some people like to say that homebrews are universally more awesome, but high end Alienwares can trash most. What I CAN say is that ... |

| Monster Hunter Tri is pretty good, got it for $13.99. Okami is fantastic, new for $19.99. I have no idea what Twilight Princess is running these days. The problem with Wii games is that the great & almighty awesome games are all selling used for $40 around here, because they can. It annoys me. |

| Girls is probably the only show that I haven't watched past the first two episodes. I have enjoyed some serious dreck in my day, but I have never, ever seen a dumber show. Poor humor and thoroughly unlikeable characters. I'm at a loss as to why the critics loved it so much. |

My record is 21.983 seconds. My average is between 17-20 seconds, if you discount the ones where I slam the square into the wall immediately out the gate.
Update: Well, my record is currently at 24 seconds. Calling it quits. |

| Aha, a thread right up my alley. Well, I liked the NES & SNES, but primarily because they were my only options at the time. It wasn't until the fifth gen that I got to choose for myself, and that's when I really started to think about games, so that's where I'll focus. PSX - I loved this system ... |

| Well, personally, I'm enjoying it greatly. I think Demian Bichir's character is excellent, and far more interesting than Sonya. Having to deal with her, navigate the waters of Juarez politics, and investigate a murder? Excellent. I'm only 1.5 episodes in, however. As far as Sonya goes... She's way, ... |

| Ay, the entire concept pisses me off... but I'll stay rational. There is no such thing as video game addiction. Some games are designed in such a way that you feel compelled to play, but no, as gaming does not alter your biochemistry to make you physically dependent, it is not true addiction. Someth... |

| I honestly think a lot of the talk about video games being better in the past is often nostalgia. Also after you've experienced a ton of games over several years, everything about them is certainly less novel and engrossing. It's like drugs you would continuously need to keep upping the dosage to r... |
