[SIZE=1]I'm not one for evil deeds. I tend to use my special powers for good. But everyone has lapses... Someone I knew left his homework on the desk in a chemistry lesson, and we were using Bunsen Burners for an experiemnt. I didn't really like him, and that piece of homework was pants anyway. Do I really need to spell out what I did? ^^[/SIZE]

I never use Game FAQs. I have nothing like Prima or Piggybank guides on myshelf. I always think my own way through games. All my completed saves are my own work and no one elses. And I take a lot of pride in them :animesmil

[SIZE=1]Repetitive gameplay wasn't so much an issue with Halo: Combat Evolved. It's still fun to play. But Halo 2 was plagued with it. Levels that repeated the most was the levels where there Master Chief is in High Charity. All the corridors look exactly the same, the same enemies are in each room, and you couldn't really hear Cortana telling you what's going on, which means you're being led somewhere, but you don't know where or why. I think Halo 3 will make or break the franchise. I just hope Bungie will realise that and put a little more effort into gameplay and not focusing on the looks so much. But, of course as it's going to be on the X Box 360, it's inherently going to be pretty[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Welcome to the OB Fire Storm. The only thing I'm wishing for out of Halo 3 is a better plot than Halo 2. Not really the writing of the plot - religion making people blind to what they are actually doing seems somewhat familiar >.> its just how the left it that I absolutely hated. There's no gradual ending, where you can tell you are reaching the end of the game and are aware that you are reaching your ultimate goal. In Halo 2, it just suddenly ends and you are left wondering "Whoa. Is that it? Couldn't Bungie fit the rest of the game on the disc or something?" And you don't seem to reach your 'ultimate goal'. I know they did that so show there's gonna be another sequel, but it would have been nice to see it end like Halo: Combat Evolved did - with achievement.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]*tries to bring back the calmness to the thread* I got Res Evil 0 and 1 on the GC, and 2 and 3 for the PS1. Now I'm not a big fan of the horror genre - Doom3 is where I peaked - but the Res Evil games were one of the most suspensful and scary games I've played. My dad got me the Remastered Res Evil 1 for the GC as a joke and he kept wanting to watch me play it and **** myself. it worked -.-' but I did enjoy it. Seriously, is there anything more satisfying than browing the head off a zombie with the boomstick just before he takes a bite out you? A problem with the Res Evil series isn't the cameras or the controls. It's the plot and how it's executed. There's so much stuff going on in and around Racoon City and the games jump around on the timeline it's quite easy to get confused and lost[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1][quote name='Avenged666fold']the guitarist from metallica(some kind of monter ws made now so he is new millenium). For some reason I cannot remember his name but I remember everyone but him and the new bassist wierd.[/quote] Guitarist = Kirk Hammet New Bassist = Rob Tujiro (I think that's how you spell it) And I agree, Kirk is a good guitarist, but not on the St. Anger album, which is what you were considering to be 'new millenium'. I [u]very[/u] must prefered him during the early days, back in the '80s, so i didnt include him. Infact, Metallica were a lot better back then - they hadn't sold out by then :animeangr [/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Thanks for the advice Desbreko. Managed to get past the Jade Brotherhood quite quickly after that :) but now the problem is the first mission of the mainland. And the problem is The Afflicted. They in themselves arent that dangerous, its just how many there are. I think last 2 or 3 times I tried it, I got 60% Death Penalty within the first 15 minutes. I need some real players to help with getting it done - the AI henchmen are useless for it. they never concentrate their attacks. Anyone on the OB who haven't done that mission yet want to try together? Concerning Mini-Pets, some my consider them to be a waste of inventory space as they don't really do anything and you can only show them off to your party out of a town or outpost, but they're so cute![/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Smart move Sakurasuka. Glad to see not everyone is dumb enough to post personal stuff on there =) What I really dislike about EmoSpazz (see above) is partly that which I just mentioned, and party because now pratically everyone I know who has one of these accounts think they know how to HTML. And for some reason, it gets right under my skin. I did an advanced qualification last year in ICT - 2 years ahead of when I should have got it. And one of the tasks was to "design a website for a business". But you couldn't use DreamWeaver or anything. It all had to be coded by hand into NotePad. I passed that exam. With flying colors. And now people think they know more then me about HTML when I spent 5 or 6 months coding by hand, when they just putting stuff into code generators for their EmoSpazz accounts. I'll bet every last brain cell that they don't even realise the basic of html - that every page has to start with and end with (XML is different). I'll stop ranting now as I can see I'm boring you I am glad to announce that I finally got round to deleting my EmoSpazz account. Now the only place I can be found is here and a few other forums and games across the 'net. The only places where I should be found[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]yay. Yes she is very cute....i mean the dragon aswell, obviously... :animenose Anyone else just reached the mainland? I got there a few days ago. I was level 17. I formed a party of 7 henchmen - they're all level 20 by this point. My first battle in the mainland we faught about 2 or 3 groups of Jade Warriors. I got completely [b]owned[/b] :animecry: and none of my party were reviving me. The moral of the stroy? AI henchmen make good team mates as long as you stay alive[/SIZE]

I can still rememeber when the first Super Smash Bros came out for the Nintendo 64. Damn that game was inovative. Unfortunately I never purchased it - I only borrowed it from a friend from time-to-time. But when I got my GameCube, Super Smash Bros. Melee was one of the first games I got. And I kid you not, that game did not exit my GC for at least 6 weeks. There was just so freakin' much to do. Plus its one of the best examples of why Nintendo rule the Party-Game Genre I think Super Smash Bros. Brawl has jsut garanteed me getting a Wii. Can't wait to kick *** as Snake this time :animesmil

"Days" by HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR is easily the most beautiful song I've ever heard, dispite the fact it's in a language I can't understand (but not for long hopefully). The vocals are a piece of art and the guitar is wonderful. Especially the slow, flowing solo. Nearly makes me cry every time I hear it

I'm only familiar with HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR, and they rock my MP3 player :animesmil anyone know anything else that sounds similar? I'd like to know [SIZE=1]ktnxbai[/SIZE]

A few of my favorite insturmentals have been done by Metallica. One is "[COLOR=DarkRed]The Call of (the) Ktulu[/COLOR]", the other is "[COLOR=DarkRed]Orion[/COLOR]". They are both heavy and melodic, which is a good combination. They also did a song called "[COLOR=DarkRed]To Live is to Die[/COLOR]", which is basically an instumental, but they have a few spoken lines - a quote from their Bassist Cliff Burton, who died in an accident and they wrote the song for him. It's a very moving insturmental.

[COLOR=DarkRed]DragonForce - Sonic Firestorm (Japan Edition)[/COLOR] - This, the second of the DragonForce albums is, in my opinion, the best so far. The tracks ranged from power metal to rock ballad. A true airguitar album (not that i need to do that. got my own guitar). If you going to get this album, and I highly recomend it, get the Japan edition, because that comes with a the bonus track "Cry of the Brave", which is one of the best songs on the album, and it would be a shame not to get it. [COLOR=DarkRed]Apocalyptica - Cult[/COLOR] - Something different than usual. 4 guys, 4 chellos and heavy metal. Doesn't sound like a good combination, but amazingly, they manage to pull it off. Its not a totally original album - there's a few covers, but they are superbly done. I particularly like their version of "In the Hall of the Mountain King". A very good twist of a classic.

heh yeh. Sam gets totally up staged by Herman. But Herman always wears a chrisp white shirt, has incredibly long hair and plays an Ibanez. Sam is just....to normal. I think that's why they duel their solos - so Sam gets a moment in the spotlight, albiet a short moment as Herman steps in with his soloing.

[COLOR=DarkRed]Herman Li - DragonForce[/COLOR] - Oh my god there is no word in the english language to descibe how good this guy is. His guitar style is non-stop speed. And it's nothing like thrash metal - all speed no musical thought. His riffs are works of art, and his solo's even more. But he really shines when you see him play. His fingers are a blur, and he can play either side of the fretboard! When it comes to a guitarist to idolise, I idolise this guy. [COLOR=DarkRed]Mick "#7" Thompson - Slipknot[/COLOR] - This guy is my favorite new age guitarist for heavy riffs.Play his music with headphones and the soundwaves pound at your eardrums. Fast and complex, some of his riffs give a kind of hypnotic feel which is very cool. And he can shread. Oh yes he can shread. These two are my absolute favorite new age guitarists. I have some old age favorites aswell, but thats for a different thread.

That mini pet is so cool. Mine's a small chinese-style dragon aswell. Does everyone who got the Collector's Edition get the same pet? Stupid college revision work. It's been 3 days since I last played GWF because of all the work I've been putting into my exams next week :animesigh

I hold no fear for a mutated form of bird flu. Infact, I hold no fear for any disease, because I know it all part of the Natural Selection of life, and it will only make the human race stronger, so if something kills me, it will be better for humanity in the long run. Eventually humans will adapt to fend off the virus, so it is just a matter of time, albiet a very long matter of time, until the whole thing is forgotten about. Majority of the worry about bird flu has been caused by the media hyping the worries and inciting paranoia in a lot of people and who don't understand fully how small the dangers actually are at the moment.

"There are other things in life more important than money. Unfortunately they're all really expensive" -Unknown another one of my favorites quotes is from a close friend of mine: "Perfection is a state of mind"

Internet acronyms are literally tearing the english language apart. People can't spell any more because they are so used to typing things like "u" for "you", and "dnt" for "don't". I try to avoid using them and spell things properly (although I still make errors, but they are unintentional). I normally reserve internet acronyms for when I'm being sarcastic or on rare occations in actual conversations.

well sure that always happens, but I'm dreading what is gooing to replace it. It can only be something more mindless and gets people more distracted. Why can't anything popular on the Internet be mentally stimulating? wait a minute...I've found it here :animesmil

hmm...tricky question... just the one song...it would have to be 'My Spirit Will Go On' by DragonForce. Lyrics: Life is a misery, don't know how it's come to be Death, the epitome of all of our days In the past we had no choice to hear or to be the voice Close your eyes and visualise the demon to arise You know that sanity is not as it was meant to be And now that misery has taken a new stand In the land of a thousand souls we will carry on through the rain In the sun we will move along with the memories of the slain When I see this humanity and the evil that they have come to be We've come to the point of no return and you beg for just... One more time to escape from all this madness One more time to be set free from all this sadness And one last time to be the one who understand My soul and my spirit will go on, for all of eternity Foreign the currency, your payment in blood to be Death is the desitny for all of our ways In the dark you hide away for who or what you can't say When I see the power of the demon come alive You know that sanity is not as it was meant to be And now that misery has taken a new stand On the wings of eagles flying staring on to the sun Reaching for the gold horizon when the war shall be won Can you see the debautury and the blade of death that has come for thee In winds of torment forever more you will cry for just... One more time to escape from all this madness One more time to be set free from all this sadness And one last time to be the one who understand My soul and my spirit will go on, for all of eternity In the land of a thousand souls we will carry on through the rain In the sun we will move along with the memories of the slain When I see this humanity and the evil that they have come to be We've come to the point of no return and you beg for just... One more time to escape from all this madness One more time to be set free from all this sadness And one last time to be the one who understand My soul and my spirit will go on My soul and my spirit will go on, for all of eternity and on a guitarist's point of view, this song has one of the best guitar riffs of all time, and THE best solo ever

Fav song line? The chorus to what I'm listening to now: "Ride forever onwards stare into the sun Where hopes and dreams are everlasting marching on and on Rise another day across the distant skies Where the dawn above the winter moonlight shines upon the fall of our lives" -'Above the Winter Moonlight' - DragonForce
