Wow, you look just like Tweety Bird! Who's that guy blocking the view?

Another thing that I noticed about Max Payne for PS2 is that the levels have been trimmed down. I've actually found a couple of rooms that were once accessible in the PC, only to be sealed off now. Bah! I guess it's fine if you aren't spoiled by the PC version.

Ugh, well I didn't particularly care for Ever Grace. There are some decent rpgs out there though, like Shadow Hearts and the port of Grandia II(if you didn't plow through the Dreamcast version like I did). With Suikoden 3, Phantasy Star Online(pretty sure it'll be out for PS2), Popolocrois III(hopefully it'll make it out of Japan), Skies of Arcadia and both Final Fantasy XI and XII in development, I don't think we'll have much to worry about. If anyone consider's Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance an rpg, than you can add that to the list. I've never played it, but I've heard that it has roleplaying elements.

Here's your college man, right here. I currently attend Rutgers University. I enjoy looking down on my higher education perch at all of you high school and below otakus. Look forward to college; it's a lot more mature and laid back.

Kurt Angle actually used the cross face chicken wing for a bit. He did a short angle where Bob Backlund was his mentor(Back around the time he was Euro-Continental Champion). It's done by standing behind your opponent, bending their arm behind their back and cross your arm around their face or neck. It can be done standing, or by falling to the ground with an opponent and wrapping your legs around them(similar to the tazzmission). I'm just a fountain of wrestling knowledge!

Coughing out white puffs of powder, the Crazy REALLY White Boy, staggered around aimlessly. Booker S. shot a few quick jabs in, only furthering the White Wonder's embarrassment. Blinded, and swinging wildly, White Boy slipped on an egg, that lie on the floor as part of the battle debris. Hitting, the ground hard, his head bouncing off of the tile, White Boy yelled, "Hot damn, that smarts!" Booker S. stared at his palm, evidentally, transfixed on how silky smooth his skin was now that he was using name brand soap, and reassured himself that he was a hardcore O.G. Thinking resoursefully as usual, White Boy grabbed whatever was in arm's reach, which happened to be a jar of grape jelly, and smashed hurled it at Booker S's head. Booker S. crumpled to the ground upon impact, clutching at his face desparately. White Boy, having missed lunch, due to the fight, grabbed a loaf of bread, opened it and wiped it on Booker S, proclaiming that he should now be named, "Booker Smuckers." Unsatified with Jelly alone, WhiteBoy smashed a jar of Peanut butter over Booker S as well. Wiping another peice of bread on Booker, he came to the conclusion that no matter how much peanut butter and jelly he put on a perspiring man who street fights daily, he would never be satisfied with the taste. "Meaaaaaaaaaaan smell, Wooooooooo," Whiteboy shouted, applying a figure four leg lock.....

Somewhere off in the distance, birds twittered in picutresque trees and children played, ignorant of the cataclysmic tooth and nail struggle that raged on under their very noses. As all historians know, the past is a great darkness, and filled with echoes. Voices may reach us from it, but what they say to us is imbued with the obscurity of the matrix out of which they come, and try as some may, no one can always dechipher them precisely in the clearer light of our own day. The glittering starlight of the night fled, hiding behind the milkyway as a big orange sun returned to reclaim it's horizin. Mephistopheles floated high above the morning fog, dew drops dancing at his brow. Babi-dee's spell had filled the burning hole in his soul that the loss of his family had left. No longer did he feel remorse, or the urge to purge the universe of the Saiya-jin race; it was quite evident that the pitiful mortals he sought to protect were addicts of evil. Opening his eyes, his pupils remincent of a snake's, and staring at Li, he grinned playfully. Babi-dee's voice, as sharp as a cutlass, permeated the legendary cross breed's thoughts. [I]"Mephistopheles,"[/I] Babi-dee sang out, [I]"You know what you must do. You, yourself are made for destruction. You've known it all your life. Fulfill your destiny, kill him for me! I give you power, the power that will give you your resolution!"[/I] Mephistopheles's veins sang out in delight, his muscles exploded as demonic blood wet it's appetite on his misery. "[B]What would you do if you knew you could never fail[/B]," Babi-dee's slave asked Li. The soul sometime's screams out, saying for the body what words cannot. Li's nose flared, the corners of his eyes twitched. Raising his arms into the air, he screamed, his voice booming to all ends of the planet, causing streams to ripple and birds to flutter. "Enough of these games," he said, "You call youself a legendary warrior? A legendary warrior wouldn't become tempted by a sorcerer. I won't let you hurt anyone else!" Li's golden locks lit up the sky, adding a golden aura to the striking cascade of colors that accompanies the morning. " [B]Fear is like fire,[/B]" Mephistopheles said, slowly floating towards Li, "[B]Either you can cook with it, Or it will burn you.[/B]" A sudden jolt clasped it's rough hand on Li's heart. Mephistopheles had disappeared, seemingly into the morning vapor. It didn't make sense. His powerlevel, the immense evil-all gone. The world slowed to a hault; everything was a blur. A soft whisper captivated the warrior, not by way of ear, but of the soul. [I]Hold me now, I?m six feet from the edge and I?m thinking That maybe six feet isn't so far down. I?m looking down now that it?s over, recollecting all of my mistakes. I thought I?d found the road to somewhere. I cried out heaven save me, but I?m down to one last breath and with it let me say.......let me say.......that the fear will [B]burn[/B] you.[/I] Li, screamed out in pain, dark energy, thick and black like molases, ripped through his shoulder, rendering his arm useless. Hunched over, his hands pressed to his knees, Li hacked up blood violently onto the ground below, as he sank slowly. Pain suddenly melted over his face and abdomen, as Mephistopheles unleashed his hatred upon him. Li's face was a battered pulp with bruises and welts protruding prominently from the crimson glaze that streaked his features. Visceral fluids oozed out of pustules and the points of welts, trailing from the exit wounds down to the cold, moist ground. His eyes, barely open, illustrated how close to the brink of unconsciousness he really was. Retching again, Li hacked up another large clot of blood before vomiting lightly onto the ground. Taking a moment to regain his composure, he gingerly brought his left hand up from its support position to cradle his ribs, now thoroughly battered. Running his fingers down the creases of the bones, Li convinced himself that at least three of them were broken. There wasn?t much else to be said for it, really. He?d had the brutal reality shoved in his face. Coming here was a bad idea. A mistake. He was far, far too late. That vile abomination, Babi-dee had tricked him; had tricked them all. Tricked him into coming down here, trying to do what was right, and made him pay for it. What he ever did to deserve all of this, he?d never know. But one thing was abysmally clear: Mephistopheles was slowly sucking the life out of him for ever showing up......

[I]Never before released in the U.S., this CD contains music selections from FINAL FANTASY X, the highly anticipated follow-up for the most popular videogame[/I] Hahaha, that's inaccurate. I could buy the soundtrack from Electronics Boutique right now if I wanted to. Anyway, "To Zanarkand," is one of my favorites, along with the one that plays when you actually trek across the ruins to get there.

Children are a beginning of life; they are full of it with happiness. I believe that the children laughing were meant to represent Red's children. After all, Red can talk, so why can't they laugh like people? Them laughing symbolizes the newfound life in Red's race. Note: I really don't believe that there were any more of Red's species before holy. I was all over the world map and I didn't find even one of those critters.

Go to the top left of the Calm lands towards the edge of the cliff.

[I]But why does it even matter if Barret uses those words all the time. I'm pretty sure that the makers weren't trying to be prejudice, they proably just wanted to make him seem like a tough guy.[/I] [B] You ask, "Why does it matter?" Well, Cloud comes off as a tough guy to me and he doesn't resort to constant swear words. Believe it or not, one does not have to cuss to appear "tough." Ever hear of the expression, "Actions speak louder than words?" Auron in Final Fantasy X should be considered a tough guy, and he never swore once. That's just one more example, I'm sure that anyone on these boards could give you a nearly infinite number of examples if they wished to do so. The fact of the matter is, Barret uses an excessive amount of swearing. When someone does this, they are coming across as very unsophisticated. Furthermore, African Americans are stereotyped as swearing a lot. Anyone ever see "Me, Myself and Irene?" That movie satires my point. In conclusion, it matters because Barret is the only one that does it and often.[/B] [I]I have the game and I don't see the problem of them making fun of African Americans. I just hate it when people make threads talking about racial discrimanation.[/I] [B]Please don't ever do that again. Now, you're stereotyping threads on racial discrimination. Discrimination or denying people resources based on gender, sexual preference or ethnicity is a very real problem in society. If you can't handle intelligent discussion on the matter for reasons of sensitivity or immaturity, don't bother taking part in them. However, if we avoid these issues, we'll never come to terms with them. You can't just make believe that the problem insn't there and hope for it to go away. Anyway, Final Fantasy VII and the portrayal of the Barret character have been very popular discussions. I'm not the originator of this debate.[/B] [I]And plus, I don't think that Wakka is making fun of African Americans either, Zero-Sama. I'm pretty sure the creaters wanted him to sound like an islander, not what you meant. And I am not trying to start anything here, it's just my opinoin.[/I] [B]I respect your opinion, but all islanders don't say "Ya?" after every sentence either.....[/B]

I had to deal with a death a few months ago. It actually helps to think about it this way: Those who pass aren't disappearing forever; they are simply moved. It's like if I moved to another state, my family wouldn't see me, but I'd still exist and care about them. Depending on who you are, you may not believe in that stuff, but it makes me feel better to do so. Anyway, here's a little somehing for you that made me feel better before: Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn's rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there. I did not die.

Sheesh you guys are unlucky, but at least your wait is almost over. It should be out by the eighth of March.

Booker S continues his assault, launching frozen delights, baked goods, soda pop, and pampers diapers unmercifully at the White Wonder. Picking up a frozen chicken, Booker S. smiled and yelled, "It's on like neck bone sucka." Moments later, The Nature White Boy became the recipiant of the world's first flying chicken. Arrogant as ever, Booker S. began to "raise the roof" and showboat for the old folks in the express line and little Jimmy the thirteen year old bagger boy. However, the bug-eyed warrior's look of confidence faded faster than all five of his world title reigns put together, upon noticing that the Nature Crazy White Boy had vanished. "Tell me he didn't just do that," Booker S. said to Jimmy, who was profusely shaking his head "No," "TELL ME, he DIDN'T JUST DO THAT!" Out of the corner of his eye, Booker S. spied a white stallion of a man and lunged at him with unrestrained violence. Booker S.'s flurry of fisticuffs slowed to a hault, as he noticed that he was beating on non other than a helpless customer. Rising slowly, Booker S heard a can of beer crack open behind him, and gulped practice bravado. Upon turning around, Booker S was greeted with a devastating left hand to the jaw that sent him into a stack of rice cakes and jelly beans.

Oh yeah....Lunar Legend. It looks like it's aimed for younger audiences. Maybe I'm wrong.....

Yuffy(sp?) from Final Fantasy VII seemed Asian.... .

It's been......awhile. I'm pretty sure that it was punch and the "O" button to deflect blasts. If you want move lists and in depth information you should look it up at gamefaqs.com

Yuna is naive, head strong and serious, but not "yucky" or "fat." I mean really, did you ever even see Yuna? I agree that he'd have been better off with Rikku. Anyway, Tidus can't just go back to Zanarkand that easily. It's like saying that Ginger isn't right for the Professor, so he should just get the heck off the island.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by KyJaUn~FuLlEr [/i] [B] oh SORRY I DIDN'T KNOW I JUST THOUGHT I READ THAT SOMEWEHERE AND I DON'T STUDY GAMES STUFF THINGS OK!!! [/B][/QUOTE] Don't take that tone with me mister. I just think that it's unjustified to put up statistics that are so far out of proportion. Quite honestly, if you had put up something even remotely feesible I wouldn't have mentioned the error. However, as it stands, your statistics were skewed. Don't take my correction as a flame. I was only pointing out your mistake.

I don't think that anyone can tell for sure. Seeing as how the game has a tentative title and N64 textures, I'd say that it won't even make that summer release date. It's a big game for Nintendo; one that they'll want to have perfected.
