It's basically a port... But a lot is being added to it as well. The main additions would be a new main character as well as evil versions of Vyse, Fina and Aika. From what I've seen it looks nearly exactly like the DC version, possibly a little smoother. I'm hoping the texture compression on the GC will get rid of that blurriness in the distance you can see in the DC version. Anyway, I'm definately buying it. Comes out here in January (possibly February) I believe.

Well if it was me I'd not buy any of these CDs in a million years (although I guess the first one if I had to)... So I say save the money for later :).

When the spoiler tag was orginally put up, it was still being worked on. I have already added the and removed the font size stuff (there were a lot of odd problems with that, so I've been trying various different ways - you might notice the HTML for it has changed a few times already heh, I've added and removed things to see what worked best in all the browsers). I'll try out the stuff, it skipped my mind. Edit: Using a tag instead makes the entire line black background and any text that isn't within the spoiler tags is forced to the next line anyway. I'll see what I can do about that, unless you have another suggestion about it (or what I might be doing incorrectly heh). Thanks. Also, if I don't force a certain font size within this tag... Opera, Mozilla and Pheonix (I'd assume Netscape 6 and 7 as well) all show whatever is in the spoiler tag as a very large font. Forcing size 2 was the only thing I could find so far that would fix that. Edit - Alright... Thanks in [b]huge[/b] part to MathGuy2's help, the Spoiler tag is working like I would have wanted it to in the first place. It will now allow any font sizes you use (which wasn't working correctly before) and no longer forces a line break. [size=1][b]Edited for double post --Elite[/b][/size]

Pretty boring. Only my aunt and uncle and their few kids came over (they're between like 1 and 5 years old). We had turkey and that, which I'm not really a fan of. It was good with barbecue sauce though. I spent most of the time drawing pictures with my aunt's daughter (I got a great picture from her out of it :)) and playing videogames with the older ones. I guess overall it wasn't that bad.

Hmm... My main problem is that when I'm tired I just force myself to stay up and finish whatever I'm doing. After a while I cross that line between tired and right out dead, and by then I couldn't sleep if I wanted to. I'm just kind of there, if you know what I mean. Whenever I want to fall asleep and can't, I put in Nightmare Before Christmas. I have a lot of good memories from watching that movie with other people, so it relaxes me and I fall asleep. Obviously that won't work for everyone... But I'm sure you have something that does that to you if you think hard enough. Edit: One of my ex-girlfriends does that tensing stuff... She claimed it worked really well, and so did timing your breathing. I can't exactly remember how that worked though, I'd have to ask her.

There were a few... mostly really offbeat arcade games I never saw anywhere else, like Rygar and Moon Patrol (I think that's the name, it was great! heh). The main one that comes to mind is Outrun. It was one of the few arcade games this bar my dad went to had. Most of the time they had pinball machines, but about once every month there'd be something new. One time it was Outrun, something I didn't get to play very often. I got to one of the endings with one quarter, but just barely. That was a pretty long time ago... I had to be younger than 8 since my dad was still alive heh. Second best is probably Double Dragon, which was also at the bar. It took me two quarters to finish that.

One last thing -- If you use the spoiler tag, do not put a color tag within it. It will override the spoiler tag. For example: [spoiler ] [color=blue ] [/color ][/spoiler] will mess up the spoiler tag. As long as you keep the color tags outside of the two opening and closing spoiler tags you're fine... So this really shouldn't even be an issue.

Well a few things... The current Otaku chat works through some sort of IRC applet, which means the chat has to be hosted on some IRC server somewhere (or so I'd think lol). There has to be a way for normal IRC users and applet users to meet in the same room. Honestly, from what I understand the current chatroom isn't that horribly busy, and I don't think an IRC chat room would result in that many more users, Especially considering that you have to download IRC or one of it's hacks to even get on, something a lot of people are too lazy to do lol. IRC isn't always exactly super user friendly (other than some basic options). I really can't see any Otaku IRC chat having more than maybe 20 or 30 people. There are hardly ever more than that online on the boards at once. So yeah, IRC sounds good to me and can be easily controlled. I've been in IRC rooms with 500+ users on at a time and it still goes pretty smoothly. Bots and bad users are easily removed with scripts like Elite said; even permanently removed.

Manson hasn't put out a CD in two years, that doesn't make the band dead. The band only had a high point thanks to ACS and Sweet Dreams, otherwise all their record sales have pretty much floated below or around platinum somewhere. Manson was never had a multiplatinum LP in its entire history last I checked... Which is rather surprising considering how many people know who he is and could easily name a few songs. I know the band mostly thrives off concert sales though. It's mostly that radio and pop has moved past the style Manson, Korn, and these other bands go for. MTV doesn't care about it anymore, so neither does the general public. Neither Untouchables or Iowa did as well as was expected. It's just how the music industry is. It basically seems like most of these bands are just falling back slowly onto the fans they had in the first place, and are being stripped of all the people that clinged on for whatever reason. Not necessarily a bad thing if you ask me. Many bands end up that way. As for the hiphop album, that was Fieldy... And last I heard it was just a side project -- meaning he didn't leave Korn.

Heh. I'd ask for an iPod if I ever thought someone would pay for one... No luck :).
-
No, I don't mind at all heh :). If anyone else has some basic ideas of stuff they'd like added (just simply stuff like the strikethrough right now), let me know and I'll see what can be done.

Right now all I want is money, because I have a few bills and school loans to pay off... I want to get it over with. So... I guess what I want is for someone to want all the random stuff I'm trying to sell heh. Xbox, books, TV, Games, etc. For some reason it's been hard getting rid of any of it.

The Spoiler tag acts a little odd in Opera (if anyone here even uses that other than me), and it makes the font within it rather large. I haven't noticed this in IE, Netscape or Mozilla... so I assume it's a minor thing. If anyone else has the problem let me know, I'll just force a certain font size instead. I left it alone because so many people here use custom font sizes (such as Sara's tiny font heh), and it should allow it this way.

Sadly these are completely from my friend and my own memory... lol. Homer: Purple is a fruit. --------------------------- Reverend Lovejoy: Once something has been approved by the Government, It's no longer immoral. --------------------------- Bart: Come on Milhouse, there?s no such thing as a soul! It?s just something they made up to scare kids, like the Boogie Man or Michael Jackson. --------------------------- Mr. Burns: Smithers! There's a rocket in my pocket. Smithers: You dont have to tell me, sir. --------------------------- Bart: We have to go to that show. Lisa: To get those tickets our parents would have to be part of Springfield's cultural elite. Homer: Can you believe Flanders threw out a perfectly good toothbrush? .... ... ... Eew... --------------------------- Marge: Homer, I've got someone here who can help. Homer: Is it Batman? Marge: No, it's a scientist. Homer: Batman's a scientist. Marge: It's not Batman! --------------------------- Lisa: Dad, I think he's an ivory dealer. His boots are ivory, his hat is ivory, and I'm pretty sure that check is ivory. Homer: Lisa, a guy who's got lots of ivory is less likely to hurt Stampy than a guy whose ivory supplies are low. --------------------------- Beekeeper: very clever Mr.. Simpson. Luring our bees here with your giant sugar pile then selling them back to us at an inflated price. Beekeeper #2: Simpson, you diabolical! We will pay you two thousand for the swarm. what do you say? Homer: Bees are on the what now? --------------------------- Marge: I do feel bad about the starving children. Homer: Don't feel bad, they're with God now. --------------------------- Homer: Don't worry, getting eaten by a crocodile is just like going to sleep... in a giant blender. --------------------------- Newsman (not sure if it was Kent Brockman): This just in: Homer Simpson sleeps naked in an oxygen tent which he believes gives him sexual powers. Homer: Hey! That's a half-truth! --------------------------- Homer (reading Fortune Cookie): You will recieve a compliment from an attractive co-worker. *Gasp* Lenny?? --------------------------- Karl (Homer's temp secretary):Homer, don't you believe in yourself? Homer: Sort of. Karl: Come on, I want you answer me with more self confidence. Homer: SORT OF!!!! --------------------------- Homer: Bart, I'm not asking you to give blood for free. That would be crazy! You may not realize it now, but when you save a rich guy's life, he showers you with riches! Don't you know the story of Hercules and the Lion? Bart: Is it a Bible story? Homer: Yeah, probably... Anyway, once upon a time, there was a big-mean lion who got a thorn in his paw. All the villagers tried to pull it out, but nobody was strong enough, so they got Hercules and he used his mighty strength, and bingo! Anyway, the moral is: is that the lion was so happy, that he gave Hercules this big... thing... of riches! Bart: How did a lion get riches? Homer: It was the olden days! Bart: Oh! --------------------------- Homer: Hey Bartally-boobily, care for a steak-a-rooni? Bart: Okally dokally dear old duddily-doodily! Homer. Heh heh... Duddily-doodily. --------------------------- Marge: Aren't you going to perform the last rites? Rev. Lovejoy: That's Catholic, Marge. You might as well ask me to do a voodoo dance. --------------------------- McBain: The movie is just me standing in front of a brick wall for two and a half hours. It cost 80 million dollars. Jay Sherman: How do you sleep at night?! McBain: On top of a pile of money with many beautiful ladies. Jay Sherman: Just asking.. jeesh! --------------------------- Lisa: Aunt Selma, this may be presumptuous, but have you ever considered artificial insemination? Homer: Boy, I don't know. You'd have to be pretty desperate to make it with a robot! (Marge whispers something in his ear) ..I knew that. --------------------------- Homer: Got any of that beer that has candy floating in it? You know, Skittlebrau? Apu: Such a beer does not exist, sir. I think you must have dreamed it. Homer: Oh. Well, then just give me a six-pack and a couple of bags of Skittles. --------------------------- Sideshow Mel: It's like a hootenanny in my mouth! --------------------------- Sideshow Mel: He's kicking it OLD school! --------------------------- Marge: My name is Marge Simpson and I have an idea. It may sound a little boring at first... Mayor Quimby: Chat away. I'll just amuse myself with some pornographic playing cards. --------------------------- Homer (talking over explosions from the basement): Kablamo! Oh excuse me Marge, it must have been that BEAN I had for dinner. --------------------------- Bart: I've been working for that old hag for 2 weeks, and all I got was 50 cents. Homer: You know boy, back when I was your age 50 cents was a lot of money. Bart: Really? Homer: Nah. Phew.

[img]http://www.intensity-magazine.com/japanpamphlets/1/1a.jpg[/img] Promo poster for the game in Japan ^^^ And there's basically no room for argument on the title, it was revealed by someone at GA who is widely known as a Nintendo employee.

Nice to see you back Ginny :P. Anyway, Lyn (or Lynn too I think) is considered short for Linda and means "dweller by the waterfall." Don't ask me what that's supposed to mean heh. One of my friends has that name, and I remember it for some reason...

They did fade out in most people's eyes... mostly because they are no longer a MTV posterband. Same with Slipknot around Iowas release. I fail to see what their popularity has to do with any of it though heh. I never liked Limp Bizkit, just like I don't like most rap-rock-metal-whatever stuff. All that works for me in that aspect is Veroscene (local, broke up after a member died) and Mindless Self Indulgence. Two bands no one seems to care about anyway heh. Durst is a prick as it is. I've seen so much to make me hate the guy, I wonder how anyone can have respect for him. All his threats to Taproot; the bands supposed auditions for a new guitarist, where they basically got thousands of riffs for free (they made people sign off on whatever they played), and then didn't pick one person that auditioned, etc. I'd rather save my money for good bands that deserve it.

The post was chock full of sarcasm. I admit it could be good, but will it? I think we all know the answer is no way in hell. Micheal Jackson party could be fun. He looks so different every year that there could be twenty characters just based on his plastic surgeries. I still think you suck at the interweb. I guess I should have given you the Poochie Award instead though. It has no signficant meaning. [img]http://home.earthlink.net/~somewhtdamaged/poochie.gif[/img]

Can you imagine 20 people trying to talk at once? It just wouldn't work. And like Juu said, it would have to be installed. I know there is such a thing as vB chats that can be installed, but I doubt there is any voice one. You can always get on ICQ or Yahoo Messenger, both of which allow voice chatting from what I remember. Although I guess you'd have to find someone to talk to first heh.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Mist [/i] [B][color=crimson][size=1] @_@ Scary thought. A [i]very[/i] scary thought.[/color][/size] [/B][/QUOTE] I didn't know anyone else used that face! haha Anyway, I'm interested to know if anyone has actually played this game... lol. Would be pretty damn funny if it was actually good. Who doesn't want to play shopping games with the Olsen twins? I know I sure do.

The new official title for Zelda outside of Japan is... The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Not that bad.
-
It was there quite often, mostly in wide open spots and in certain temples... The thing was that it was never horrible. I remember Majora being a little worse in this aspect. It seemed like both games generally hovered a little below 30 FPS most of the time.

There was only one missile expansion I've found soe far that I don't think I would have noticed... It was in the Phazon Mines beneath the floor, you can only see it with a thermal visor... Which you really do not need to use in the room at all otherwise lol. I haven't gotten to play in a few days. I have a couple more artifacts to find.

I personally don't want to be metally stimulated every time I watch TV. Sometimes you just want to see something stupid that just exists to make you laugh. Spongebob and some of these other cartoons do this for me. The show is supposed to be ridiculous... It's about a talking sponge, what can you expect? I can just imagine some people sitting there straight faced and acting all serious trying to prove to themselves that cartoons are stupid. Just try to enjoy them, it's not that horrible.
