Were you by chance, on a Carnivale cruise for this vacation? No? Amtrak has feces issues, too? Sounds horrific. Sorry that happened.

But hey, 999 sounds awesome, so along with that Viewtiful Joe you guys are helping me out with ideas for what to get my DS if I still can't afford new systems. Appreciate it.

I need that Zelda book, but is it limited edition, I forget. If so, then dammit, should have acted sooner.

Personally, I actually did enjoy one of the PS2 'VAnias I played, but glad to hear Lords of Shadows getting some love.

I have always hated blue shells and their equivalents in kart games, because every time I get hit with one it is always RIGHT NEAR THE FINSH LINE!! AAAAARRRRGH

Screw violent games, that stuff's what makes people go on rampages. lol

That's a nice dad and daughter story, though.

Good ol' pandas.

As 1up and now Pixlbit's resident guy who's the only one to raise his hand and say "I don't play these, may I be excused?" when RPGs that don't involve Nintendo characters get brought up, let me give you a list:

random battles

taking turns

math

grinding

keeping up with a complex inventory

math

that fucking grid thing from FFX that one time I rented it, cause it looked pretty

math

entering a command, then watching a character stab something, when I'd prefer to just control him during the stabbing

math

Ok, so the math is really basic, and I'm making a big deal out of it for comedic effect (and it was always my worst subject), but I'm not an RPG guy. lol I mean no offense, to each their own, and I wish I could get into RPGs as so many others love them and they are very substantive and compelling in many ways, but you asked for gripes, and I gave you gripes. lol

To new beginnings! *clinks glass*

My thoughts exactly; frankly, I put up with 1up's bugs for the community and occassional feature.

Now that the community is on a site where the director and staff writers listen to our gripes and pump out a solution like next day?

I'm only going to comment on the Sea Battle thing, which looks sweet for $5, especially!

I was born in 1990, so I don't remember Tandy, but I had a lot of Tiger electronics games, including one who's surface was the mega man 2 box art!

I did all 500 of mine the hard way, just viewing then copy/pasting onto blogger.Took three days at various times I had free to do it.

How many times were you asked if you were a robot? lol.

Also, your page looks awesome, and kudos for making it look like 1up and keeping the comments. Mine looks like shit by comparison. lol

*Insert SSRI, or other drug reference here*

KRATOS SMASH!

Hey, I never really got a chance to play God of War, but I love dumb fun games; I like to relax and not think too much when I'm slicing enemy heads off.

Now I need to read Watchmen again, but not before I'm done with Catching Fire, at least, if not Mockingjay as well.

What can I say, I seem to enjoy songs by American composers with the last name Williams. lol

I do like the song at the beginning of original MGS though, when Snake is in the water, more haunting and quiet in contrast to the Gregson-Williams triumphant MGS2 opening.
