    Best Online Console

    Ahh, but that's not a good example because I DO play online. I just don't do it very often. However, I have done it enough over they years that I can see the merits and the disadvantages of various online features. And while I don't play online very often, it really steams me when people take...

    Best Online Console

    Aww, I'm touched that my defense of Nintendo's online sparked a new thread. How unnecessary. :shrug: I'm sure the 360 and PS3 are perfectly wonderful for the people out there who actually like online gaming. I do not. The only online games that have ever kept my interest for more than a...

    New Zelda for Wii Confirmed!!

    I played the Wii version of Twilight Princess, and while I had read many comments about how they switched Link to a rightie, I have to say that I never once caught myself thinking, "This just doesn't feel right" while I was playing the game. People just get worked up about the silliest things...

    Fears

    Mostly wasps and hornets for me. It seems like an odd fear since I've never been stung by one, but they just make me cringe away if they happen to fly near to me. We actually have some hornets that like to hang around under the eave outside of one of our windows in the summer, and even when I...

    Post E3 - What Did You Think of This Year's Show?

    I can. It's absolutely wonderful not having to hear or read the idiotic ramblings of the more idiotic examples of online gamers. If I want to expose myself to such behavior, I will build a time machine and transport myself back to junior high. I know some people think it's great to put on...

    Movies That Broke Our Hearts

    I suppose Spider-Man 3 did a little bit. The trailers really had me thinking it would be as good as the other two... Other than that, I can't really think of any. I usually don't let myself get worked up about a movie to the point where it can let me down. Same goes for video games and other...

    Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Wii) Talkback (Spoilers)

    I'm actually surprised to find myself less excited from this trailer than I was from the NSMB trailer... I'm sure Galaxy 2 will be an awesome game, but at the same time I couldn't shake the slight sense of disappointment that came with realizing that it's basically Galaxy with new stages. Not...

    "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" 2009 Talkback (Spoilers)

    I have to admit: tonight's show had me laughing a lot more than last night's. Obama forgetting Conan's last name was priceless, and I loved the whole shopping spree bit on Rodeo Rd. :p

    New Super Mario Bros. Wii Talkback (Spoilers)

    I said this over in the Nintendo E3 thread, but I'll say it here too. If you really watch that trailer, you don't see much of anything that appears to require another person to accomplish. I think we're safe in assuming that this game will be an excellent single player experience for those who...

    [E3 '09]NINTENDO Press Conference [Talkback]

    Just send him to a cel-shaded world instead of a dark world and you could include Toon Link too! :p Re: New Super Mario Bros. Wii I just watched the trailer again and I'm not worried about the absence of a good single player game. They show some footage with only Mario on the screen, and...

    [E3 '09]NINTENDO Press Conference [Talkback]

    You mean the age of games holding your hand wasn't here already?.... That reminds me, I should get a new game soon. Perhaps I'll travel WEST about FIVE BLOCKS and visit my local GAMESTOP. I'm certain I'll find what I seek there.... /joke about video game dialogue. :p And you can trace...

    New Super Mario Bros. Wii Talkback (Spoilers)

    Agreed. Any time I can get some old school 2D side-scrolling action, I'm all for it. This looks amazing. I'm hoping the new Metroid is a 2D game as well...did they show any footage of that one? I guess I could go search the net or check the Nintendo Channel and see... :sweat:

    [E3 '09]NINTENDO Press Conference [Talkback]

    Ooh, that's handy knowledge. I might have to check that out since I didn't catch the actual press conference. Re: Galaxy 2. I may be the only one...but I want another little side story to watch like the tale of Rosalina and the Lumas. The music and the children's book format were just very...

    "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" 2009 Talkback (Spoilers)

    I have a to offer a tentative agreement here. There were a few times in the opening monologue when the back and forth between Conan and Andy seemed rather bumpy. I'm a little unfamiliar with the history between these two other than that I know Andy was there in the early years of Conan's old...

    "Am I the only one who thinks..."

    Am I the only one who doesn't get the appeal of bumper stickers? Perhaps it's because I finally have a new car that I bought myself, but I just don't like the idea of slapping a tacky sticker on something that cost me thousands of dollars. Heck, I didn't even like it when my apartment complex...
