Glad to see all the Gundam wing hate, I really couldnt stand anything about it. After watching Evangelion a bit more: Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Its remarkable how one can perceive both endings to the series as both positive and negative. For example at the end of episode 25 and 26 Shinji finds his self worth, actually smiling at the end of the episode but then again he has accepted instrumentality. He no longer lives in the real world, but only in his ideal world where he is actually liked. Which one is better? The same thing goes for end of evangelion, first time I saw it I thought it to be the “sad” ending of the series. But after another view it is clear that Shinji rejects what could have been in episodes 25 & 26 and chooses to live in the real world. The world that is harsh and cruel to him, the world that will judge him and not care about him. Shinji accepts reality over a fake paradise. The fact that the last line of the film is “how pathetic” clarifies the fact that Shinji is in the real world, the same world that he fails to fit in. Shinji is both misrable and happy about the fact that he has chosen reality. Although thats just my view, Eva isnt really something with a definitive answer.

No Kyo or K' or even Iori in the kof bracket? Odd... But fuck yeah Terry fighting Ryu sounds awesome (Terry being the man of cource). The most common end boss of Kof is Rugal...but I really cant stand his design or moves. Krizallid, Orochi, Igniz and Goenitz are all superior to Rugal.

From The Magic Box: "Capcom announced they will release a new fighting game Hyper Street Fighter II X for PlayStation 2 in Japan in December, to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Street Fighter, future details will be available at the Tokyo Game Show." Well if it wasnt for the glaring II X I would say it was a new game...

Unlimited saga: Anything thing else is a waste of words.

She's right, gold armor is the tip top secret in X3, just as well since the hadoken was bad enough in terms of how destructive it was. X1 is way too easy, a novice can beat that game by just using the buster. X2 on the other hand is a great game if you try to finish it with Zero's parts. My tied favorite with X6.

Oh come now, the main death scene in FFVII was hillarious.

Eh I dont really like any of the FF games, VI was one of the better ones but Square has always done much better.

Not enough for you to actually play it properly. Cant help you with N64 roms, I dont do any 64 emulation.

Best RPG ever IMO has to go to Chrono Trigger. If it had a better story it would be a candidate for best game ever.

I think the only games I'm missing (beside the arcade units) is the wanderswan color game and the nes japanese board game (which I have NEVER seen a cartridge of).

My new avatar is Felicia of Darkstalkers. Super Puzzle fighter II turbo if you want to be really technical

I used to have that problem untill I was about twelve. just need to place to pill on the back of your tongue and gulp (with provided liquid).

In the "time for another anime thread" in the movies folder a popup appears for sharmation.com. What gives?

End of Eva is supposed to be the *real* ending. Episode 25 and 26 is an alternate because the creator got pissed off about something and decided to fuck with the fanbase(not entirely sure on this, though). Spoiler (Highlight to Read): See, in 25 and 26 of the series, what you saw was what happened when Shinji accepted Instrumentality. In End of Eva, that's what happened when he didn't. As for the choking Asuka, he did that because of one part sexual repression(he does it twice with one being an "argument" they were having)and one part his ... odd way of seeing if she was actually real and alive considering what they had just gone through. When Asuka speaks while he's choking her, it confirms that they are indeed alive and this is not a dream Hope that helps ya out, Renegade. Anybody who has anything to add that I more than likely left out, please feel free to correct my old ass... heh. Thanks for the input APO, it makes a tad more sense Also... Spoiler (Highlight to Read): So can mankind return by making the same choices that Shinji made? And why does Shinji break down again right at the end after already knowing that he can be hurt again (which was discussed with Rei)? As for episode 25 & 26 if makes you wonder what significance it would have had if Shinji did accept Instrumentality since the same chain of events would probably occur anyway. And lastly are there any good websites that have analysis or theories about the series? On a totally unrelated manner I saw the first episode of the recently subbed Catain Tsubasa road to 2002. So far its just been a remake of the first Tsubasa episode during a flashback. Pretty good but not much to work with really.

Megaman soccer as an extra? That would be so awesome, it was really addictive (if somewhat crappy)

oops double post

Ok I bought and saw the end of eva DVD and good lord what the hell was that all about? Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Shinji trying to suffocate Asuka? So does that mean after about 20 minutes of talk Shinji still remains a coward? Also for some reason he stops (he must have to Asuka to be able to talk and move her eyes) then starts crying again? Still not getting it.

So is end of eva an alternative ending? A "what if" story?

...I just saw eps 25-26 of eva and...wow... Spoiler (Highlight to Read): While the ending was hugely uplifting I fail to see any relevence it has to any of the other eva episodes, maybe when I watch "end of eva" it will become slightly clearer...but for some reason I found myself with a big smile plastered across my face when everybody was clapping Shinji as he finds his self worth

If you have broadband you can download subbed episodes from torrents or p2p programs.

Yes it just happened to me now...weird.

I'm on episode 24 of Evangelion and I'm aghast. I dont know why but I'm hooked to the series.

Eh I liked it, and will buy it.

Not really about Rock, but no K' did surprise me. Still I thought SNK vs Capcom was great, I was so hyped for it I ignored its flaws.

The SF3 cast does indeed rule, with Ibuki being one of the best Street fighters ever. Also with greats like Alex, the Twins, Dudley and the king of cheap Gill
