Sorry, I just find doing something like signing a contract to retire on a certain team an absolute joke. No offense to Rice, but what does it matter? There is no reason for it.
-
Oh look, Jerry Rice un-retires to re-retire as a 49er... ...seriously, does that even make any fucking sense at all!?

Okay... What the fuck part of that mission requires "skill of avoiding"? Bullshit. You just pray to fucking god no one sees you and do it all on luck. I've died like 20 damn times. Dear God, what possessed someone to come up with that shit? I don't even get potions~! Ugh!!! So pissed off right now. -

Its not bad. Most of the problems are ironed out, and hey. You can use potions while being down. However, I just ran into the most annoyingest thing ever. Read spoilers to understand: I still haven't experienced any plot holes yet. Which surprises me, cause I'm still waiting for it. Dirge actually isn't a bad game. Its a decent game overall. However, I'm wishing I went on a higher difficulty cause I ain't having an easy time on normal, and frankly I think Hard would've butchered me (and I would've liked that). I'm gonna try to figure out some way to avoid dying, so I can continue on. Oh, and it autosaves your game. Just so you know. -

Although I'm at work, I can say Dirge of Cerebus isn't a bad game. The difficulty only comes from getting used to having to use the right analog being your aiming camera. Its not terrible, as long as you crank it up to the fulliest. And frankly I haven't seen a plot hole yet, though I'm expecting some. Although finding out has been a nice twist that I wasn't expecting, but I should've. The battling is straight forward blasting, so it is repetive, but meh. I haven't been disappointed enough to say the money was a waste. Although, the battle against was not easy. Then again, because of having to get used to the camera and a small room, it makes it feel too crowded. Music wise, it works. Because its a shooter, I wasn't expecting many tracks and a few do stand out, but not many. Controls are ok, and work once you get used to them, but you definitely need to crank the camera speed and targeting onto absolute fast (as well as go automatic targetting). Or at least I need to. -
Wonder why he joined the Pats. I mean, why retire and then come back? Why do people say they are gonna retire and don't? Its getting to the point where I wish leagues would go "ok, once you said you retire, you are done."

I'd go on record as saying its the best VA of any game out there. Just wish there was a bit more success for it. I disagree. Maybe the best original writing, yeah. However, for voice acting I would argue Kingdom Hearts 2, provided we're not counting Mena Suvari's performance. KH2 needed more cutscenes voiced by Christopher Lee. I'm counting all VAs, and yes, Suvari's performance made me not like KH2 better than DQ8. -
My memory card got corrupted so I lost my two dynasties. Damn thing. Been fine ever since I started my new dynasty. Speaking of which I'm going to be taking my #17 (I think) 7-1 Montana Grizzles (best team to take from 1-AA) up against #1 Auburn 9-0 here. My team's pretty decent, and I created 4 players (3 have ended up as backups, how funny is that?). I would be totally ok with this if I didn't lose two of my good defensive players. I lose my MLB Tusicioppio (something like that) who could make sure the TEs were held in check, now they ain't. And then my OLB Petterson had 16 sacks and was the biggest part of my blitzs. Now I can't blitz and I can't really stop the TEs. I'm not liking my upcoming game. I'm just hoping I win.

Meh, as long as its good enough for me, I'll keep it. I don't have high standards on a game I'll keep. I've only traded in a few games (sans college, I was piss fucking poor broke) and I usually never regret a purchase. I doubt Dirge will be one I absolutely regret. I'd go on record as saying its the best VA of any game out there. Just wish there was a bit more success for it. -
Nothing that will be worth trading him for though. This wait has been far far too long, he will be on Mellon Arena ice opening night, and I can't wait. Crosby/Malkin down the middle... While they might've waited forever, if you the right deal comes along, Malkin would be like any other player and be gone. But you are right, the right deal won't come along and he'll be there. And I really wonder how well Crosby and Malkin will do, especially paired up. Hm... I thought it was 60ish points. But isn't this same stat line for the league with only single assists? Just curious.

Nah, I'm gonna need my money here soon. The Wii is coming, an dI'm so buying one. ;; Although, I do pay $400 rent now, so I can't spend AS much... But still, I just blew it on a game I'll probably play once and never touch again. -

I hafta be a sucker. While I went to EB to finish paying off my Disgaea 2 prepurchase, I did the unthinkable. ...I caved and bought Dirge of Cerebus while I was at it. I have too much cash and not enough responsibilities for this bi-weekly paycheck I get. >_< Oh well, it'll probably at least be worth it. I hope. -
No they don't. Which is why I said, if there was someone else (meaning either of those two), I would consider the trade as legit. Right now, its hot watery steam. And you are right. There's no way Malkin's leaving town, but I do believe the Penguins are probably gonna get some serious offers heading their way.
-
Considering Malkins in the NHL more or less, I can guarentee that I wouldn't doubt the Penguins considering trade offers of that insanity. If the trade didn't have Aebischer and it was someone else, I would consider it better than hot watery steam. Although at this time, its hot watery steam. I'd laugh though if he goes from being a Penguin to any other team after all that he's gone through just to be a Penguin. Would take this surreal story to a whole 'nother level.
-
Kessels will make the team easily. The Bruins aren't that strong right now and frankly even if he wasn't that great, the Bruins won't send him down this season. Its not like there are people can replace him. And the biggest reason why a lot "big" names haven't found homes is because of the salary cap. A lot of them are gonna hafta lower their prices to get hired because many teams can't afford to dish out a 3-4 million contract to them (that some of them will claim to deserve). I think most of them will be signed to less than what they are worth on an unrestricted salary market. I think you'll see someone like J.P. Dumont sign probably for way less than his arbitration offer. I also think that this will impact teams in having cores guys signed multi-years and then a few players floating in and out around the team every year.
-
Duckett will definitely be an upgrade. Although considering how quick the Jets went out to find another RB, Martin is likely done.
-
No. I think part of the deal for games is Salary Cap always hasta be there. Personally I like it there. Personally, I'm just hoping that my NCAA players get rated better. I hate having a guy who has like 99 overall become a shitty player because he's being drafted to Madden. Just drop the damn awareness and leave the rest of his ratings alone. Please. I don't want my star players in NCAA to lose a shitload of ratings. I'm thinking I'll make either a Falcons dynasty or whoever sucks the most dynasty. And then try drafting my players.

Damn, I didn't see this post. ;; Wow, I feel stupid now. Chobits is probably one of the better AI romance stories I've had the joy of watching. And considering it was done by CLAMP (or the manga at least), who did Cardcaptors (also Tsubasa and xxxHOLiC), the fluffiness is just apart of the groups style. As for the other two, I can see similarities, but that's all they are. If by Gatz, you are refering to Gantz, its well, alright. Its one of those "love/hate ones". Either you'll like it, or you won't. I recommended it to HarleyQuinn and he liked it apparently. But he's more into the whole "violence is awesome" kind of category. Been so long since I've seen it, I don't even remember what it was about. If you like the fantasy nature, I recommend picking up (fansub, or when it finally is released Stateside, your choice), The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. Sure, its comedy based near the beginning of the series, but it gets pretty slanted towards full out series near the end (still has funnies) and it is quite enjoyable. There are at least 3 things I'm warning you of: 1) The episodes are not in proper order (like 12 I think is the only one that IS 12). So please, if you watch episode 1 first-and you should watch them in the exact order for full maximum greatness-be sure to go "wtf?" and enjoy the ride. After you get farther along, you'll understand what episode one is, and you'll enjoy your "wtf" better. Then again, Haruhi is basically a wtf series. 2) Don't get down on Haruhi for the way she is. There is a perfect explanation as to why she is the way she is (besides her character is that of tsundere) so if she is annoying, let it slide. It'll all make sense the further you progress. 3) Episode 9 is the best "filler" episode ever. And its not even filler! ... I can't properly explain because you'll need to watch it. So there you have it. The 3 warnings. I'm also suggesting this, because if there IS a second season, it ain't gonna be full of funnies. Or at least so I've heard from someone who's read the novels that the anime is based on. As for serious series, although I haven't watched the following I'd recommend them: Blood+, Hellsing, and Trigun (ok I've watched this one at least). atomsk covered the base for those psychological ones.

Its all about Vincent, don't worry. Yuffie is there for plotline, and I'm suspecting to just further antogonize fans who want YuffiexVincent. -

Its actually a hybrid shooter/RPG. Yet doesn't excel at either. There are major plot incosistenies, but you'll usually find those when playing a FFVII game. Oh, and Yuffie apparently plays a huge ass part in the game. So all those who were in favor of YuffiexVincent rejoice. -
Malk is better than Oveckhin defensively. As almost everyone in the world wants this guy because he isn't a liability in his own end. Also he got 60ish points in a league that uses only single assists (thus 60=120ish in that league), so he's pretty good offensively.
-
Yes, Malkin does have Canadian Visa. Most are speculating that if he hasn't made his way to the Penguins yet, he's currently hiding out in Toronto, Canada.
-
If I remember correctly, if you just beat Proud mode, you aren't supposed to need to get Jimmy's logs and stuff. Or at least I think so. I'll need to go look at my special uber guide again.

CV, most of those cutscenes apparently come at the beginning of the game from all reviews, so you may be right on that mark. -
That's probably what's going to happen is that it'll be after Kanon. I'm thinking. Means half a year without it though, as Kanon's supposed to go quite long and do the whole storylines thoroughly. Can't wait to typeset Kanon. ...uh... Ignore that. I don't know about Funi, I have't bought anything done by Funi in a long time, but I really don't like what I've seen before from them. I'd prefer ADV if they didn't take eons to release stuff. Yeah, I know what you mean concerning Haruhi though. I'm hoping that whoever does Haruhi doesn't kill it. Cause its a huge money maker, I'm quite sure. it appeals to everyone. As long as you give it a chance. BTW, I hate how they change the names of things when bringing them over to the States. The manga of Karin is known as Chibi Vampire. And frankly while she is a chibi, why change it from Karin? Seems silly.
