Dragon Warrior 7 has shitty graphics for PS1 standards and was around 100 hours with good replay value.
-
Normal ones like Shadowgate, Uninvited, Deja Vu.
-
Eternal Idol is a great album and so is Born Again for that matter.
-
Did you even notice the link I posted which had the rom?

http://www.chinagba.com/down/ Kingdom hearts is right there, download speeds are very slow though.

Yet it's the very business that is providing the information to Dave. Weather it be wrestlers themselves, agents, Good ol' JR or even Vince himself. Information Dave gets comes directly from the people in the business. Don't hate the messenger when the business is the one providing the information.

This is the first paragraph from Meltzers site when you click on "newsletter". Nowhere does he say he is "objective". He clearly states that he reports the news as well as his thoughts about the news.

Guys, the WWE isn't losing 60% of their profits... Here is WWE financial statistics as reported my Meltzer in an old observer: 1994-95 $87,352,000 $-4,431,000 1995-96 $85,815,000 $3,319,000 1996-97 $81,863,000 $-6,505,000 1997-98 $126,231,000 $8,466,000 1998-99 $251,474,000 $56,030,000 1999-00 $373,100,000 $68,937,000 2000-01 $456,043,000 $15,987,000* 2001-02 $409,622,000 $42,233,000** 2002-03 $374,264,000 $-19,455,000*** 2003-04 $374,909,000 $48,192,000 * Wrestling profit was $84,981,000, but WWE's share of 50% of the XFL losses was $68,994,000 ** Wrestling profit was $42,498,000; also figured in was a tax break of $4,638,000 for shutting down the XFL; offset by $4,903,000 in losses for the year on The World *** Wrestling profit was $16,362,000; offset by loses of $35,557,000 through operations and closing of The World Looking at those stats you can see that the WWE is still doing very well when it comes to revenue and profit. When you compare the WWE now to the mid 90's, this is like an attitude era...

Do because you disagree with two peoples viewpoints their vote gets discredited. Yes, because you found out two people who aren't casual fans, even if you would like to believe they are, have ballots. You missed the boat big time. Casual fans do not vote for this, the voting is done by people within the industry, not your every day bob and joe. That doesn't really matter because most of the guys from that era are already in the hall. Sell me on Miller. Sellouts, accomplishments, title reigns, workrate, etc.
-
And how do you know this? Name everyone who votes? So you are saying that if I wrote a newsletter and presented facts and figures, that if you voted for my hall of fame, that your vote wouldn't be credible because I influence you? You have a mind of your own don't you? I think so. Which is why I think its mularkey to insinuate that most readers knowledge about wrestling has come from his work. The fact of the matter is that the voters are wrestlers in the business themselves, and journalists that have a vast knowledge of the business. Casual fans and readers DO NOT vote on this. This is a vote done by credible people within the business. So the idea that people only vote based on Meltzers opinions aren't true. *EDIT* Im actually reading my copy of the observer right now and Dave says that the majority of Angles supporters came from active wrestlers and retired legends. Triple H did better on current wrestlers but didn't have the support of retired legends which is why he came just shy most likely.
-
I don't know why some of you guys are getting all pissy over Angle being included. It isn't like Angle was a shoe in. The man needed 105 votes to get in and guess how many he got? 105. The man JUST BARELY got in, it's not like he got 127 votes and was at the top of the ballot. Hunter only got 2 votes less then Angle and should get in next year. I don't know why you guys are all "fuck dave this, fuck meltzer that". Don't blame him and its foolish to say that he influences the hall when he doesnt. He gives facts and figures and the people on the ballots are not tools that can't think for themselves when voting.

Visual boy advanced is the best emulator. Try playing around with some of your settings and options. The next best is boycott advance.
-
This is the main problem I think that people are debating with you. Because of his inconsistancy, he is viewed as a second rate goalie and not a proven number 1 that can take his team all the way.
-
Thats wrong, they do a bit of both. If Brodeur played for an offensive minded team his GAA and Save Percentage would be slightly higher. Cloutier plays on a good team but has average goalie stats. Compare Cloutiers stats with Toronto's Ed Belfour. Both are offensive minded teams but Eddie beats Cloutier on almost ever catagory including the non catagorized "able to make the big save when it counts" stat. That stat is the most important. Cloutier has subpar stats, and the inablity to be a "money" goalie and make the big save to keep his team in the game.

Cool, I got 1685 and currently have the 20th best score of the day.

Bobby Holik has never justified earning 9 million a season. Jagr and all those other high priced NHLers are usually at least justified because of their statistics and superstar like play. Holik is nothing but an above average player with an insane contract.

I agree with all you Lufia 2 fanboys, that game is a very good and underrated game. Lufia 1, while pretty basic, was also a very good game. Here are some of my favourite old school system rpgs: NES: Chaos World - Yes the best game for the nes, download the rom and patch and play it. this game was years ahead of its time. Dragon Warrior 4 - Excellent game with a cool chapters scenerio Chronicles of the Radia War - Another Jap only game, thank god it was translated. Dragon Warrior 3 - One of the best non linear games for its time Final Fantasy 3 - The real FF3. Fire Emblem Gaiden - Strategy RPG at it's finist, another game that had to be translated (crappily I might add) to be enjoyed in english. Sweet Home - Capcoms first true survival horror game, you think a silly 8 bit nes game can't freak you out? Play this game in the dark at nightt. Didn't come to North America because the content was too disturbing (baby burning in fire). Excellent game. SNES: Dragon Warrior 6 - Originally in Jap, this is the best dragon warrior ever, and my personal favourite RPG ever. Dragon Warrior 5 - Best Dragon Warrior story ever and all round solid game Final Fantasy 5 - Lots of people dislike this one, I think it is the best FF Lufia 2 - Best puzzles out of any RPG and excellent story Tales of Phantasia - Best SNES graphics and very compelling story with a great battle system GAME BOY/COLOR/ADVANCE: Golden Sun: The lost age - I have yet to play a better game boy rpg Tactics Ogre - the knight of lodis - Excellent strategy RPG. Long quality game too for a handheld. Golden Sun - Like its sequel, one excellent game. I hope they make more Golden Sun games as the first two are excellent. Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga - Kind of an SMRPG sequel. Very fun but not as good as SMRPG GENESIS: Phantasy Star 4 - I hate the PS series but damn this game was fun LandStalker - Very fun zelda like game with hard puzzles. Not to trash the sega system but the SNES owned them in regards to RPGs, this game could compete with any SNES RPG. Phantasy Star 3 - I hate PS1 and 2, I know lots of people hate this one but I rather enjoyed it. The generation system was rather neat. Shining Force 2 - Rather simple strategy RPG but very fun. Also, if anyone has a Sega CD or emulator, find Dark Wizard if you like strategy RPGs. This game is years ahead of its time and very underrated.

They aren't getting that many buys, they are getting an average of 6000 - 8000 buys. If they were getting 20 000 buys they would be jumping for joy since they would have a chance at breaking even.

I don't know why all you guys are trolling her so much, she didn't do anything wrong. All of you who whine and say that she should of asked politely..thats bullshit. Perhaps some of you are ignorant and don't know or understand that bandwidth costs money. If you found someone taking 20 dollars out of your wallet every week would you "ask them politely" to stop doing it? Of course not, you would be mad and demand it to stop. Hell, she even gave you guys a logical alternative, host the pics on one of the many FREE image hosting providers. All she is doing is protecting the site she deals with, all of you would be doing the exact same thing if the roles were reversed. Immature trolling can be fun, but its fun when its to someone who deserves it, like idiot spammers and the like, this webmaster does not deserve it though. -
My Dying Bride's first album was straight death metal lyrically if I do recall. I am glad they changed their style as I hate death metal. Thumbtack, if you are looking for a different style of power metal, try Nightwish.
-
I think Barlow is one of the 5 best metal singers ever. Listen to "A Question of Heaven" and maybe you guys will change your minds on his voice and style.
-
Yes. Generally I find the cover story worth the price alone.
-
Well guys, it was a work as Rave appeared at tonights show.
-
Yes you can pay with a creditcard.
