For those that love to post in all caps: http://largeletters.ytmnd.com/ Olmec guides you through the Hidden Temple! http://olmecguide.ytmnd.com/ How do you feel, Mighty Megatron? (The longer I listen to this, the funnier the scream gets, somehow) http://howdoufeelmegatron.ytmnd.com/

^ Yup. There's definitely a reason why you can't turn on red in N.Y. The pedestrians are king.

"People hate Nirvana?" Yes, I'm the only Nirvana fan I know. The people I know think they're over rated, that they shouldn't be credited with starting a new rock movement; that the time was right for change and if not they, then someone else would have done it (and these people usually point to Pearl Jam). People also think that this band is only touted as one of the best of all time because Cobain blew his brains out. They think Nirvana wouldn't have that distinction if he had been alive, that Nirvana would have put out one or two more "mediocre" albums, and then broken up because of Grohl/Cobain tensions. People would then have a more "grounded" view of their talent and importance. To make matters worse, one friend constantly gloats about how Cobain killed himself on his birthday, making it "the best birthday present, ever".

Generally, they do. If you're a rich local, that just means you'll shell out for a cab every time. That's too expensive for us average joes. Mostly everyone has to rely on the subways, although MTA does nothing but piss everyone off on a daily basis.

Khandikebar wins so far.

^ That's fucking lucky. Every parent/guardian would have filed a suit if you had rear-ended that bus.

^ I used to do this almost every weekend and my middle-aged car turned into an old wheezing geezer pretty quick.

My girlfriend's cousin died from fussing with the radio for a split second. We really get too distracted with multi-tasking behind the wheel. We have to be more conscious of the task at hand on the road. It's just too sad.

Like at the Kerrang! Awards, System is once again the best band there.

What do you do when you get mad at a video game?
Skywarp! replied to Epic Reine's topic in Video Games
When I was little, playing Atari 2600, I used to yank out the cartridges and throw them across the room. Take that, Donkey Kong, Jr. Just don't be this guy. (Left side ad banner is not work safe) "I lagged out??!!" -
^ Then you would be good at building a strong credit history. All you need to do is buy one little thing every month and pay it off in full. If you plan on buying a house someday, it would be a good idea to build up a history.

Get a Mastercard or Visa, since any place you patronize is bound to take one or the other, if not both. Some foreign countries are only capable of charging to these two. It even helps in those situations to have both, since a given business might only accept one or the other. Discover cards are supposed to be great with rewards and customer service, but they don't get accepted everywhere.

Driving into Manhattan, and I think you'd probably be taking 278 West, could be a nightmare. The driving is seriously intense. You'd probably worry less about being on time, and about incurring large parking charges, if you just took the train. Who knows though, maybe someone else had better experiences.

I actually liked the first RE: Outbreak (never tried the second) because knowing that there are other real people trapped with you and being picked off one at a time (then having to fight their corpses) kind of hightens the survival horror experience. The only problem is that I never beat that damned last level because it's too huge to be played using their stupid time limit style (the virus meter), which goes against everything the methodical gameplay has demanded of us.

1000 Reasons why Late Night with Conan O'Brien

Well, that's kind of the obvious extention of these controllers. The games themselves are going to be radically different.

Also, with a Zelda or sword weilding game, lock-ons will be eliminated, making the game more challenging. The type of slash will be reflected on the screen (upper-right to lower-left, a high, horizontal decapatation swipe (not that decaps would be in a Nintendo game) straight thrusts into the abdomen) will redefine the boss fighting experience. Not just stabbing at the one place an opponent isn't defending with his shield, but doing so to get him to move his sheild there, and open up his midsection or head for a more damaging attack. At the same time, you could be blocking with your own shield in the "nunchaku" set up. There will be more "battle strategy", if Nintendo gets that deep and deeper with it.

The more I think about it, the more I like it. Everyone wants "more realism" in games. Well, if you remove most of the controller interface, you get a more realistic simulation. Like with Madden, the angle of tilt and the force of the arc's follow through will likely effect the distance of the pass. and the problem with RPGs and RTS games are navigating many unweildy menus just to do what you want to do. With this controller, you just point (and drag?) from the party member/squad you wish to use, and the opponent you wish to attack. Time between attacks is decreased, and battles become more realistic. This also opens up the genres to people who hate them becuase there's no level of personal control. With wrestling games, it will eliminate the need for a "shift focus" button. Free of that restraint, you might be able to run across the ring, launch a cross body block, and connect with more than one person. In a rumble, you could probably wildly throw punches and kicks in every direction, making a match with 4 people or more complete mayhem. Sega's president liked it. A sonic game could have potential. Also, when playing classic NES games, you just flip the controller horizontally for a classic NES pad. Anyone else know people that throw their whole bodies into turns (in racing games) and into jumps over pitfalls? They're usually non-gamers, so this controller is tapping into people's natural intuitions. Except now, they'll be rewarded for their instincts. I think this is going to be fun.

This happened to me in July. I was 3 months into the job when a CEO transition happened, and she chopped the budget anywhere she could. Ripper, you should consider relocating to Costa Rica, it is BEAUTIFUL, and it's becoming a popular spot for Americans to retire. (I know you won't, I just thought I'd add my 2 colones).

-OneSideZero, an awful nu-metal act. -A whole lineup of bullshit that came on before the 2 Skinnee J's (718) Farewell Extravaganza. I wish the J's told someone they were going to take the stage at midnight, it would have saved me a lot of pain. As for openers who were better than the main act, the Foo Fighters upstaged the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

There is now a second song added to the site: "Kicks & Bricks". If you ever wanted to hear Andrew singing over somewhat '80s hip-hop drum machines, here's your chance.
