My brother's been playing the Galaxy Edition for over a week - his pre-order arrived nearly a week before release.

Also if I remember the DVD sold like hotcakes, which is as good a reason as any to make sequels.

Yeah, it's not bad. Not bad at all. It's like a combination of the good stuff from their career. After the abomination that was St. Anger I expected poop, but I was pleasantly surprised. Still, it's no Master of Puppets or even Black Album.

First do no harm?

I'm using a wooden board attached to the wall as a desk.

Interaction with fun characters, a story told in a way that compells me to play further. Party-based games prove or fail with me based on how fun their NPC party members are.

Gremlins 2 makes me laugh so hard my groin starts leaking. I saw The Bucket List. Kopi Luwak!

Deadpool.

Really?! I never found the game scary when I played through it. I'm not good with darker shooters. In fact, now that I think about I did the same thing with F.E.A.R. and even Bioshock. I think it's because of a certain Pinky Demon that scared the living bejeezus out of me when I was a kid, it was hiding behind a secret door in a wall.

I just finished The Dunwich Horror by H.P. Lovecraft. It's weird, every time I read a Lovecraft story I'm not affected while reading, but I'm basically nervous for the next three days.

Well, our education system is different, so I'm just going to describe the basic problem without going into details. We have different levels of high school, different levels of college. Basically some **** teachers in elementary school decide where you go, and you're stuck with it. Right now I'm in a medium level of college, but I came from a high level of high school. There are people in my class who came from a low level high school, and whereas I've already had most of the math, physics and political economics that we're getting here, they haven't. And often things that took me two years to understand in high school are getting pressed into one semester of college. The people who haven't had it before basically don't stand a chance, especially if they have trouble with these things to begin with. And don't even get me started on the plain idiocy of higher level math and the like being mandatory on this level of college, even in an animation school.

Oh yeah, seriously. They had TV commercials for a game that was like half-finished upon release.

Jade Empire (Get bored almost immediately after I leave the tutorial town.) Neverwinter Nights 2 (I don't like the City of Neverwinter. I can never keep interest once I reach it.) Doom 3 (Eh... after about two hours of playing I found myself huddled in a corner hoping no more monsters came. >_>) StarCraft: Brood War (Never managed to beat the last map.) Dungeon Keeper: The Deeper Dungeons (Holy CRAP this makes it hard.) Heart of Darkness (Also holy CRAP this game is hard.) Diablo 2 (Got bored around Act II.) Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin (Also, this game is just hard.) Final Fantasy VII (Lost interest once I realized Cloud was the biggest loser ever. When you start rooting for low level enemies to kill your character, you know something's gone wrong.) The Legend of Zelda (The original NES version. It gives you no clear goals, I never know what to do.) Low G Man (Probably the hardest NES game I've ever played.) Little Samson (Never beat this game's end boss.)

I don't know about the UK, but here in Holland, your grades don't mean jack. High schools in Holland do not seem to value teaching important skills, and neither do colleges. (If it weren't for my one-and-a-half-year upcoming internships where I can actually learn something, I would have probably dropped out of college this year). And I constantly hear people who say that whatever they told them in school, the real deal never has anything to do with it, and occassionally everything is exactly the opposite. "They obviously don't really get the chance to prove themselves." This is true, but I don't think you're using the same reasoning as I am. The grading system is inherently flawed. I constantly receive A's for doing absolutely nothing other than being previously familiar with the subject matter, whereas people who bust their asses and actually learn stuff will still get D's. Getting an A doesn't prove anything, and sometimes getting a D proves everything. Somebody really needs to find a better way of schooling than what we have. Countries who pride themselves on their great school systems are deluding themselves - the current way schools are handled gives you a bunch of ninnies with no skillsets whatsoever. As far as I'm concerned, somebody whose proud of getting an A is just dumb.

No tribals please.

Great, so they're taking a series that pretty much makes its living on character writing and dramatic scenes, and they're changing the platform to a type that can only give you story developments through backstory?

Treasure Island. I saw Muppet Treasure Island years ago, I figured Blind Pew was such a ridiculous character the guys from the Muppets must have came up with him. Turns out they didn't.

I saw The Dark Knight. Great, yet somehow I'm disappointed. I expected something with less loose ends.

This reminds me of an article I once read which proposed that Fight Club was a sequel to Calvin and Hobbes.

*Still in jail. I don't read so good, so Tim Robbins is helping me get my high school equivalent. *

*Still in jail, made someone my... "female dog".*

*Due to my excessive Zombie Paranoia, I am now in Jail after deliberately breaking a shop window with a brick, hoping the bars will keep me safe. Feeling safer, I return to my annoying self, rattling my metal prison cup on the bars* "Guards! I need a refill!"

Agreed. And w/o blaster rifles, where does that leave Candalore (♥ that! ) and HK-47? Don't tell me you have anyone but pre-Jedi Atton (and occasionally Mical) dual-wielding blaster pistols? >_ "Candalore" is hugely effective with some of the more damage dealing swords (or axes) in the game. He cuts a bloody swath through the Sith.

Are some of you guys actually criticizing 10'000 BC as if you tried to take it seriously? I dig it, but I will like anything with creature attacks in it.

I wanted to hear the song again, so I did it again, but the chandelier missed!
