What is the worst game you ever bought?
Konung 2. Yes, they made a second one. I was tasked with its translation to French, from an English text translated from Russian. I still have nightmares. Of sorry. I never bought it...

And thus, another anniversary for a heinous and tragic event is created.
What does slavery and the US constitution have to do with a crazed South Korean immigrant killing 32 people? He wasn't a slave, no more than any of us are. The gun issue? Pff. Irrelevant. In Canada our gun laws are stricter(word?) than in the US and still, a few months ago a kid used his legally obtained weapons to shoot students in a poshy school. One died of her injuries in the hospital. Of course having firearms so easily obtainable in the US is an issue. But I can kill many people within a few minutes in downtown Montreal using my car and/or a baseball bat. I won't do it, ever, because I am a sane person, able to normally live within this society. This guy was insane. Period. I believe no individual should be allowed property of a firearm, except military and police. Hunters can rent them for their sport, there is no need to own a gun, rifle or any firearm. But it is unfair to blame gun laws, the NRA, the Government or whatever for the actions of a crazed individual who would've found a way to do the deed no matter what laws exist.

LOST
I'm guessing the jumper is know to Sayid. Arabic + military = Sayid acquaintance. And Penny sent her?

major let downs of the new trilogy

What is the worst game you ever bought?
A tie between Operation Flashpoint and Dungeon Lords. Not the worst games I've played, just the worst I bought. Even worse, I've recently had urges to reinstall Dungeon Lords again...

Movies You Have Seen Lately
The Last King of Scotland. Africa used to be one of my most desired places to visit. Beautiful countries, plenty of wildlife and thriving nature. After watching this film and Blood Diamond in less than a month, not to mention Hotel Rwanda, I changed my mind. All great, intense films with powerful messages. Forest Whitaker definitely derserves his oscar and James Tomnas Guy should've had at least a nomination. Really, really great performances and really great movie overall as well. 9/10

What are you playing now?
Guild Wars : Still can't say if I like it. Been playing for about 5 hours. I can't help but compare it to WoW but really, I find the graphics better but it lacks in animation quality/variety. No jumping hurts GW imo and some clipping issues as well. WoW is clearly superior in every way(except graphics) but my biggest gripe I have with GW, when compared to WoW, is that the interface and controls aren't as intuitive as Blizzard's juggernaut. As a MMORPG, I give GW a 8/10. Dreamfall : Hooked me right away. I installed this for my wife because she is bored to death on maternity leave(2 months left before the bigdealest day of our lives). So far, it's a 9/10.

Pathfinder I expect Finland and Norway, at least, to ban this film. It's like 300 except Norsemen = Persians and Spartans = Native North Americans. Jokes aside, decent action and great visuals but acting and dialog was just horrid. Except for Russell Means

LOST
Great episode! Some things: First, about the "box" mentioned in previous episodes, while watching this latest installment I couldn't get out of my mind the possibility that the flight, the crash and every LOSTaway is a product of that "box". This would make all the questions answered with one single solution to every puzzle. No? I think Juliette is doublecrossing Ben, not Jack. She wants to get off the island and maybe she now believes her chances are better with Jack and the gang. She knows Ben will never let anyone leave.

What are you playing now?
Medal of Honor : Vangard (PS2) Short, easy, same thing as all the other MoHs, even the music. 12-15 missions, 3 of which begin with 82nd Airborn actually jumping out of a plane. Not a bad game, well made, well produced, found one major bug in the very last 5 minutes of the very last mission when it fails to load a cutscene and freezes. Lame. Overall the best word to describe it is Ordinary. 7/10

Is this really that different than the Muhammad drawings?
Continued in link Anyways, in light of the Muhammad cartoons, I found this kinda funny Fanaticism is the new Stupid. I mean come on. Lighten up you tight a$$ Christians(not all of you, just the tight a$$ ones).

LOST
I think all the lostaways will move into the village. But that's pretty obvious. It'd be cool if by the end of the series, the Lostaways become new "Others". Like the last shot of the series is Sawyer looking up at the sky from the center of the village, watching another plane crash...

Favorite Fight: Perseus. WOW!

Almost finished with a first playthrough of God of War 2 on normal difficulty. Short, a bit easier than the first but absolutely 0rgasmic!

The Battlestar Galactica Thread
That is pretty good Sand. I thought the extra cut on her abdomen was to remove the growing foetus she conceived with Baltar in order to implant it in Athena, making us believe that Hera is Helo and Sharon's baby when in fact it's Baltar's and Starbuck's.

Starbuck could be Adama's illegitimate daugther. The daughter of Zeus, the Cylon God, #13, is pretty special.

God of War II
My wife bought me the game yesterday. Who needs a nextgen console with this game??? I mean WOW! I LOVE the way they make Kratos lose his powers. Very smart. 20/10!!!!

Metal Heart - Replicants Rampage
I'm also interested as it's a PC RPG and the ones I haven't played, MMOs aside, are rare and I have a big craving. I'd also like an objective review.

The Battlestar Galactica Thread
Mine is on Roslin(although Felix is my second choice). If it wasn't for the cancer everyone would agree with me that's why I think it's a trick. She could be "built" with the cancer to avoid suspicion.

God of War II All there is to say is and that my wife bought it for me deserves another
