They found the cause, arsenic in the water.

Halo 2 is not a DX10 game. It uses Windows Live functionality which is Vista only.

Considering Marvel co-created the original Transformers alongside Hasbro, I'm surprised Marvel doesn't do much with them. It's like they gave up their portion of the franchise after the original series.

Maybe this thread should be renamed to "terrible movies you've seen lately."

I hear that a lot. lol

Everytime a paycheck comes along I go out and buy 2 or 3 games. Usually to the effect off 1 new game and 2 old ones. And well, with work, I just don't have the time to go through them. Woe is me.

I vote that this man be banned. a bit drastic, no? They used to burn people for heresy.

Puzzle Quest is awesome. I went out and purchased Front Mission 4 and Pokemon Diamond today. Now I don't know what to play. Do I play Team Fortress 2? Do I play Persona 3? Do I play more Puzzle Quest? Life is hard.

I vote that this man be banned.

I just bought The Galaxy Railways series because I mistook it for some sort of Galaxy Express 999/Captain Harlock compilation. It's by the same guy and looks to be the same universe, so hopefully it's good. Though, I'm bummed because I was really looking forward to seeing Galaxy Express 999 again and finally seeing Captain Harlock.

I didn't hear anything good about Civil War. It sounded like a bunch of heroes fighting with nothing really going on up until Cap gets killed.

I never saw LoEG, but Street Fighter I did see and I have to disagree. But Street Fighter was also worse than Extinction, I totally forgot about Street Fighter.

Because when I checked yesterday there was only the "upcoming movies" thread on the page and I forgot there was a "you have seen lately" thread.

This new iteration in the Resident Evil follows in the second movie's steps by managing to be worse than the previous one. The second movie managed to be worse than the first, while I enjoyed the first, and this one manages to be worse than the second. The second movie had redeeming qualities in that the action scenes were relatively exciting, this one fails to even hit that mark. Resident Evil: Extinction does not know what kind of movie it wants to be. It doesn't know if it wants to be a B-grade zombie flick, a monster movie, an action movie, or some sort of post apocalyptic Mad Max type adventure. It's not that it tries to do all of these things. That would be giving it too much credit. It's just too stupid to even know what it's doing at all. At one point in a the film a large flock of birds start attacking the characters in a scene that may give you some feeling of nostalgia for Hitch****. This is quickly ruined when one character heroicly runs out firing dual pistols akimbo style at them. I think he wanted to marry Hitch**** to John Woo here but it only comes across that way if you consider the possibility that Hitch**** and Woo are brother and sister and this is their retarded offspring. I didn't know whether to be scared or excited, but I did know that I wanted to leave. The plot is held together by poorly placed and poorly paced scenes that feature not just one, but two, brooding heroines who complain that everyone just seems to die around them. The fact that one of these two heroines is Milla Jovovich is the only thing that stopped me from walking out, something I have not considered doing before aside from Dude, Where's My Car?. She's more beautiful in this movie than she has been since she was naked and couldn't speak english in The Fifth Element. Every time she showed up on screen it was enough to keep me staying. Mainly because it gave me nice source material to fantasize that I was making out with her, which made it well worth the price of admission. 5 stars for Milla "Om nom nom" Jovovich -3 stars for being an utterly horrible piece of cinema, second in ****tiness only to Mortal Kombat Annihilation 2 stars final score

Apparently. However, Cradle of Life still pulled in more money in the US than Apocalypse. Apocalypse's "success" comes from it having a significantly lower budget than Cradle. 110+mil vs 45 mil I will, however, be seeing Extinction today.

Tomb Raider was succesful. The first one is also the largest opening for a movie headlined by a woman, which would mean it earned more at opening than Resident Evil

Some might consider that a spoiler.

Yeah, it's the original. I'm more interested in seeing it use the DS touchscreen than being shiny. But I'm with you in being dissapointed that 5 did not come out in the States. What's your opinion of 4? I can get it cheap.

10 days until Front Mission DS. Not a sequel, but it's coming out.

I spent yesterday playing as a Pyro while singing "Hot Hot Hot" by Buster Poindexter into the microphone.

Pfft, unless people are actually related, those relationships don't exist.

I was under the impression that it was being made.

Good luck. It took me forever to find Episode 3. It had been out for over a year before I saw my first copy. I think my local stores didn't pick it up because of how poorly Episode 2 sold, they still had large quantities of it at that point.

Is it like Xenogears, where the control is taken away from the player in the second CD? Nowhere near as bad. Xenosaga just seems to speed up for the second (or was it third?) act. Xenogears ran out of money. Xenosaga was working on both 3 and 4 at the same time when they were told they weren't going to get to release 4.

I loved 3. Best of them. A lot of people seem to agree, especially in regards to the combat system. The art direction is perfect, it's a bit of a compromise between the first two and actually looks very close to the art style of Xenogears. The actors changed around again, but for the better as Kos-Mos goes back to the first voice actress. Some people feel it was rushed and I see where they're coming from. They had to cram what they were developing for 4 into 3. So, after a certain point it seems the plot starts moving fast with less detail.
