How can you not like Rocky?

haha, reminds me of Celebrity Jeopardy.

I was messing around the internet and saw this on Yahoo. http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/news/ap/2005101...2964406000.html I'm a big fan of the Rocky movies except for 5 which was only passable. I think this might be a good Rocky movie, if it indeed centers on a deep human drama about Rocky. What do you all think?

It's going to sale at $40, you cheapo <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Haha, yeah, I'm somewhat cheap, I admit it. But unless I'm incredibly hyped about a game like I was with K2, then I can usually wait a few months to a year or more to play a particular game.

I want to play this game too. Fighting against humongous creatures seems like a cool thing. But I'll wait till the price drops.

Yeah, let's attack a planet that's 70% water! Wait...what was our weakness again?

I know Koreans and Chinese tend not to share the bill. Instead of buying rounds, we Koreans argue endlessly about who'll pay the bill(Most people fight about WANTING to pay the bill except for the few cheapasses.) and then someone buys the entire night, then someone else pays next time and so forth. Since I've been in the U.S. I asked around as to bar/drinking etiquette before doing anything stupid and got the rules of buying rounds down. The rules tend to bend when there are women involved or among close friends. Those peeps who walked off after getting a free drink seem to be in bad form though.

Meta: You must be in expcellent physical shape. For me, as soon as the burn starts, all my attention goes there. I kind of revel in the pain and it does start to feel after a while...then it starts to hurt again.

I recommend using melee shields if you have them since Hanharr uses melee attacks. Activate a melee shield, get off a few shots, run away, re-activate shield as necessary, repeat.

I'm a pretty easy-going guy. I take the 'if you're not bothering me then I don't care' approach to most things in life. However there are some things that annoy me for absolutely no reason. Right now it's people who read things while working out. I'd be running on the treadmill or peddling on the bike, huffing and puffing, when someone comes on the machine next to me, opens up a book with tiny print and begins 'reading' while going at slow leisurely place. Now, I probably wouldn't be bothered if it was a magazine or a comic book or something with large print and/or pictures. But most of these reading materials look like textbook copies of some thesis on one subject or another. I can hardly concentrate on my own thoughts when I run/bike. If you can concentrate on that tiny print and comprehend what it's saying, then you aren't exercising hard enough. Sweat a little for God's sake! End of pointless rant on inane subject.

I'd like to see Dark Forces 2 remade too along with Dark Forces.

I hate being scared. I watched the original Japanese version of the The Grudge, titled Ju-on and couldn't sleep for days. Of course I watched it alone at night with the lights off in my then basement like room. Never saw the Grudge though, is it scary?

I remember playing the Sega Genesis version of Strider. It was awesome. I'd like to see a remake of Strider. I don't think it's happened yet.

I can't drink beer either. I can't drink alcohol period. I can ACT incredibly drunk though. It's a pretty useful skill to have.

That picture under his username. SCAAAARY~

I concur.

I wonder if there is a entire pantheon of Gods of which the flying spaghetti monster is one. Like the Raging Ravioli Monster...God of Hatred. Luscious Linguini Monster, Goddess of love and lust. The Fiery Fettucini Mosnter, God of the Underworld. The Pednatic Penne, God of knowledge and learning.

That's a pretty scary picture.

I like what I see but then again I always do. Does anyone know if we can have more than 2 henchmen this time? I like traveling with a large party. I hold conversations between the characters in my head. Is that sad or what?

Yes, I have what I call the 'honest' body type. What I eat and don't work off during the day just goes to my belly. Damn you people with fast metabolisms.

But is it Darque-twinkie-fat? Seems that no ones likes a fatty... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> God, I love twinkies

Wait...are they still developing this game?

Make it shoot out acid! and Fire!

Looks like I'll have to buy a Gamecube and a GBA and a GBA adaptor to play all those interesting titles. I'll definitely try those games you mentioned SP. I've seen Shadowheart in the used section of my local Gamestop. I can pick it up for an affordable price. The reason I play most games is for the underlying story and the characters. I guess that's why I'm drawn to JRPGs. But I can't seem to get past the random encounters and other aspects I mentioned before. Everytime the screen blurs and phases out to signal another enemy encounter, I get annoyed. Maybe another game atmosphere other than FF will change that. I hope. I saw a movie for a game called 'Digital Demon Saga 2' or Shin Megami Tensei(?) The artwork and animations were strangely appealing. I was thinking about givng that game a whirl.

I just wanted to hear everyone's opinions on JRPGs. I know this might be a sensitive subject, so let's try not to start a flame war. Now I'm not really familiar with JRPGs. I can count the number of JRPGs I've played on one hand. 3 that is. All Final Fantasy games. Six, Seven and Eight. I played X as well but I couldn't finish it. I considered myself a FF fan for quite awhile and not having a PS or PS2 until recently I couldn't play FF9 or 10 until recently. I was looking forward to it too considering the fond memories I have of the previous games. I tried my best but couldn't finish it. I found the entire gameplay mechanic pretty annoying after awhile. I didn't like being interrupted every few steps by monsters, I didn't like seeing the same attack animation over and over and over again. I didn't like the turned based combat system with my side and the enemy separated by an invisible line taking turns bashing each other. It felt artificial. I hated seeing the party's winning poses again and again. Ok I get it, we won. Can we skip this part? I thought to myself, "But wait, you really liked playing the other FF games. What gives?" I don't know. I guess my preferences have changed or something. I even tired reinstalling FF 7 and 8 and loaded up 6 on an emulator to see if there was something else to those games X lacked. Nope, I quickly got annoyed with those games too, well maybe except for six because the combat went much faster due to simpler graphics and animations. So since I seemed to be turned off the FF series, are there any other JRPGs that don't have enemies interrupting you when you walk around? I think that's the most annoying aspect for me at the moment. I'm not going to write off JRPGs since my experience with them is so limited. Plus I'm afraid ShadowPaladin might hunt me down. Do all JRPGs share a same basic template? Turned-based combat with a unique battle system and skill system for each game, fairly linear story, people with funky hairdos and those goddamn enemies interrupting you every 5 seconds while you try to get from point A to B? If you're into JRPGs, why so? Oh and recommend one with an exceptional story. I'll give it a whirl.
