Best Star Wars Video game?
What you mean JK3? Jedi Academy? Jedi Academy had some fun levels, good action and saber fights but I just didn't like it. Hit and miss levels, you didn't play as Kyle Katarn, and there was no story...It was just not as fun. Jedi Outcast however kept me busy in multiplayer for months, and it was one of the games I've played more of online than anything. I actually liked the story, or atleast it worked, and the action was really great. It was mostly solid though for the multi. Jedi Knight one was perhaps the most complete storywise of the bunch, plus it had extremely fun levels, lots of saber duels, it was really quite solid. Mysteries of the Sith wasn't bad, again you didn't play as Kyle but atleast you partially did. Levels were again, sort of hit and miss, but the story was acceptable. It was pretty ok (the last 3 levels owned). Dark Forces was what got me into gaming, first FPS I ever played, and I played it SO MUCH. I must have been through each level dozens, maybe hundreds of times as I had no other games at that time, or for 3 years after that for that matter. I could still tell you exactly where to go and what to do and how best to play it. It had possibly the funnest level of any game, ever, and Kyle Katarn was all bitter and snap-talky, and it was just pure fun before he got Force powers. This way they concentrated on the weapon combat a lot, and it had by far the best weapons of any game. I probably had the most fun with this one. So to recep: Jedi Outcast for multiplayer, Jedi Knight for story, and Dark Forces for all around glory. I also have KOTOR, which I haven't ever played. Maybe its good, who knows.

Revenge of the Sith
I just got back from it. I think it was loads better than Episode 1 and 2. Well, Episode 1 was just not good. It wasn't a horrible movie, but it just wasn't Star Wars. Jar-Jar Binks and his people were just unentertaining, and the whole pod racer thing was quite boring and annoying. Lots of it seemed to just try to entertain short-attention spanned people with lots of saber fights and explosions, and minimal drama. It just didn't have a Star Wars feel. Episode 2 was a step in the right direction, it wasn't as good as the older ones, but it was significanly better than Episode 1. Ep 1 and 2 also had some bad acting, and while 3 is better, it still had some script and acting problems (mostly in the first half-hour, after which it was good-ole Star Wars). Episode 3 however, returns to its Star Wars epic science-fiction roots, and is extremely well put together. The action was good, but that's not what made it good. The story was perfectly put together and interesting, which the previous two (especially Ep 1) failed to achieve. Everything...Just, I donno how I can describe it without spoiling anything...It was just...I'm very happy he ended the series on a high note. Not the highest of the 6, but definately worthy of the title and a solid watch. I think the most important thing in Star Wars is the creativity and the epic story. Lucas' genious really shows in the old movies, in that there is so much depth both of plot and charecters. The newer have less charecter developement and more saber fighting, but there still good (not great, cept Ep 3) and Ep 3 goes back to develope the charecter and the plot and thats why it was good. It returned to its roots, but still had lots of action and special effects. But the story and creativity (as well as solid acting, and the fact that they built their own equipment to make the special effect with, and many other components of the great movies [ie, musical score, originality] the movies are practically perfect in every way) is the most important thing, I think. The acting didn't suck in the originals. Harrison Ford was...IMO it was one of my favourite performaces or any actor in any movie, as was Hamills. They were actually feeling the charecters, and I thought they were VERY believable, the acting was amazing. Plus, Fisher is absolutely perfect for the role of Leia, with a bit of sophistication, a bit of sarcasm and also a lot of feeling put into the role. In 1 and 2 it seems to me like what it is. Acting. I really wasn't believing it, mostly for the first half hour (of 3). There was one point when Senator Palpatine was saved and he had comes back to Corusant and is talking to Mace Windu...Me and most of the people laughed out loud at the poor acting and script for a few awkward minutes...It was hilarious...In the first one, Padme really didn't seem like there was any feeling put into the role, more like she was just saying the words, plus I didn't like that kid (he's better suited for Jingle all the Way).

Revenge of the Sith
I was planning to go at 12:01am on Thursday but it didn't pay out. Plus I'd probably fall asleep and not enjoy it fully. I'll go on Friday or Saturday it looks like.

Movies that brought you to tears
I dunno, I'm not trying to act all tought or anything, but I just don't cry. Even during Schindler's List I didn't, I don't think I was even that close. I think I have some sort of dehydration problem, because I hardly sweat either, even during intense physical activity. I just get hotter and hotter and hotter and then faint. I suppose the closest I came was Cast Away where Wilson floated away...It was his only friend...That's the only one that I can think of that gave me a lump in throat...I was 10-11ish.

High-Calorie Foods
Another thing for weight gain: try eating lots of carbs at night. Carbs are the most difficult form of energy to burn off (fat being second, protein being the easiest to burn off). This means if your consuming something then going to sleep, you don't have any time to burn the energy off before bed and therefore it makes you gain weight.

Tennis Ball Color debate
Professional and high quality tennis balls are yellow. Less professional and less good quality tennis balls are green. This is just what I've noticed. Which are you asking for? I would say the correct colour is yellow.

High-Calorie Foods
Milkshakes from McDonalds. In my opinion they taste bad (I don't eat at McDonalds-everything tastes bad there to me), they make you feel bad, but you'll pack on weight extremely fast. It's one of the very worst things you can eat, and they are easily accessible, cause McDonalds is everywhere. 1150 Cal in a Large Chocolate milkshake.

What do u make ur web pages on
I actually made a webpage in Notepad, with some Flash animations and stuff. I only knew HTML (and only the basic of that), so it was really difficult to do, and it took me a very very long time, but it worked, and it didn't look that bad. I sorta had to learn as I went kinda thing.

Who's your favourite director?
Francis Ford Coppola in a brilliant artistic sort of way. Quentin Tarantino in a brilliant unique sort of way. Brian de Palma I really like his work. Steven Spielburg of course aswell. Frank Darabont has really good movies, but he doesn't do many. Ridley Scott is reall very good too. George Lucas is pretty legenday. I like Scorcese, but he's not one of my favourites. How2PK really likes him though.

top 5 cancelled cartoons according to me (again..)
If that counts, that is like the best cartoon ever. It was so cool. It changed to look, New Beast Wars or something, but I don't think they ever finished the original story. It was such a good story, amazing fights...Awesomeness.

What constitutes
Too bad no cop is going to inforce that. Or if they do, only a rare cop. So many people do it, it wouldn't even be worth their time to do it. Like enforcing the jaywalking rule.

top 5 cancelled cartoons according to me (again..)
Man, that show Clone High was particularly genious. Like when they are on a riot, and they break into a bookstore (or a library) and come running out going 'Ahhhh, BOOOKS!!!" and stealing all the books, then they break into a TV store and come out yelling 'Ahhh, BOOOKS!!' and come out stealing all the...books. Genious. And Ghandi saying 'Say wut!?' Man. Genious. Futurama too. The Shnu-Shnu episode is like SO FUNNY. And what can I say, Family Guy is Family Guy. Or is it?

The Best Movies of all time
http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=232078 I had to go all the way page three to find this. I did what Peter told me to do, and I told a mod, and then I came back and posted it in chat like 8 hours later and still I don't seem to be acknowledged by anyone. Whatever.

Weight Lifting
If it's stimulating you muscles head on, and not in a way that will actually be used, it won't make you be stronger at all. You need to excersise in a way that will actually be useful to your muscles. That's why many football players do bench press, to stimulate their muscles in the act of pushing.

Weight Lifting
It's like a belt that has a motor in it, that vibrates and stimulates your muscles. As far as I know, you will probably gain some muscle definition. However, I very highly doubt you will actually get bigger, or actually gain much (if any) strength from it. no its this little muscle thing that comes with 2 sticky pads that u put on ur skin where the muscle is and it shock you and ur muscle tightens up than goes back to norm than it does ti again Similar idea though.

What Is Your Most Favorite Video Game System?
I don't see why PC wouldn't count. He said "Video Game System", and while PC's aren't exclusively for games, they do play games (A lot of games) and they are a system with which you can operate games on. He didn't say console...

Debate: How did the cosmos get to the state it is in now?
I honestly don't see what the point of all these religeon-vs-science posts. It's not like anyone's ever going to change someone elses mind. It's just a back-and-forth fight of what each person thinks is the right way. You're never going to change anyones mind. People aren't going to denounce religeon because some dude on some forum says his religeon is wrong. Also, people aren't going to join a religeon because someone says it's the right one. It's completely pointless in my opinion. On a side note, whether people believe in a religeon or not, on average religeous people live happier lives (it's a hard fact). Religeons support charity work and are against stealing and other things, so religeous people are more happy. That's just a side note. So really, do you think you can change someones mind on here? I doubt it. So why bother?
