Crappiest NON-COMPUTER Game you've ever played?
I originally meant the directly-based-off-the-movie ones, for like Gamecube, PS2 and Xbox (I think). Pretty old. But I guess I also meant BFME (Those are fun, no doubt), and hopefully/probably Lord of the Rings: Conquest (Which is what you're talking about)

Crappiest NON-COMPUTER Game you've ever played?
The Lord of the Rings ones were okay (Definitely not great, but they pass). Maybe because they were based on LotR, and that's basically all you need in order to pass in my book. Worst? Wii...Sports? It was fun for a day. :|

Video Games & Consoles Index - Find Specific Threads
That's a bit dead. Though I still play...Yesterday's update was nice, from what I could tell (I tried getting on but all the servers were messed up...And then I had to sleep), I was about to complain about how OMA earns so much more money than anything else. (And since snipers fail and OMA, and sniper rifles cost the most... -.- ) Now, let's get back all those pages so people will look at this. :

Psychology
Hah, I learned that from Monk. And now I do it myself. For a long time, I was a terrible liar, but now...I can kind of clear my face of all emotion pretty easily. I have no idea how, I have no idea why...Maybe because I'm so impassive and apathetic. :? My sister started this year taking basic Psych, she hated it. She tried getting into AP Psych, the class was full. I can never remember if my mom was a psychiatrist or psychologist, I think psychologist. So it kind of runs in the family. But I'm the odd one out, I will never, ever consider going into the medical field. Just can't stand it.

Whats the nastiest thing you've done to someone?
At that point, I thought you were going to say he stuck it up your [wagon]. Which I attempted to do to my friend. Once. :uhh:

Your Environment...
My neighborhood is a bunch of old people about to die, and some really young people who just got married. Hmmf. There's like 1 other kid (Aside from my sister) here. My school is really cliquey, but some people do mingle. And there's me, in the corner, just watching and finding out everything I can. (Oh, how sketchy) So I know of everyone in my grade, and quite a few upper classmen as well. That's not to say I talk with them frequently though. My youth group (At church) is a completely different story, though obviously, it's a much smaller group. Still, everyone knows and loves everyone. ;)

The Line Rider Challenge
You're not alone. I'm simply not creative at all. I made a few simple tracks, and all I thought was "Okay...Now what?" I'm sure you can be extremely complex stuff, and I may try one someday. However, I enjoy watching those complicated tracks. Looking forward to what some people submit.

God Dammit Cancer
My great-uncle died of cancer about a month ago. Pancreatic cancer, I'm pretty sure. As far as I know, no one else in my family has been diagnosed with cancer. However, a classmate of mine was diagnosed with it a few years ago. Still alive and kicking though, I'm pretty sure he's fine now. Haven't really talked to him in a while. Also, a friend's mom died of cancer two years ago. :| Cancer, like basically all sicknesses, flat out sucks. The thing about cancer though is that it usually doesn't kill quickly. It keeps you alive for months, sometimes years, in pain and misery, until you're barely hanging by a thread...It's just as bad seeing a nearly-dead person as it is seeing a dead person. :| Hope your uncle gets better.

Runners
Meh, I'm kind of being pressured into running competitively. Indirectly. Or something. I want to do some sport during high school and running and tennis are the only two I'm decent at. Whichever sport I end up doing, I'll most likely sit out this year, to train or something. The thing is, school hit me like a brick wall, and after a month I'm still adjusting. I've run a few times since the end of vacation, but I'm not getting anywhere. At least I can still run a 7:30 mile...I think. And just wondering, is that any good? I'm a 14 year old guy, [very] underweight, if that matters. I tried looking online, but everyone there acts like everyone should be Usain Bolt, and the answers are always something like "dat sux, 5 mins and less is guddddd." A friend of mine who does XC says he can do a 7 minute mile, so I'm under the impression that it's okay. Another thing is that I can't sprint for my life (Eh, fine, if I was being chased by a guy with a gun I probably could run fast enough...But what are you going to do, instead of having the guy fire the starting pistol, have him point it at me?), and I can't really do long distance either. I can only do something in the middle, like a mile. #-o

The ESRB
Nah, for the most part, I'm fine with it. Never been a fan of extremely violent games, especially shooters...And I doubt my parents even know what M stands for. Other than the big ones (AO, possibly M...And in terms of movies, R), ratings should be more of a guideline, a suggestion, rather than an official rule. I mean, some games are rated way too strictly, but you really don't want 5 year-old Johnny, who's loved by his mom (And thus would be able to get any game he wants...As long as the rating is low enough) playing CoD or Halo or something online with you, do you? Little kids annoy me enough, I don't need another reason.

Smash Club.
I said a while ago that my friend and I beat Boss Battles (On Easy) in about a minute. We did double Charizards, I think I might have said that. Anyway, I use Charizard for boss battles...The only part I have trouble with is Tabuu, mainly RRoD. I can nearly always get to Tabuu...Then RRoD, oh, goodbye.

911
Last year, we got our first pulled fire alarm in a long while. Of course, at my new school, fire alarms happen weekly... Anyway, what happened was that my science teacher was predicting the fire drill. There were a few days left in May, and we hadn't had our monthly fire drill yet, so my teacher said it was going to be either Thursday or Friday. Thursday goes by...No fire drill. Everyone in my class now knows it's going to be on Friday, if there is one at all. So some kid decides to pull the alarm on Friday, seeing as how it could pass as a fire drill. His flaw? He pulled it during lunch. There's never a fire drill during lunch, fact. I don't know if he was ever caught, I have no idea who it was. Anyway, I've actually never called 911, at least I don't think so. In Taiwan, I think it's 119, never called that either...My parents kept the phone out of reach, I'm pretty sure. And I live in a really safe city, and never seen something that required immediate medical attention. And no fires.

Yours truly. Honestly, TIF is not your homework help center, and you could simply type those three words (Mayan corn god) into Google and get the answer.

Your Greatest Fears?
Weren't you that huge Nintendo fanboy who insisted on insulting Microsoft (And Sony)? :? i own all the game consoles so im pretty objective Of course you aren't biased... Yeah...And for me, it's not just noises. Basically, if I can't figure something out, it annoys me. Not really a fear though, more of an annoyance I guess.

the playstation 4, super wii and xbox 720
Not even 2 years...and not even 3 since 360. But announcements of new systems have in the past come ~3-5 years after the previous cycle. So depending on Microsoft's strategy (of which no one could say for sure), we might be seeing a new announcement in the next 1-2 years (as a minimum, but still). Though if I were them, I would probably hold off: that would put a huge dent in their 360 sales, as this generation seems to be running its course slower than last ones ("next-gen" is still regularly used to describe 360, PS3 and Wii). My math is terrible. :lol: Well, my point still stands. (I'm not arguing with you, if it seems that way...) Microsoft seems like it's going to go down this casual gamer lane, the same way Nintendo did. If they do, I think they'll do a better job, but probably still not a very good job. Yay PC gamers! :

the playstation 4, super wii and xbox 720
When Blu-ray takes over, the PS3 will leap out of last place like a tiger leaping on his prey. [/badanalogy] We're still far off from the next (Eighth?) generation. There were 5 years and 3 days (I think) between the releases of the Gamecube and Wii. It hasn't even been three years since the Wii and PS3 came out.

Good games for the Wii?
You can also get some (used) Gamecube games, there are a lot more good Gamecube games than good Wii games. Pikmin 1 and 2, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance (Radiant Dawn, the Wii version, is the sequel), and the Legend of Zeldas are probably good choices. I agree with N0M, don't bother with GH3, GH4 is coming out in a few months. Mario Kart Wii and Twilight Princess should be the two most obvious, I've heard Okami is pretty good too...

Paper planes
Paper airplanes are the only form of art I can succeed at. Though I remember when I was little, I cried because I couldn't make some complicated plane I saw in a book. First grade, Chinese school...Our teacher would bring in stacks of origami paper and we would storm them and create armies. Of course, we didn't really know they were armies...But we tried to get them stuck on top of a hanging light, and when I did after a ton of tries, I was so happy. \

That kid that went to your school.
Oh wow...How did I miss the most obvious kid in my last post? And now that I'm in a different school, I've got a person or two I'd like to add. Issac. Or Isaac. I have no idea. He is by far the most annoying kid in my grade, if we voted, it would be unanimous. (He would most likely pick himself) He's pretty good at math and running I guess, but nothing too special. Anyway, for one thing, he's one of those kids who thinks he's really good at everything. For some reason, when he brags, it doesn't get on my nerves...Anyway, I once asked him to go do a math problem during math team, he told me he couldn't because he had mental problems. Oh yeaaaaaaa. :? He's really anti-social, so I guess he could be autistic or something. He takes off his shoes during class and puts his feet on his desk, he licks his desk, and turns around to the girl behind him and asks her to sleep with him. :uhh: I don't know what this kid's name is, but he's quite strange. He's a really, really white and nerdy kid, and oblivious to basically everything. He's made friends with the "gangsta Mexicans", but yesterday, he sat down at my lunch table. My friend was reading a book about Dungeons and Dragons, and then this kid sits down in front of him and says..."DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS SUCKS YOU SHOULD PLAY RUNESCAPE ITS SO FUNNNNNNNN" except perfectly serious.

What are your favourite crisps?
Oh yay, we like the same chips. Let's be friends! :twss: Any type of spicy (If you can even call them spicy...) Doritos are good too.

Smash Club.
Kent's so good (at hacking) he can play 1v2. : (Couldn't you have just done that Captain Falcon thing you've been wanting to do?) I think I'll start playing online a bit more. I don't really use my Wii much anymore, what a pity...

Smash Club.
Metaknight has by FAR the best recovery in the game. No, it's not even comparable to rob. Oh right, that's just me, since I can't figure out how to get Metaknight's Up+B to go the way I want to. And yes, I know how to glide...It just dies on me because I suck. So what...Metaknight, ROB, Dedede, Kirby, Pit?
