    Being right about everything.
  1. Making a bit o' a big deal about a pre-season game arn't ya? Nah, I know how you feel, the beginning of football season is always the best part of the year. Detroit vs. Braylon Edwards err... Cleveland for Super Bowl XXXX, mark it down. Seriously, as long as the Pats don't win it again I'll be happy.
  2. Yes, 'tis a sad time for all trek-kind. When I first heard about it I said these exact words to a friend of mine: "I will be sorely disappointed if his funeral is anything less than Doohan being shot out of a working replica of the Enterprise in a giant sun-glasses case". I had no idea I'd be half-right, but it is a very fitting way for him to go out. Though, this means I wont get to go to his funeral. Or will there be some kind of viewing area for this Falcon 1 rocket come September?
  3. Sorry, but I can't let this one slip by... Worst. Logic. Ever. The order they came out in has absolutely nothing to do with weather or not the good guys win. The series ended with Episode VI(6): Return of the Jedi, when the second Death Star is destroyed and the good Rebellion winning over the evil Empire. Episode III(3): Revenge of the Sith is set roughly 20 years before Episode IV(4): A New Hope. Then it is another 4 years from the events in the beginning of ANH to the end of RotJ. If I tried to make a bad analogy: If there were two movies made about World War II. The first one to come out takes place on D-Day and then follows the allies moving into Germany and ends with the allies winning. The second to come out (Set before the first) ends with, oh let's say, the Battle of France where Germany invades France and has an upper-hand in the war. By your logic the Axis would have won WWII. I don't know how to make that any more simplistic.
  4. 'Bout a month to late for that one. Meaning Memorial Day if you didn't catch that.
  5. Average Noun The usual or ordinary kind or quality: Although the wines vary, the average is quite good. Average encompasses the majority of games on the system. Obviously the quotation marks arn't used as exact, to the letter, quotations just as a gist of what you said. Don't pull that misquotation crap. Lock-on targeting is a bad thing? Not having to deal with the horrid complications of dual-analog controls. Making games hard shouldn't come form giving it ball-breakingly hard controls, it should come from the game itself. A concept lost on every platform.
  6. Oh yeah, a statement like "All Nintendo games are easy. Play X-Box and PS2 games." isn't biased or generalizing at all. What exactly are you basing all this on? The fact that you own three consoles? Wow, I'm impressed. My working at a Gamestop for three years and playing video games all my life (Not saying that you havn't played a lot of video games, so don't try and say that) is dwarfed to your power of owning three gaming consoles or your experience and "advice". I can deal with and have accepted the fact that Nintendo is losing much of its ground to Sony (Not that I'm all that biased towards Nintendo, I'll take a PC over any console), but I think I'm gonna draw the line at "All Nintendo games are easy. Switch to PS2 and X-Box." Until you show me a multi-console game where the GCN version is the 2005 equivalent of an old NES Barney game, thus giving any kind of support to your contemptible position, I don't think your 'experience and advice' has all that much significance.
  7. Maybe it would be a good idea to switch from Nintendo to Sony or Microsoft. Sorry to break it to you, but the average games are easy on Nintendo. Not even two posts ago you yourself said: If you don't want an argument to happen, don't start one yourself.
  8. Oh glorious man of knowledge, mind telling me what was so bad about Wind Wakers gameplay? Seeing as the progression from OoT to MM to WW hasn't changed a thing, just added new features to make them better (Not including the boundless water from WW of course). Or what was so radically bad about Wind Wakers story line compared to any other Zelda game? Also, to make a tired point: Of course games are all about graphics. All games with the slightest bit of sub-par graphics are instant crap. Yes the graphics were cartoon-y but that doesn't take anything away from the actual game. The cell-shading did just fine, they were a nice change. Calling the game kiddy is a direct shot at the cell-shading and not the game itself, as the general feel of the game is hardly any different than that of OoT. Now that that's out of the way, Twilight Princess is said to take place in an un-named (As of right now) land other than Hyrule, though you will be in Hyrule for at least a portion of the game. The story involves Link going to a festival of some sort and leads to the events of the rest of the game, which almost certainly involve Gannon, Zelda, a goth looking girl from the official artwork and Link with a special connection to animals in some way. There is no exact release date, but expect it around Christmas this year.
  9. 1) Left. (Though I do happen to have a OoT poster on my wall) 2) What the hell? 3) The stone that makes the controller rumble that I can't remember the name of? 4) Lon Lon Ranch. 5) Ten. 6) Tunic maybe. 7) A what now? 8) King of Red Lions. 9) No idea... 100 rupees? 10) Wind.
  10. Maybe it's because you're running RS at the same time...
  11. As Pete said: Gandalf would win. But come on: vs. No contest.
  12. Found this on Google, the person with the same problem said the following fixed it: So you could try saving it to your computer then unziping it.
  13. Well, sounds like you were trying to install a DesktopX Theme. I've never used DesktopX but when you use that it more or less changes the background, and adds DesktopX objects and Widgets too (I could be entirely wrong, I've used it for about three seconds). I find it much easier to use WindowBlinds which changes your start menu, toolbar, title bars, etc. and then add anything else you want with other programs. If you're set on using DesktopX someone else could be a thousand times more helpful than me.
  14. As much as you seem to think you were the first one to find this it's been discussed for a good six months already. I don't have time to look the arguments up right now but I think it had something to do with Ms. Organa dying or something of the like.
  15. And how else do you propose an office worker making a few thousand a year reach an audience of 122 people per minute? Buy his own Satellite Network? Create a nationwide newsletter? Spam your e-mail? His "Hiding behind a PC" is not hiding but using the most efficient form of translating his ideas. It's nothing but hypocritical saying someone using a web site to get their ideas across is too afraid to voice their opinion while you sit there on an online message board doing the same thing. Sounds like you're being a cynical troll to me.
