Needs more robots, less anime gurls.

In my honest opinion.

I enjoy watching these, in particular Conan and Leno when he was on.
Frankly Fallon is pretty terrible, however I think some of his jokes had potential to be funny, but his delivery kills them.
I think he might get better eventually.

As for interviews, that is the part of the show I usually ignore unless its someone I'm interested in. I usually look at these for the monologues or sketches. As mentioned a bit above, stuff like the "Twitter Tracker", which was quite similar to the former "Late Night Sausage Party" bit.

But yeah, damn Wimbledon and Conan re-runs.

So I've been playing this game for the past few weeks, its wonderful.

Anyhow just yesterday I started playing online (360), getting my ass kicked left and right.
The name is LobsterVendetta if anybody is interested in fighting me.

Kinniku Buster at :41. Neat.

Looks interesting, though the whole black and white look would probably give me a huge headache after a while.

I don't often comment, as it takes me about 2 good hours to think of the right things to say, but I'll change that this time...

This is surprising news to me really, though maybe its because I don't really pay much attention.
While I never really talked or got to know anything about you I always felt, from just looking at your posts, that you were one of the most friendly and open members around here.  And of course very talented in the arts.
There was always an effort to keep that GA alive from you, which was quite fantastic, and it makes me feel terrible that I hardly participated in these events. And I'm sure the other members always appreciated your great efforts.
I always liked how you provided some helpful criticism to other artists in a way so different from the normal smart ass comments which run the place. It was really refreshing, and made GA just a little bit more comfortable.
In the end, I appreciate the things you did for GA, you were indeed quite an inspiration.

Perhaps this might inspire some of us to bring back life to GA.

I wish you the best of luck man.
Take Care.

My favourite anime series is Iria: Zeram the Animation. I also love Star Ocean EX, BetterMan, Kinnikuman, Kinnikuman Nisei, and Melody of Oblivion.

So those are a few anime series you can check out.

Ok I wasn't going to post in here, but I saw this.

Holy crap!!
Someone else knows about Kinnikuman other than me. Its a great series imo, but I must say I preferred...viewing the manga more than the anime, because it doesn't have all those stupid announcer interruptions, and I loved the artwork.

But yeah on topic, I can't suggest anything, I don't watch much anime.

Oh man I noticed this a little too late.

I'm sorry but would it be any trouble to remove me from this.
I haven't played Brawl in ages, and I have a lot of other stuff to worry about right now, so I won't able to participate. :/

if you have to pause every 0.4 seconds that looks like a pretty bad game
Its actually not mandatory, you can go though the maze with out pausing much and still have a chance to avoid the enemy.
There are only 3 parts in the game where you are stuck in a maze with an enemy (or enemies) chasing you, so you won't be doing much pausing normally unless its to heal.

Raptor: Call of the Shadows. I almost registered that one, spent a long time playing the shareware version.
Oh yes, I loved this game.
I only played the demo version and it was great. Upgrading your ship will all that hard earned money, heh.

Anyhow, a game I think only about 10 people have ever played AND liked it...

ILLBLEED (2001)
Sega Dreamcast


Wikipedia Description:
Quote
Illbleed is a survival horror video game for the Sega Dreamcast. In it, players are tasked with guiding horror movie aficionado Eriko Christy through a deadly theme park riddled with booby-traps and monsters, relying on a heartbeat monitor and her own senses (some of which are conveyed through an in-game interface and others indirectly) to avoid being frightened to death. Should she make it out alive, the eccentric genius responsible for the park's creation, Micheal Reynolds, will reward Eriko with a hundred million dollar prize and leave the amusement park.

The game's plot revolves around rescuing your 3 friends (and 1 person you meet along the way) who visited Illbleed earlier and have been trapped there for 3 days.
---
ILLBLEED obviously wasn't big, its reviews weren't all that hot either. Often complaints about it were the steep learning curve on the controls, bad voice acting and plain graphics. Now why did I like it? Well first of all I found the concept to be very interesting. It sounded corny, but eerie at the same time (which is pretty much the essence of the game). Second the controls were perfectly fine, I got a hang of them on the overworld area. The graphics didn't bother me, and the voice acting, while bad in some cases, felt a bit fitting.

I enjoyed the overall story of the game, and the sub stories of the levels themselves (they are all based after movies created by the park's creator, Michael Reynolds). The humor was bizarre and often times didn't make any sense, but it added to the eerie-ness.

The gameplay was interesting, and well done (if you understand the way the game works). It pretty much revolves around detecting traps around the level using your "senses" and a device called the Horror Monitor. There are also monsters to fight, and while the battle system wasn't elaborate, it got the job done.

In the end it was very different, and a very good concept really. I don't play many games, so this is a first for me.

So yeah video:
The reason why the player keeps on pausing at the map screen is because 1. its helpful to pass through the maze and 2. its actually a little trick that causes the villain chasing the character to stop. Not sure why but it just does.

hah, I remember this show, my mother used to love it.

One thing about it always bothered me though.
When ever the "User" or whatever would play a game, the characters would jump in and assume the roles of the enemy characters, then they would do everything in their power to not let the User win. Even some crazy stuff that looked like only the User should be able to do.
Seeing the User always lose kind of bugged me because that would mean that the AI of the computer game would have been really "cheap" or whatever.

Oh also I remember there being a Power Rangers parody in one episode.

Wow, I was mostly interested in this game because of El Fuerte, but now Dan is back?
Oh boy!

I don't really know what good graphics look like in general, but for this game I think they have improved on it very well overtime. I think it looks fine.

Hmm, if the other one doesn't kick off soon, then I would definitely try this.
I assume its 3 stock. (Could the smash balls be set to low?)

Anyways, I call Wario.

I'm guessing the Tourny may not be happening... because lack of peoples?
From the looks of it probably not right now. I noticed he added the list of players that might participate on this.

He still didn't put our team in the current team list though. :^(

Wow, this is some pretty cool news, in particular Earthworm Jim and Splatterhouse.

For Splatterhouse, I'm glad they are making it a remake of sorts, since I'm personally pretty happy with the ending of part 3.
Hah looks like Rick won't be stepping on rotten meat with his bare feet anymore, he's got sneakers now!

Key Features

    * Moé
 
What is Moé?

Moé has become one of the most popular words among Japanese "Otaku". Various definitions of Moé have been presented. However, it seems like each individual give different definitions to the word.

Here is what NIS America sees in the word, Moé:

BlahBlahBlah


Urrrgahh, what the hell is this!?
I never heard of this damn "moe" term until recently.
I swear I thought THIS was Moe:

Damn...
But might as well say something in topic?
This game doesn't look good...but then again I don't like Darkstalkers nor RPGs anyways.
And Namco X Capcom sucks because it doesn't have Richard Miller :^)

Hmm, just curious but is there a list of people that have mentioned they would participate in this?
Because if so that might help me for asking around.

If not then...uhh, yeah anybody reading this topic, who does not have a partner, interested in being partners for the 2nd SSBB Tournament? :^V

I wanted to participate in the earlier tournament, but wasn't able to, so I want to get a crack at this one!
Hopefully my internet will be kind during this.

Also finding a partner might be pretty hard for me. I don't really know anybody here that well. :sad:
But I'll try to find someone...

I think I have everyone on the current list (except the last person because it says the friend code is incorrect)
Say, anyone on, care for a few rounds?

Yeah, fun times.  I was feeling kinda out of it, so I apologize for my abysmal performance.
Hey no need to apologize man. We all have our off days. :^)
I've been meaning to ask, am I the only metaknight player among the GW regulars?
I don't see many people using him much, it also seems that I'm the only Wario player around here. (Maybe I'm wrong I dunno)

WHAT A FUCKING GENIUS! OH ITS BLOWING MY FUCKING MIND!fuck!
But seriously...
this is horrible and if you sign this then fuck you

not only is uwe boll harmless, but while he gets a ton of shit for it he is doing something he enjoys. He may make terrible movies but he has a passion for film that is apparent when people just talk to him.

i think the real bad people are the people who sign these things (which is obviously serious since boll doesn't joke around (boxing matches any one?)) are the real monsters, all jumping on someone like a pack of tigers just because he's living his dream
Pretty much this.
Honestly no one should sign this thing with serious thoughts of stopping this guys career. Its what he likes to do, and no one has the right to tell him that he can't do what he loves.

If you don't like his movies, wouldn't it just be easier to not watch them?
Some of these gamers or whatever act like he insulted their honor or something. (Hell I like House of the Dead (the game),  and I thought the movie was bad...and it just stops there, moving on!)
