This was actually a great musical. It's probably one of the only musicals I'd watch or ever watch again. It was great, and I bet it did the original justice.

You better be prepared for tons of sliced necks though.

In the books Dexter is still lovable to some degree, but he is definately worse. He considers Rita his "pet".

And the show stopped going in line with the books towards the end of Season 1 when Dexter killed his brother, so more than likely it could keep going past a Season 3.

Thanks btw.

I still haven't finished Season 1...

I think they made a lot of progress, but they started it over after seeing half life 1? Or something like that. I have high hopes for this game, look at the success of Prey, finishing that game also took like 10 years and it's pretty good actually.

Actually Prey was pretty bad. In fact, it was almost garbage for how long it took to make.

The whole story and idea was "interesting" but it wasn't pulled off right. The only stuff that you actually go to do that involved your heritage was the spirit mode which was pretty much a gimmick, and the spirit world thing whenever you "died." And the death thing eliminated any and all challenge to the game. You could NEVER die, and NEVER had to start over. Even after beating the game and go to Cherokee (read: "Hard") difficulty, it was the same. The death gimmick was still there, so there was nothing harder about the game other than enemies took more hits and you probably had to venture to the stupid spirit death minigame more than you wanted to.

In reality, Prey was really bad.

he has a good and clear opinion, any reviewer capable of saying what they REALLY mean as opposed to temporary masturbati gets a plus in my book.

i agree about bioshock being a dumbed down System Shock 2. bioshock, although I initially loved it, is way overrated, and I think a lot of reviewers gave it a great score based on their initial reaction rather than perspective

this dude seems to have a great perspective though

edit: also he cuts a lot of the boring crap reviews tend to be blogged down by

That's the main reason I like him.

And bazookatooth, I'm not saying "Yes go to Yahtzee for great reviews!" I'm just saying he's pretty funny and he makes some good points.

As a side note, he actually says Halo 3 is overrated (which I agree) and that's a plus considering over half the gaming community thinking Halo 3 is the Holy Grail.

Zero Punctuation

Does any one here remember Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw? He created those games in AGS: 5 Days a Stranger, 7 Days a Skeptic, Trilby's Notes, and one last one I can't seem to remember.

Well apparently he has a review site where he has little videos complete with crazy (and usually funny) drawings that accompany his voice. As it is called "Zero Punctuation", he rambles on consistently without stopping at all and goes extremely fast, but you can usually make out what he says. If not, go back some. (I'm also pretty sure he records segments then sticks them together because there's no way to talk that fast for so long without stopping.)

Anyway, I'd advise you to check it out. He actually has some good reviews and makes really good points in most of them, all while pointing out any flaws and/or making jokes about parts of the game. It's all good fun and I recommend you watch some. The Assassin's Creed particularly hits home for me.

Check it out!

Will Smith is improving a lot. He did a really good job in The Pursuit of Happyness, I love that movie.

I'm definitely going to see this.

Teaser Trailer

I really don't know what to think about this. I love the first Deus Ex, and I still liked the 2nd one but it wasn't as good as the original.

Now the third...hmm, I don't really know what I can say. Especially since it is a sketchy trailer.

What's everyone think?

I 5*ed every Career song on Expert about a week after I got it. Raining Blood was the last one I got. The only songs I don't have 5*ed are a couple bonus songs (like the last two) and Through the Fire and Flames.

I beat Through the Fire and Flames on Expert exactly a week ago. It was a pain, and I just watched that crazy video which makes me feel sad. My highest score for it is 302k I think, but that's in Pro Face-Off. My actual highest is like 278k and that was the very first time I beat it.

Guitar Hero is a really fun game and I still play it a lot, trying to get better. Also, for 360 players, the boss battle tracks are downloadable by themselves now for free. The only one I've passed on Expert is Slash's song. Tom Morello's gets crazy at the end and The Devil Went Down to Georgia is even worse, because they throw in some of the Devil's parts (like the impossible fast strumming).

I've been taking it semi-slow through the game and so I'm not done yet. I'm on the second to last assassination.

This game is easily one of my favorites of all time. It's refreshing, really interesting, and just damn fun. The story is REALLY good and it actually keeps me paying attention to the cutscenes (which all of them are real-time and you can move around in them, etc.).

I really recommend this. It's really fun and new, has some of the best graphics on the 360 (not THE best, that'd probably be Bioshock or something), and it's just really really good. The only downfall is that the combat DOES get a bit repetitive (after a lot of it) but you can decide to go about combat in different ways to try to switch it up.

Get this game.

so this is still going on?

i still haven't deciphered whether this is real or not. i mean not to be all "harsh" but he isn't dead yet. so either this is just a big giant prank HOHO I GOT YOU or it's serious but the kid isn't actually doing TOO much harmful things (or he would not be making more videos no?)

hm.

If you want a really fun music game, get Guitar Hero II. Or you can wait about 3 days to get Guitar Hero 3 which is coming out Sunday.

GH2 is a really great game, and I'm sure GH3 will be even better.

i wouldnt say "we" are growing up fast. most people do it slowly. you are just cramming as much stuff into as small a time as possible, apparently.

so.. uh.. congrats, i guess, but man kids BEFORE 20 is not something i usually congratulate.

yeah this was along the lines of what i was gonna say!

This was just pretty much bullshit she thought up with rumors to "boost series morale" or something.

And I like how everyone is going "I noticed this blah blah" (I'm not talking about the ones joking like steel and climbtree) and all this sheet. How about this: She announced it and NOW YOU ARE READING TO MUCH INTO IT and making excuses because you don't want to admit that J.K. Rowling is officially bullshitting now.

Yeah this is fucking horrible.

If it's a big joke, then HAHA YOU FELL FOR IT I guess? But it's pretty fucking ridiculous for a joke. It's not funny at all. If anyone here is in on this (if it is indeed a joke) that's REALLY REALLY PATHETIC.

Something needs to be done for this kid because he does not know what he's doing it seems like, or maybe he does but doesn't comprehend it fully as he is handicapped. Definitely everyone on youtube is an idiot for their extremely stupid responses and all the video responses do not help at all.

If someone can find out a way to do something about this, do it. This is pretty horrible.

Also climbtree is very terrible at acting serious...
"Guys this is serious" usually tends to be a joke but this is REALLY pitiful so I hope it's not a joke and that something can be done.
