watcdhed the crazies. pretty giood actually.
Seriously. A Christmas Carol is like a literary classic. The fact that you guys have all gone through multiple phases of your education and have not once heard about this piece of literature (or are ignorant to the fact that it isn't just some random movie) is sickening alone. Like it's definitely up there with the important books or pieces of literature that everyone knows along with like Romeo & Juliet, and To Kill a Mockingbird.yeah, you didn't read this as a kid in some little 30 word book? frick, hero, just look it up on wikipedia and become a part of civilization
i kinda get the feeling that a lot of people like this game IRONICALLY, or are taking the SO BAD IT'S GOOD mentality when playing it. i don't know how alone in this i am, but i completely disagree with this evaluation. the game is just extremely different. it does a lot of things WRONG, but i don't really think it does any of it badly.no, i agree with you. there were some moments where i said, "whoa." nothing like FLOATING MOUNTAINS OF CG AND IMPOSSIBLE PLANETS OF MAGIKS but there were these moments that felt REAL and i had to think back as to if i've ever seen/felt anything like that in any other video game (the answer was no). the gameplay is not good, though. especially the driving. i enjoyed it because of the dialogue while you were driving (really really great) but when there wasn't anything said and you have to travel to the other side of the city, it was really really dull. some parts at the end (argh, don't want to spoil it for anybody) are really, REALLY well done. great story, great characters, wonderful dialogue. makes for a great experience. (that was a good read hundley)
Dusted off ye olde N64, going to try to play through ogre battle 64 which is probably one of my favorite games. Not the prettiest on an hdtv but does the job okay.i'm jealous dude. always wanted to play that game. love the SNES one.
I swear it said movies, not television shows.fk you bro
What other games adapt to the skill of a player? The only one I can think of was the original Rayman that had the enemies adapt to you as the game went on. I remember if you always used a certain method of killing a creature they'd adapt and counter you if you tried doing it again later. It really brought something extra to the game without feeling forced or gimmicky. It just worked.Left 4 Dead does, I think.
Murder Dog, NES.dude.
Background:
"Murder Dog" was the PAL only sequel to the hit Japanese game "Hayashi no Gaia: C.R.Y.S.T.A.L". Development team Kagomi attempted to make a game which would corner the burgeoning western market, however the game's contents and atmosphere were considered too horrifying at the time and it never saw widespread release[1].
Characters:
Murder Dog: Protagonist Murder Dog is a high-ranking officer in the Cactus City police force. A copy of the original design document makes references to him fighting a large-scale drug operation, however the actual gameplay seems to consist exclusively of Murder Dog arbitrarily killing and eating random Cactus City residents while spraying blood from his eyes and emitting unsettling 8-bit squawking noises. Poor translation has left the game's plot undecipherable, but we do know that Murder Dog vehemently drags on an animated cigar before speaking and that his comments make frequent reference to a "blazing wheel". His character design is primarily centered around two glowing blood-red eyes, which Kagomi apparantly believed would humanize the character.
Susan Atari: Referred to in the game manual as "Murder Dog Top Pooch Companion", this character is completely absent from the actual game apart from an animated Game Over sequence where she removes her dress while turning into a skeleton. Some commentators[2] believe this section to have been stolen verbatim from failed Kagomi hentai game "Cockroach Whore".
Black Danger: The chief antagonist and end boss of each stage. Black Danger is primarily depicted as a Murder Dog sprite painted black and covered in animated flies, although the game manual inexplicably used for his headshot a poorly-scanned picture of the cover to Grace Jones' "Nightclubbing" album. The appearance of this character ingame will automatically destroy both the game cartridge and the console it is played on.
Goofs & Trivia:
- When Murder Dog returns from the dead in Level Two, he was originally meant to quip "Hot Enough For Ya". The translation mysteriously replaced this with a string of swearwords.
- Entering the Konami Code at the title screen plays a cutscene where Murder Dog kills and eats an old lady.
- Murder Dog cartridges contain significant amounts of incredibly toxic chemicals, leading to some to suggest their existence as part of an aborted chemical weapons program. They are consequently illegal in every country.
- If Murder Dog remains still long enough, he will drown on the blood which pours from his mouth and face.
my wife is studying pharmacy and is currently in a PCAT class, it's a whole lotta studying and we don't even know if/where we'll have to move if she gets in to a pharm program. good luckAppreciate the info. I've got Chemistry listed as my major right now, so that should work out.
In the US, a PharmD(doctor of pharmacy) degree is required to be licensed and requires around 3 years of post graduate study. Typically you'll want to major in Chemistry or Biochemistry(maybe biology too, but consider minoring in chem). The GPA requirements are usually around 3.0-3.5 cumm. and you'll probably want to do yourself a favor and do some volunteering at a hospital for a year or so to pad your application because a lot of programs emphasize hands-on/real-world experience.
f you're looking for advice on whether or not the medical field would be right for you, then I would advise you to associate yourself with someone who is already in the field that understands what it took to get there, the obstacles you encounter, and other pertinent information. In general, interacting with other people usually plays a central part in medicine, so it helps to be a natural caretaker who can communicate well, and cope with all aspects of health that can be thrown at you. Truthfully, though, medicine is so diverse and you could just opt to be a researcher instead of working in a clinic which is more suitable for someone who may not have a high tolerance for blood/guts or the general public. And be prepared to excel in school, because you have to earn good grades while having a rigorous courseload thrown at you, in order to weed out those who aren't as dedicated from those who are. Also, like others said, you could just get your feet wet to begin to decide if it's something that you'd want to consider as a career. The best way to do this is to find a job that requires little schooling, so that you don't waste several years only to decide that it's not something you'd continue to enjoy doing.Thanks for the post, dude. I actually do consider myself to be a bit of a natural caretaker, and BLOOD'N'GUTS doesn't bother me all that much. I worked valet at a hospital and every chance I got I would talk to doctors and on my breaks I would kind of wander around the hospital and do occasional errands for doctors and such. I really loved the environment there.
so anyway, then they started playing that "thinking about her, thinking about me" song over and over again and one guy called a facebook friend a dumb bitch because she tagged too many facebook photos with him in em. this is the essence of college.that song rules. it is going to be the Green Day "hope you had the time of your life" graduation video soundtrack for this next generation
