I don't think music with violent themes really could cause suicide. For a long time, parents have tried to blame art forms instead of pre-existing psychological problems not attended to.
But the fact that the teacher played it in class? I don't know...It's weird, it's unprofessional, but the school shouldn't have gone to this extent.

I don't see how I can win here, unless I get involved in a lengthy debate and you clearly aren't going to budge on anything, so I don't see the point. Like you said, I am too dumb/ignorant/full of bullshit to argue correctly anyway. I'm not admitting this sarcastically either, you are right. I am a propaganda-spreadin' idiot.

The contents of this post actually prove how dumb/unable to argue I am, right? Pretty cool, I'm doing your job FOR you!

Fine, I did fuck up by not explaining my stance. The video isn't a good example of anything, I stumbled upon it yesterday and found it interesting. My first post was ill-thought-out, and I understand why I would seem ignorant because of it.

But please stop assuming I love Hilary Clinton/I am getting mad because you're showing Obama's superiority over her. I did not ever say that Obama was less qualified than Clinton, nor did I realize I was posting a "Clinton propaganda" video. I did not refute your arguement because, as maybe you did not read, I do not support Clinton.

I am leaning towards McCain. Because he has much more experience, he's not going to cut taxes like crazy like other Republicans want to do, he is against universal health care, he is in favor of environmental protection, he does not want to pull out of Iraq early, and he doesn't let religion influence him greatly like most Republicans. And that is my stance.  :woop:

I don't support Clinton.
Roberson what's your cutoff? did you know Hillary Clinton has only held a political office for eight years? why would you say he's all style and no substance considering he's apparently been in political office longer than the next contender?
why would you come into this thread thinking you could post a youtube the Hillary Clinton people have been sending around, linked from once again TNR, and then say HEY GUYS DID YOU KNOW BARACK OBAMA NEVER DOES ANYTHING? do you think everyone in this thread is that dense?
you're pretty dumb!
And yes, automatically interpret me posting the video as my ONLY reason for not supporting Obama. Maybe I should've wasted time explaining "This is a funny video" and "I do not support Obama" as separate ideas, but I didn't feel like it. Christ, you'd think if that video was my sole reason for not voting for Obama, I'd say "AND THIS is why I am not voting for Obama"...

lol. I am fucking kidding. No, we don't have basic government classes in high school. Will that calm your irrational, knee-jerk rage?
Obama is all style and no substance. Throw the word "change" around, talk about vague "plans to save America", the guy still has no qualifications. I don't support Clinton, but that is my take on it. Feel free to unleash the Obama-supporting fire unto me.

So much old-school hate! I'd rather play DQ8 than the "modern" RPGs like Mass Effect or FF12 or whatever. Seriously, in order to appeal to the average consumer, they are forcing RPGs away from their roots. I'd bet FF13 is going to have action-heavy elements with mild RPG elements thrown in. When a game like DQ8 or Lost Odyessy comes out, people rail on it for being too "traditional" or "boring", which basically means it's too much of an RPG and not enough an action game.

This game got below average reviews. The hit detection is supposedly pretty bad, which I would have guessed. I don't understand the point of this game...Why would the DQ franchise mess with a perfect formula?

Better/More Multiplayer Modes
Branching Single Player (or longer than 5 hours like FPSs are nowadays)
Include Carbine
Shotgun less powerful/inconsistent
More emphasis on ACTUALLY USING COVER in multiplayer.
4-player co-op (duh)

They have a lot of work to do.

Yeah but the PS3 focused so hard on their Blu-Ray and matching M$ online, they forgot to make good games.
I'm wondering, though, how can the PS3 have a Blu-Ray player, and standalone players cost more? It really makes no logical sense.

Also, solid state devices have faster loading and stuff than discs and since there aren't any moving parts, there's less chance of a failure with the product itself.  While I loved the PS1 and the whole "video games move to cd" thing, I still prefer the cartridge machines because those things were INVINCIBLE.  You could drop them from your roof and they'd still play.  Now if you touch the PS3 the wrong way it shatters and the 360s are shipped with a ridiculous failure rate.  There are even reports of Wiis that are getting disc read errors because they're poorly manufactured and have too many god damn moving parts..

QFT! As a lad I threw most of my NES games against my basement wall in frustration, yet they still work today, as long as I blow hard enough (well that sounds extremely dirty). The problem is with both the software and the hardware; right now I have 2 broken systems, an Xbox and a Wii, and 10+ "broken" discs with a single scratch or smudge.

Speaking of upcoming fighters, am I the only one disappointed with the Soul Caliber series? The original on the DC kicked so much ass, but the 4th one looks really terrible. They've just gotten worse and worse.

BTW what the hell is Ranbats?

I don't see the big deal with any of the new formats. I do not own an HDTV, nor do I care to. I seriously doubt the public really is ready to switch from their good ol' DVDs.

That Paypal thing IS redic (ridiculous), they should boycott the site longer than a single week to make a bigger impact.
Thank god I always use Amazon instead when I do my rare online shopping.

I have to agree...They really don't get a cinematic feel with the supers that they were going for because of the goofy graphical style. I dunno, maybe it won't be a big deal, but there is no need to hinder gameplay like that.
Oh, and the new characters are meh.

They HAVE to put in M. Bison, as well as Vega, Balrog, and Sagat. Bringing back the SF2 8 and not the bosses doesn't make much sense. And I doubt anyone original characters from SF3 are coming back. They seem to be going in a different direction. THEY TOOK OUT PARRIES!

Yeah the vocals are great. The grungy, garage-y, yet poppy style is pretty fresh.
Keep up the good work (O.O)b
