I would like to say Bush will be remembered as the worst, but there definitely have been some bad presidents in the past. Time will tell, I suppose... I do believe he's done immense damage to the US, internally and internationally. We're terribly unliked internationally - my friends always joke...

That's the easiest way to losing your virginity. I'm personally not a fan of 'virginity' in general - the concept, that is. I don't like all the religious connotation to it, or this...pedestal we've put it on. Almost like an object: "I lost it! It's gone. Look at it go." Sex is natural, and...

I honestly cannot wait for the day when the US goes the way of every other powerful country - quietly burned out, with no one else in the world so much as giving a ****. I think it would be better for the world, better for the US, and certainly better for the "Give it to me because I'm an...

A lot of the first-run systems have problems, initially. Especially the Xbox - but the Playstation 2 certainly wasn't exempt. In fact, the only one I haven't heard any problems about was the GameCube. Regardless, my advice, if you can stand it, is to wait out the first run of any new system...

Is it carbon dioxide that does that? I thought it was the natural inclination to look down while you laugh (thereby making your nasal passage and your throat equally likely candidates for liquids to go - and considering there's air coming up from your throat to laugh...).

Oy. Wednesday, March 27, 2080. That's so long from now. I'll be...well into my nineties. Woot.

For LAN play between machines, make sure you have IPX protocols installed (they aren't by default). Whereas TCP/IP is for internet play, you need the IPX for LANs. You should just be able to add the protocol in your Network window without a disc or anything (at least you can on Windows 2000)...

Actually, 'Wii' doesn't exist in Japanese. They have a 'wa' and a 'wo' (though it's often pronouned as simply 'o'). I'm betting the controller - particularly the gyroscope feature - will save them. How often have you watched (or perhaps do this yourself) people shift around in their seats as if...

Nope. It's just 'Wii'. It's supposed to stand for the direction Nintendo's going in...''We' play games' or something like that. It doesn't seem like the greatest move, though - Revolution was cool and catchy, and something we were familiar with. 'Wii'? Sounds like I need to go to the bathroom...

iPods have been advancing pretty steadily. Still...I'm not sure how impressed I am with their quality. I don't have one (or an MP3 player at all, for that matter), but all of my friends and their dogs have one (or three). They just don't seem to last on the whole - a year, maybe a half more...

I don't think Diablo II counts. It's not quite massive. It's a fantastic game, though!

1. Barenaked Ladies - Pinch Me 2. Primitive Radio Gods - Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth With Money in my Hand 3. Tracy Chapman - Fast Car 4. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Can't Stop 5. The Decemberists - Engine Driver Love those guys.

What...is it?

We do have gaming cafes here, but I actually don't know of any oriented for console gaming...all the ones I've been to are all computer gaming places. Still, I imagine they're around somewhere - or, maybe they will be, now. Up until this generation, consoles were relatively affordable, so there...

Oh, Runescape. It's like cheap crack for young ********. ...my local libraries are always full of elementary/middle school **** on every computer playing that game. Fortunately, my library's system cuts them off after an hour. I tried it myself, but couldn't get into it - all the players are...

Ha ha ha. This is awesome. So pointless, and yet...entertaining... "You are: Which Inanimate Object are you?" Har har har.

I've got an old broken down iPod myself. I decided to take it apart just to see what it looked like on the inside - it's pretty interesting. Worth the ten minutes, anyway, if the thing's already broken. It's a shame the harddrives can't really be used in anything else. I've got a nice little...

That's fair. It's smart to wait out the systems for a few years anyway. Everything'll go down in price. There's plenty of games on the Xbox down to my Super Nintendo that can tide me over until then...

Check it out - http://www.gamespot.com/features/6146540/index.html Backwards compatibility with...Genesis? That may just be a selling point for me (and I haven't exactly been impressed with Nintendo lately).

Final Fantasy V. Heh heh... "You have bad characters and they are stoopid"

Milk. Ha ha ha.

Rogue! That's a neat picture...

Stairway To Heaven by Led Zeppelin. Woot! "You're smart. Like Jeopardy smart. People sometimes took advantage of that, others just plain never bothered to see it. Some people think you're a joyless, anal-retentive tool, but the enlightened consider you resourceful. Then you learn to break out...

Thief. Ya for ganking people at low health.

Definitely picked Yoda for every question I could. ...and sure enough, it gave me Yoda.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I wouldn't have thought of myself as blunt... I guess the taking off the shirt question went a long way, eh?

Ooooo, Shiva. "The ice queen. So like you.Your heart is cold but in the right place."

Ha ha ha. Early *********! ...it's a lot of sex for early *********. Usually it's the ******** they let by, not sex.

King Arthur for the win.

Heh heh heh. Good ol' Cloud Strife. Gots to save my girl!

Raiden's popular. Though, to be fair, it was only a three question quiz (which is disappointingly uncomprehensive).

Heh. Looks like I'm also Kimahri Ronso. I talk a little more than he does, though.

For those of you using Firefox (which should be just about everyone), there's a neat extension you can download called Mines 1.0. It's just like the topic says - Minesweeper, but better. Everything from hexagonal spaces to up to seven mines on one given space (instead of just one). There's even...

Just why did he get so popular, anyway?

I just recently booted up my Super Nintendo again and am reminded by simply how fantastic some of the older games are. If any of you get the chance (or the time), I recommend going back to play games like Super Mario RPG, Secret of Mana, the early Final Fantasies, and the whole other slew of...

I admit, I'm sort of skeptical about Ghost as well...StarCraft's going on 8 years now, and it does seem like high time for a sequel. However, everything that Blizzard's put out has been fantastic (some better than others, however your opinion goes). From WarCraft to WarCraft III, from Diablo to...

Heh. Wow. I've been lugging around my overweight Xbox for years now; I just can't imagine any sort of Xbox ever being portable. The thing's like a concrete block.

Dead or Alive 4.

The Final Fantasy stuff's pretty damned good, though I'm partial to the Final Fantasy VIII music over all, m'self. Other games like Super Mario World (if you sit in the Special world for long enough, it starts playing the classic Mario theme), and Halo. Some games don't have the greatest music...

Man. I should have bought one. Or, rather, four. I heard one just sold on eBay for twelve grand. Not twelve hundred. Twelve thousand. I could have resold those suckers for...well. Let's just say it would have been a fantastic investment.

Ouch. I guess that's what they get for losing the guys from Free Radical.

I think GoldenEye should definitely be on that list. If not for the success of that game, we probably wouldn't have most of the console FPSs today (like Halo, Far Cry, seven-hundred 'Battlefield' soldier games, etc.). Wolfenstein or perhaps Doom as well, as without their success, we probably...

Anybody play through it yet? I haven't had a chance, but I just started playing the original again (hard to get used to that ol' 64 controller after the later systems, though). I hear the 360's are having some troubles, so I imagine I won't get a chance to play it myself for a while.

Perfect Dark Zero looks awesome, though it's been much too long between the last one for me to maintain any excitement for it. Still...if it's half as good as the first, it'll be a great game.

One of my co-workers got fired for playing his PSP on the job. We all thought it was pretty neat, though.

I'd play MMORPGs if they didn't cost money. And, well, if I had time for them... I tried playing that free internet one, 'RuneScape' for a while, but it didn't hold my attention. It seemed pretty pointless to me, but I might feel that way even about the ones you pay for. Still...if they didn't...

...I've been pretty lucky about that. I used to ****** my system when I got angry. They at least have a higher tolerance for ***** than controllers do...

A friend of mine called me about this asking if I wanted to camp out at Best Buy to pick up his system in the morning. Suffice to say, I did more sensible things with my time...

I'm glad StarCraft placed high. I've never got as much time out of any other game as that one; I've never been able to return to any other game as frequently as that one. ...and I've definitely never played a better RTS.

I loved the Super Gameboy! I was always a little peeved Nintendo didn't produce anything of the like for the later systems. There was that funny little add-on for the 64, but as far as I could tell, you could only use it in Pokémon games...
