As an end of semester self-present for my *enormous efforts* to barely pass my classes.It's fine... Althought it's not as fine as I thought, it's ok.... I dunno, maybe i'm getting too old for consoles. Since the snes, I never owned a console and went to PC, now I reeeealllyy really enjoy pc games compared to console. Got like 17 games, most crap, a few ok ones. Virtua Fighter 3 Space Channel 5 (Ulala's sexy in that) Crazy Taxi 2 Code Veronica NHL 2k2 Virtua Striker 2 A racing game just bought Blue Stinger for 15 bucks, haven't tried yet. Gotta get shenmue, I know. -------------------- jump on her and demand sex!

indeed, but you're missing some good stuff like Resident Evil, or parasite Eve, one of the few games I had the chance to complete while borrowing my friend's psx.Who liked Parasite Eve? Dude, Resident Evil was so frightening man! It was really the first one, I don't know, the way it was made was just frightening. Like, you never knew what was lurking around the corner, being very afraid for you life, with your 7 bullets left. And just the mood man... I realised this when I played the RE remake on gamecube. The gamecube's owner confessed he was really affraid playing at night with lights closed. First time I played RE, forget about it man, I was 12 years old, shit in my pants -------------------- jump on her and demand sex!

heheheheheh, sounds like fun. I realize that there are some good games that I am missing out on, but for the most part from what I've seen, the games on consoles I don't really like. The graphics and general feel of a console game is nothing compared to how it is on a computer. Maybe that's because I haven't expereinced enough console games, but for the most part I wasn't impressed with them. The graphics, too blocky; the effects, too cheesy; the hp, just damned annoying. I saw one of my friends playing Final Fantasy (I think it was 10, not sure though), and he was using spells that would do about 1,000 damage, and hardly scratch the enemy. What the hell is that?Eh, like I said, I probably haven't experienced enough console games to like, or even think highly, of them. Maybe when I have more money, I'll go out and buy one, but I doubt it.

Yeah FFX enemys get outragous amounts of hp near the end of the game(which my friend is at but I'm no where near). As all FF games this ones lvling system and stats are unique, although the use of spell and counter elemental theory is all still the same. If you use the proper spell it does like 1.5 the damage usually done. If you use the wrong one it will do .5 or will heal the monster. This is cool becuse the summons can heal themselves with their attacks. Well at least the shiva,ifrit, and that horse thing can. In any case don't judge counsles by a single game, I did this once and boy was I wrong. Just like PC games, some are really shity while others are amazing. I suggest either PS2 or XBOX, I know for a fact PS2 has a lot of good games but this game and preformance fanatic I know argures that XBOX is going to be better and it's games will have better graphics. I read up on it and becuse of the way they made the PS2 XBOX will be better but I havent really played any XBOX games so don't take my word for it. I will say that PS2 games are usually fun, like FFX, Bloodrayne, GTA Vice City, Oshima(not sure how to spell it) and so forth. So if you want to really try counsole games buy a PS2 or borrow it. I always rent games before I buy em, or just beat em while I rent them. Thats bout all the advice I can give.-------------------- xcuse me while i kill my self blow my brain across the wall fuck you all, how do you do fuck me? fuck you too and now i end this all xcuse me while...... i kill my seeeeeeeeeeeeeelf

Hmmmm, yeah, very intruiging. My brother-in-law has an X-Box, and he seems to really like it.BTW, I know one game that has especially caught my eye and may convince me to buy an X-Box myself: Mech Assault! I'm a huge fan of the Mech series, and Mech Assault is going to be released for the X-Box (and maybe PS2, not sure though), and I don't know if they will eventually release it for PC or not. Eh, either way, I've seen previews of that game. Looks very good.

Yeah, but I'm an avid wrestling fanatic and watch it every chance that I get. I missed it tonight though, because my Dad doesn't have cable here. As for the game, yeah the people are misshaped, but it is kinda cool to be able to have all different types of matches. Hell in a Cell, Table match, TLC, 3 Stages of Hell (3 different matches), Street fight, Ladder match, Hardcore, etc. I think it is pretty cool to just be able to put someone through the top of Hell in a Cell, or put someone through a table. I just love the games!

I agree that wrestling games got boring now, but when it came out man, foget about it!I'll never forget that party we had at my friend's birthday. We were all a bunch of 14yr olds, and we rented WCW on N64. We had 4 gamepads, and boy, did we have a blast! But now it's gotten old and shitty, I know. Oh, and i've never liked wrestling on tv; slow and boring fights. -------------------- jump on her and demand sex!
