Ok, so i just got in from attempting to get my christmas shopping done...i've just got a couple of presents for a couple of friends left, my mother, and my sister. ALLLLLL done after that. Got myself some clothes, a webcam, like 40 comics, and of course, a game.

Unfortuantly SB, it wasnt Rygar, although when my sister comes home fro chicago, thats what she's getting me. I got "Freedom Force" for my laptop, it was 20 bucks, and looks WICKED fun. Cant wait to play!

Abruptly switching topics...

For just getting a brand new Xbox Saturday, Pez sure is tight-lipped about it. How's it going with the big green machine hun?
How are those hockey games and such working Lion?
How's Medal of Honor Cibo?
How's....things? Eagle?
So yeah...just somebody talk about some games...and not Cibo's av

 

[Liontamr]

Sorry... Cibo's av scared me into silence..

Eh, my hockey game is awesome as always.. I haven't really touched any of my other games in the last week or two.

 

[StrawberryPez]

the only restless big green machine around here is me

I can't sleep when I want to. I can't eat when I want to. When I do I can't taste it anyways. I can't breathe through my nose. I can't see straight. I can't lift anything above 10 pounds.


I don't see any video game playing going on anytime soon. I wouldn't be able to see the tv. It's bad enough when I post I have to read it 10 times to make sure it makes sense.


*cough* *sneeze* I'll go die now....bleh..

 

[Cibo]

Sorry to hear that Pez.

MOH was great SP.

And sorry Arc, was super tired last night, heh.

 

[Arc da Rat]

Aww ~ thats ok Cibo ... I was really tired tonight. Fell asleep again playing Sims On-line. LOL

Pez ~ get better soon!

 

[Eagle70]

I'm about to go Christmas shopping, but i gotta jump on real quick, here's an abrupt change of topic.

Anyone read any good comics laltey? Best comic I've read in a LONG time was the new Captain America series...the one under the Marvel Knights imprint. SO awesome, i've always liked Cap, but never liked reading about him...this series changed my mind. Its great...Cap the way Cap should be done.

Ultimate X-Men continues to make me on happy camper. Such a good series, and now Magneto is back...watch out!! And Jean's got the Pheonix force....scary.

Exiles is a wicked good book from Marvel too...i highly recommend it. Cause, i mean, Blink is in it. and she rules.

Batman has taken a huge upswing, since Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee have come aboard. Jim Lee is the MAN. He's such a tremendous artist...the best, in my opinion, of his generation. Then behind him comes Joe Mad and Mike Turner...and now i think Ed McGunnis is the next big thing...but we'll see what happens there.


Oh, and LT, hear that Austin's coming back? Vince has confirmed it. I cant wait, i miss the Rattlesnake.

 

[Vay]

I used to read comics when I was younger, but didn't regularly buy theme, so my collection is rather random. Webcomics however, I do dabble in a little bit.

 

[Spaceboy]

Man, Cibo's av still freaks me out everytime I check the thread

Hehe...but anyway. Eagle, you need to fill me in on new comics...I'd love to read more of them, but just can't seem to make myself buy them. I did read some of Wolverine's Origin comics, didn't get to read them all though.
So who can tell me what games to play if I want something tactical and strategical like Final Fantasy Tactics?

 

[Eagle70]

Allright SB, heres your crash course on comics that are MUST reads, imo.

Ultimate X-Men: Right off the bat, the X-Men done right. Pretty much, starting over from the begging, but the X-Men if it were done in the year 2000. So awesome, its just so incredibly great. Like i said, the X-Men done right. no 56 members, no stupid shit, its just straight ahead good reading.

Exiles: Totally rules, think Sliders (remember that TV show, with Jerry O'Connel?) meets the X-Men. That pretty much sums it up right there, the best part is seeing other dimensions Marvel Heroes.

GI Joe and GI Joe Frontline: Two great new GI Joe comics, whereas Frontline tackles stories about the Joe's from 1995 till now, where the regular series kicks off. SO good

Thundercats, Battle of the Planets, and Transformers: All awesome, cause they're new stories of all the cartoons i watched back in the day.

Captain America: Incredible. Just Incredible.

Ultimate Spider-Man: Same idea as ultimate x-men, best written spidey, but i'm not into it, too deep into the series already, around issue 30, i cant start now.


Thats good for now, lol. oh, and the new Batman. Jim Lee RULES!

 

[SeST]

anyone seen on Entertainment.. BeetleJuice 2.. Michael Keaton is coming back 1 more time.. SWEET!!

 

[Liontamr]

Oh, and LT, hear that Austin's coming back? Vince has confirmed it. I cant wait, i miss the Rattlesnake.

Yeah my best friend was telling me that this morning. Like I said, I gotta admit it's be nice to see him back again..

Even cooler? The fact RAW 2 for Xbox would have him and SD4 wouldn't

Vandal Hearts 1 is a decent game, but my 3rd favorite game of all time has to be Kartia. Beautiful Yoshitaka Amano characters, excellent story, believable characters, interesting battle system (despite battles sometimes being dragged out), interesting music score, tons and tons of pros for it.

I'm also writing a mini FAQ for it. I strongly suggest it, if you can still find it.

 

[Spaceboy]

Alright, the thread hasn't been bumped in a couple days, so here goes.
Vay: That's cool about beetlegeuse...now if they can just get micheal keaton to reprise his role as batman.
Pez: I know you're feeling better, so how 'bout talking about that xbox somemore?
Eagle: That's cool about the comics, I read one of the new Daredevil comics this weekend, one with Kevin Smith helping out. It was pretty cool and all but...I don't want to buy them because you can usually read them in just a few minutes in the store...
Cibo: Sorry we're picking on your av...you can come back and post and I promise I won't make fun of you.

See, thats no fun though...reading comics at the store. No good. At mine, they'd kill you if you were actually reading them, lol. I dont even flip through the books i usually buy, i just grab them. And the Kevin Smith "Daredevil: Target" comic is great, DD vs. Bullseye. Too awesome.

And Cibo, you can come back...but i make NO promises about not making fun of your av. It disturbes me.
