Yeah, whatever happened to Lebhead? I still cringe at the memory of his Comico/alternative lifestyle "lebatars."

I lifted this from the site that mentions Under Siege 3: "Plot Outline: Casey Ryback is sent on a mission to take out Muslim terrorists who have taken over a flight from Israel to USA. " Only problem is, they've already done this; it's called Executive Decision. I would be agreeable with this story though, if Steven Segal dies in the first 10 minutes of the film as he did in Executive Decision...

You got it right. In Sin City she didn't say a thing, and the audience could forgive her strange looks as they fit in perfectly with her role as a freakish lady-assasin-type. As for 2 Fast 2 Furious (it hurt just to type it), she didn't say much either. She was the token asian presence, whose character depth was limited to sketching on a drawing pad.

So, we hate people and crowds huh? The bitter irony is that we're both Managers in the retail/service industry. I suppose if I knew what I was trying to get a good deal on I might be able to stomach the vomitous masses...

Likewise, and I've pretty much been playing with it every waking hour since I got it, outside of those wretched hours spent at work. 347413[/snapback] So which games did you get? Also, was DOA available at launch and I just missed out, or is December 7th the actual release date? One last thing: you obviously hate working at Gamestop, I guess I should really think twice about applying there. On the surface, it seems like a dream job you know...

I have to say I'm shocked-that looks pretty darn good for a bunch o' blocks...

LOL. I didn't even think about those DOA hentai pieces. As for Aoki, they're probably banking on her appearnces in 2 Fast 2 Furious and Sin City to garner attention-they'll be sorely disappointed. I wonder if Bass will be in this movie, and if he is, will Paul "Hulk" Hogan play the character he inspired?

I was eavesdropping on the clerks at a local Gamestop and they were telling everyone that walk-in buyers for the '360 would have to wait until February or so...Does that mean that defective units won't be replaced until then also?

Ugh. Who owns the rights to DOA anyway? Is it a foreign company? If so, one would think they'd have better sense than to allow their successful big-boob franchise to fall victim to the mortal-kombat treatment. Also, did you have to pre-order DOA Hikuro? I can't find the damn thing anywhere. Someone even told me that it hasn't been released yet, however every store I've been to has a spot with a price tag for DOA; the guy who was in front of me on the 22nd said that he had already bought a copy (?).

The avatar will be my wife, if I can help it. I snag pictures of women all of the time, unfortunately she didn't have a name, just her...presence..

Well like they say, those who live harder die faster. I don't imagine that people with the coin to buy these types of cars let these things out in the rain, let alone in conditions that will see their aluminum body parts experience considerable stress. In any case, are these car parts purely aluminum, or a composite? You would think that engineers would have taken the limited durability of aluminum into account when designing these things... Although I remember when I had my '69 Charger in the shop for frame straightening, the guys there told me that I was "lucky not to have had a car like an NSX or something, or else the frame on that could not have been straightened out..."

Hate people, hate crowds. To quote a legendary marine, "Oh yeah sure, with those things running around?! You can count ME out!"

Why don't you put HER in charge?! 347309[/snapback] You'd better just start DEALING with it Hudson!

I can't imagine ANYONE wanting to watch this as the trailer is just awful. Heck, even the Alien Vs. Predator trailer caught everyone's interest. If the trailer is supposed to represent the best of the movie's flow then this movie should be called DOA: Dead on Arrival... By the way NERV, the only copy that I have of that mouth watering Kasumi picture is from the forums.

Well you see he...........oh nevermind. I'd answer your question but then I'd get heat for spoiling the story, while simultaneously raping someone's childhood memories...

It was probably in search of food 347321[/snapback] Oops! Myk did it again...I honestly didn't even notice that wardrobe malfunction because she's so.........flat.

Nuking it from orbit: The official solution to all your problems. 347288[/snapback] Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on a minute here! Clearly, this is an intelligent species that we're dealing with, and I don't think that you or I or anybody has the right to arbitrarily exterminate them... 347295[/snapback] Wrong. Watch us. 347298[/snapback] Look, maybe you haven't been keeping up with current events but we just got our ASSES kicked pal!

I'm not sure how to take that site.... I can imagine the people caught up in that 15% failure rate wanting to do that though... On the homefront, it's been 2 days straight that I've left mine running. There are suggestions on the 'net saying that the system is after all a "gaming PC" so it should not be left activated for extended periods of time, but I completely disagree with that. I leave my PC on all the time and am planning to do the same to the '360; there shouldn't be any problems leaving these guys on...

Will they have a scene like this one? They should have it at the same moment that the Yamato is in the middle of her suicide mission, getting blasted from all sides with no air cover.

The actor who played Drake in the series was named Philip Akin. Dyson from T2 was played by Joe Morton. 347104[/snapback] Don't worry, happens to me all the time. Token minority characters all look the same to me...

65 out of 434, or 15%, according to a poll being conducted by the Xbox forums. Is that an acceptable failure rate? I'm starting to get flashbacks towards the days when the '48 Valkyrie first debuted. Remember the endless threads and heated discussions there were on Yamato QC just for that piece alone?

Worse than the Street Fighter movie? Not at all. Quite frankly, this movie fits in with Street Fighter along with the Mortal Kombat........films, if you want to call them that. Eventually, they will all be packed together into an "Ultimate cheesy video game/fighting movie collection." The trailer was so awful I found myself reaching for my copy of Alien Vs. Predator the movie. Not finding that, I decided to watch the second Resident Evil movie instead. Oh, and THIS is the ONLY way Kasumi can EVER look:

I hope I'm not jinxing myself, but my '360 has been running since I powered it up at 10:30am yesterday and I have not had any problems. Sure it's hot, but it's a PC dressed up like a console anyway so that's to be expected. So Microsoft knew about these issues? After the exploding Pinto madness in the '70s you would think companies would prevent this sort of post-development nonsense from happening...

In light of reports of Xbox 360s crashing from what looks like a heat issue..... http://www.xbox-scene.com/xbox1data/sep/EE...kyEHasmrPqu.php Small number though of people though. If you're having problems, don't bother to return it until next week or the week after...the artificial lack-of-supply has kinda crippled things. 347019[/snapback] A gadget oriented friend of mine once told me that any new electronic device should be placed through a 24 hour burn test, where you leave it on so that any problems or deficiencies in the unit will probably be realized in that given time. Supposively, if the device makes it out of that time period without any problems then there is a low chance of any other problems arising in the future. Can you imagine the rage that these people must be feeling? After having slept with cockroaches, cigarette butts and used slurpee cups on cold concrete for the better part of the day, now they have a defective console to show for it? Well, I'm just glad that my unit passed my friend's "test."
