It's one of those moral deals and there's no wrong or right answer for it really. It's like a 9 year old buys Quake or Halo, or Grand Theft Auto, the kid is fully aware of what the game provides, violence and death, the retailer is aware of this, the parents at many times, are not. Parents don't put an influence on what their childern do, but they ARE aware nearly all video games are violent and should be banned in some fashion and thus we're stuck with nothing but mario You know, in some way, Mario is a violent game cause you step on animals or abuse them in some fashion, thus mario is banned. Its the childs fault for taking a game into reality and translating a game material to his or her interactions in the real. That's my opinion. If kids just plain and simply say they're insane, they keep their lives but only harm them selves by being neglected from public attention. But atleast they wouldn't hurt anyone else.

I think I remember Sega Saturn as being not that bad, personally I felt the Dreamcast was the system that was the final mark for Sega. Now you talk about Wireless from a third party source, I'm talking about a Wireless from a FIRST PARTY SOURCE you freak. Microsoft's wireless controlers are from MICROSOFT, not LOGITECH, or WAVEBIRD, M I C R O S O F T. Everything for the 360 that is wireless is provided by M I C R O S O F T, not Third party. I'm positive Wireless third parties will even emerge, but my point is the system is to go wireless, PS2 is NOT wireless, Gamecube IS NOT wireless. Let's also be honest, SONY has NOT announced a RELEASE for the PS3 in Spring. They are having a NEWS CONFERENCE IN SPRING POSSIBLY ABOUT THE RELEASE OF THE PS3 IN 2006 Which could also change to an early date. They have also announced that much of the total feel and appearance of the PS3 AFTER E3 were concept designs. Microsoft went thru nearly 6 prototype designs before they revealed the final shape of the Xbox360. I'm sure SONY with the PS3 has had many changes as well BUT they have said they're at concept still, they are not final on the entire design. I don't care if SONY is going to wait and blow the freaking world away, I want to see what Microsoft can do in competition, and they seem to feel pretty cofident on their line. Let's not also forget Microsoft is almost immortal, they're a multibillion dollar industry that's linked with millions of other companies just like SONY. To say Microsoft will fall like Sega is none sense. $l-lU+ Y4Z +R4p! 4/\/l> l<rI 0/\/ Y4Z /\/\4/\/\4z $l-l0U[l>R! DISCUSSION OVER! ____________________________________________________________________ Now then back to Ridge Racer, I thought the PSP's design of the game was brilliant comapred to that of the DS. The graphics were clean, sharp, visually pleasing, overal it was very enjoyable to play. My favorite thing about Ridge Racer was the race playback. I loved seeing how I was drivin thru the course at high speeds pulling off amazing drifts at turns and how some moments I would be drifting and just SCREAMED past my opponents. Ridge Racer is gonna be right up there for high performance play with Need for Speed I think. My only thing is that Ridge Racer is pure high roller import cars while Need for Speed deals with more affordable in a way of vehicle racing. But still, Ridge Racer is great, I got no complaints over the title. I hope the tracks will be very curvy, and very long, I hope for great success with this series^_^

Personally I feel that not being able to play my "gems" even if they're over 10 years old does hurt me as a consumer. While a small design to fit in my pocket would be a huge benefit to being sneaked in school or work or where ever you feel possible, if I got some hankerin to play an oldie, I can't cause micro wont do it. I thought Nintendo was playing super smart there in the beginning, but to now phase its GBA system away from its past games is a let down. While there are alot of games out for the GBA system, I want substance to play my old games. That's how I feel about it, others can feel different, but I'm not impressed by the Micro. Infact, everything I heard from Nintendo has almost been a complete letdown except for the unique controler for the Revolution.

We mock you all the time don't we? atleast Microsoft gets first dibs into the wireless adventure circle and already has titles planned out for the next 4 years. Oh yeah, lets not also forget, Microsoft was the only one which had a solid release date which is only slightly over 30 days away... Where's SONY at this time? Why they're still working off concept designs cause their feelings got hurt over the boomer rang controler! Not too mention, the PS3 looks like George Formans grill but all chrome like......I think I'd like to see something different. But back on subject from insulting a moron who always inserts his foot so far in his mouth its out of his ass... ____________________________________________________________________ The game looks like it'll be pretty good, might go on my list.

I talked to the people I know at Gamestop, actually it was over 2 weeks ago that I finally got the word of it all. I was pretty dissapointed by the fact that Microsoft is having two versions of the 360, it reminded me very much of selling cars. You got your basic of the basics, no AC, Manual transmission, no CD player, and no Power windows. Then you got your sports variation, the high roller, Six Disc, Bose, bigger liter engine, Climate Control the works. Here we see a basic version of the 360, wired controler, subscription to Xbox magazine, and the system....not even a freaking memory card. Then you got the "standard" version for an extra 100 bucks, Wireless controler, 20Gig hardrive, Xboxlive Silver Membership, Enabled Xbox Live connection (if I remember right...) and all the connections for HDTV ready. So I told Sean (the guy I talk too alot at GS) and told him to put me down for the big mother load and for a few extra stuff, like a battery charger, an extra Wireless controler etc.etc. He looked at me going "Wow, what games you got on order now?" 1) Elder Scrolls 2) Need for Speed 3) DOA4 4) Call of Duty 5) Perfect Dark Zero I'm also thinking of putting it down for Quake IV, but I'm not sure, I haven't touched it since the original Quake so many years ago when i was in Elementary school I believe....wow I think the first FPS game I ever played was Wolfenstien. Since the system is making a midnight release, I put in a day off on the 22nd, gonna try and switch hours with my old man on that day so I get off work at 6 instead of 5, get a brand new TV, hook it up at home, take a quick nap, go pick up my friend from his place, drive 35 miles BACK to Portland, grab the 360 and head back around 2 AM and we're gonna have a DOA/Perfect Dark Zero, and N4SpMW burn out, we don't plan on going to sleep till maybe 2 PM : / we are gonna be seriously zonked out from all the gaming. I also got a magazine that had all this great info on the 360, I may try and get a faceplate for it, I thought the Carbon Fiber faceplate and this whicked Blue one I saw with White vynil on it looked sweet. Personally I'd want one of the E3 ones but no, that's too much. My friend and I are gonna strive to get the 360 up and running online too so we can do some Halo 2 and get the new maps. W00t! I'm so physced for November.

A month ago I picked up the new Blue DS, I love it to death cause blue is my favorite color. I almost picked up Nintendogs but everywhere I went was sold out cause of some pormotional deal that was going around or something the weekend prior to my purchasing. But I did get Yu-Gi-Oh! Nightmare Trabadour and like it. This is my second, yes SECOND DS cause I got rid of the original due to pixel problems and to put towards my PSP which is now coming out in White......dammit all. I took a look at the Micro and all I really gotta say is WHY? I mean, spend 30 dollars more, and you can DS and Advanced games while the Micro can only do Advanced......so why bother? Not too mention the screen is smaller and the overal size of this thing is tiny, its like Cell Phone generation for the GBA, I completely dislike it.

lol I trashed my box, I generally ruin it since I use one part to keep parts that haven't been soaked, and the other is where the soaked parts go so I can leave them to dry. But very interesting Color scheme, this is your second Strike kit now isn't it? I STILL havent bought the Aile Pack and I SO FREAKING NEED TOO! But for the next several months my money is gonna be so tight with the anime convention in Seattle, and my Xbox360 and in need of having a seamstress make me a cosplay outfit. But still, if I do come across some PG Kits, they're on my top of the list.

I thought Shannon did have her baby? I'm pretty sure she was on a delivery table in the med ward and everything, and the way they discussed it at the end was that she did have the baby.....then again, I've seen maybe 2 episodes of Season 2 cause I keep missing it do to my odd work schedules now.

You know, that's probably the only picture I can say Miyuu was actually cute in. I don't think she was really that attractive in Sailor Moon, well, when you put all the girls together, Keiko, and Ayaka were probably the cutest out of all of 'em.

A 2.0 Zeta better have a very much redesigned transformation or I'm not gonna touch it. The ReGZ was a great kit, I wish I took it more seriously and not have screwed it up like I did and give it a bad coat of paint. But I do love how well it was designed.

Yeah, can't believe there's an english edition up and running when the series appeared in August.... But I did get Episodes 1 and 2 but they took me alllllll day and I lost the links where I got them. one was done by a group called "Guyver Fansubs" the other is annoynomus and weren't very good, they used Windows movie maker and the subs were very poorly done, just the way they script it. Finding a solid group whose going to work on it I think will be very tough.

If any of you guys are interested, a friend of mine has been doing mini fandub clips of Aquarion and they aren't bad, hell I'm even in them, I play Toma If you guys are interseted, just send me a PM

Wow when did Shakti show up in the third movie?! Did she somehow sneak into the ship while Anakin and Obi-wan were attempting to rescue Palpatine?

The show could have and should have been better than this, they were doing fine in the beginning till that recap crap went into effect. Fukuda and Okawara need to apologize to the fans and step down from working on any potential Gundam series and let Tomino back into the spot light. Just about every Gundam show he's done had a great success rating and has a huge amount of fans in the process. We can diffenetly see that in the Zeta movies being sold out when tickets go up.

OKay guys, no one is seeding the episodes anymore and the first episode wont play, it just does an error messsage and closes.....none of my players like BS or VLC or anything will play it. SO, wonder when the american release is gonna be out? lol

I knew that thread was up, didn't really give a poop, just wanted to get peoples attentions and have you do the work for me But still, I got episode 1 subbed......but I don't know the group doing it and it seems the next 3 episodes aren't seeded anymore.

I found EPisodes 1-4 subbed, but I only managed to get the first episode, haven't watched it just yet but I plan too. The other episodes wont download no ones seeding it man that makes me mad.

I don't know why anyone hasn't mentioned this yet except for the fact that the show was being done. But now their up to their 8th episode?! The character designs aren't bad, I could get to liking this new Sho design, but the rest are very similar to the original creators variations. But what I wanna know is if someone is subbing this or what?!

I do wish I could of had a chance to get Luke's when I knew it was going out.....but I didn't get the chance oh well dammit all.

god the more I look at pictures of it, the more I actually wouldn't mind getting one. I've restarted watching Aquarion cause Mahou is the only one releasing it thus far despite their slowness in the past. Now I'm at Episode 11.

Hell yeah! Char Saves the day!

looking at that shot of Destiny and Freedom it makes me think each time when a picture like that shows up that the battle would be as beautiful as that, but it NEVER EVER IS! I haven't seen a glorified Gundam battle since..........since........dammit someone help me out! I mean k'mon.....I want a hard driven battle between those who stake their pride and life on the line. I want Kira to fight his damnest to put shinn out of his misery cause Dillandul's words are false and misgiven while Shinn wants to destroy Kira cause he's the only person who could stop him from making the perfect world a reality where he will never have to loose another person ever again too war. The whole theory of a Char's Counter Attack esque movie from the Gundam SEED universe has always been brought up and it never stops. They do say that this will be the end of the Gundam SEED story, but yeah, like Poke'mon......milk the cash cow before her utters wilter. I hope they pick some other team and animation group to produce a Gundam SEED movie...I really think that if the story had been kept, but we saw a different group entirely working on SEED, we could of had a much more broader spectrum of the series....that's why I think a different animation group, and director should lead the way towards a Gundam SEED movie, maybe not so much of a Char influence, but something with a dark and twisted nature to it....

man I would of loved to have seen some of the gundams coming out, and you didn't take a shot of the Garland! ;_; my poor lil garland is deprived so much! Still, those were great shots, great clarity yo.

I liked that episode, now that was pretty much the season finale' wasn't it?

........47 blew........48 is gonna suck when I see it......and I'm almost ready to condemn this series to ever be disscussed in public.....I will lop off heads I swear to god.
