The announced number has been set at 30-35. 50 is a pretty unrealistic number, sadly.

If that's a dick, then it's the weirdest looking dick I've ever seen.

If Sweden's political process is anything like America's, then he's trying to use Second Life to win the support of younger voters. He'll especially win them over if he plays all the time. And regarding your other comment, he's not going to try to use any internet popularity to create internet restrictions/taxes. That would prove disastrous, considering virtual protesters can do more damage to the embassy than real protesters. Sweden's not the only country getting in on this. Somewhere in the game is a Capital Hill, with Nancy Pelosi planning to appear to answer questions soon. (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16721097/site/newsweek/) This "gamer" demographic is a huge untapped resource in politics, one that John Kerry failed to win over in 2004. Look at it this way: if you were a Second Life player, and you knew a presidential candidate played the game too, wouldn't you want to vote for him? There's already a level of connection there because he/she plays the same game that you do. Gecko, don't feel so bad. This is really more of a PPR thread than anything. If someone here made a "OMG FFVII DS REMAKE!!1" thread in PPR, the reaction would be the same.

I shouldn't be dropping any more juicy tidbits of information about my FoF project before it's announcement, but I will say that I've been talking to Wire in the last couple weeks. Expect at least one song from this album to be in. Also, what were your thoughts on the Castlevania track, EdgeCrusher? Just wondering.

Well, they did try a lot of new stuff this time around (death metal growls, sitar, more emphasis on vocals), so I can see where you're coming from.

The Zelda song from that album has been on the site for over six months. But yeah, it's fantastic.

P2P clients. I'll admit, the first I heard this song years and years ago was under the pretense that it was some strange song by that band.

No, we didn't. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to empty out this can of hair spray.

Yeah, but where are you going to get cheap plastic surgery that quick?

Yeah, it's Turner Broadcasting's official statement on the incident. They may have made a mistake, but at least they know how to cover their asses to avoid any further problems/lawsuits. Man, we'll be talking about this in Broadcast Regulation class tomorrow...

...yep. That's the weird thing about ATHF. I only find it mildly funny at best, but I still watch it religiously. Hell, I even own all the DVD sets. There's just...something about it that makes me watch, or at least not change the channel.

I'm assuming you mean GameCube. Sorry, but there isn't much beyond Super Smash Bros. Melee and Mario Kart Double Dash.

I'm a big Aqua Teen fan, but I have to say I, like a lot of others, are skeptical about they're going to stretch a 15 minute cartoon, especially one like ATHF, into a movie. I'll absolutely go see it if it's playing around here, though. EDIT: YouTube lol

Thanks. also10char

I agree. What bothers me the most is that the people who were negative and being harsh about it didn't even seem to understand that it was a friggin alpha version, and nowhere near complete. Plus, it makes the GH fan community look bad as a whole.

What was old and obsolete had to be destroyed to make way for the glorious future! ...you know, kind of like a forest being paved over to make a housing development.

Wow, that's pretty cool. If you don't mind me asking, how much do they pay for crosswords, on average?

Absolutely. Go to their website and just burn everything to CD. Well, at least wait until they finally release Waltz for Luigi on something other than their myspace page.

pretzel looks like he doesn't wanna be anywhere near you. Ha ha.

That sounds a hell of a lot more interesting than a holiday about Mario.

Yeah. Some people are planning for the future, though. HO/POs are planned for future versions of the game and mods of it. I'm still a GH n00b, so I don't play past Easy much (but I try). By the way, my OCR song pack thread is coming really soon. I just need to hear back from a few key people, then it's on.

Absolutely all the GH/GHII songs. In the FoF Tune Tradin' forum, find the thread made by cama. His English is awful, but he's posting the highest quality GHII songs. Sadly, most of the fan-made songs, as I've mentioned before, are usually way too hard. Some song makers are getting together to make organized song packs with all difficulties, though.

Look for a PS2/USB converter on the net so you can play FoF with the GH controller. Also, if you're going to import GH songs into FoF using the importer, expect it to take a HELL of a long time.

I'll tell you right now: there's no hammer-ons or pull-offs yet, and whammy bar looks almost impossible to implement, but all the Guitar Hero basics are there.

Take a look at this. Some guy rigged up a Wiimote/Nunchuk to use with FoF. Looks hard, but also fun.
