  1. Believe it or not, I actually own this album. I found it at a pawn shop about five years ago. It's been about as long since I listened to it.

    If I remember correctly, the only song on the entire album that has anything at all to do with Nintendo is Jellyfish's Ignorance Is Bliss.

    The other songs are... just songs. As interesting as it would be, Crosby, Stills, & Nash do not croon with any reference to Nintendo.

  2. I don't know if it's because this is so eerily appropriate or if it's because I'm drunk, but try playing Shadow Of The Colossus while Gary Jules Mad World is playing in the background. For some reason, this fits the SotC theme perfectly. Try it!

    Or... not. I make it a point to keep Donnie Darko and Gears of War trailers separate from my Shadow of the Colossus experience.

  3. so... pretty lame teaser..

    Yeah, it was kinda lame.

    The Duke Nukem model looked low-rent (relative to contemporary expectations) and the music was, well, nearly twelve years old.

    It's nice to see some sort of progress with DNF but they could have done a lot better in giving us our first taste of this long-overdue game.

  4. Are you guys too busy crusading to read the thread? The kid made a mistake, and he's willing to fix it, although he seems unable. If you listen to his music, it would become clear that he doesn't really need to plagiarize. Chill the hell out, guys. Seriously.

    Oh, snap. The illustrious DjSammyG is rebuking us. We must recognize the error of our ways and repent, lest we face a second admonishment.

  5. Plagiarism is plagiarism.

    No matter who the criminal is, the crime is the same.

    Being more severe to one party and not the other is wrong. All who do the same crime should be "punished" the same way, at least in regards to stealing.

    Damn rights!

    Outrage should be the immediate reaction regardless of age, race, status, et cetera.

  6. Good Lord... anyone have any tips on how to properly negotiate the wall-jump off the tower that's necessary to complete Purple Coins In The Woods? Nothing I try seems to be enough to get onto that platform.

    I ended up forgetting about the wall-kick altogether.

    If you time your jumps right, you can triple jump from the raised platform to the launch star. Way easier.

  7. Huh... this thread hasn't been purged by the hands of time. That's weird.

    Anyway, new South Park tonight!

    1108 - Le Petit Tourette

    "Cartman discovers the joys of having Tourette’s syndrome. Drunk with the power of saying whatever he wants without getting in trouble for it, he lines up National TV Coverage to take advantage of his new life with no filters."

  8. ;267858']I wouldn't go so far to call it terrible' date=' but it was quite shallow...[/quote']

    Yeah, for sure.

    I had a lot of fun playing the game for the first couple days. And it was even more fun playing in tournaments with friends. But there's not a lot to the game... it wore out pretty quickly.

    Hopefully this new incarnation can get it right.
