Personally, I've been listening lately to the 2009 Warped Tour CD. I've found a lot of good bands off of the previous years' CDs, and it's a good opportunity for me to get reacquainted with some really good alt-rock.

Gerudo Valley--there is no other song from the entire Legend of Zelda series that I love quite as much as this one. Periodically, I spend the majority of a day seeking out new versions of the song to listen to, just to be able to listen to it some more. It's quite simply the finest Zelda song...

It'd be rough trying to organize a tourney for a game like Custom Robo. A ton of people no doubt have fond memories, but finding a proficient group of players willing to make a trek of any sort to play it would probably prove difficult. A rousing good time it would be if someone could make it...

This game looks--to toss around an overused phrase--absolutely hardcore. This game, along with some of the other recent entries, is really getting me excited about the Wii. It's been a while since I was really excited, but **** if it isn't a good time to own one.

QFT. *sits back patiently and bides time with previous Zeldas, waiting for next one*

What's wrong with being thirteen? I was thirteen once, and I turned out just fine. :D Remember, the Japanese view age differently as a society than Western nations do. Children are not necessarily sexual objects, even when scantily dressed. They're often valued more for the sheer cuteness...

Scorpions. They're the only creature with the ability to make me wake in a cold sweat.

Just watch them be the most be the most balanced characters in the game. "3 stock, Neutral Stages, Rabbids only" I can see it now... :D

I wouldn't write them off so soon. I haven't so much as touched this game, but experience with the Smash Bros franchise tells me it's not good to judge a character based solely on appearances. A character one person regards as worthless might be deadly in the hands of another.

The inclusion of Rabbids makes my day.

ZOMG! LIFE! What's been up 'round these parts?

*lights dim* I have a confession to make. It pains me to have to say this, but I can deny the fact no longer! No longer will I be ashamed of that which brings me happiness! I...love Harvest Moon games. There, I said it. But, alas, it's been a good while since one has really thrilled me. I...

I was incredibly addicted to the demo of the first Viva Pinata, so I went out and bought the second, and was subsequently horribly addicted to that. I then got my wife addicted to it, and she went and bought the DS version. It was a terrible downward spiral, really, but a colorful and...

1. Working console from every Nintendo generation (minus Virtual Boy). 2. Super Mario RPG 3. Final Fantasy VII black label and strategy guide 4. Hey You, Pikachu! Those would be the pieces of my collection that I'm proudest about. As for the individual games of my collection that are my...

That's comforting then. I didn't like the prospect of playing a fighting game I don't understand with a keyboard.
