Not as funny as mine, They put the wrong possessor in my PC (see 2 posts up), I ordered a AMD64 3800+ but got a AMD 64 X2 3800+.

Talk to the MODS
The red curtain is pulled aside, we see a little short green man with small elves controlling an innumerable amount of puppets
"you..." TiE stammers
"yes... me me me" replies the man
"y..y... you're all the same people?"
"Believe it"
TiE wakes up several hours later in a daze.

Good graphics. Kind of a steep learning curve on the controls, sort of necessary to complete the tutorial levels just to keep your head above water....HAHA! Get it? I made a funneh. Seems pretty fun if I just stick with it for a while. At first sit down, I managed to sink or be destroyed in everything I flew or sailed in. Again...need to spend more time with it.

I played the demo, and while the learning curve wasn't too bad(pretty much just obey the laws of physics and you're fine...) there was way too much downtime because it's just too slow to get anywhere. It'd take me five minute to get to an enemy ship on my torpedo planes, only to then have to take 10 minutes more going back and refueling at base. Thankfully they did give you two other plane squads to work with, but it was still fairly boring.

I had a $75 Wal-Mart store credit, that I was dying to burn up.
Creative Zen V 1GB, right now I have 7 CDs at 84 tracks stored on there. I love it.
And some new tracks to go along with it:

Velvet Acid Christ: Lust for Blood

Wumpscut: Cannibal Anthem

My mom and dad both have the same things. I think they're cool, but 1 gig feels cramped compared to my 30 gig Vision M.

I have a 30 gig as well, but I NEVER listen to that much stuff at once, and I hardly use it. I like this one because it is smaller and super light weight. 6-7 CDs worth is plenty enough for me.

If you ever wanted to hear something beautiful, this is it. This is IT.
I was keeping track of this movie because I really, really loved Requiem's soundtrack, and Clint Mansell was doing his thing on this one too. Everyone likes Lux Aeterna, right? Now just imagine that kind of quality on EVERY SINGLE TRACK. Ye gods.
And the movie wasn't in any of the theatres near me when it came out, so I have to wait at until MAY to watch it. MAY!? I'm about to die. There is no justice. The best film score I've heard in literal ages, and I didn't even get to see the film!

That's a beautiful soundtrack, and the movie is quite an experience.

The film was fantastic. Though, I have yet to see Infernal Affairs, In which, the idea of the film came from.

I'm not big on the remakes either. But, I've looked around for the Infernal Affairs movie and the trilogy. But, have found nothing. So, I might just try and buy it online.
I didn't get anything extra with me DVD though. Since I bought it at an "HMV". If I bought it at Future Shop, I would have gotten a Steelbook Case.

Nice. One of my friends got one on Valentines Day as well.
I want to get Wario Ware, so I'll recommend that. I only have Zelda right now.

Nice, pickup. Nice to see more people acquire and find the Wiis.
I can't really suggest a game. Just I wouldn't suggested buying Red Steel.

I got Zelda: A Link To The Past on the Wii Virtual Console
The only thing I don't like is that you can only buy points in 1000 point increments. That means I now have 200 points left over, and can't use them on anything...yet...

This game is sick fun. Think GTA with super human powers. Kind of reminds me of Hulk ultimate destruction, only on a very, very large playground. The co-op adds miles to the fun.

Very good!

Got it on the cheap for $10. I liked the demo but was never really willing to pay out 5 times that for the full game.
Oh yes, almost forgot:

Back when my iRiver H10's audio jack went belly up my friend at school Joe told me he'd keep an eye out for anyone selling mp3 players on the cheap for me, and his friend (and as I later found out my friend) was selling his basically brand new iPod nano 2gb for 50 bucks. I had 20, and borrowed 30 from my mom, and I once more have an mp3 player.
Only good thing to happen to me all day
