Metool: I'm... flattered, or I would be until I was bleeding at your side.

rank the following: Super Smash Brothers Melee, Super Mario World, Ikaruga, Super Metroid, Final Fantasy VII, Contra, Dance Dance Revolution

CrimsonOcean: fighting game fan, eh? which are your faves?

SSS: would you be opposed to a DROP THE R AND BACK AWAY! sig?

Icehawk: do you realize that, with the way you vehemently defend the 360 even when it doesn't need defending, you're harvesting your own "indie cred"?

Janus: do you just coincidentally like all the "board 8 fad" games the most, or do you like other games more than those? name them!

David Xanatos: what's your main / original account? and who are you imitating, because I don't recognize the name?

oli: so, do you like movie soundtracks? which are your faves?

then why would you hype a game as being the best ever when it wasn't even out? that's bias towards a game you haven't even played! or are you telling me you'd do the same with another game/series? name it!

Well, there aren't many games that get as much recognition as Twilight Princess (note to Nintendo: don't call something "by far the best Zelda game" unless it is). So it's different for that sort of game: four years of development, claimed to be one of the best games ever by people who had played it (as I mentioned earlier, the reviews), absolutely stunning trailers, etc. resulted in an absurd amount of hype inside me, and I'm the type of person who generally doesn't think much of hype either (but I also have the obscure opinion that hype is usually a good thing....yeah, I'll explain if I must). Really, I don't think there's ever been another game I could say all that for.

Another game series I could say the same for? Well, not really, but Metroid Prime 3 is my most anticipated title right now, and ever since I saw that minute long trailer, I get the feeling it may end up as one of my favorite games ever. Of course, after what happened with Twilight Princess, I'm trying to keep myself as rational as I can.

Oh, and I wasn't necessarily saying that I thought Twilight Princess was going to be the best game ever anyway, I was just stating that trailer video amazed me so much, I thought it was unlikely for it to be anything but my favorite game ever.

But what was this argument you speak of about?

neon: so would you consider yourself a "graphics whore"? and do you think this is necessarily a bad thing?

CPU: okay, nevermind. :) rank these: baseball, football, basketball, hockey, connect four.

Mega Mana: that's.. amazing. I always hear good things about the wire, maybe I'll download it.

pick one: a ninja in pirate gear or a pirate in ninja getup. explain why, as well!

DSRage: that's awesome. as a person who's never played Pokemon, which one should I start with?

andymancan: what would you miss more, an arm or a leg?

Steiner: do you like quiet, ambient music?

Xtremeblur: nope, it wasn't on youtube so I didn't bother clicking on it. I imagine Metroid Prime 3 looks like 1 and 2, neither of which are really my thing despite most people thinking of me as a Metroid superfan.

name me five games you really like on the PS2.

Aside from KD and PW, I can't really think of many other 'fad' games I like... though aside from those two, I can't really think of any 'fad' games at all. Of course there are some other games I like - ITG and GH aren't really fad games here (well, depending on your definition, maybe GH is, but not to the extent KD and PW were, and it doesn't exactly have the fad potential of the King or OBJECTION!), for instance. There are a few games I like more than PW/GH(II)/W<3K - ITG2 would be one of those, and then there's Worms Armageddon. There are others I enjoy a lot too - SSBM, Starcraft, Disgaea, Skies, FFIV, CT, and some others - though I'm not sure if I like them more than PW or W<3K - I don't think any game's ever made me laugh as hard as PW, and W<3K has a lot of things I prefer over the original even if the music can't compare. As for KD being at the top of my list... it's probably a coincidence, and as I said, I haven't played it in a while. Though it would probably still be one of my favorite games even if it wasn't as fun because it still has the King of all Cosmos and one of my favorite soundtracks.

Hmmm.

I'd probably troll the projects/contests/etc...

I'd act as obnoxious and biased as possible, before getting the hell flamed out of me and most likely banned from voting/participating by the creator. After that I'd probably just make a general ass of myself in those topics.

Not creative, but meh. =P

SuperJanitor: what's with the mass bumping? what about it appeals to you? (and are you still doing it? I can't say I've seen any, but I also block a lot of board 8 out)

mnm: how's the DOD?

"Steiner: do you like quiet, ambient music?"

Opeth - Damnation is one of my favourite albums. Would Tool - Wings for Marie / 10,000 Days count? >_> I like it when bands do quiet, ambient stuff but I wouldn't go out of my way to download stuff that was entirely quiet and ambient, I suppose.

Uh, ok. Only five games? That's easy.

MGS 2 and 3 - Substance and Subsistence to be specific, some of the best games around.
FFX - I'm playing it right now actually, along with FFV Advance; I'll hopefully get FFIII and FFXII after I'm done playing these two.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - Not really big on the GTA series, but this is probably one of the best games of last generation; amazing title.
Shadow of the Colossus - Awesome concept, awesome game, not quite as amazing as some people would have you believe though.

I always thought it was just keeping a topic bumped for a long period of time. Well, I guess there's that and then there's filling an entire topic up with posts like I have done a few times in the past. It was just somethin to do. I copied Pleinair by keeping topics bumped for as long as I could, but quickly got frustrated by how quickly they purged and decided it wasn't worth my time. I stopped posting as much as I did, I used to hover around 1000 active posts, not it's about 100-200.

Kleenex: hmm, fair enough.

random question - would you like video game music nearly as much if it wasn't in a video game?

Brak: top ten albums, stat!

choco: FFX is pretty Yunacentric too! if you like fast gameplay, why do you play RPGs?

Vlado: SMS was my first Sega system, but I'm too young to really remember most of the games I played. well, besides Astro Warrior, that game is badass. well, and Walter Payton football.

how do you feel about your e-girlfriend having a sexual fetish for furry animals? does it make you feel awkward? does it affect you at all?

(if this is too personal, you can tell me and I'll ask another)

SpikeDragon: cause you act like an alt!

favourite number?

meisnewbie: pennyroyal tea, eh? should I be embarassed that the first thing that came to mind was Nirvana?

Dabu: sufficient for me! I wish you'd post more, I love reading your little tidbits, even if I have utterly nothing to add to them. (what's up, Warcraft balance!)

what about this board makes you not "identify" with it? its age, interests, behaviour, your status as a moderator, something else?

kbmusiclover: for a user with musiclover in their name, I've never seen you talk about music. top 5 bands?
