GameCube version of course. It's bloody strange, strange style, strange controls, strange everything... I love it  This is one of those games where the rating on the box actually MEANS something lol. I'm using mostly Kaede and Dan at the moment... should really boost the stats of the other personalities too XD
So love this game, the remake and extension of the first Metroid game released on the NES. It's not as good as Super Metroid but it is much better than Metroid Fusion. I've actually played and finished this game multiple times over without actually buying it  but here I am buying it now lol. I got this second hand so some nice guy before me unlocked all of the gallery pics and the original version of Metroid already unlocked LOL.

Well the vid card I ordered from TiE, it got here a couple of weeks ago, but due to some shipping problems, I wasn't able to fix it until today.
I went from barely being able to run Halo PC ( 640 x 480, everything ether off or low, and it still lagged a good 20 percent of the time ), to running it at full everything, at 1280 x 800, with almost no lag. Hopefully once I get more RAM there will be no lag.
I have yet to test it with any other game. But I'll be sure to post the leap it makes in HL2.

You guys be careful, those energy drinks can be dangerous! Especially if you're trying to quench your thirst in the summer heat (athletes and workers beware). Caffiene (like alcohol) acts as a diuretic, which means you can even DIE if you're not careful. Not that this will happen to you, but just watch it. I know some student athletes have died from heat stroke/dehydration, though I don't know if caffenated beverages were involved, it can't help in any case. It doesn't help that some of them are marketed as "stay up all night long/perform better" which is complete crap.
When I worked for Dr. Pepper I got to sample all the different ones they had (most tasted horrible, but one or two were decent). The extra caffiene gives me a major headache though when it wears off.
Anyway, not to preach, but I've been there man! Especially if you have it on an empty stomach (arggh) first thing in the morning before taking a brisk walk across town. Your heart is racing, your sweat drying up. The problem is with hot coffee you sip it, so I guess you get the caffiene more slowly rather than all at once in a big gulp of sugar.
Ah it'll be great when finals are over and I'll have time for games again...

And so I have become hooked...
"Take my love.
Take my land.
Take me where I cannot stand.
I don’t care, I’m still free.
You can’t take the sky from me.
Take me out
to the black.
Tell ‘em I ain’t comin’ back.
Burn the land and boil the sea.
You can’t take the sky from me.
Have no place
I can be
Since I found Serenity.
But you can’t take the sky from me."

 I got a bunch of kickass plastic leis at a luau party last night.

"A few times in my life I've had moments of absolute clarity. When for a few brief seconds, the silence drowns out the noise and I can feel rather than think, and things seem so sharp and the world seems so fresh. I can never make these moments last. I cling to them, but like everything, they fade. I've lived my life on these moments. They pull me back to the present and I realize that everything is exactly the way it was meant to be."

My brother just randomly bought this despite never playing FFVII and only playing FFX 4 years ago. Action and stuff is pretty cool, but everything confused the hell out of me.

Talk about a close shave. 
And Shepherds we shall be
For thee, my Lord, for thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand
Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee
And teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Spiritus Sancti.

I just started with a pure straight edge, and have been pretty impressed. Way less pull and irritation than any gillette I ever tried, I got setup basically for life for under $100, and hey, without a little danger, what fun would life be? :P

Yeah, they've given him a new costume for the past 3 or so issues... I don't know whether I like it or not. It looks cool, but you just can't replace the original outfit.

Got this a couple of weeks ago because the old blade was finally done for and it seems to be doing alright. I am averaging 2 points a night with it (knock on wood). Hopefully it will continue working out because my team is in the Championship this upcoming Monday.
No amount of Firelfy will ever be enough.

Just got this:

I had gotten a blue one for Christmas but wanted to get the red one, and they just now got them in stock. Rediculous, but I'm glad I got it. Well, that's not the one I got, I got #32 (Hamilton), but they didn't have a picture of it.
