Good point... although not many GC games are particularly noteworthy in my opinion. SSBM is the only I can think of right now. XD
Timesplitters, Ikaruga, Killer 7, Rogue Squadron 2 and 3, Wind Waker,  DK: Jungle Beat, Double Dash, Between Good and Evil, Super Monkey Ball, Super Mario Sunshine.

Pretty damn solid set of games.

Upgrade the wheels, maybe.
Why? It looks invertible to me
I dunno.

Remember that all wheels have the same grip value in stock, Nate.

Call of Duty 4 is an exception

Good campaign + good multiplayer = good game
I don't see how Multiplayer can even compare to the single player experience. Limited maps, few obectives and repetitive matches vs ever differing environments, changing missions and a new experience each level.
Simple, you're pwning real people instead of bots, thus it's a better test of your skills, and the experience is different every time.
Because of course "pwning" makes a game great.

Just no. Having atmosphere, good controls, a unique playing experience and many other factors are more important than pwning things. It's almost as though your only referring to FPS single player, because that's the only situation I really pwn anything (other than sending bots flying up in the air and havoking in Oblivion).

Alos, if Online is really going to be used, why not have an original format rather than the usual "kill your buddies, take the command points" sort of approach used only too often? Playing a genuinely diverse set of ideas like a boss rush, or exploration game would be good.

Call of Duty 4 is an exception

Good campaign + good multiplayer = good game
It is good, but it definitely isn't unique or experimental.

I have no problem with you not playing multiplayer, but not having online on a console and a game is taking away part of the experience that is given to you.
Nothing there says that it is necessarily a good experience :coolface.

MNB sums it up best. I don't dislike online but I'm a single player gamer.

Okay, but what makes Online better than Split Screen, other than the availability of players? I simply can't see why online is such a big thing, considering all the lag and so on involved.

So that is the reason why playing online increases the entire longevity of the game.

Seeing as though most good games have some sort of a multiplayer experience, not having online is taking away half of the game.

So if you don't have PSN on the PS3, you are not getting the full experience.
So if I was a Bethesda fan and played Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, Skyrim, and Fallout 3, would I be missing the full experience?

I'm not sure if you noticed, but playing with real friends which you actually know is quite fun. Nothing like so good old split screen for Goldeneye.

Also, what if a game is entirely single polayer oriented? I'm not sure if you noticed, but many of the very best games of all time aren't multi-player at all. KOTOR, Half-Life 2, Metroid Prime, none of them have multi player.

Completely random topic: How many people here know that it's Spirit Day today?
Gaddafi's spirit shall not be going to heaven.
Is it something to do with Scorpio/Libra?
Nope, it's to do with supporting LGBT youth. I plan to draw a picture relating to it, though I doubt I'll be finished on time

People complain that other people cheat when they lose. Me, if I notice somebody using the same move constantly, I will be pissed off when I lose, if I see somebody jump in and do an awesome combo, I will applaud them (literally as well, even though they won't hear it). Something tells me that if I switch to Pro on SSFIV3D then I will get better players, rather than the ones who play Guile and then spam Flash Kick L and Sonic Boom L via touch screen controls. Although spamming them back is rather satisfying, if only to see them ragequit, sometimes even mid-game. So, were you spamming the exact same move (or couple of moves), or did you combo (that was the main reason I quoted, I just tangented)? I remember playing Blade of Fate, I was pretty good with Byakuya actually.
I don't believe in button smashing, I do super-awesome megacombos 8D

My favourite character to play as online is Soi Fon. Homonka the enemy twice and they die 8D
Yoruichi's also good to play, because of Blue Ability D
Generally on Dark Souls I play Izuru because you can get really, really long combos as his shunpo distance is really small. Plus he's pretty okay at countering. Either that or I play Hisagi for the same reason. Toshiro and Zaraki were also old favorites.

Yes, I bought that game. That was when I wasn't fed up with how ridiculously long they made Bleach.

How can I fix what I started?

step 1, stop talking about it.

It's always on my mind!
And why does that mean you have to tell us? We already know, just like that time when we pratted around about US and UK robots.

Yes. Just running a pedal through your Line 6 would sound bad, as the clipping and dynamics would be different to your amp.

This has a good tone despite the utter lack of bass guitar. Compare it to a decent quality distortion pedal and this will destroy it.

This is a higher end model that I really like, but the 333 is still a great amp for the price.

Also how do I know if my neck is too bent? (guessing it's a noob question.)
Generally just looking down the neck to see what angle it is in comparison to the body, or:

Use the method covered in the later half of this vid.
My truss rod doesn't have a "slot" for an alan key or screwdriver.
Usually there's some sort of cover you have to remove.

Nah, Line 6's suck. Unlike your guitar they aren't customizable and are infamously rubbish. Ask politely and calmly explain and hope your convincing voice works.

Also, a great amp is far more key to your sound than a great guitar. I could play a Crafter Cruiser through an ENGL Fireball and it would sound awesome.

This is a pretty good song. Definitely not my favorite on RIP, since the title track, Five Magics and Take No Prisoners are on it.

No. That it gets blown out of proportions.
And saying that she shouldn't be here if she is more active in off topic isn't blown out of proportion.
I think you might be correct on that one. If a bot is posted in a showcase, then usually you get tips on how to make it more comat efficient, or how to make it more aesthetically pleasing if it's an IRL bot. I can't see any reason why she would post bots if she doesn't want that.

Y'know, for a relative newcomer, you do seem to have a good deal of reasoning and rationality. I like you. =)
I have to agree. Chaos is a pretty cool dude, and I like the way he posts.
