I enjoy cad as well. It's not my favorite, but I check it every day a new comic appears.

As for the shirt, yeah, I totally like it. How did you make it?

Back when I redesigned my avatar several years ago, I drew over the official pic of Game & Watch (from the old Melee website that's not around anymore) in vector, which I still have (http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g295/IG-64_photos/hugeMrGW.png). It allowed me to use that.

I also got a Christmas ornament of the same thing.

Also note, I didn't put the sabers on there for various reasons.

My short review: Not their best cd by far, but definately up there in my opinion. And I'm not even talking about it being better than St. Anger, cause frankly being better than St. Anger is like being bettar at tennis than a quadriplegic.

I don't know much about Metallica, but I've heard around a dozen of their songs on multiple occasions, and as far as I can tell, there is good songs (Ride the Lightning, Blackened, Fuel, Battery, One, ...And Justice for All, Enter Sandman, Fight Fire with Fire etc.) then there is "everything else" - except for the few gems that I named previously, it all sounds the same.

Off topic, but this really is not worth a separate thread, but is it just me, or is the Wii a waste of money? I've got one and I never play it anymore, I did play some RE4 and Okami some bit, but that hardly counts.

So then I see this new article on Digg... 21 upcoming Wii games to drool over (http://www.gamepro.com/article/features/206400/21-upcoming-wii-games-to-drool-over/), here is my consensus on the list:

(Now, what I did the first time was just yell out "bullsh*t" at the proper games at my computer screen


21. Wii Music - Bullsh*t, I've heard about that, it's super gimmicky and only 12 year olds will enjoy it enough. Just like WiiFit, seems like a cool idea, ends up blowing donkey **** in the end.

20. RedSteel 2 - Bullsh*t, Red Steel sucked the first time, probably gonna suck the second time.

19. The Force Unleashed - Bullsh*t, if you don't have a PS3 or 360, you really shouldn't be that excited.

18. Samba de Amigo - It's f*cking Sega, have they released a single good game in the last 3 years?

17. Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels - Yeah, without proper controls for yer lightsaber, this is probably gonna suck.

16. Call of Duty: World at War - Bullsh*t, can't wait for the crippled graphics and framerate and goofy controllers and no multiplayer.

15. Animal Crossing: City Folk - Right, just like the first but allows you to talk with only people you know, and if you both have the same game, and the same potentially overpriced piece of plastic... while Xbox 360 and PS3 have had voice chat standard for more than 2-3 years.

14. Castlevania Judgment - I read a preview and it basically said it was a bad fighting game and not much more... yeah.

13. No More Heroes 2 - Bullsh*t, it's not even confirmed or even talked about, wasn't this game a financial flop? Mediocre, too.

12. Wii Sports Resort - Great, $50 for 3 hours of fun... just great.

11. Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop - 50 zombies at a time, horrible scaled graphics, thanks but no thanks, I played this game already... two years ago.

10. Mario Super Sluggers - I'm sure it'll be a fine game, but do I want it? No, not really, no.

09. Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World - Toss up, I have no idea.

08. Deadly Creatures - Again. No idea.

07. Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers - Hahahahahaha.... oh man, that has "sh*t" written all over it.

06. Fatal Frame IV - It got a good review in Famitsu, but we all know the ratings in that magazine are bullsh*t 90% of the time. But again, no idea.

05. The Conduit - Wow... that looks... really bad.

04. de Blob - No idea.

03. Mega Man 9 - Bullsh*t, unless you're over 25 years old and really like Mega Man... does a return to roots mean anything to a series that has been done over and over so many times that it's completely bull**** by now? Mega Man 9? More like Mega Man 111 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Mega_Man_games)

02. Wario Land: Shake It! - No idea, first party Nintendo game? Sure, just hope it's not a pile of piss like Paper Mario 3 kinda was.

01. MadWorld - Yeah, unique and all, but it looks really shallow and ugly artistically and intellectually. The most violent beat-em up ever? It's like a retarded South Park episode meets Manhunt with Sin City graphics... Gross. If this was a 360 or PS3 game, no one would care.


I'm sorta wondering if anyone is gonna bite my head off for my opinion or agree with me... the Wii is just damn disapointing and there's nothing coming out for it now, no Super Mario, no Zelda, no Metroid... blarg.

My short review: Not their best cd by far, but definately up there in my opinion. And I'm not even talking about it being better than St. Anger, cause frankly being better than St. Anger is like being bettar at tennis than a quadriplegic. Agreed. It's not that they've done anything particularly worthwhile since the 80s anyways.

Sometimes subtlety isn't the best method for dealing with people. Having said that, Great Scott - you fail.

Now good stuff: I picked up Madden '09 and while it makes me want to punch a baby every 3 minutes, I still quite enjoy it. More good stuff: I'm getting TFU for free. Cheers to that.

Hah, that would just backfire if it was made by *Generic Evil Company* and they just made them not work, it'd hurt sales because no one would buy a second set of guitars just to play the new version. Also, the full bundle isn't even out yet, you can buy separate instruments, but it's really just the software going solo.

Got these for cheap with the last of my Amazon giftcard.


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v123/Tie23/B4Z00001.jpg)
I was tired of having to leave my controllers plugged into my 360 overnight to maybe get them charged fully. So this is nice, being able to fully charge a battery in about 90 minutes. It's usually $30 new, got it for $23, just barely breaking my mental price barrier of $25.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v123/Tie23/M17-1704-main.jpg)
This is pretty much a discontinued mouse that we used to have on my other computer until someone spilled soda all over it, so that got trashed and replaced by a really ****ty new mouse. So I bought a refurb one of these for less than $14 and it's great. The wheel is soft and clicky and it feels great. It's replacing my old non-should button version which is getting a little worn down. I really like this mouse. : )

Edit:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v123/Tie23/30153_CrysisWarheadBoxCrop.jpg)
Funny, my bro and I were out doing some stuff and we decided to go look for Crysis Warhead today. Circuit City had it for $25, but disappointingly didn't have it in stock. Other store searches online later yielded similar results. I knew it was coming out on Steam, but I though it was going to be delayed a few days, but instead I check and there it is on opening day. So this is my second large Steam purchase in the last few days. Luckily my bro got excited about this game too and played though all of the first Crysis in the last three days. So I can make him pay for half, so that's good.

Also, I'm going to go and see Jaime Hyneman and Adam Savage from Mythbusters on October 5th in Seattle. Can't freakin wait... only cost $110.00 for two tickets though... blarg... But yay! :V Got dem tickets (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v123/Tie23/MahTickets.jpg).

OH NOES I'VE BEEN MADE OUT! Yes, I work for Microsoft and I've been going to this forums for the last six and a half years just to get you all to buy Microsoft products. Vista, 360, little peripherals that have been discontinued, all of it, I've been working for them all along. But I fooled you Anthony, didn't I? AH HA! BUT YOU'LL NEVER GET ME! HAHAHAHAHAH!

*Pulls out German Luger, places under chin*

But yeah, that mouse is nice. The new MS mice all have really heavy and non-clicking wheels and are really hard to middle click with them. It's a real minimalist mouse that just feels right and works fine.

I too had that mouse for a while. I got it from my computer teacher just because she liked me and I asked if they had any mice I could have, and she had just gotten a laser one so she gave me that one for free. Used it for a good year until I won the Fatal1ty one.
