I loved that commercial too.

I wish I could play the games I come up with in my head.
It would take a while to describe my plans for 'American Citizens'

I'm too hungry to type anything long.

It would be something like a GTA style city, done in GTA style rather than the cheap imitations used in True Crime and Getaway. Your characters main controls would be sort of GTA esque, but you could get strong, jump high, level up, and eventually learn ki flight. The story is just a bunch of weirdness:

It so happens that Clinton, Edwards, Kerry, and Gorbachev are really aliens that crashed on earth 1000 years ago and have lost the key to the spaceship that went down in Syberia. The other crashed underneath what is now Ridgecrest, so the aliens try to take over the world long enough to ban organized religion so they can demolish Ridgecrest and dig there for their ship.

Thier greatest piece of technology is the "plot hole generator", which tears the boundries between fiction and reality. It is finnaly activated in 1985 when the game starts. You customize your character down to the pitch and octave of his or her voice, and can even design your girlfriend or boyfriend, who eventually becomes a ninja. THe gameplay has all kinds of variety, including a fighting game that combines three fighting styles as in MK, good mechanics such as in VF4, and weapon fighting on par with Soul Caliber.

But in the meantime, when you are not trying to stop Gorbachev, (he's the oldest and the mastermind) you do all kinds of weird stuff, including fighting demons, rescuing your girlfirends parents from evil ninja's, ect ect. As the game goes on, the lines between fact and fiction begin to blur, giving you acess to more and more fantastical abilities, such as enrgy attacks.

Plus you get to fight and kill Marylin Manson, which is a good thing. He transforms into a giant demon appropriately called "the Antagonist"

Hey, I think you need to pitch this idea to EA or Ubisoft.

I was gonna get/rent Celebrity Deathmatch just to kill 'him' except that it sucked.

Yeah, that game was one big steaming pile of suck.

I wanted to rip my own heart out instead of a celebrity's after playing that game.

That bad, huh? I hope you didn't pay to see how awful it was.

Nah, it was on one of the consoles at Best Buy.

You felt like ripping your heart out after playing it on a Best Buy Kiosk. For free.

I can't imagine how terrible that is. I suppose you think Gamespot's score was generous.

I didn't look at it until now, damn thats a high score.

Well now that the bottom of the barrel was established by Big Rigs, I guess they have to give games that generally work a higher score.

Hey! The DS finally has a new game!

It is Zoo Keeper. GS gave it a 7.8, so I guess it's pretty good.

My opinion: RE4 is the best GC game to date. That is all.

It's not my favorite game ever, but last night I was playing it, and the scenario was so intense I had a hard time winding down and going to sleep. It's one of those games that gets better as you go along. The more I play it, the more in awe I am of it. Plus, it's much deeper and longer than I thought it was going to be. I haven't beat it yet, but this game, to me, is the best GC game yet.
