Hmm, the reedited versions. I wish they would include the originally aired episodes.


Just be glad you're not getting the "Nazi bounty-hunter shoots first" edit... I can't tell you how loud I yelled "DIE!!" when I saw the newly released OOT on the special features disc this past year when Greedo went down the way he originally did. Thankfully it doesn't appear they're messing with these eps.

There is nothing quite like beating an arcade game with your friends when you are a kid. It is more than just a challenge, it is your savings. The feeling of victory when you reach the end is unexplainable. And that disheartening feeling of defeat as the "continue?" timer counts down and none of you have any quarters left...


Awww, C3 you nailed it right on the head. That "continue?" sign was so depressing, frustrating, heartbreaking, and maddening at the same time. I can't tell you how many times I either wanted to cry or put my fist through the display when that popped up.

Anyone ever play a game called Barbarian for the Commodore pc platform? It was single-screen sidescroller (played on only one screen at a time) where you fought with swords against warriors and then eventually got to a fireball throwing wizard. I was SO close to defeating the wizard. My sword was ON THE WAY to delivering the final stroke when he nailed me with the damn fireball. Classic.

I was shocked by the quality of the graphics of RE4...especially the water and fish! Nice to see the "little console that could" is capable of producing top notch stuff like that...with almost no load time.

I'm still getting plenty of use from my GC. We've got the Wii hooked up on our main set in the living room, so at night when my old lady's watching Law and Order I go continue questing up stairs. It's a perfect little spare console!

Resident Evil 4 - Uhhhh, quite possibly the closest to gaming perfection I've ever seen. Truly terrifying experience combined with great graphics and intuitive game play. No idea how far along I am (I'm fighting my way up a hill near a cemetary to get into a church), but I hope there's LOTS more. I'm wondering if CapCom is preparing a game for the Wii?

Also, have you guys noticed an upswing in games being advertised for the PS2? I wonder if they're having such a shortfall from the PS3 that they're trying to save themselves...
