Video Games - a general discussion thread

Well, as I have said before, I have not owned a console since my high school and college years, which were back in the N64 era. My buddy is going to buy a PS3 (yuck!) in the coming months, and is giving me his PS2. So I was looking at the store the other day at the PS2 games and trying to decide what games to get. I think for starters I will grab two games, once I beat them I will probably pick up a few more.

I am really thinking Resident Evil 4, it just looks awesome and I heard it is fantastic. While skimming through the games I also saw Shadow of Collossus and judging the book by its cover (front and back) it looks very impressive, though I have not read any reviews on it yet. I really wanted to play Half-Life 2, so I was very disappointed when I saw that they skipped a PS2 port and went directly to PS3.

So, any suggestions on some must have PS2 games with good reply value?


I've played Metal Gear Solid 2 at least 20-30 times. GTA series is fun too. Also Katamari Damacy.

Colony Collapse - Why are the bees dying and what is the impact?
Time
It WILL happen unfortunately. Electromagnetic Pulse Bombs are already a fact and, if set off, could render all electronics useless, very scary thought. Imagine being at work when suddenly you hear an explosion and then everything goes out, no lights, no computer, no phones, no modern cars, no nothing. It would make getting home a whole new adventure and you'd be trying to the get there wondering the whole time if your family is okay, because they couldn't tell you except by letter. Very scary to me.


That would make a good story.

He killed her, cut off her hands and head, and then proceeded to have sex with her throat. He was caught, tried, convicted, and finally put to death. However, nobody knows where that girls head and hands are to this day, he would not tell even has be laid strapped to that table. I looked at this guy more than a few times in the eyes, he had no soul, regret, or remorse and he would have done it again if given the chance. All the cops in the city where he lived new he would kill somebody someday and he was suspect number one when it happened. He was caught several times riding around with dead cats, dogs, other animals in his car. He was also caught having sex with a dead cows decapitated neck. They said that he grow up to be a murderer when he was 8 years old. So again, I believe true evil exists.


Thanks for the good story

Younger brother expelled from school for being "asian and quiet"
Time
My 16 year old, half Japanese brother, Joshua, was just expelled from high school in a small Arkansas town.

Apparently, someone took offense to a shirt he wore before the VT killings with "4 out of the 5 voices in my head tell me to go for it" on the front, and complained to the office about him being "asian and quiet". Exact words.

The school contacted the police, the police and principal called him to their office along with my mother to arrest him/interrogate him, and they let loose their most damning evidence: His myspace had anime killing of indiscriminate aliens. With lasers. (No idea what anime it is, I don't watch the poo poo).

My mother and he were completely baffled/shocked at what the hell was going on, so they were completely cooperative. He logged onto his myspace/email accounts to show them everything they wanted to see.

A serious Ice Burn into the interrogation was:

Detective: (To my mother) Why does Josh dye his hair black?
Mother: He doesn't.
Detective: That's not your hair color, yours is brown.
Mother: He's half Japanese...
Detective: So?
Mother: That's their natural hair color....
Detective: Oh.



The cops wanted to come to our house and search the place immediately, at least my mother had good sense enough not to let that happen. So they asked the school if it was pressing charges, the principal said they hadn't decided yet, and the detective was really trying to force the principal into it so he could get a search warrant.

Finally the principal said he had no choice but to expel him (way to cave in to pressure, pal), so they left, with the detective saying they'll "be out to our house soon".

I'm furiously deleting MP3s in the meantime, she's already trying to get ahold of the ACLU.


Interesting if true.

Who the hell are these people to call themselves experts?

Whoa! These guys need to get out more! Do they even know what "legion" means? Doesn't even make much sense in the way they use it.


I think the "We are legion" is taken from the God-awful "Ghost Rider" movie, in which at the end, the evil villain formed from thousands of dead souls, screams "We are legion, FOR WE ARE MAAAAAAANYYYYYYYY!"


It was around before that.
