I dunno about giving yourself "elf-style" ears.....especially if you're not getting any other of the other neat qualities that are usually attributed to elves (i.e. speed, graceful movements, thinner than human body frames, magic, attunement to nature, etc etc).

Oh, and as far as his comment about "no self-respecting twentysomething...blah blah blah", well, depends on what you want/like to play. If you're like me and like logic and puzzle games, you pretty much need to go Nintendo 'cause Sony's PSP (well, Sony and Microsoft in general) don't cater to that genre. If you…

...just a couple comments.

I dunno. Handhelds aside, all the previous main consoles Nintendo put out tend to be fairly-to-radically different from each other. Myself? Frankly, I haven't bought all that many Wii games, but the ones I do have really lends themselves to replay. I still play with the Wii Sports, Resort and Fit (and a couple…

...and just imagine this one. They already have battery problems with the slightly more tech-heavy 3DS (as opposed to their earlier handheld versions that is). Can you imagine how much more it'd cut into the battery/energy life if they slapped a phone onto it?

I don't play much on online games, but it seems to be tossed up between two things if you're talking a "right way/wrong way" thing. If you go into a game and find yourself enjoying yourself, your're probably playing the "right way" or right game. If you find it becoming a chore, your're probably playing the "wrong…

Myself? I don't really mind either one per se, but my preference is for being able to save at any point. A lot of the time when I'm playing a game, I'm in areas/situations where constant interruptions are likely to occur. I like being able to save the thing, close it down (to save battery 'cause I don't know how…

Well, I was looking around and found that the author of one of my fav sci-fi serials has a new book out, but the entry I found indicates a hardback. NOT going that way, don't have the $$ or the room on my shelves to spare for a hardback. I'm going to see if there's a paperback of Lois McMaster Bujold's new Vokosigan…

Y'know, I just had a thought. Maybe not right now as the tech is still fairly expensive, but I think it'd be neat if some future Nintendo handheld down the line had a solar battery as well as the regular one that their hand console uses now. Can you imagine being able to recharge the thing without having to plug in…

I love sci-fi/fantasy novels, but I really only real serials mostly. Far as the sci-fi stuff goes, there's 2 series that I really, really like. One is the Vorkosigan Saga by Lois McMaster Bujold. The other is by Alan Dean Foster, Flinx of the Commonwealth (or as I simply call them, the Flinx novels. I won't say…

My big thing is puzzle and logic games. I absolutely love Prof. Layton. Scribblenauts is fun. Matching games are good for aimless whiling away time. I think my favorites, though, are hidden object games. Haven't really tried De Blob yet. Might give it a try if/when I see it in a used game section and aren't…

I wouldn't call him a "hero", more a level Boss, plain out villian or at least main character. When did the dictionary definition of "hero" include theivery and pillaging?

Geez. Until I actually saw the footage, I thought it (that last one) was going to be Mario-esque and you actually had a costume that looked like a flying squirrel. That last one looks more like skydiving t'me. Might still get it. Thinking about it....

Hmmmm....Quite a few earthquakes in recent years. Might be a bit superstitious of me, but is someone up/out there trying to tell us something?

Watching ET (Entertainment Tonight). The talk? Charlie Sheen, his ranting and raving, and some of the terminology he was using. Had an amusing thought. So. Anyone think they've fought with, fought against or run across him in WoW?

Eh. Not so much that I'm such a huge fan of berries or anything, it just saves me from having to buy all those stat healers and leaves me more money to buy repels and super/hyper potions, and the more expensive high-level pokeballs.

I think there's probably room for both. I equate it with going to a fast food restaurant like McDonalds vs a 5-Star restaurant like Alexander's Steakhouse (in S.F.). Cheap eats vs hearty 7-course dinners.

I think....isn't that what happened over in Indonesia a number of years back? Earthquake followed by tsunami?

I think....isn't that what happened over in Indonesia a few years back? Earthquake followed by tsunami?

I think I might get this. Never played/got to play any of the older ones. But, the graphics have definitely got to be better. According to what I found on the original game, the thing came out in 1998...over 10 years ago. Even though I never played the original, I do hope that they added a few new spots to the…
