The roles of the two companies have definatly switched over the past few years. A lot of people hate on EA since they release a ton of sequels, but they've also released a ton of new franchises in the past few years. Activision on the other hand, are doing nothing but milking their same few franchises aswell as forcing out even more peripherals. In other words, Activision are the bad guys, not EA.

What does this have to do with Christians? Last time I checked, everyone felt bad when someone they know dies.

Fallout 3 was a dissapointment for me, so I would go with Borderlands.

The PS3 comes with RCA cables, so you'll be able to hook it up to any TV. If you ever plan on upgrading to an HDTV, then you'll have to buy an HDMI cable.

Modern Warfare 2 is easily the most overrated game that I've played this year. It's nowhere close to being a bad game, but it's definatly given way too much praise. The multiplayer is fun for awhile, but I got bored of it in less than a week. Also, the single player is way too short and uninteresting.

Seriously, if you want an FPS with great online and single player, then go play Resistance 2.

Mindless Self Indulgence
Daft Punk
Combichrist
Digitalism
Deadmau5
Justice

Those are the main bands that I listen to. There are some bands that I only like certain albums by them. For example, I like The Great Annihilator by Swans, but I don't care for their other albums.

It looks like an old PS2 game, and it's really a disappointment. I just can't stop thinking about all the flaws in the graphics.

I think you may want to get your eyes checked out...

This reminds me of Mario Kart Wii where they would take away from your score if you got disconnected. It seems like a good way to stop people from disconnecting when they're losing, but it causes more problems than it solves.

I've been playing it since it first came out and I finally beat it yesterday. Overall, the game was simply amazing. It really kept my interest and actually made me want to do all of the side-quests. I finished all of the assassin's tombs today and now I have Altaier's armour.

Also, I already have 91% of the game's trophies, which are all pretty easy to get with the exception of collecting all of the feathers.

The only game I'm really looking forward to is Final Fantasy XIII. I also want to try out Shin Megami Tesei: Strange Journey, but that's not something I'm guareteed to buy.

I hope Stopping Power's removed from MW3.

Not to mention that all of the guns in general are way too powerful. It's honestly not that interesting when a gun only takes a few shots to kill someone.

It's a good game, but it's definatly overrated. My main problem with it is that it gets boring very quickly. The campaign was too short and the multiplayer got boring after about a week. I'm glad that I only rented the game, especially since it costs more than most other games.

I'm sorry, but I would die of laughter if I ever saw someone wearing that in real life. Sure, Akira was a fucking awesome movie, but that doesn't stop that jacket from looking retarded.

I've been playing it for a few hours and so far it's been a really good game. I haven't played the first game, so I can't really make any comparisons. As far as I've read though, this game was a massive improvement over the original. I'm definatly looking forward to playing it more.

Yeah, Teletoon seems to show that a lot. It's nice to see that it's completely uncensored, unlike most American TV channels.

Ironically enough, as soon as I started watching Pretty Cure and started to like it, YTV decides not to show it. Fuck, i'd rather watch Pretty Cure in English with it's horrible English theme than watch Bleach or Naruto in any language.

It sucks that the only anime on TV is generic garbage. I really wish YTV would start showing some better series, then I woud actually have a reason to watch TV again.

Disney's live action movies have almost always been horrible, this isn't anything new or shocking.

First thing that I didn't like was the fact that you couldn't assign the trigger buttons to be used as the trigger. Unless we were missing something, I think this is pretty stupid. I'm a Xbox gamer by choice, so I'm used to using the triggers to shoot. It's not really that big an issue, but I'd prefer to use triggers to shoot.

I actually like the fact that they used the L1 and R1 buttons instead of the triggers. Sure, it may feel more like a real gun, but it's also a lot less comfortable to have to push them down frequently. You have a point though, there really isn't a reason for there not to be a way to customize every button on the controller.

This is my most anticipated game right now. Hopefully it will live up to the hype and be able to make up for the travesty that was Final Fantasy XII.

The story telling and character interaction is incredible, but the combat is somewhat boring. I thought it was a good game, but it would be much better if I could play the PC version instead due to its much better interface.

Has anyone else been having problems with the game's trophies? For some reason there isn't any trophy data on my console, making it impossible to get them. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Goodbye 1989
I wanna be the one in control
Rock my white shoes, polo tie
The next big thing for five years running

It's not your turn
It's not your turn yet

Back off you little shits
Gnawing at my fists
I see they breed you by the boatload

Back off you little whores
Get 'em on all fours
And let me beat you to the fucking punch

My body's not even cold
My act is just getting old

A new Persona game would be nice. They already made a remake of the first and third for the PSP, but I would like to see a full sequel on the PS3.

This makes me glad that I live in Canada where nothing gets banned.

My sister has been hit by a drunk driver, but she wasn't injured. All I can say is that I hope I never get into an accident.

Damn, that's a cool vodka bottle. That's even cooler than the Absolute Disco bottle.

A bunch of kids at my school were suspended for five days for kicking gingers on "Kick a Ginger Day". Apparently they considered it a hate-crime to kick gingers, which is a bit over the top.

There are a few people at my school who are going to stay home, but I'm going to school because I have a life.

I'm proud to say that I don't fall into any category. Normally I would say I'm a non-conformist, but then I would sound like an emo kid.

Supposedly the IGN score got leaked.

IGN Modern Warfare 2- 9.5
IGN Modern Warfare - 9.4

IGN confirms that the screenshots of that "review" are fake.

Majority of the enemies in Demon's Souls since they can easily kill you in very few hits.
