Re: Movies of '08

Saw the Hulk and The Happening in the last few days. The Happening was an interesting premise but the execution was lackluster (it got really stale after the first hour)

I really liked the Hulk, I thought Norton was spectacular in the role.

Re: The World Ends With You may be the best DS game yet.

What's the purpose of giving you different characters if they can all potentially do the same thing? Well there are the Limit Breaks, but yeah that is a completely valid point. However, on the flip side it means not having to deal with characters you are annoyed with *cough* YuffieandCaitSith *coug...

Re: The World Ends With You may be the best DS game yet.

FFVII revolutionized the RPG genre... only to those who never played an RPG prior. Which is exactly the reason why the game was so popular, because it was the very first JRPG for a huge number of people. Overall, it's pretty mediocre. Bingo. The only worthwhile thing that came out of VII was the Ma...

Not to sound like a jackass (Okay, maybe a little) but when has any movie EVER fully lived up to the hype that people have for it? Indy 4 did almost exactly what I expected and there was only one real scene I though was bullshit, which was [spoiler]Shia LeBoef as the KING OF THE MONKEYS![/spoiler].

I really wish that some company like Rockstar or Square-Enix would create a dummy development company that wasn't linked to them officially and release games to see which people like more, the game or the name on the box.
