My Friend's Ramblings

With words like chan, san, kun...is the "n" sound at the end silent?? Or just very faint? 

I found this bouncing around the web and thought I'd share. It perfectly describes everything I hate about game stop.

( The Guide Awaits )

Here's some I know of:

• Henry Hatsworth and the Puzzling Adventure
• Lock's Quest
• Nostalgia

Know any more? :D

So I have been hearing a lot about Aion since it came out. Thing is, I'm not hearing in-depth opinions on it. I refuse to play WoW because I am a natural obsessor and am too afraid I'll start ignoring my real life to play it. LOL. Not that likely, but I'm not risking it. Hubbs played WoW for less than 6 months before he ran out of stuff to do/obtain and got bored with it and quit.

Hubbs' friend lent us his cd, but we still need to cough up $50 for a cd key and we're not willing to do it without significant understanding of the game [since we can't try it out].

So, here's what I'd like to know from those of you who play/played Aion.

- Pros
- Cons
- Similarities to WoW
- Differences from WoW

Thanks in advance!

Changing "Blonde Moment" to 'Dumb Moment'.

Apperently, I offended people. I would like to say that I did not mean to offend anyone by saying this, and that I don't actually think blondes are 'dumb'.

I'm just used to the saying 'blonde moment'. Sorry.

-----------------

I was playing Legend of Zelda Windwaker with my lil bro. I was in some kinda forest-ish island. Well there's this one little island next to that place that makes statues of pictures that you take with your Pictobox.

The only way to get to that island is a long, complicated process of going from one plant to the next and next, going to the edge of the Forest Island, and using a special leaf to float from that island you're on, to there.

That is till you get a ladder right when you first visit.

I, even though I have used this ladder to climb DOWN from the Picto Island, did not think ONCE "Hey, I can use this to go UP the island."

I kept using the long annoying process and take the ladder as an exit, never occuring to me that I can use it as an entrance.

Could of been a real time saver.

So, what was your most dumbest moment while gaming?

Street Fighter IV Cozy.

All the more reason as to why I love CAPCOM. ♥

Note: The Cozy is vastly different from the Snuggie.

I'll be sending a thank you card to a Korean professor and would like someone to correct what I've written below. I'm sure it's mega awkward.

Thanks in advance!


권선생님께

저는 Fulbright* 지원 도움에 감사드립니다. 이월에 한국위원회가 지원을 논평하면
알리겠습니다.

What I want to say/write:
Dear Dr. Kwon,

Thank you for helping me with my Fulbright application. I will let you know in February if the Korean committee will be reviewing it/the application.

Fulbright= 플러브라이트 ?? I still have trouble with "Konglish".

Also, what's a good way to end a letter/note?

I love horror games, but there is one series that I have absolutely refused to play: Resident Evil (at least the older titles). Why? Because I have a fairly severe phobia of spiders. It's not just RE, though; I pretty much avoid all games that have spiders. I've even had a hard time playing Zelda: OoT because of the skulltulas.

But unfortunately (fortunately?), that day has come where I'm being pressed to at least try to overcome my fear of spiders, albeit virtual ones. I'm a pretty big fan of BioWare and have caved in to purchasing DA:O. o_O This will be interesting...but I figure if I can be forced (well, more like pinned down) to sit through the entirety of Arachnophobia without later having nightmares, there may be hope for me yet.

Anyway, it makes me wonder...does anyone else have peculiar and/or perhaps trivial reasons for not playing certain games?

Hi all, repogirl the dollmaker here!  With the holidays really coming in, I'd like to take orders for any  plushes! 

Conditions:
- I will take a maximum of ten orders, so first come, first serve to get in your holiday gifts!  This will be posted to two or three other communities, so keep this in mind!
- Three doll maximum per customer!  First doll is $25, each additional is $20.
- Customer pays all shipping and handling fees.  Shipping includes delivery confirmation.
- Dolls can now be made either from cotton jersey with eyes drawn directly on the fabric, or made of flannel with eyes printed on transfer paper and ironed on. 
- I'd order now, because come December, I need to turn my attention to gift making for the family!  I need to knit/crochet/sew scarves, hats, dolls, stuffed animals, etc for family members too! ;)

Examples:
( Examples )


As far as games go, I've made:

-Nathan Drake (Uncharted)
-G-Man (Half Life)
-Leon Magnus (Tales of Destiny)


Well, hope to hear from you guys! :)

 Which is better in your opinion for the Wii and why?  Lego Indiana Jones or Pikman? 

Hi ya'll, I'm selling some more of my Japanese study aids. Both are in great condition, just want to get rid of them because they are superfluous materials.

- Essential Kanji by PG O'Neill. Perfect condition.
- Japanese Street Slang by Peter Constantine. In really good condition, a few words are underlined.

Both books retail for about $15, selling both for $10 with S&H included, or $5 each, S&H included.

Comment if you're interested, thanks!

I haven't downloaded a game from Stardock in a long time. I was thinking of Downloading Dragon Age:Origins, buts its huge and so forth. They're customer service decent(does it even exist?)? How well do they deal with disconnections during downloads? How fast have you been able to download?(I use cable)

And any opinions on the game if you've played it?

So, as some of you may know, Steam had a 50% special on Mass Effect this weekend, and my boyfriend suggested I get it. (When I questioned him about it, he reminded me that he'd played it months back and that it was one of the few games he actually thoroughly enjoyed anymore... which is saying a lot.) 

So I went ahead and bought it on Saturday, and wow. I can't believe I didn't get this game ages ago! I'm having so much fun with the level of interactivity involved and all the different conversations you can have (and everyone has a voice actor, which is so cool). The amount of detail and information the creators put into the history, politics, races, planets and star systems are pretty awesome, too. You can even go to Luna (our moon) and see a really spectacular view of Earth from it.
I haven't even beaten the game yet and I'm super excited to play it all over again just so I can give my character a different "personality" and see where it leads me. I had been playing Borderlands (another really fun one) before this and leveling a Siren, but I haven't even opened that game since I bought this; ME has just completely taken the cake.

Has anyone else ever "discovered" a game well after its release? I honestly hadn't even heard of it except when my b/f had mentioned he was playing it ages back.

I don't play the game (Tried it some time back, but it didn't appeal to me) but I got codes for a bonus package from PAX. Details are here.
