No time to play new games - buffering my spare time for the future ST2 ...  But ST2 is a new game. If you can't play it, then all this buffering was for nothing. My, my, my, this is a complex logic bomb  |

I saw that one. Another good cat photo. Every time I see a new one I can hear Jack Nicholson as the Joker saying,
"where does he get those wonderful toys"

Yeah, that oldder Batman movie was all Jack. Much like The Dark Knight was all Heath Ledger.
My two favorite Joker actors.

I have often noticed that for every incarnation and generation of Batman there is a Joker that fits perfect. It's hard to pick a favorite. Love them all.

Yeah, a lot of the time, the Joker is awesome but sometimes the Bat Man is a little lacking. I did like Christian Bale as Bat Man but am very worried about the next incarnation that has been picked  As an aside, if anyone plays the male Demon Hunter in D3, have you noticed he sounds a lot like Christian Bales' Bat Man ... |

Bale has been my favorite since Keaton. To me that was what ruined the franchise from the 80's. Getting rid of Keaton. I really do think they should have kept Bale. He did a great job. This last Batman movie trilogy with him was great in the way it explores some of the more dark psychologies behind the characters. The action was good too and there were some great lines. Stop looking at the screen like that slayernz, why so serious. |

And yet again ladies and gentlemen, slayernz pulls off another purrfect pussy picture, or is that picture purrfect pussy, no wait,,, a good cat photo? There has to be some way to describe this madness. Even with the power of the internet, it boggles the mind how he can get a cat photo that so accurately fits any post on this forum |

I played Minecraft on the Xbox 360, and Creative Mode always bored the tar out of me. Building is nice and all, but without the added dangers of wildlife threatening to destroy my buildings or compelling me to make functional buildings in the first place, I lose interest very, VERY quickly. I drag some friends into survival mode because of this boredom on my end and for the sick kick of hearing them whine/panic as night falls and they can't get their wonder mansion done before the monsters come out (mud huts and digging to pass the time til morning FTW). I love the challenge of building a moderately nice house AND making it safe from monsters too. I don't even mine/fight much, just build and monster-proof buildings while exploring all I can so I can eventually connect all my outposts together (Xbox does have a limited world). But thats just me, and I sense that I'm something of a minority in Minecraft. Well, to each their own. Couldn't agree more. Survival is awesome, I never even touch creative except to check out a map seed and make sure it has the biomes I want (Xbox world is finite). It's great, gradually upgrading your gear, going hunting for items only gained from monsters, creating your own weapons and armour, trading with villagers, mining, running a farm and planting vegetables, breeding animals, discovering abandoned mine shafts, finding treasure, building amazing redstone contraptions, setting traps around monster spawners, finding ingenious uses for minecarts, creating turrets for monsters out of pressure plates and dispensers (the potato turret isn't especially effective. Nor the snow-ball one), creating shops for MP trading, building a lookout post atop the tallest tree in the jungle, avoiding traps Indiana Jones style in temples, reaching the Nether and exploring for rare crafting components, taking out Endermen for their pearls, finding the 'end' portal and slaying the dragon, going boat-riding over your insane water-fall emergency escape route, creating Obsidian, building cobblestone generators... I must stop now, or I'll just go on and on! Replanting trees and flowers and watching them flourish, creating golems out of snow and pumpkins you've grown... Damn it, sorry! Minecraft is limited by your imagination. Like Scribblenauts, the more open minded you can be the more you'll get out of it. And when you've exhausted your imagination with what the game gives you, learn redstone wiring and create your own unique, insane contraptions. The keyboard from BIG? A roller coaster? Material farms? House alarms? Hidden doors behind bookshelves? Pistons? TNT? Uh-oh, I'm off again... |

beuns, I've played every FF from I to XIII-2. Faves, in this order: IX, VII, VI, VIII, X, IV, XIII-2, III, V, XIII, X-2, II, I. Don't touch MMO's and haven't yet played Lightning Returns (aka XIII-3. A trilogy out of one numbered release. Ah well, it worked with Assassin's Creed II). Only ever played the first Suikoden. I have vague memories of recruiting dozens of party members - over a hundred - and them all relaxing at my base in baths and wotnot. They made quite a few of those games - over half a dozen I think.

mataeus : my faves are little different for FF but...they're great games. If if I remember correctly, you can recruit up to 150 persons. And pick some of them only to make your team. Great game also.

Oh I remember my minecraft days, i tried it again lately and built a giant underground labyrinth. The cool looking part was that it was in the interior of a sandstone pyramid. So many traps, such little time.

What I enjoy the most in Minecrat is building skylands. I always loved the concept of Jack and the Beanstalk, or floating fortresses. So, that's what I do. It's pretty difficult because I have to create the entire "floor" of the skyland ... hundreds, thousands of blocks. Then I have to find the proper blocks to garnish them in 'clouds' I usually use spiderwebs, and white wool blocks. On top of these blocks I build what I want. Mushroom towers. Stone battlements. Magical forests. Floating hot tubs. Floating dance party areas with disco lights and stuff. Creating stuff is fun. Survival sort of looses its feel for me after a while. I mean, I did kill the darn Ender Dragon. rabid |
