Megaman games. The bosses do tend to have patterns yea, but they are still hard as f*** to beat and alot of the later ones are way nasty and mix it up more.

RE: Guitar Hero~HighScores~
Pumping the whammy bar on extended notes that give you star power ups your star power faster. Crooshal.
I'm working on 5 stars in hard mode and beating expert. Quite a task.

RE: Favorite One Piece Arc so far and upcomming arc discussion
Not to sound like a sheep here but
Ennies Lobby arc BAAAAA-AAA-AAAA
like was said before it's a major turning point in the series, kind of a half-way mark I think. Also has the coolest fights since Alabasta

RE: New Official Viz Manga Discussion
yawn
biggest complaint always comes back to the L/R switch
It really doesn't bother me, granted in this case Nefertari DOES have a meaning to it, it has nothing to do with the actual story really.

RE: Why are bosses always so fucking stupid?
I thought you were talking about work-bosses
mine just walked up behind me
DO'H!

RE: The beauty of the phrase "After the Holidays"
Now that I know there are people who feel annoyed by that, I feel bad now. >_>
I am bothered by it, but also use it frequently myself! Heh.

RE: Bleach Discussion
I just caught up on chapters, and I gotta say this'll be way cooler when it is animated, but right now I find this backtoback fighting pretty yawn
Also Nell = comedy relief/healing ability. Puck anyone?

RE: The Slayers (anime)
I want to say alot of bad things about this show, but I did use to watch it back when I was a n00b, so I'll leave it at:
a) Boring, predictable story-line
b) Boring, predictable characters
c) Boring, predictable villainsMy favorite thing about the whole show was the comedy, and prolly Lena losing her powers during "that time of the month"

The beauty of the phrase "After the Holidays"
Well, I saw it in Buuhan1's avatar, but that's barely the beginning of it. This phrase is one that represents procrastination and vagueness at its best. Example:
A: "I'm gonna lose weight. For real this time."
B: "Well just when do you plan to do that?"
A: "After the holidays"A: "WHEN WILL THE @#$% fillers end?!"
B: "Oh, some time after the holidaysThe point is, from Thanksgiving in November to New Years Eve there are 3 major holidays. To take it a step further, it could last till the end of February, if you include MLK Jr.'s birthday, Groundhog day, Valentines day, Lincoln's birthday, etc.. To say you'll do something "After the holidays" is the biggest cop out of an answer ever. This phrase annoys the crap out of me because it really doesn't mean anything. Just thought I'd share. <3

RE: Untitled
I don't imagine ES21 or Yakitate will get liscenced any time too soon. The former is a sports anime, and that alone is gonna separate it from the high selling market, even if it is shonen.
The puns are a big factor for Yakitate, altho the manga has done a good job with English equivalents (MARE-velous bread, etc.), the length of the series is morelikely what'll keep it from getting liscenced.
Death Note anime on Adult Swim FTW. That would prolly skyrocket anime popularity to new heights.

RE: Untitled
Blood tastes metallic, I don't really go for it.
And GSR, in response to your sig, I find it hilarious.

RE: Religion Thread
To adress atheism as it was mentioned earlier, I find that the majority of Philosophy majors I've met in college are atheists. This is because they critically analyze religions and put them in a pseudo-scientific light, alowing for faith about certain issues but also demanding that they hold up. The problem is, besides the lack of any sort of concrete evidence or reason to believe in a specific religion, contradiction can be found in almost any religion.
So I guess my point is Atheists have faith in humanity as having created god through reasoning which always fails in the end. God was made to explain extraordinary events, along came science, and God not so popular anymore.

RE: Chapter 438 "Pride" Discussion
this was a great chapter. Of course Usopp hasn't totally grown up and will continue to be his cowardly self. What he's learned is his responsibility to the crew and his need to obey the captain's wishes regardless of his opinions. Very cr00shal.
Luffy crying face FTW

RE: Official 4kids Dub Thread Mk III (The End Has Come)
You people who are expecting a redub are being way too optimistic. If this show gets "picked up" again in the states by a different dubbing company within the next 10 years I'll be really surprised.
-
RE: Gintama Discussion
@LC:
That. Was. Great!
Episode 11 had me in stiches the whole time! I especially loved Gintoki's speech about drinking too much strawberry milk and having to piss in the middle of the cold night! I am so grateful a group like shinsen picked this up.
"THEN YOU FEEL THAT WARM FEELING SPREADING BECAUSE YOU REALIZE THAT YOU DIDN'T GET UP BUT YOU ARE STILL IN BED"
insert wild applause
This is one of the few anime that make me ROFL as much as Eyeshield 21, Bobo or One Piece.

RE: Is Dragon the strogest in the world, by far?
He is the strogest, yes. And although he is able to do extremely movements. Gotta keep an eye on that exaust tho.
Sorry. I'm a spelling nazi. :) I actually have nothing to contribute here.

RE: The Let's talk about smoking and its effects thread
@Bad-Beat:
Excuse me, your ignorance is showing.
Actually, I think governments that squander money trying to stop the traffic of illegal goods as opposed to making them legal and taxing them since there is obvious demand for them ARE crazy. Marijuana should be legalized so the government can pay off the deficit. They would make a fortune.

RE: D. Gray-man Anime Adaptation!
Thanks Generic soda! I figured as soon as I saw Allen's arm nailed to the wall there was more they weren't showin. Altho I must be an idiot cuz I didn't realize his eye was all fudged up, haha. (I thought he just had blood on his face or something)
-
RE: D. Gray-man Anime Adaptation!
Hey I'm hearing alot of talk about edits (Which is understandable with the time slot) but I'd kinda like a summary of what edits there have been in the first 11 episodes, if anyone has the time or maybe just wants to point out the major ones.
Also I obviously haven't read the manga but I'm really loving this anime so far. Please be good about the spoiler tags ppl!!!1
-
RE: Gintama Discussion
Ok ok sorry for 3x posts BUT
!!!!! Shinsen-Subs has released 11-12 special and episode 13 !!!!!
Get em while they're hot
-
RE: Berserk
yes but you have to admit the whole Holy Tower arc would kick immense amounts of ass animated
So so so sooooo true.
Also I would love to seen an OVA, just to tide us over. You know they'll have to get back to animated it SOME day. Probably just not any time soon.
And I saw Terek made a post about that PS2 game - I been playing it myself recently (dropped it for a while for FFXII and tales of the abyss, just picked it back up) and despite its repetitiveness it's my favorite hack'n'slash for the PS2. Awesome graphics, lots of blood, and some really great cinematic cutscenes (especially where I just got to in the game with
! the witch-girl summoning spirits to ward off the trolls)

RE: New Official Viz Manga Discussion
@rapskallion:
Oh I see, well that certainly makes sense. Though I don't see "damn" as that much of a bad word, but I guess other people do.
Yea I think we can all thank The Simpsons for that. Remember when (you all probably don't) there was little to no cussing on t.v. at all? Restrictions have definitely lowered dramatically in the last 15-20 years.
But in regards to manga, it's held to a more strict standard, and rightfully so.

RE: One Piece The Movie - The Desert Princess and the Pirates
This should be awesome. I really wonder how they're gonna squeeze the important stuff in. I plan to show this movie to non-OP fans as well to try to win em over, assuming it's good.
-
RE: 291 a special episode?
I'm looking forward to this, for some reason non-canon OP offshoots like this I find really enjoyable. Prolly cuz I like the characters/VAs so much they can do no wrong, haha.

RE: Please STOP Posting Spoilers!!!
Backed 100%, there's a thing called spoiler tags people, USE THEM. Don't ruin the surprise for others!
[.spoiler] [./spoiler] withouth the dots, of course.

RE: Death Note Anime Discussion
seriously though, putting spoilers right dab into the post…..how did I know to stop at spoiler when I read fast, I can't stop.....meh, it'll become uninteresting, unless the show keeps me going....I really didn't want to know what happened...
I personally H A T E spoilers myself, but on this board if there's a topic about something assume people are gonna let loose with spoilers without bothering to put them in tags. No one really enforces spoiler tags in this section, so you are just better off staying out of thread if you wanna avoid em.
This has been a great anime so far, I made my anti-anime friend who I got into Berserk watch it and he's all like "Wat the hell is wrong with this guy? He's a prick" (about Light of course)

RE: Scanlation: 438 MQ - Franky House
Aaah so the bad quality is why there was nothing out till now. Thanks for the hard work!

RE: Juki Ningen Jumbor (Shaman King Mangaka's new series)
Now comes the part where I write endless letters to Del Rey so they get this series and VIZ Media does not.
Hahaha good luck, if this ever sees states Viz has exclusive rights to all SJ property. Oh dip
-
RE: Dragon Quest IX
This looks wicked fun. I can see how die-hard fans might be disappointed, but folks, there will ALWAYS be turned based strategy games, the recent trend is otherwise tho. I'm kinda for it, FFXII was way fun, and maybe DQ9 will, oh I dunno, get that battle sytem right eh? :)
EDIT: Youtube vid of gameplay:
EDIT 2: I still have sonic 2 3 and 4, and I remember thinking it was the coolest shit ever

RE: AP NYC Trip the sequel?
Eh, well my friend lives in Brooklyn, and it's more of an idea than an actual plan. I do always find it cool to meet other internerds with my shared niche interests tho
-
RE: Gintama Discussion
Hate to double post, buuuut for those who are interested Bakaneko put out ep7.
I can't really say I see a huge different between BN and SS, even tho SS hasn't put out an episode in like 3 weeks now, chances are they'll be ahead of BN for the rest of the game.
waits impatiently
-
RE: Buso Renkin Anime Discussion
Episode 10 I have mixed opinions about. It was good but I knew it would play on the humanity of the siblings (even tho I did think they were homunculi before). I won't be surprised if they do the uber-generic bad to good-guy switch, seems to be going that way.
-
RE: Will Luffy ever stop getting stuck?
This is cuz like all shonen series the hero has to arrive late. Luffy's excuse is just that he's an idiot. Personally I like it better than other ways I've seen it done, (goku in a spaceship for 35 episodes for example)
-
RE: Berserk
(still thinks they should continue the anime)
Well I don't recall if it was in this thread but I heard there isn't going to be another anime adaption until the Berserk manga is finished… so uh... we have a long time to wait. :)
Berserk is probably also a series that could make me burst into tears, if a) caska is brought back or dies b) if Guts does actually smile again
-
RE: The Let's talk about smoking and its effects thread
You cannot die from smoking pot.
No form of inhaling smoke is good for your lungs.
I like what Greg said on the first page. Everyone has a vice, if yours is smoking (whatever substance) so be it. I think the biggest problem comes with clashing opinions and/or people who don't want to be around it. I smoke weed almost everyday but I really hate cigarette smoke.

RE: [ADC-Elites] One Piece 289
Haha sweet I worte an essay then BOOM more One Piece! Thanks as always, definitely glad I didn't crack and grab the speedsub
-
RE: AP NYC Trip the sequel?
Holy shit. That's two.
Small internet, huh?
Actually, sorta like 2.5, haha. I lived in Buffalo when I was really little, and my grandparents live out there. At least you're close to Canada tho. :)
-
RE: AP NYC Trip the sequel?
I might be taking a trip into the city later this month, which borough?
-
RE: Berserk
This series is awesome, I can't really say I've ever gotten sick of Gattsu, if anything his charater development lately (sacrificing his body to use the berserker armor) has been pretty interesting, I'm thinking eventually he'll have to become a demon to defeat one. Makes sense.
-
RE: [ADC-Elites] One Piece 288
@emeriken1277:
and when is Shanks gonna hit the spotlight?? I want that part of the story to come out!
! He came back in one of the really recent manga chapters.
Thanks a gazillion to ADC, this ep was so great, first time in a while I've felt so antsy for more One Pieeeeeeece!
-
RE: Gears the new Kaio-Ken?
They are somewhat similar yea, but I doubt that Luffy will find a GREATER more powerful "method" than Gear, like Goku found with his SS
-
RE: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure
What's this huh? about. From all the stand references you know he listens to american music.
Yea I'm aware, still kind of a strange combination of artists
-
RE: Guitar Hero~HighScores~
Dude, why weren't you out killing REAL aliens instead of playing stupid Halo 2?!?
I've played guitar for 8+ years, and I find this game incredibly fun. While it won't improve your guitar skills persay, it will do alot for your hand-eye coordination.
-
RE: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure
I just got the much anticipated VIZ volume 6 (a.k.a. volume 18) and it looks hot so far, also continues an interview from the last volume.
Apparently at the time of the interview Araki was listening to Kayne West and TIm McGraw. Huh.
-
RE: Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey: Comedy Genius or 80's Runoff?
I love the Excellent Journey and Bogus Adventure, even tho the latter is even more cheesy and ridiculous
-
RE: Final Fantasy XII
I'm 17 hours into DQVIII and I love the fact that I actually have to worry about characters dieing. Because otherwise it would be like: "Oh, somebody die? Whatever… revived". So far I have really liked the difficulty level of DQVIII, it's not that hard at all but it's not a complete cake walk either.
Hate to go too off-topic but yea, DQ8 was so well balanced in so many ways, too bad all RPGS aren't that solid.
I still give FFXII an 8.5/10 tho
-
RE: Buso Renkin Anime Discussion
another solid episode
the whole bath scene was pretty hilarious. LoL at Penis envy
