piss poor holidays?

I don't keep up with all the release dates but recently found many of the games I am anticipating are not coming out until sometime next year. Will this be an unmerry christmas for you or have you had less merrier ones?

I'm getting a router to hook into our cable so I can finally get beyond this dial up. It'll be good for me.

Well, I'll be going to Japan (and the ski resorts) again, so... it's merry I guess. To hell with the release dates, skiing is much more cool, with all those cute Japanese girls... :love:

...yeah, now that I don't have a burde...I mean, a girlfriend anymore, my conscience won't bother me anymore! Hehehe...

Shiori, was she the one in the black and white photo you attached a few times and was almost a lingerie model or were they 2 different people?

I may be the only one to say I don't envy you. Japanese girls and skiing

Yeah, they're one and the same. Whatever, I don't care about her anymore.

Dunno about you, but skiing is fun... and the lodge is a great place to socialize as well.

Eh, this Christmas is gonna suck... I'll be broke and forced to live with my parents cause I've been forced into a medical leave of absence from University cause of a neurological problem. My girlfriend will at least be back in the country by Christmas, but I probably won't even get to see her till January

Hehe. There are too many games coming out as it is.

Silent Hill 2
Metroid Prime
Resident Evil 0.

Those are my Christmas must-plays. There are also the usual assortment of other games that I simply must play, if I don't feel as much of a burning desire. Games such as Timesplitters 2 and Bloodrayne.

Taisen, what consoles do you have?

A new computer? Maybe a mobo and CPU upgrade could do. And a HDD upgrade.

Yeah, I guess you could call that a new computer already. :embl:

From that comment I already feel old before I was young.

If your morality is only good when holding a lover's heart then get thee to a rectory. They have the spiritual authority to straighten out young men like yourself. I didn't know Shiori had knowledge of middle english(eg burde).

I don't understand what is so funny. It seems you have named all fps's which I loathe for being fps's. I don't recognize Bloodrayne. Is that a fps too?
I have all of them for which I'm waiting for Zelda, FFTGBA, Panzer Dragoon Orta, and Unlimited Saga to name a few. WARNING: Don't anyone dare consider Panzer Dragoon Orta a shooter when it is a shmup.

Will Magical Vacation be released in the US? I think it is being released here but I can't remember.

Eh? I only named one FPS. I hate most FPS games as well.

Resident Evil is survival horror, aka Adventure. No fps involved.

Silent Hill 2 is also Survival Horror, aka Adventure. No fps involved.

Metroid Prime is an Adventure. The only similarity it has to an fps is the viewpoint.

Bloodrayne is also an Adventure. No fps involved.

Timesplitters 2 is an FPS. But a very special one.
