Since it's not canon and hardly anyone had the ability to really play the game it won't get its own section. If the thread gets a lot of attention though, I could sticky it perhaps, but I will go ahead and add this topic to the list of favorite threads here so it won't be lost.
Didn't know that stuff. It's always cool to hear some unique trivia. Ermac's name is really funny now.
Scorpion is my favorite because of the flaming skull thing and the 'Get over here' maneuver. However, I like Sub-Zero and Reptile a lot too for their finishers and playability. The other ones never really caught my interest.
lol, that's just awesome. Can't even say more. Just lol.
Sonic Heroes was not that great. I kind of thought it was lame but it did have one song I liked out of it. Sad that's about the only thing I thought that was cool from it. Sonic games since and including Heroes have been disappointments. I do hope they fix up things because the games prior to that were very enjoyable. Bringing back the classic 2d Sonic feel with the 3d features they have now would make for an awesome game, but so far to me they have failed. Maybe the new game will be cool...I can hope. I've grown tired of Mario games for the same reason that it just seems they have ran out of good things to do with the characters.
Original works usually is for stuff that is created -by- the author and not just a fanfic based on some anime, video game etc. Fanfics generally go in the general area of Creative Corner and people will check them out. That's the best place to put your work is in the Creative Corner regular area.
Someday you'll be able to and hopefully we'll still be here and kickin' waiting for your return. Take care, Hippie. You are cool and it sucks you may have to go. :(
Trodgor gets something legal to burn this time. Candles. Happy B-day!
So you aren't asking everyone on the forum out? Oh pooh.
Many forest fires start because of the natural course of things. That is the way it has always been. Humans have contributed with accidents but not so much as people like to say. Most people who make campfires are actually pretty responsible and I don't see anything wrong with doing that as long as someone does the right thing and waters the fire down and then buries the spot in dirt to suffocate the flames. Most campers are well accustomed to the practice. The forest fires we often hear about are not usually started by anything that has to do with man. Of course, the ones that are could genuinely be avoided by commonsense. However, making it illegal to go out and have a campfire is stupid. Certainly not enough accidents have happened to merit that and even children in school are taught how to deal with forest campfires by Smokey. As for hunting, I am not against it. I am against poaching, pointless killing of animals and trophy hunters. Trophy hunting animals that will not be eaten is wrong to me as there's no other purpose than to stuff the animal. Big game hunting for animals like bear, tigers etc that no one would even eat seems really stupid to me and it has dwindled populations of animals that are not even for consumption at all. Fox hunting is one thing I am glad to see go because the animals have been considered pests and vermin but otherwise they are simply harmless and no one uses them for anything other than sport for the wealthy mostly. However, there is another type of hunter that people pass over all the time and judge harshly. I am half Native American and I learned to hunt and I am glad I did. Going out with my grandfather to hunt, fish and learn survival of the woods and desert was a big thing to me. I had learned a lot of respect for nature and many hunters do, despite what some city/suburbia people think. Many hunters spend a lot of money to buy their own land and keep it wooded which prevents commercial buy outs and trees etc to be cut down. Many hunters also use preserves and help fund state parks to keep nature about. Also, hunters are MUCH more humane than corporations and farms that give us our beef and chicken; I can assure you. Hunting helps control wild life overpopulation and not everyone wants to eat chicken and beef and fish all the time. Venison, turtle, frog, fish, snake, rabbit and some other animals have been hunted for years and people -like- to eat them. We may not -have- to but who is anyone to say that someone else cannot? Also, in other countries people must hunt. So in the end, I think both your statements need some evaluation and consideration because they are only disclosing a limited point of view. People live their own lives how they will and there is a difference between hunting and animal cruelty. Just because stores give out what they will doesn't mean they didn't also have someone killing animals for it. And a good hunter, which many are, will be more a part of nature than many animal lovers that slam them constantly. Some types of hunting need stopped but definitely I am against the banning of all hunting. Also, if I want to go camping and have a campfire, that is not a privilege I'm so willing to give up either.
You can also get Adaware too. I use a combination of AVG, Spybot and Adaware and they all pretty much take care of everything.
It's not a 'big deal' in America to have lip syncing, Pyro. We know in movies and stuff they do it all the time and on music videos and productions. We expect it there but when an artist decides to sing 'live' on some television show, we expect some things will be prerecorded but not everything. This can even be excused in most cases. However, actual live performance concerts where we pay up to and beyond 100 dollars to go see a band live, we want to hear that they can pull off some of the features they can on their albums without the digital stuff. I don't think that's a big demand there. What happened to Yang Peiyi is reminiscent of what happened with Milli Vanilli in that there were the two lead guys out front dancing and lip syncing everything while another guy was the real singer but he was fat so he was never even announced as doing anything. So yes, people were upset about that because the real person was not given any credit at all for it until it became exposed. Had they said initially that he was the singer, people wouldn't have cared. We -do- have quite a few shows and such where people lip sync but in the credits they are always mentioned. As for the other lip-syncer, Ashlee Simpson, most of us laughed at it because she did a jig after...which was just stupid. She could have put it together and told the band to play and she'd sing live. Instead she was just silly. Obviously she still makes albums and we know she's the -actual- singer even if she does lip sync. It's not the same here. The point here is that the little girl who actually sang was given -no- credit at all as even an honorable mention. She's also 7 years old and the other 9 year old girl is adorable and apparently the one who is 7 doesn't look so 'cute' is the reason? I could see the reason being the 7 year old might have gotten stage fright. Her voice may have come off better behind the scenes but to not credit her at all is a shame. I've watched Bollywood films for years and I do know what you are saying though not all actresses cannot sing or dance. Urmila from China Gate is an example. She's an incredible dancer and has a pretty decent voice as well and is beautiful. She may in some movies get some help but she has incredible talent. So hopefully that explains it. We aren't as bad as you made us out to be. There are more issues with credit and the Chinese government and people who put this together had a right to do what they wanted here to put on a killer show. All that people expected was the actual singer Yang Peiyi should have been mentioned as it was her voice along with the acting of Lin Miaoke that we were amazed by.
Go DW!
Name / Alias: Vincent Valentine Age: Appears 27 though he is much older. Gender: M Parents: father: Grimoire Valentine. Mother: unknown. Personality: Distant, quiet. He has honor and takes things he agrees to do very seriously. He is soft spoken even though a rage lays within him that enables him to change forms to use against foes. Weapon: Death Penalty, other shotguns, pistols. Biography: Vincent is a former Turk who worked for Shin-Ra and made a name for himself. His father was a noteworthy scientist and he had worked with Lucrecia Crescent, but died in a tragic accident. Vincent was sent to protect Lucrecia in Nibelheim as some felt her life may be in danger. Vincent and Lucrecia began to fall in love but much to his dismay, her call to science and also a sense of bettering the world led her to become impregnated with Hojo's child that was infused with Jenova Cells. She began to have visions of what Sephiroth would become later and became ill, but hoped for better. Hojo was confronted by Vincent who called the whole thing mad. Hojo, counting Vincent as a risk, took out a gun and shot him in the stomach and then a few more times when the Turk fell. Afterwards, he conducted experiments on him which would later grant him abilities of transformation, enhanced strength, agility, the ability to fly and gave him red eyes. However, he was still lifeless until Lucrecia found him and placed the body into a vat containing some lifestream as well as the spirit of Chaos, which was kept under control by the Protomateria she implanted in his chest. Lucrecia was rather obsessed with Chaos and studying the effects of it. Regaining consciousness, Vincent was abandoned and came to realize that Lucrecia had died soon after child birth by not being treated and basically bled to death. He assumed this hideous transformation he had undergone and pain he was suffering were because he had sinned and failed to do his duty in protecting Lucrecia. Though he did speak to the leader of the Turks who approached him, Vincent was horrified and furious, refusing to leave the underground area of the mansion. He would later be locked and sealed in a room to which he would sleep in a coffin for 30 years. 30 years later, he was awakened by Cloud and his party. Though at first reluctant to join them, he did so and gave them more information into the secret and elusive past of Sephiroth. He assisted Avalanche while attempting to ensure he could keep control of his transformations that sometimes went awry. He also would kill Hojo back at the Shin-Ra building in Midgar, getting some sense of justice. He faced Lucrecia as well in a cave, speaking to her spirit that was unable to leave there due to her Jenova Cells. She gave him Death Penalty and he made his way out with the rest of the group after they spoke briefly and both apologized for their failures. He then aided in taking down Sephiroth and Jenova. After this he aided the WRO (World Regenesis Organization) loosely though he preferred to wander and work alone. Cloud was ambushed by Kadaj, Loz and Yazoo, which Vincent interrupted and then explained to him about what caused Geostigma. Vincent then would go on to have to face Deepground. The Organization targeted Vincent because he carried the Protomateria, though he did not know of it. Rosso the Crimson takes it from his body and though weakened, he did not die and regenerated. Surviving the episode made things more weird as he became plagued by visions of the past and even some events that he was not necessarily a part of, as well as the awakened essence of Chaos who wished to kill. Weiss, another member, had been taken over by Hojo and he declared his intention to use Omega, a Summon, to drain the Lifestream from the planet. Vincent does kill Weiss, dispersing Hojo's mind so it cannot return, but Omega was awakened and he had to get the Protomateria and then change to Chaos to face Omega. After the battle, the spirit of Chaos and Omega both were returned to the planet to rest until needed and Vincent went to see Lucrecia a final time, understanding that what she did was to give him a chance at life and that the past was done so he could move on to the future.

Sora blinked. "I'm sorry, Demyx. You were kind of in the way and acting well...weird. I don't know what to say other than you attacked me already once and were acting the same way you did before so I guess I reacted bad...and you were kind of in my way and we told you to go. I guess though, hearing your side, we were kind of hasty. Sorry." Sora scratched the back of his neck, unsure what else to say about that. "If you want to go back...maybe you could take the long way from Twilight Town instead. Maybe that would work..." Sora gave a look to Riku like 'help me out here and whoo boy'. Riku nodded. "Demyx, Sora and you really weren't communicating too well there and both made each other frustrated. You did come here to make friends with him and the rest of us, right? No one is going to harm you now since you are here peacefully. Do you think the others are in danger? Seems to be the case if you can't get back and heard the voice coming here. Maybe we should check it out...though I'm not sure how Xemnas and the others would take it. Sora may be right though. We may be able to get back through the long way." Riku looked out at the water. "Maybe that is the beginning of what this note says in a way. We do need to leave here if we are to do anything at all and find King Mickey too. What do you all think?"
204. Stick your lips against the window and blow outward and make fish noises..when they ask say you are trying to find Nemo.
There is a way though if Nomura followed through. After all, Nobodies don't appear to really age so if she was one and got her heart back in the game, it could work. Of course this is all entirely just random and doesn't have to hold true at all and isn't even a theory.
It's Darkwatch or Deathwatch. Not DarkWatch!
Adaware or Spybot both work pretty well to help get rid of popups like that and isolate these sorts of things. Hopefully either program will do the job.
My favorite one was probably Fellowship of the Ring though I also really enjoyed the other two movies. I thought they were done very well despite some deviations from the book and the work did the books a great service. I could tell that a lot of care went into the whole thing so I didn't mind any deviations. The last movie, Return of the King, seemed the weakest to me but still was great, nonetheless.
