    IPLY can finish BG3

    It's likely that the game was almost done anyways, and they just wanted to crap the game out of the door. Nine times out of ten, this usually ends up as a forgettable game. Of course, this throws a monkey wrench into the whole reasoning as to why BiS was killed. If they wanted to focus on...

    Daytona 500 Predictions

    Well, my sure bet was spot on. The only "where in the hell did he come from" suprise was Scott Wimmer, who finished third. Rookies aren't supposed to be that good in the Daytona 500. Also, the exact date that Dale Sr. won his Daytona 500 was Feburary 15, 1998. Guess the stars were aligned...

    Daytona 500 Predictions

    Before I go to bed, I'll post the three drivers I like to win the Daytona 500: a sure bet, a fall-back, and a dark horse. Sure Bet: Dale Earnhardt Jr.: Well, how could I NOT pick him to be the favorite? Now that Greg Biffle, the polesitter, had to change engines and fall back, Junior is on...

    An Abbreviated History Of SNK

    If there's a video game cult that's more dedicated and rabid than the Fallout Cult, it has to be the SNK Cult. http://www.gamespot.com/features/6089278/index.html Read up and discuss.

    Betting Pool. When will Iply tank ?

    3DO is bankrupt... they sold off everything. Don't know what happened to the Heroes of Might and Magic... I'll probably look it up.

    Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the big show...

    If nobody watched, then nobody watched a pretty damn amazing last lap pass by Dale Jarret. And a last lap wreck by Ryan Newman. :)

    Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the big show...

    I want everyone to tune in to TNT tonight at 7:30. The Bud Shootout is on, and until Thanksgiving, all other sports are irrelevant to me. Jeremy Mayfield has the pole, and Dale Junior is dead last. It should be obvious what happened when the 8 car started dead last in the Shootout last time...

    Doom 3!

    Just for old times, I installed Doom II on my computer and fired it up. Man, there is a reason why it's on my top ten list of PC games. Besides the level design and the monster design, the thing that strikes me as ahead of its time was the lighting. Even now, ten years after it was unleashed...

    Very funny stuff...!!

    Personally, I like the stick figure shooter. Reminds me of Virtua Cop. :)

    SUPERBOWL TIME!!!

    File this one under the "Wow, didn't see that coming... :roll: :roll: :roll: " section... http://www.parentstv.org/PTC/publications/release/2004/0202.asp Ouch. Them's fightin' words! And they don't make mention of the farting horse or Cedric the Entertainer accidentely getting a bikini...

    SUPERBOWL TIME!!!

    Wardrobe malfunction. Heh. That's something a second grader (or Pee Wee Herman in the adult theater masterbating) would say... At least NASCAR wouldn't be cought dead doing this. Especially with feel-good stories like Terry Labonte ending a four-year winless streak by winning the last Labor...

    SUPERBOWL TIME!!!

    Just watched the commercial for the Starsky and Hutch movie, and let me say, getting Snoop Dogg to play Huggy Bear is hands down the best casting move in the history of moviemaking. Fo shizzle. :)

    Sega GT Online: Gran Turismo Who?

    Well, as promised, here is my first impressions of Sega GT Online. Needless to say, Sega GT Online is to Sega GT 2002 what Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution is to Virtua Fighter 4: an upgrade that throws a crapload of new features and goodies at you and is priced to move at $20. And like VF4 Evo...

    Sweet mother of Jebus, this is funny

    Well, since this turned into an arcade-related thread, I might as well chime in. I have two arcades within a 30 minute drive from me- one that is literally a stone's throw from my college, and one that's on the corner of I-95 and Sterling Road that has a wooden rollercoaster. The wooden...

    Betting Pool. When will Iply tank ?

    Let me see... If I was a betting man, I'd say by June 2004. I mean, IPLY is owned by Titus, "proud" publisher of Superman 64 and other video game abortions. I don't remember any Titus game actually being good. So when you add that to the Scrooge-like decision of IPLY to fire all but two BiS...

    SUPERBOWL TIME!!!

    Trust me, for 38 weeks, nothing else matters. :) One of my life goals is to be on one of those "how bad have you got it?" commercials.

    Sports

    I'm personally getting into the World Rally Championship stuff. I catch that on Speed Channel every chance I get. I wasn't interested last year once Mitsubishi decided to take a break, but now that they're back, I'm ready to watch 'em kick some Subaru ass!

    And under this definition, auto racing is one, too. :wink:

    SUPERBOWL TIME!!!

    Yawn. ::looks at calender:: 17 days until the Daytona 500! :) For some, the hardest months of the year are between Febuary and August. For me, it's between Thanksgiving and Valentine's Day. I was so hungry for motorsports, I watched lawnmower racing on ESPN2. I got excited about Jason...

    Best Gaming Music

    Vice City, hands down. I love the soundtrack set to death, and I love the commercials, especially the Petstuffers ad and the movie ads. Some of the music in Sega's racing games (Daytona USA 1 and 2, Super GT, NASCAR Arcade) is catchy in a J-Pop kind of way. And the J-Pop in Initial D: Arcade...
