I agree though; MS should definitely reimburse those of us who got carp on Live over the holidays.

I JUST activated my free 48-hour card today, and I could still hardly connect at all..
Oh, and to upload your screenshots from Halo 3 to your bungie.net account, you have to be a PAID Xbox Live Gold member?
carp STILL CAN'T PLAY WITHOUT LAGGING OUT

TP was arguably the best Zelda game yet made, but for some reason people want to overlook the fact that Nintendo seem to have gone so far as to listen to the fans (I know I saw plenty of things in there that I had been spamming the official Nintendo forums about for years) this time around, and even advanced the Zelda formula significantly, because people don't want it to ruin their OoT nostalgia-wanking sessions.
Actually the problem was it was pretty much exactly like OoT except easier. TP did suck. So does Phantom Hourglass.

When people say TP sucks/is bad, they mean it relative to other Zelda games.
RE: gaming random thoughts - OSW - Dec. 31, 2007
Beat F-ZERO X (n64). best 5 dollar purchase i made in a while.
i really want f-zero on DS with the same course style, as i've played the gba ones and honestly the barriers and course design bother me (same as snes style).
RE: gaming random thoughts - Guitar_Legend - Dec. 31, 2007
Hmm over the past month I've been playing my PS2 more than normal.
Almost beat black, which was average to say at best..would be alot better if it didn't take 50 bullets to kill someone.
Playing through career on expert in GH3 without much problems, well..besides the guitar battles, which are insanely stupid. currently stuck on slash...
Bought the Hitman trilogy today, though I've never actually played the games, they look pretty fun. Couldn't let it down either, it was only $30..actually i had a gift card so it didnt cost me anything. =)
EDIT: just beat black. what a retarded game.

mainly because the story was boring, and I'm not one of those "hardcore gamers" who expect a COMPLETLY AMAZING STORY, hell I thought Jak 3 had a pretty damn amazing story
and I'm currently playing Heatseeker, and I like the story of that game too
so it doesn't take much to impress me, but still TP didn't

Wind Waker was awesome minus the fetch quest near the end. My top 3 is:
OoT
MM
WW
RE: gaming random thoughts - PRINCEcharming - Jan. 01, 2008
TWW was just like OoT except with tedious sailing bits, bad graphics, and less game.

RE: gaming random thoughts - PRINCEcharming - Jan. 01, 2008
Oh yeah, and the fights were largely automated.
C'mon, there is no way to level that accusation at TP without acknowedging that TWW was guilty as sin.

RE: gaming random thoughts - Roan - Jan. 02, 2008
No.
It doesn't.
For it's time the graphics were good, but they don't hold up today. (BLAH BLAH I KNOW NO GAME'S GRAPHICS HOLD UP SHUTUP)
RE: gaming random thoughts - mdhvdukshsj - Jan. 02, 2008
common sense emerges
RE: gaming random thoughts - Bey Brad - Jan. 02, 2008
I'm not saying it has better graphics than current games! I am saying it still looks great, and sometimes better than current games because the art direction was far superior to many games coming out today (including TP, which had crappy art direction). The art direction of a game has always been way more important to me than its graphics.
