  7. Re:I'm not surprised at the Pokemon figures... on Pokemon Leads Game Sales Up 31% in May · · Score: 1

    "One thing they really should have fixed up is those damn 8 bit sounds when a Pokemon makes a noise "

    From what I've heard, its supposed to be a growl... One of the things I thought was neet when it first came out was how they each had their own sound they made ^_^

    I agree though that it should be a little higher quality.


    "surely there would be enough space on the DS GameCard to store the Pokemon's noises from the TV Anime series"

    Personally I think that it would get annoying. It would also get repetitive very quickly if you come in contact with the same pokemon several times.
    I'm fine with the clicks and beeps. Its not out of the ordinary to hear "BEEP CLICK" from a machine. I'm often in and out of the country a lot flying on an airplane, imagine you had no experence with Pokemon and someone is next to you playing it, and you hear "RATTATA!!!!" screeching from the device, you would start to wonder what the heck they were doing... I prefer people not to look at me funny.
    And dealing with space... What are there... Like over 490 Pokemon now? 490 high quality voices on a 1 gig cart would take up quite a bit of space... Not much room for anything else...

  13. Re:the creationists will not like this on Ancient Star Found, Estimated at 13.2 Billion Years Old · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Maybe they will say something like: "You cannot disprove that a God exists" or maybe "It takes more faith to believe in evolution then it does to believe creation". We all know cosmological beginnings is a proven fact. The big bang has been tested and confirmed to be true in many labritories across America. They have also witnessed a monkey evolve into a human too. And you know what else? They also have also disproved the laws of entropy and made a perpetual motion generator. And with this achievement, they have discovered the secret to time travel and have sent people back in time to before the universe came into existance so that they could witness the big bang... Now they are just waiting for them to get back... Hopefully they get back before the Big Crunch... Maybe they were burned up buy the hot and dense state of the universe back then.

    "the reason for creating other things with the appearance of age is not at all clear - unless God were trying to fool us"

    Okay five posibilities (unless you believe number five then their are no choices... I tink):

    1: Human Error
    Unless you proud willing to believe that we can remotly observe something billions of lightyears away without any error at all. Even if it is true that we can, are their factors that can mess with the dating meathod they use?

    2: God created the stars mature for a purpose.
    During their helium-burning phase, very high mass stars with more than nine solar masses expand to form red supergiants. They expand in size and could possibly be used to shield the other galaxies from oncoming debris from astroids or other things when drawing it into them with their stronger gravitational field at the time indirectly protecting us from the certin doom of an astroid impact. There is also a posibility that he made them for his own enjoyment (although you are probobly not going to take that as a valid answer).

    3: The evolutionists who descovered are lying to us.
    Hey could be a posibity. Who knows what for though.

    4: Creation is a lie
    This is the one you might accept. That their is no God, only chance... Wait, would that make chance a god? This belief basicly states that creation is a fairy tale.

    5: Their is no absolute truth
    I'm thinking this one conradicts itself. Is it absolutly true that their is no absolute truth? If so how is that posibble? It has to either be true or false... Accually no it doesn't if this statement is true... Wait... What? Bah! My brain hurts O_o
    Well this absurdity would state that it doesn't matter because the universe doesn't exist and that nothing exists except for you. Well what about the person who made up this theory? Does he exist? O_o... I forgot what crackpot religion this one is. Hindu I think? Maybe buddist.

    I hope I gave a good perspective of things ^_^; Ehehe... I'm not very good at being non-biased. Well... Overview your choices.
