Master: Do you see the candle on the table, you must put it out using only your energy.
Student: What energy master?
Master: Do you not feel the energy within me? You must learn to use that for yourself.
Student: I think I understand master.
Student grabs the master and slings him ontop of the table and the candle falls to the floor.
Master: Get out of my class!
I remember the last time people were expecting a great new FPS game to come out and it was called Halo. I think Sir Carmack is much more loyal than that though so I guess its not worth worrying about.
The main offering is the initial kit for the game and headphones including a year of service. After that is over its 9.99 a month.
"The main offering will cost roughly $50 for a year of service. Installment plans of roughly $10 per month will also be available."
One of the reasons Sony is not charging per month for online gaming is because of the amount of MMORPGs coming out for it. I'm sure as heck not gonna pay 49.99 for a game, 9.99 for MS "content", and then 9.99 for the game.
These guys are the worst to me. When I was graduating from highschool I would get atleast 2 or 3 calls a week from the Marines/Navy/Army. The Army wanted to come to my house and show me videos, uh no thanks. Now the marines tried to convince me going to college was a waste of time. They kept asking what seperates me from all the other people out there. The cocky person I am, I said well i'm just better than them. I still get calls from them every now and then, but now I know its them. The next time they call i'm gonna say sure, as soon as you guys catch Bin Laden.
I hate telemarketers they call out the time, but I never answer because of my caller id. Well, I experienced something new a few weeks ago. Phone spam. Having enough experience with spam I didn't fall for it, but my parents did. My caller ID read Moneyclaims or something like that. Well, I knew it was a telemarketer. My dad did not. So he calls them and gets a recording saying go to a website. So he tells me go to the site so he can get his money that someone owes. I'm like, sure...
So I go to the site and what do I see, two pairs of large breast staring at me. My parents were shocked, but I laughed out in glee. I said I told you so and they stopped bothering me.
One great thing about Square and its money making power, is that every now in then it can afford to try to do something different. The movie was a big failure, but from the look of things this game is already a hit in Japan. A few server problems will not destroy Square's chances. Many American MMORPG all had startup problems, but still managed to become a hit. Some consoles have had horrible launches over there and still have the largest installed base. However, the real reason is because it is Final Fantasy. It and Dragon Quest, are some of the most popular games over there. Its like Star Wars over here. You hear all these people talking about play the Star Wars MMORPG. Why, because its Star Wars.
My favorite games are RPG's and this basically what I play on the console. I won't buy an X-Box unless I see some must have ones on there. Morrowind isn't gonna do it, I already have it for my PC. Gamecube has pretty much assured itself it will have some by working with Square and Playstation2 already has a lot, though not all great. RPG's aren't the only games that come out of Japan, but they are still important. Also, Japanese gamers aren't gonna buy an X-Box to play American RPGs if they wanted to do that they would get a PC.
What MS needs is a bigger piece of the pie over in Japan. As of right now, the X-Box is basically a N64 with even less Japanese support. Sports games aren't gonna win over Japan. It's like that Simpson's episode where all the signs and giant billboard things come to life. If you remember the way that got rid of them was not looking at them and ignoring them. This is what the Japanese are doing to MS over there.
I'm sitting here in front of my computer with Friends on the tv next to me. I've been unemployed for months and I don't even think I got my shoes on the right feet. Do I care if someone knows this? Nope, but what i'd really like to know is who ate my last bag of cheetos!

No, he is the General Manager of the Chicago Whitesox.
At first glance I thought the topic said Transgaming and Transvestites. Thats one untouched genre I hope stays untouched.

Your theory is sound, don't forget about them getting in a little "action" when the female characters are on screen.
I'm to busy looking for hookers to think about all that other stuff. :)
I'll probably go see Episode2, but Matrix2 is the one I really want to see.
