General 'whatever'.

Ok so yeah. I'm upset. Disney announced that they are going to close lucasarts. And instead if developing games they will license it out. That in itself isn't so bad, but they are also canceling current protects like 1313 and battle front assault.

Out of curiosity, was Peter Jackson's version of Lord of the Rings an insult to the UK? Or was it just an enjoyable movie? What are your thoughts on this?

all names come from somewhere. through various modes of research we can discover the true meaning of our names. I've long known the meaning of my first name, xxx. it means xxx. I decided to check my other names today though. my second name xxx, is from xxx. my family name is Kendrick and comes from old welsh ap cynwrig. ap means 'child of' and cynwrig is a given name derived from celtic words meaning 'the likeness of a heroic chief' so it's all rather nice and I do so love my names. essentially my full names means 'xxx of the heroic chief' and it is all derived from my culture.. sort of. well gaelic is a branch off of celtic so they are very closely r…

Someone -actually- used a helicopter to break out of prison? For real?! Cool. Stupid, but cool. This just made the news interesting: http://news.ca.msn.com/top-stories/quebec-manhunt-on-for-fugitives-who-fled-prison-in-helicopter

I was looking around after using the search function, and I'm surprised that there isn't really a sports discussion topic here. Even Twilight Lexicon (which is dominated by women/girls) has a sports topic that's been fairly active. But I was a bit surprised that there wasn't one here. Of course, I'm not a big one for stick and ball sports--I was never good at that stuff for one thing--but I've been a motorsports fan most of my life. Of course, it can be argued that motorsports isn't a sport per se because of no use of a ball and no use of the human body aside from operating that throttle and brakes, and the steering wheel. But when you consider that drivers of Le …

heard a rumour the other day, a new xmen movie in the works. will the story be some what similar to the anime which carried the same title? if so, would like to see how they plan on resurrecting half the group since deciding to kill them off in number3. only caught a small glimpse of this, so keeping my eyes and ears wide open for any leaks. comiccon in town this weekend, wasn't really thinking of going, but after hearing this, might have to just in case something is said or revealed.

Has anyone else heard of this band? They make awesome gaming songs.

Weeeeell I was just surfing the web as always and was curious on the status of the Amazing Spider-Man 2 movie and came upon with some cool and unexpected news so I decided to open a new thread to discuss this movie since as you guys know I'm a fan of spidey and will jump at the chance to discuss anything related to him so here it goes: Things known about this sequel: -All previous actors from the first movie will return to reprise their roles minus the guys who play the Lizard and Captain Stacy. -Peter Parker will find new clues about his past so it looks like they have not dropped the parents side story yet. -Harry Osborn will be featured in this movie…

The purpose of this thread is to give an insight into Japan's neighbour South Korea. Also known as Republic of Korea or ROK, and in Japan known as 韓国ã€ã‹ã‚“ã“ãã€KANKOKU。 Please ask any questions about anything you are curious about and I'll endeavour to answer. I will also try and post my videos in here. I'm not quite in Korea yet, I am waiting for my first flight to Dubai. Second flight will take me to Incheon airport in Seoul.

Me and my friends were watching the show Skins from the UK, and we were getting confused about whether the kids were in high school or college. I also keep seeing in animes about how there are school entrance exams to seemingly get into high school.So, I wonder how school systems are set up around the world.

Has anybody played this game yet? what are your thoughts on it story-wise? from what I have seen the game is terrible and the story screws up with the Aliens legacy and what bothers me is that it was approved to be cannon by Fox....ugh..did they even look at the games story before approving it? not to mention the freaking plot twist that they put in the story where in a certain part you save a survivor from the original Aliens movie and it is not who you would logically think it be, NO!! it just opens up too many questions, want to know who it is? it is here is a trailer of the game and an honest review from one of my favorite game reviewers out there. …

It's gotten to a stage where I think I can tell you guys what is going on for me. I am currently waiting for my South Korean E2 working visa to be processed. When I receive my visa I will be flying to South Korea where I will be teaching English for at least a year. I will still be a British citizen of course, but my 'home' will be South Korea. Some of you know, some of you may have guessed. It's a pretty big change and it's been difficult for me to process properly. What does it mean for the site...? Well I will be on-line at different times and possibly less frequently due to work. I'm not sure how I will be able to operate since I need to learn how …

hey all, I did some design work for a guy I know in Japan, take a look at the video he produced using the design -

The purpose of this thread if for anybody to contribute their opinions of what MMO's are great and what to avoid also anybody can ask if X game is worth playing so I'll start cause ever since I watched SOA and Accel world I have been curious on what MMO I should play so here is the requirements for the type of game that I'm looking for: Free to play (I don't have a budget to get a good game with a subscription fee so this is my only choice at the moment) Good character customization with lots of classes and races Not pay to win (meaning if there are micro-transactions they don't make you better than a person who does not pay) good story easy to play with friends good …

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlJiT_sWT7Q'> This review is so sad and nit-picky that is must be shared. I even want Ed Boon to see this, so that I tweeted about it. I want to see/read his reaction. Also want comments for the lack of logic especially at the end.

i need a new samurai comic to read and saw the reviews on Vagabond.Miyamoto.Musash looks just up my street anybody read this or reading something similar, Always liked the traditional samurai like lone wolf .

This is a general thread about South Korea. I just thought it would be cool to talk about what everyone thinks of South Korea. What do you think of when somebody mentions south Korea. what are they famous for? have you ever visited? I thought it would be interesting to talk about it since a lot of K-pop is very popular all over Asia and of course in Japan. And of course Gangam style became very popular recently. It's also worth noting that Korea have become almost like world leaders in online gaming systems. The online game for Dragonball is being developed in South Korea.

Well, nintendo has started announcing their new batch of games coming for the WiiU and for the looks of it there will be a sequel or spiritual successor to the game Xenoblade chronicles, the video shows a very similar gameplay mechanic as Xenoblade and at the end of the video you see a character that looks similar to Shulk, frankly I'm super exited to see more of this game and it is yet another reason for me to get a WiiU.

Would anyone mind that is fluent in Japanese translating something for me from English to Japanese? I would like to say something like The School of The Mighty Dragon God. I know this is really random to ask, but I am trying to create a stable for my wrestling game and I am trying to come up with a really cool name for it.

Just wondering if any of you guys have seen any Eddie Lebron's fan films. One's Mega Man which is pretty good, and he just came out with a Sonic one that's alright.

for those who don't know Death Battle is an internet show where they do analysis of characters from different types of media and pits them against an equal foe (usually) they use all the canonical source material of each character in order to find out who would win in a fight then they create an animated fight to demonstrate the results. The only constant rules they keep on the show is that characters can't have outside help and if a character has a personality trait that prevents him from killing (like batman or spider-man) they eliminate that since there can be only one winner. anyways I bring this up cause they have just released arguably one of the most controversial …
