I have 6 more days of powerschool left. Ive already accrued enough points that I basically can fail the last three tests and still graduate.
i am now pretty much fully versed on the ancient and eldrich art of doodads. fear me.
also, butts.
I hope you die an ironic death to doodads
I hope you go away forever.
In a funny manner.
Like being rocketted out of a cannon.
And here I thought I'd see the "Still Alive" lyrics. =/
too hipster for poco
poco what
still alive rrrrrr geeks ran that **** into the ground
Matt Miller has yet to be brutally murdered by the terrorists he bravely opposes each and every day.
*****es dont know bout my super powers
my pay is about to pretty much double in 10 days. wewt.
Save them bucks. It's jsut a few short months to Camaro and Genesis Coupe times!
also wb fivehead
Matt Miller's awwright.
lol that wus randum! xD
huh, and come to think of it I was 13 when I first played ffvii. wait no 14. ah man, good times.
I was also 13 when I played it. Might've been one of my christmas presents that year actually. Still didn't enjoy it back then.
matt miller
I sure did!!!!!!!!!!!!
matt miller
you know what was a good playstation christmas present? Ape Escape. Played that game from start to finish in one sitting on christmas morning. Good times.
also, matt miller
I remember beating Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon in one sitting. Though that's mainly because I didn't have a memory card. Loved that game.
love matt miller
I actually played and finished that game in the week I had to be at my stepmom's office. One of the few games I brought along with me since they had an N64 in the breakroom.
I also beat Beautiful Katamari in one sitting. Fuuuuuuuuk
I almost beat Tales of Symphonia in one setting. Marathon grind session of epicness.
WELL THATS PRETTY COOL I GUESS
BUT MY VIDEO GAME DICK IS BIGGER
I beat every game ever in one sitting.
urrrghghhghghghg ape escape. MISS THAT GAME.
Speaking of games from around that time, I got a used copy of Jet Moto 3 last night. ONLY RACING GAME THAT mattERS miller
I only liked the 1st one. game was so awesome.
[quote=Linko_16;873445][COLOR=indigo]I beat every game ever in one sitting.[/COLOR]
dude shut up there's no way you beat the third level of the lion king for the genesis
**** THOSE OSTRICHES
and the one level with the huge rock that you could LAUCH OFF OF. not sure why we had so much fun with that thing.
Because if you did enough tricks in one jump, some cowboy would go "YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWW!!!!"
does the first one have purple plasma grappling devices?
you boys seem to be forgetting
DIDDY
KONG
RACIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING
There's no Jet in that title.
AND that game sucked
whats wrong could the lil baby not beat the silver coin challenges
I was still playing Mario Kart with my friends, and MK is vastly superior when it comes to MP.
Jet Motto 1 was good, and so was Diddy Kong racing if only for the planes. Mario Kart was also good. Three cheers to everything.
Jet Force Gemini.
**** yes, that game was so hyped to **** back in the day. Ended up being pretty good.
I loved that game. ****, I was playing that while waiting for 1999 to turn into 2000. I was feeding fish on the first level in some secret little alcove.
Never beat the last boss though. **** being young!
It took me a while to remember exactly what game that was... I knew a kid who had it, and we played probably around 10 times all together. the best of times
[quote=Vampiro V. Empire;873909]**** yes, that game was so hyped to **** back in the day. Ended up being pretty good.it was good until that ****ty collectathon at the end. put the card in my rack and never looked back.
racing games are fun. you know whats more fun? actually driving.
fags.
yes because i often get the opportunity to drive super cars at 120mph through oncoming traffic while going neck and neck with other drivers
the army has turned you into a fag, you know that right
when are you going to trot out the guitar hero argument
b-b-b-but why play a fighting game when you could go into the street and punch someone yourself for free
You know what's even cooler than driving? Running! Et cetera.
Not to mention the majority of it costs a ****load of money. And/or will get you a prison sentence.
shooting games? why not go to iraq faggot :rolleyes:
look at what matt miller has done with just one post.
HOWEVER, sports games. might have a point in regards to those. YEAH MADDENNNNNNN
He came, posted, and the ripples from the post nearly tore DA apart.
and you might be fat
yeah, that would do it too.
Or like, if I wanna play hockey or something. road hockey isn't the same as hockey, and good luck getting a decent rink in august.
racan games are about, you know, racan not drivan. enjoy your boring driving
wait... you mean you can go drivan without racan? what the hells the point in that?
besides, even just drivan on a bike feels like racan most of the time.
except you're not really racing against anyone.
...lol.
you obviously have never truely embraced the spirit of drivan
pretending to race against a minivan full of kids and a businessman on the phone isn't racing. It's you pretending to race against people completely unaware of what you're doing.
Yeah, cuz its not like i know a ****ton of guys around here with bikes that enjoy just getting on the highway and going nowhere.
durr hurrrrrr
cause that's the same as racing right? which is illegal. Which means I highly doubt you'll be pushing it.
IDK, where I live it's possible to drive for an hour or more and never see a police officer.
that's impossible here. christ, once I stopped to look at the river in the moonlight (I was feeling a little GAY, okay?) for a few minutes and right as I was leaving a patrol dude was just getting there, slowing down like a badass. and in town it's common to see 3 or more cops in like a half-hour of driving.
funny, but not actually racing.
2GRIM2FURRYUS: ST CATHARINES DRIFT
oh, well I have raced a friend down one of the main streets in town for aways. going about 80 in a 45mph street. FUN STUFF.
holy **** did you see that rusty old van cut off the x-series in the inside lane
monster kill, bro
my rusty ol' van would break down if I tried to rev it
My current car does hardcore rpm in first gear, even when I'm only feathering the gas. Not sure why, because it's only a slight step up from a soccer mombile.
man, you could get a race anywhere here. just pull up alongside a mexican.
hot dog carts dont make very good competition for my corsa sorry
Only time I can break the speed limit by a large margin is on the highway. But that's only because the cops are going, like, 50 miles over the limit so they couldn't give a ****.
It'd be extra funny if one cop pulled over another, speeding, cop and gave him a ticket.
does america have a law where if you're caught racing or stunting your car is immediately taken away?
stunting?
[IMG]http://www.funny-potato.com/images/stunt-accident/stunt-car.jpg[/IMG]
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAW
anything stunt related. Racing, going over a certain speed, doing donuts, burnouts, etc.
pig-disgusting americans drive automatics, they cant do burnouts
unless holding down the gas and shifting from park to drive is considered a burnout these days
sounding pretty exoxile there buddy.
That's the same for here. I think it's, like, 40-50 kilometers over the limit no matter what and you get a stunting ticket, immediately lose your license and get your car jacked yo.
[quote=mis0;874864]"Tranny slams", as they're known, are neutral to drive, not all the way from park. What do you think would happen if the old slushbox grabbed reverse on the way over? having never seen an automatic transmission in my life, i assumed park was neutral
I had a manual for a while and hated it, but looking back, that may have only been my hate of the car it was installed in.
I always set the e-brake. :/
They're super uncommon here, to the point where you have a partially-retarded license if you pass your test in one. I've never known anyone who drives one, or even seen one for that matter. Been driving manual all my life.
Huh. They teach us on autos because they want us to "focus on the road, not the car." Which, I'm actually inclined to agree with somewhat. Stupid teenagers are probably better of in an auto if they're not abusing the simplicity of it by talking on their cell phones, etc.
yet another reason im looking forward to getting my bike: control of the revs.
but **** msi0, if the speed limits are that lax out there i might have to go check it out. maybe pwn your *** in a race or two ;)
oh, and im moving into my house probably tomorow night. not sure when the electricity and internetz will be set up, but once it is ill at leats have the ability to post. granted, ill be working rotating 12 hour shifts, so ill be on at all sorts of weirdass hours, but hey, better than nothing.
what in heck's name is an ebrake
Is that anything like a handbrake?
I think so...
If it secures the car then yes.
E-brake? Why can't countries use the same word for stuff?
Emergency brake. I dunno why they call it that, really.
Figured it might be something like that.
e-brake is the superior word. Handbrake. ****ing stupid.
As far as I know, it's the same thing as a handbrake, to answer someone's earlier question.
EDIT - Ninja'd. I don't really care what it's called, though I don't really know if I'd ever end up using it in an emergency.
actually, it's called a slide stick around here anyways. so whatever
though e-brake makes sense, since, you know, it's supposed to be used (iirc) when the real brake decides to stop working.
"I drive a lot of rental cars; I dont always know whats going on with them. Sometimes I drive for a few miles with the emergency brake on. That doesnt really say a lot about me, but it really doesnt say much for the emergency brake. Its really more of an emergency make-the-car-smell-funny lever."
sleep well, gentle prince
Doesn't the e-brake not work particularly well when the actual brake is still operational?
The emergency brake only meant to be used when the car is parked to prevent it from rolling away, in the event that it slips out of gear (auto only; always necessary on a manual). You certainly can use it while moving to slide around corners and stuff if you have a fairly taut, hand-operated e-brake, but in terms of actual vehicle-stopping performance, you'd likely crash in the event of a brake system failure because at anything but a very low speed, it's pretty much worthless.
Like I said, with an autobox, you don't even technically need it, because a metal rod locks the transmission in place. Manual transmissions need them because the only thing preventing the car from moving is the resistance of the engine through the transmission, that's it. On a steep enough hill, the resistance between the engine and transmission will be overcome by gravity, and sans brake, the car rolls away.
As for why they don't call them handbrakes in the states - it's because they're not always hand operated. A lot of cars with automatic transmissions have a pedal a few inches to the left of where you would expect to find a clutch pedal that operates the brake. Possibly strange to eurolanders as well would be the column-mounted shift levers on many American automatic cars. My old Buick had both of those.
Personally, I always set the e-brake before letting my foot off the brake, as it's necessary when driving a stick, and once you do, it's hard to go back.
HANDBRAKE IS NOT A STUPID NAME
IT IS A BRAKE THAT IS OPERATED BY YOUR HAND
WHAT IS STUPID ABOUT THAT
everything
*applies handbrake so he can get out of his car and KIK UR A[COLOR=Silver]SS[/COLOR]*
applies slide stick to do a sweet 360 spin
**** bro thats a x2 multiplier for your burning route stunt run
*flips out like dj atomika*
I have pretty much everything completed in that game except stunt runs. I couldn't be any worse at them.
The new cars in Cagney are sweet as hell, especially the boostless one. I'm trying to get the online race achievements, but I suck at the 'drive whatever way you want' driving style in this game.
Oh yeah, I'm still meaning to download that update. What's it have anyways?
Some new cars, 70 new challenges, redesigned airstrip, adds a new frontend menu, bug fixes and the ability to customize your own races (finally we can do that freeway race we used to want).
There's some other **** too, but I forgot.
Oh, that's pretty sweet! Does willeth still play the **** out of it?
We played the day it launched, but since then, haven't seen him.
Too busy playing his arcade games I bet
BRAID
I played Braid today. I don't get it.
Gonna pick up some points and buy GeoWars 2 and Galaga when it comes out. The dude who made Braid is like "waaaa I'm poor buy my game" so I'm not gonna.
That and it doesn't seem like I'll get any replayability at all out of it, which kinda defeats the purpose of arcade games imo.
BUT DONT YOU SEE
ITS ART
GAMES... AS ART
I don't get why people say that. it's got nice backgrounds, but otherwise I don't see anything overly artistic about it.
Probably all the ****ty poetry and stuff that shows up between levels. Other than that I just felt it was a 2D Sands of Time with the Jiggie puzzles from Banjo-Kazooie in between.
Way different from sands of time and the concept is good (can't die, constantly changing time modes, etc) but it seems like a 10 buck game at the most.
I didn't get it for the same reason in that it doesn't seem to have good replayablity. I'll maybe get Galaga Legends and I'm getting Castle Crashers for sure the week after.
Oh yeah, Castle Crashers is what I meant to get. Even if CC didn't have replayability, the fact that you can play it with buds over the internet make it infinitely more desirable. Costs the same too, doesn't it?
15 bux. but in this case well worth the price.
why must i be poor right now
WHY
I was rich when **** like Beautiful Katamari was out WHYYYYYYYY
was beautiful katamari really that bad?
Beat it in a day, played it for two more to get achievements. Not bad, but not worth 30 britdollars.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with it if it's your first time with the game. Otherwise it's literally the exact same game as the PS2 games.
I remember the first time I played the first one. took me a minute or two to figure out it took BOTH sticks to move the **** thing. but hey, I liked the first one, and if it's like that, then maybe I'll get it if I find it for a low enough price.
you'll definitely find it for a low price
what're you buying... stranger
eh, kinda wishing I hadn't got mass effect. don't really like it so far.
I didn't like it at first either. It gets better the more you become familiar with the gameplay.
seems shoddy at best.
I think I raged at the game and didn't play it for a week when I got to the giant Geth AT-AT thing outside where Liara was and couldn't beat it.
Nah, the game is ****ing awesome. You just have to level up and not play soldier. I'd I'm going to assume you've gotten past the first Citadel area.
Play as an Adept and you will love the game. FROZEN AERIAL CORPSES
BARRIER, LIFT, STASIS, SINGULARITY, BARRIER, WARP, STASIS, THROW everything is dead
by 75% mark you have unlimited barrier and stasis regenerates before it even wears off. Un***ly killing machine.
