worst news ever =( gamecube delayed, poo! new launch colors though

Give the new Zelda a chance. I watched the footage this morning. While the Mario footage offered pretty much what is expected (finely textured polygons, wide splash of colour, clarity and sharpness), the Zelda footage was what caught my eye. At first, just like you, I thought, "WTH? is...

<< Not to mention Metriod Prime looks shockingly similar to Diakatana, ok just the green wasp, but Id hardly say it had good graphics. Talk about banking on the name, hope it plays extremely well... Im sorry I know Zelda, Mario, and Metriod are supposed to sell games, but Zelda and Metriod...

how do u know when a guy is just trying to be nice....

Casually come up with an excuse that involves your BF. For example, "No I'm sorry [Nick], I have to go out with my bf on that day. Did you still want to go on another day?" THIS way, you can casually inform him that you do indeed have a bf, without coming across as egocentric or...

Have a big paper due, how do I concentrate?

OK Guys I'm heading to work. I'm moving all my books to somewhere quiet away from the comp., as suggested. I'll report back in a little while with my progress. If you get any other suggestions, post them--because I'll come back and check during my breaks (better not take too many of those) SQ

Have a big paper due, how do I concentrate?

This paper is due by Friday and it's 10 pages in length. I am notorious for a marked inability to concentrate and read a book for up to even 15 minutes at a time. What would you suggest I could do to improve my concentration? - Drink a coffee? - Turn on light music (what kinds of...

Poll: How much of a slacker are you?

No way, buds. I'm NOT understating this one. I am in big time back-to-the wall situation here. What I didn't mention was that I have 4 more essays to complete after this one. All due this Friday. And I've got to work on Wed and Thurs for 5 hours each day. That means I have little more...

Need advice on a sweet/romantic thing to do for a girl?

Why not just try calling the friend of your "dreamgirl" again? It's only been two days. Sometimes, it can take a while before a message gets across to the other person, especially when you're having to go through someone else. If it takes any more then a week or a week and a half...

Wonderful job opportunity!

I would think that the position would require some background in politics and clerical duties. For example, it's requested at the bottom of the page to: *Please give some educational background information. i.e. year in school, educational goals or major (if in college), and particular...

Who here feels irratated by pop culture lately?

I think I began to get tired of it a few years ago, when the Backstreet Boys first took flight. Actually, it wasn't quite as arduous at that time because they were a new and upcoming group, and they hadn't yet released any of their awful singles like "Backstreet's Back" and...

Will you buy a GameCube?

So true, NJ Artist. From the analog controls, the 3D platform, to the idea of the Rumble Pak, Nintendo is and always has been the pioneer. Mario 64 was a classic example of a Nintendo product serving as the archetypal creation that all others would follow. Man, you played the entire Mario...

Why r u still up?

I'm supposed to be doing a paper on changing perspectives of Feminism, but I"m procrastinating as usual. Alas, Simone de Beauvoir is awaiting. Anyone that has any ideas to contribute to the paper would be most welcome. SQ

Will you buy a GameCube?

I would if I had the $, but tuition, gas and social (i.e. gf) costs are too high. The other thing is, I'm no longer an avid gamer as I was up to age 13 (grade 8). Before that, I used to play the NES and Super NES obsessively. I was a master of Mario Kart and Street Fighter II (two of the best...

What type of internet do you have?

Cable, probably an "average-speed" connection though. It doesn't seem that fast, but I know that cable speed varies between location, server and the company (Shaw Cable).
