Pageant. Don't you use Firefox? 2.0 has a spell checker.

Wow, we hit over 1337 posts. And cC@Zz got the special one. Nice.

Wow I feel old.

I don't have a Hitler or Satan. I like all the ones I do have though. Wilford B. is a badass.

ducky285 · 01-28-2007, 10:05 PM

I made a bunch of ****ed up lookin' Miis. It's amazing what you can make with a little bit of creativity.

Telvanni_guard · 01-29-2007, 08:49 AM

Friend of mine has a Gordon Freeman Mii. There is an uncanny resemblence.

nforcer06164 · 01-29-2007, 10:58 AM

I think Wilford B. was the third Mii I made. Still one of my favorites.

I have a Christina Ricci...........................

Shut up.

Anyone played Splinter Cell yet? I've gotten mixed opinions about it.

nforcer06164 · 02-6-2007, 09:23 PM

Nintendo just sent a message to all Wiis connected via WiiConnect24. It's about wrist strap replacement. But, we all knew about that already, right?

Why would they do that? The new ones in stores have already came with the new strap haven't they?

ps I don't even use my strap. I took it off of it because it kept getting in the way during Wario Ware.

nforcer06164 · 02-7-2007, 09:53 AM

It's for replacing the smaller, weaker wrist straps. Most Wiimotes (if not all) that shipped with systems have the smaller strap. All Wiimotes purchased early have the smaller strap as well. I bought a Wiimote in January, in fact, and the smaller strap was included.

Yes, and I thought it was a pretty good game.

Although the shooting could be better. I hate aiming the way it does, I wish it was more like Zelda.

And there was 1 glitchy thing that happened to be about 2 times. It kept sounding like my character was still in water. It got quite annoying. But you just have to go back into water and then come back out for it to stop.

DDR Hottest Party.

http://orangeloungeradio.com/phpnuke...rticle&sid=704

I'm pumped about this. I hope I can use my Pad. I have A USB adapter and the Wii has USB port like.

The biggest thing I was pumped about was the way you use the Wiimote and a dance pad at the same time.

I love Emi.

**Squeek** · 02-8-2007, 09:23 AM

I heard about Hottest Party, but I'm no longer interested in DDR. They'll have to convince me that it's worthwhile.

In other news, Cooking Mama is out in Japan today. Here's hoping gameplay videos start making their way onto YouTube.

In other other news, Activision "confirmed" a Guitar Hero for Wii, giving me one less reason to buy a PS2. While it isn't completely confirmed for Wii, it's either that or DS, or both.

And honestly, the Wii has so much more potential for a Guitar Hero game. All they have to do is make a new plug-in to the Wii mote and they're set. Maybe something like those initial images from E3 with the remote in a tennis racket or a light gun?

SethSquall · 02-8-2007, 10:34 AM

Hehehe I really pumped about it dude. Specially the part where it knows if your pulling the poses and that. Seems like aright laugh.

I have read in NOM that the makers of Guitar Hero will nake it multiplatform (I think that's the word). They did say that they will release the game for all consoles apparently. Well, I'm hope that's true, any rhythm based game gets me excited. To be honest I was always quite down that Guitar Hero seemed PS2 exclusive.

nforcer06164 · 02-8-2007, 11:37 AM

Who doesn't love Emi?

I have to say that I'm at least mildly interested in the game. It's a new spin on a (dying) classic game. Maybe it'll be worthwhile?

I guess I'll hold off on getting GH2 for PS2 then. Hopefully it won't be too long... You think it'll be a port of 2 or 3?

psh... that'd be weird. The buttons wouldn't be in anywhere near the right place. I'd rather have an add-on that plugs into the wiimote. It's not like those can't sense motion as well.

Tps222 · 02-8-2007, 03:22 PM

I don't see how the Wii version will be any better than the PS2 version. Unless online gameplay is included, I won't care.

Hi afro.

If what I said wasn't clear enough:

>=^^^^^======[+ o :: :]

You get the idea. I'd rather have one solid piece than an air-guitar wii-mote.

Afrobean · 02-8-2007, 08:41 PM

Oh.

I thought you meant like those things that go around the remote to make it like other things. The steering wheel attachment comes to mind here.

By the way, I looked into it earlier and I believe they said 2008 and it would in fact be 2. So... it'll probably be more like the xbox360 port I'd think (or maybe even more stuff than that). It'd be awfully silly for them to come out with a game so much later down the road, have it be a port, and still not add any additional material.

And yeah, since it's so far away, I might just get the PS2 version. Beatmania was alright for 30$, but it really isn't holding my attention like I'd like it to.

EDIT: Couldn't they also just include a guitar that works wirelessly in the same way that the wiimote does? I'd think that would be easier to engineer than a device which plugs into the remote and fits to the shape of the remote (assuming that the device would be shaped to actually look like a guitar). But yeah, the wiimote's features would be totally unneeded for the guitar. It doesn't need the wiimote buttons, it doesn't need the accelerometers (nunchuk has it's own, so this could easily as well), it doesn't need the infrared sensor things. Really, all it would use from the remote would be it's wireless connection.
