@Kamasama: That's too bad, they were reporting he'd been killed earlier. Still, rotting away in prison is good enough.

Nothing special. All countries have this shit. Seriously you waste your time on this?

JakJ commented on BloodRedReaper's Topic Music I own (12"LPs) ALWAYS UPDATED! 10:47PM
I've started collecting vinyl myself. It's really a different connection to your music. Listening to a platter with the sound waves of the music physically engraved on them is infinitely cooler than listening to a lame-ass MP3.  Check out the Foxboro Hottubs - Stop Drop and Roll!!! - it's the perfect retro accompaniment to any vinyl collection.

From what's coming out of the news, it seems that bitch just didn't want to be deployed to Iraq. Makes me wonder why he was in the Army in the first place. If you signed up during the past 9 years you must know where you're probably going to end up.

JakJ replied to the topic Hey kids who wants to Learn about Quakers ? 12:54AM
@turbomonkey138: Don't worry about it man. People educated themselves when they want to, but I respect you for trying. My parents brought me to Quaker meetings when I was very little, as it was the main faith of the community where I grew up, before moving away when I was 9. I remember the silence (though it was more like 15-30 mins instead of an hour), and at the end we ...

@Black_Rose: Save your time, the guy's not American. Only the most disgusting examples of our people and our politicians (one and the same, really) would ever utter something so ignorant and ridiculous.

The more I see and hear from Dave the more I love him. Is he considered part of the gang yet? How long before we start saying "Jeff, Ryan, Vinny, Brad, and Dave?"

Anyone else start giggling when Kratos ripped out that eyeball then tore that guy's head off? I had forgotten how awesomely violent GoW is.

If you like hamburgers you can get a free gamerpic from McDonalds. At 64x64 it looks more or less like a regular hamburger, too!
JakJ replied to the topic Leanring a new song. 11:45PM
Hehe I hear ya. I just gave up, got an electric guitar and started playing pop songs that use mostly power chords (ie: all of them). Bitches love pop songs :)
JakJ replied to the topic To Tweet? 11:41PM
If you're interested in what they have to say, go for it. You don't have to have followers or provide anything interesting yourself if you don't want to.  On the other hand, like most social things (facebook, forums, etc) it is a massive and ultimately pointless waste of time. Try considering both and see which way the scale tips.
JakJ replied to the topic Can you play older games? 11:36PM
@Diamond: That's true, but to continue on with the Star Wars analogy, truely great and lasting games of similar quality and importance to the medium only come along once every couple of years or so. I interpreted the topic as "can you play any old game," which is what I've based that rather unpopular theory off of. Though re-reading it it's clear the topic creator uses the fantastic Half Life ...

@Diamond: I didn't say you were a snob. I don't know you. You are just acting like one.   What kind of person doesn't want to play a good game just because it's old? Someone with limited free time who likes games and would rather play one of the many good modern ones, for starters. Gaming is entertainment, nothing more. The fact of the matter is most people would rather be ...

Alright guys,

K-Mart is selling the Rock Revolution drum kit + game for $17 (and the stand-alone game for $20, go figure). Is that still too much, or is it worth a go? I recently picked up GH: Aerosmith at the same K-Mart for $9, and felt I got my money's worth (it is just classic GH with new songs, after all, I consider it cheap DLC). Now I'm curious to try out RR, if just to see how bad it is.

Is it wise to invest that money on another huge-ass drum kit? Is it environmentally ethical to buy another huge piece of plastic only with the intent of throwing it away a few months down the line? Has any one PLAYED the game and can give a more in-depth assessment of it than 'It sucks"?

Thanks!

Yesterday, while accepting a party invite from a friend, it froze and just wouldn't turn on again. Hitting the power button causes the power light to come on, but it doesn't do its startup sequence with the ring of light flashing around it. The console just sits there. Like a zombie. After about 3 minutes, there's a chance it will begin flashing the RRoD. Otherwise, it will just sit in its pre-startup limbo until turned off.
