...Am I the only one that doesn't know the backstory and would know it as soon as I saw "Azeroth"? ![]() |

| Oh, back to Solomon's Key for a second... how many games are in the series? I can only think of 4 (not counting Fire and Ice)...
- Solomon's Key (NES/SMS) - Solomon's Key (Arcade; different levels/graphics) - Solomon's Club (GB) - Monster Rancher Explorer (GBC) Both it and Lolo would be prime candidates for a DS port. |

I do feel a slight bit of envy for you guys... IF I ever get a DS then it'll probably be with MK. One of my favorite series of all time...

Is it lag-free? ![]()

...In case Chris sees it? |
You could maybe describe it... Like a teaser or something.

All I know is that my router is one of the five-star ones Nintendo listed, so if I ever end up going the DS route I'm good to go. |

Of course she will. |
...Well, I hope she does. :\ Worst case scenario would be that they'll end up on her DJ but I'm sure we're going to have a fiesta over here too.

Well, we'll have a pretty good idea on how many people come back over the weekend. Lots of the Europeans, for instance, were sleeping when the clock struck 9, so... |

On the same topic, here are a few quotes from this week's edition of Figure Four Weekly that I found leaked. I think Bryan wrote a hell of an analysis on the topic that's easy for everyone to understand... and it's all true as well.

Those who give the simplistic answer that “WWE needs to start testing for steroids again” aren’t grasping the bigger picture. The issue is far, far more complicated. In fact, it is so complicated that I don’t think there is a solution. First, and most importantly, a number of sports institutions, including the International Olympic Committee, test for steroids. Theoretically, because they test, there shouldn’t be anyone competing in the Olympics who has used performance-enhancing drugs. If you believe that this is actually the case, you are extremely naïve. There is still, to this day, no test to determine if someone is using Human Growth Hormone. Designer drugs are constantly being created with the aim being to escape detection. And when successful tests are created, new drugs follow. The major issue as it pertains to WWE, and I’m not demonizing him for this, is that Vince McMahon loves big guys. This is more than him just knowing in the back of his mind that when he did steroid testing for real in the mid-90s and everyone shrunk, his business shrunk as well. This goes much deeper. He loves big guys and I don’t think he can help himself. For the past 60 years, his entire existence, he has been surrounded by larger-than-life characters, and to him these characters equal big money, and I truly believe this is so deeply ingrained his psyche in that he’ll never be able to escape it. If, for the sake of argument, an absolutely fool-proof drug test was created tomorrow and every single person in WWE ended up clean, Vince would not all of a sudden push the best workers, or even necessarily anyone different than he is pushing now. He would still push the biggest clean guys. People will argue that in the early 90s when most of the roster was clean he moved to pushing Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels, two very talented smaller guys. That’s true, but the reason for this was also because the bigger guys, who would have been bigger on or off steroids, either quit or were fired (two in particular were fired for trying to find their way around the tests). So because Vince will always push the biggest guys, clean or not, it will always encourage the smaller guys to try to get bigger, and with big money at stake, and the realities of gaining mass on the road, this will always result in them looking for ways to beat the tests. ...And ultimately, just looking at steroid use is too simplistic. Eddy Guerrero’s coroner hasn’t stated outright that Eddy’s enlarged heart was due to steroid abuse, and whether he took steroids or not, he was still likely to have died young because he abused his body with various substances for a long time, and that was no secret. There are plenty of wrestlers who have only taken steroids and are still fine today after decades of use. I’m not about to say they’re safe, because the reality is that anything that messes with your heart is dangerous, and the steroid/recreational drug combo appears to have killed a lot of wrestlers. What I’m saying is that the problem is not strictly a steroid issue; it is a drug issue.

As I've said before, I'm not doing ACS until December 1 so if anyone decides to post solely for that reason... Tough. |
Tom didn't help Xk with any coding that I know of and has nothing to do with any of this.

At least the board's being developed again.
|
What would you rather prefer; active development or seeing it slow to a halt?

Sonic Adventure... enough said.
|
I've only seen it in action but it looks very nice. I like how they use both screens to show the levels which might reduce the number of blind leaps of faith you take. It's Sonic and it's 2D, so it likely isn't a bad combo at all. Reviewers certainly think so.

I thought they learned their lesson in the NES days with Jaws... XD Final Fantasy IV Advance comes out on December 12th and that'll just be strange to see especially if you can swap party members and all that... Sudoku's coming out next year for the GBA as well.
