I enjoyed this dumb, fun rental way back when. lol
And I think if there were no women left, the straight guys would probably stop destroying each other if anything; just kinda throw our hands up and say, "eh." lol I do not remember a storyline to this game at all, but it sounds like some good tongue-in-cheek goofiness.
I actually really loved my rental of this one when I was little, but oh well. I think it had more to do with the exotic titular car than gameplay itself.
Yeah, SSX is a lot more arcadey, so I preferred it as well.
I loved SSX Tricky, so fun; you should definitely get it if you're interested. Never played Amped, I don't think; maybe I have and don't remember, my neighbors did have an Xbox and played snowboarding games.
I also have Snowboard Kids 2 for N64. I forget what other snowboarding titles I've played.
I may just have to check this out if I ever get the chance. Funny how a licensed game based on a property I know very little about can be so good.
Was the Commencement Speech given by Roger Ebert? lol
I wonder what that superindendent did in his free time, or did he not believe in the concept? Unfortunately, in college, when I was still an Assistant Hall Director, I felt limited in who I could go out and have a good time with by the fish bowl nature of my job; mostly, I'd just grab a drink with a coworker after a particularly stressful week. Tell that guy I found out that networking I would have done if I'd not felt that limitation, turns out, is actually fairly relevant to getting a job in reality land. I don't think the 100+ places I applied to prior to my current freelance cared I was Magna Cum Laude and had managerial experience. ... I also should have learned to speak Spanish fluently, but that's besides the point. haha
The movies I was able to see and games I was able to play kept me sane when I couldn't get sleep cause a thousand 18 year olds decided to be a jackass all at once.
Cool of your brother to sing and play at graduation like that.
I've been ok with a few JRPGs, like Pokemon, Golden Sun, and Mario RPGs, but even then I wouldn't say they were my favorites. I'm sure FFVII is great, I just can't really get into the genre.
Found you with a Google search, but apparently the add friend button doesn't work until I add games to my profile. 
I need to read Hitchhiker's Guide; so many in-jokes.
For now, though:
Favorite Sci-Fi Book: Ender's Game
Movie: 2009 Star Trek
Video Game: Star Fox 64
Comic Book: I bought my ex-gf a comic book by Dark Horse that was a prequel examining Darth Vader's rise to power for her birthday last year, so even though I hadn't read it, I guess I'll say that.
That pissed my brother off SOOOO much when he rented from Blockbuster and they only gave it to you one disc at a time, plus I think there was a code on the CD case you needed that wasn't on those Blockbuster cases. lol
Oh, and I thought you might like this.
