I watched the 1up Let's Play where Jose Otero and ... the other guy, played both the SNES Sparkster and this Genesis game. They didn't get very far in this one, if I recall.

I agree with your side rant though, things are getting a little too shit-gritty looking for my tastes. I like dark stories, but you can still use more colors than grey and black in your color pallette.

Nice Dr. Strangelove nod there, too. lol I'll have to play this one myself some time.

Open Office is a free alternative to Word, and it worked well for me when I downloaded it after having to reformat one of my laptops.

Uuuhhhh ... there was this one time I kept beating everyone in line at an arcade by just rapid pressing buttons using Yoshimitsu in Tekken; so basically I was more like one of your asshole new friends. lol

We did have a rule in Goldeneye though: physically abuse the motherfucker that kept getting a hold of the golden gun, especially if he was the one that suggested it be allowed.

I have heard of Lilly Allen, her "Fuck You" song was popular when I was in high school. Kate Nash I've heard of, but I don't really know her music.

Goldfrapp I've never actually heard of, but I'll have to check them out.

Yeah, without a strategy guide, I would have never gotten the masks I do have in Majora, so I can easily see getting pissed if I was in unspoken competition with someone having that advantage. lol

What capture device did you use by the way? I still have XP, and might want to start capturing game footage.

As I said on someone's 1up blog about it, I hadn't even thought of that as a reason to hate DL-Only games, but it's an obvious reason, and now I have another one. No physical copies is stupid. And holy shit that customer service text Greenman posted. Wow.

My major in college was radio/TV, and there actually were quite a few radio jobs in Houston, TX I applied to through Clear Channel and another company, but despite graduating Magna Cum Laude and having been a DJ at my college station, which broadcast to two cities (KSAU, Nacogdoches, Lufkin), I didn't get shit. I was a Psychology minor though, and am still considering higher education there. Did not know we had that in common.

I actually do like IGN for entertainment news (especially since they have other things besides games), but yeah, I'm rarely on there either; more like facebook than a blog site, community-wise. At least now we know about the game, though.

Couple's Mask, most likely; it's the one that always gets me too.

I don't know about FFVIII, seeing as I don't play turn-based RPGs, but I do hate when I don't get that ONE item I need to progress, and it wasn't clear I needed it.

I was a late adopter for both this and OoT, and yeah, it can get hard to find time to sit down and actually play these ... MM is way worse though, because of that time mechanic. lol

I don't have to tell you beating OoT is well worth it.
