Heh heh, try to put down those that oppose you in belief? Why don't you just let people like whatever they like? Appropriate that you make it a sect or a church cause you're treating such a silly thing so religiously


There are plenty of sects who do that in the world. Just tonight, I saw a current affairs program which had an article on the Exclusive Brethren (Plymouth Brethren) in an Aussie town. They think the outside world is so evil, they're willing to break up families and tell children their daddy or mummy is evil, and so they can't see them, even though said parent is actually a good person, and the courts say so.

Does the word "Jonestwon" mean anything to you, MarieElana?

And you're a relative newcomer to Wrong Planet, so you wouldn't know about the "Church" wars that were initiated mainly by OWA. His "Church of Garlic" won because he was more persistent and annoying than the "Church of Mustard".

And everyone thinks about death and fears it :P


I have never been through a house fire in the morning. However, I have had my bonnet flip up on my car and smash my windscreen thanks to someone reversing into it previously, on a main road. I had nearly come into mortal combat with my own father, thanks to his inability to acknowledge me as a human being. I have seen family members die from age and disease, and others turn their backs on my mother, myself, and my brother because of their loyalty to my father, who is a bastard, and whose claims to love me, my brother and my mother are very much exaggerated, if not completely false. And I came to a horrifying realisation about death in a very bad convergence of circumstance of circumstance: my coming off antidepressants, and the death of Steve Irwin. So don't think of it as exaggerated macho posturing. My fear, and how often I contend with it, is very real. That is why I do not want ahayes to commit suicide over this sort of thing, as that is the weakest of human will. Dying's easy. Living's harder. And remember that President Kennedy said that the US wouldn't go to the moon because it was easy, but because it was hard.

I had a look at details for the wii, xbox 360 and ps3, and a guy who does developing for both of the latter gave preference to the xbox 360 over the ps3 but not sure about his opinions on wii. I used to have a ps2, but sold it months ago. Now, I am regaining my interest as I used to love final fantasy so I am going to invest in another ps2 with a pile of 50+ games. In the end, I would rather do that than spend a lot more on the newest systems and find myself unable to afford games. Ps3 has hardly any games out for it yet anyway as it is so new. I always found the graphics on the ps2 okay anyway, it was the gameplay interested me most...the escapism, and you only seem to be able to get one ff game for xbox, and none for the wii.

whats so bad about the wii?
it kicks ass.
its got a motion sensor, axis-sensor, and pointer-sensor thingy in it. that means u can swing, shake, tilt, and point the wiimote. it also has a nunchuck w/ another motion sensor, so u can use both hands and do cool ass s**t. the virtual console is just like an emu. if u dont like it, dont use it. its just an extra thing there.
the wii didn't waste as much dumb ass resources on graphics, instead it has more cpu resources for the game itself.
wii has usb and sd slots. it has bluetooth wireless. classic controller and everything. hell! the controllers even make sound!
so w/ all this great new s**t, gameplay will be like 1232453240-328 times better then some sh***y ass 2 mini joy sticks a pad and 4 buttons. oh and 2l and 2r buttons.

Personally, I'm not very interested with with either Playstation, X-Box, nor the Wii (Well, not yet. Once I see some cool games this will change however). If you want the very machine that stands-out above the rest in my mind, then direct your sights to THE COMPUTER!

Think about it, it's been around for years and has millions of cool games for it of all geners and types. There's the Internet, and the there is no system built better to handle it then the computer. There are tablets and laptops, so you can take one anywhere. There's the option to download stuff for free, and I doubt no other system has as many options then the computer. And best of all, there are emulators! So you can play hacks and such made from the very games you love that don't normally work on the computer.

This is why, in my mind, Computers stand out as the best of the best. Runner-ups to the computer would be the Gamecube, Gameboy Advance, and the SNES, incase your wondering. :D

You sir are a close-minded idiotic twit who thinks that me not going to church makes me a lesser person than you.

Heh heh, I can assume you imply it since you overgeneralize people according to what mindset they have. Though I am diagnosed with AS I am considered so high functioning that I am seen as an NT. Seeing how you have a general disgust towards the NT I could assume you would think of me as the lesser type.

January Game Sales Explode, Wii Dominates

njkid1, as he does from time to time, passed us a link to a story on the GameDaily site. Today they're discussing the January NPD numbers for the games industry. In short, they're terrific. Software sales totaled $549 million for the month, up a staggering 53 percent over last year. Hardware sales were brisk as well, with the Wii selling around 436,000 units. Trailing behind were Microsoft and Sony, with 360 hitting 294,000 units sold and the PS3 selling 244,000 units. January had an extra week, which resulted in 'inflated' sales, but even after normalizing the data things were tremendous for the games industry in a month where there's normally a post-holiday slump
