I know this may sound stupid, but everyone I know says Aliens Wars is better than Hard Corps, and what reasons they give often times contradicts why they say Contra 3 is better in my mind. Like for example the boss battles seem to be everyone's favorite thing, and that's the majority of gameplay in Hard Corps. Or that, it's too hard but the only way to get to the real ending in Contra 3 is to play on Hard. It's really confusing to me, because I always thought Hard Corps was much more fun albeit demanding more patience, the variety of characters and weapons gave different ways to play, the choices in endings giving you roughly 6 different ones was pretty awesome as well (With one bad and one

I've worked on cars a lot in my life, and a big part of getting a newer sportier car then my Nissan NX2000 is that I want it to be as easy or easier then it is to work on. Now I'm not a hardcore professional or anything but I like to make it a fun hobby and I've been thinking about getting a newer car in the near future with a bit of money I've come into recently. I've been looking at getting another car that I could really rip on the streets or on a track sometimes. I want a tuner that can turn, I'd honestly like to try and go RWD as well but F4s look like fun too, my NX is a blast and I'm likely to keep it if I want to have fun in FWD format (So not really interested in ITRs or moding a SR

One of my favorite games of all time, the 3rd one was mediocre and disappointing as compared to 2. And I only know 2 people sides myself that have actually played it before I introduced it to them. Although, they've been mainly making kiddie games as of late, so the risk that the quality going downhill is possibility as compared to SCII but it seems worth the risk! Still, it still seems that Activision aren't really happy campers with letting studios do their own thing, just telling them to make more sequels of known big sellers, much less be willing to buy the rights it from Atari, and risk losing money in the endeavor because of an unknown sized fanbase.

In case you've never played, it

Jack LaLanne laid down some serious philosophy

*In 1955, at the of age 41,Jack swam from Alcatraz Island to Fisherman's Warf in San Francisco while handcuffed.

*In 1956 at age of, 42, Jack set a world record of 1,033 push-ups in 23 minutes 50 seconds.

*In 1957, at the age of 43, Jack swam the Golden Gate channel while towing a 2,500 point cabin cruiser. The swift ocean currents turned the one-mile swim into a swimming distance of 6.5 miles.

"Our youth now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority, they show disrespect for their elders and love chatter in place of exercise; they no longer rise when elders enter the room; they contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up their food and tyrannize their teachers." -Socrates

I'm seeing this more and more and it's kind of grating. All the world's problems are caused by baby boomers, and when they say it, it's like they can't take things in to perspective with the generation gap and changes that progress through them. It works in a chain, Interbellum Generation has been frustrated with the Greatest Generation, The Greatest Generation is frustrated with

So I'm noticing that almost every game I'm playing just doesn't end, I beat it and pretty much just informs you there is going to be another game that takes place after that one. Is it really that hard to pin another story in the same vein?

The other thing that gets me is that when I find games that actually do end, there is hardly ever a final boss fight that's worth mentioning and it ends a complex story on two pages like a Goosebump book I read when I was 9.

It's really starting to get annoying and seemingly more common, the ending can easily kill a movie, and it sucks that games can get 9.5 or 10 rankings yet don't end, and tell you wait 2+ years, and that never seems to be a proble

My mother is under this fundamentally belief that we're going to get a near doomsday, but it will only be a massive change in the world and that the poles are going to flip over in the that day. I've tried to linking her to articles that have shown no more than 5 degrees of change within 130-200 million years. Then I proceed to tell her about the 260/365 calendars then the 52 year calendar, then Long count. And tell her, we're pretty positive nothing happened over 5000 years or so and then tells me that there is another calendar that's 26,000 ago that I've never heard of that was when the last massive pole shift happened apparently (Does it even exist in Mayan scripture?

Ok, I think FDR did a good job. I also think that he was a charismatic man, and definitely kept up the spirits of the country, and definitely knew how to talk. He's one of the few presidents any of my friends know anything about and therefore becomes very high on the list but he made a lot of mistakes, and for some reason everyone seems to forget about it

1.)FDR helped, but didn't stop the depression (I know a lot of people that thinks he did), he curved it slightly, but when the we pulled back a bit of the money, hoping that it'll float, the economy tanked pretty hard, and didn't get employment back to prior levels til Lend-Lease started to roll in. I realize that's not completely how the
