Oh, i was talking about Xbox in general. You guys were talking about Xbox with interest, and it was like.....NOOOOOO!
So it's not just you. I'm talking to ALL YOU POTENTIAL TRAITORS!

And I don't have a pool. I have to pay $3.50 to get into one....Heehee!
And bloody hell, I think that was the most excercise I have ever done! Swimming then Kabudo in one day.....man, I am sore everywhere!
And I'm seeing T3 again tonight! YAY!

Mario · « **Reply #1476 on:** July 18, 2003, 06:23:54 PM »

Ermm.... Does anyone know how much an Xbox costs here? Is there some really good bundle pack out now or something?

....just wondering.

nitsu niflheim · « **Reply #1477 on:** July 18, 2003, 06:30:08 PM »

Fear not. I now only have 2 Xbox games and I've had it since March of last year. Outside of Fable next year nothing on the system interest's me. I have 10 x the games for GCN over the Xbox so nothing to worry about. KOTOR is fun though, if you like those kind of games it is gonna be on PC.

I'm not a traitor. I don't even have Halo, so I must be retarded.

T3 again, I haven't seen it once. Oh well. Must be good if you're gonna see it again, I mean why see a movie again if it sucks right? lol.

EDIT: Haha, funny Mario.

Have you noticed The Real Mario? Is that you in disguise?

Mario · « **Reply #1478 on:** July 18, 2003, 06:47:15 PM »

Heh, nah that "Real Mario" is not me.

I am the only Mario here!

Good Xbox deal? Erm... There's that Hulk pack thing. You get.. Erm, an Xbox, a horrible 'Hulk' style Xbox controller (bigger than ever thanks to a massive Hulk face in the middle) and a copy of Hulk for like, $330. I dunno, seems pretty crap-tastic to me.

I too saw the GBP advert during the Simpsons, and it was also on twice late last night during T2! But Sony drowned Nintendo out with their Eye Toy adverts and their HILARIOUS Socom advert. Holy crap that advert got me giggling like a school girl.

But still, a terrible game

Bah, I'm in danger of having my net access cut off, I've hardly been on this week, yet I got on last night and it would seem someone important was trying to ring and couldn't. I can't take this rubbish, I've offered to pay for a second phone line, but NO. What the f**ck do they expect?

My Dad wants to throw the entire machine out the window because he can't stand that I have a life online. He's got it in his retarded mind that talking to people via the Internet isn't a form of interaction.

"F**CKING COMPUTER! GET OFF AND GET A LIFE! BLOODY TALKIN TO PEOPLE BY TYPING, THAT'S RUBBISH!"

Ugh. I despise him.

Infernal Monkey, i have the solution.

Get cable

Sorry Infernal. I can be very advicial, but I can't think of anything that you could do that would help. At least anything that is legal

Well you could move out, but you don't give the impression that's an option.

Piac, did you get my message?

PIAC · « **Reply #1485 on:** July 19, 2003, 06:00:33 AM »

yes i did

and i think i replied, but i was getting like 20 'this page cannot be displayed' pages a minute, so it might not have gotten through :\

also i dont think you have private messaging on. oh wait... you said to email you

...

.....

*opens outlook*

im a dumbass

Ms.Pikmin · « **Reply #1486 on:** July 19, 2003, 06:54:00 AM »

Yeah, for some reason I cannot turn on my private message option. Every time I try to update my file I get an error message.

PIAC · « **Reply #1487 on:** July 19, 2003, 06:57:25 AM »

well i have emailed you now

should prolly ask the mods about that, thats annoying it is! *yawns* 2am, im tired :\

Mario · « **Reply #1488 on:** July 19, 2003, 05:34:02 PM »

Oh. My. God.

That was quite possibly the worst episode of any show i have ever seen. They showed "One" game on a Nintendo system, and guess what it was...... the wild thornberrys on gba -___- And when they were showing xbox live, they mixed 1080: Avalanche and Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles in there, to make it look like they were on xbox -___________- for some reason they had some footage of dead or alive extreme volleyball and.... good god, i cant go on. Worst episode ever!

Shift Key · « **Reply #1489 on:** July 19, 2003, 09:55:02 PM »

Huzzah to you all. I've been in the wilderness called reality for the last few days, doing this 'social' thing - I think its a dance or something.

I was posting my rant about the Eye-toy on Friday and iSketching with Mario (which I won too

*does victory dance*) but IE reset itself mid-post and I couldn't even save two words of it! HULK SMASH!!!!

Using my powers of deduction, I reckon the thing will sell decently, enough to warrant more mini-games being made for it.
I was watching it in action at EB, with some punk kids mucking around with it. The one thing that really gets me is how dodgy the collision detection is. In the ninja game, the kids were working together, and ninjas still got through them waving their arms like idiots. It's a shame.

And the games are too simple. Sure, it's a party thing, but why not have a little thing called 'plot'? The games look like they were whipped up by a six-year old!
I had more to rant about, but I don't care. I'm not going to protest the buying of lame games by having a hunger strike, because I'll probably starve to death from it.

Infernal: It's a shame that people will see things like predators lurking in chat rooms, and then assume that everyone on the Internet is a weirdo. There's always more than one side to a story, and unfortunately people don't care for the big picture. I stopped going to chat rooms, and doing anonymous chat with ICQ years ago, because it was really pointless. But now I probably spend more time on the Internet, but doing more useful stuff like posting in this thread

Mario: Sucks to be you. I was still asleep then. Football wasn't on until late afternoon, so I slept in.
And I'm actually in a similar situation to Infernal, but not as explosive. My new computer is isolated from the Internet, so I'm looking at a second line/cable, but I don't have the money!

Hello all!
I'm online now!
But my friend's computer don't have msn, so i can't chat wif youse! DO'H!
Let's just chat here, like we used to!

Mario · « **Reply #1491 on:** July 20, 2003, 03:11:33 AM »

awwwww, we just had an uber crazy mega chatzilla a thon.

Sooo..... you like.... stuff?!

umm.. nah

mario, infernal and i were freaking people out, and now im going to bed

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, I'm gonna take this thread in a new direction. I was chatting with a mate at work today, who was the victim of a cruel prank. He got too drunk and passed out, and his 'friends' shaved the front of his hair, so he had to shave it all off.
Which brings me to my point - what's the worst/best prank you've ever heard/witnessed/performed?

The first one I'll tell you about was the one a group of us did to a friend. This guy, who i now loathe with a passion, was a sissy boy. He nearly always went out with a silk shirt on, so we bagged the hell out of him. One night we were at a friends place, getting drunk for no apparent reason, and he was there.
He had too much medicine one night and passed out, and we drew on him. Not obviously like on his face (well we did anyway) but in other hidden places. We wrote "I Like Men" on his forehead, "I'm a raging homosexual" on his back, "I shave my legs" on his leg and something else, I forget.
It was hilarious when he woke up in the morning and asked us what happened. We managed to keep a straight face, until he got up to go to the toilet and saw himself in the mirror.
And he left, thinking it was only on his face. That was the best part.

So come on, anyone top that.

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #1495 on:** July 21, 2003, 04:22:34 AM »

I am a boring person.....
The worst thing I have ever done, was during the release of 'Scream'. You all know the story. We sneak up a chick's house, then call her home phone. I did the voice of the murderer, and she was freaked as hell. We were near her window watching her, so we could see her. She was crying when she said what she was doing, and we guessed right, and she was holding up her right arm.
Her doorbell is quite loud, and she jumped a mile when my friend went to the door and rang it.
Hahaha.

Other than that, I have played no pranks.
There was one where my friend got his eyebrow shaved off at our Yr11 retreat. That was funny as hell. I wake up the next morning, go for some breakfast in the hall, and there his is, eyebrow missing. HAhaha.

Ms.Pikmin · « **Reply #1496 on:** July 21, 2003, 05:12:52 AM »

OMG, you guys are mean! I am truly a boring person. The first prank that comes to mind was at a slumber party I had when I was young. My mother made me invite this girl who I had grown up with but didn't like anymore. When she went to the bathroom, my friends and I stole her flowered underpants, soaked them and froze them in the freezer. When she realized they were gone and had to peel them off the side of the freezer she cried and cried. Her ease of crying was part of the reason I had not wanted her there in the first place.

I have you all beat. I once hid from my little brother, and when he came by me I jumped out and said "Boo"
He said "ah"

So there!

nitsu niflheim · « **Reply #1498 on:** July 21, 2003, 07:08:30 AM »

haha, I like to sneak up on my grandma and say boo. Sometimes i can just sneak up on her and stand there and she turns around and jumps like three feet in the air. She's always telling me to not do that, but sometimes I actually don't mean to.

hehe. I really don't like pulling pranks, (honestly don't get the chance) I was going to get my boss for April Fools day, but my mother said I probably shouldn't. I was going to print screen his desktop and apply the pic to be his wallpaper and then turn off all the icons on his desktop. I would love to see him try and open something and wonder why it won't.

I threw a dart at my brother's face once. Not a prank but it'll tell you what I'll do if I get pissed off enough. (It stuck in his cheek, it was so funny. I didn't even get in trouble for it.

)

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #1499 on:** July 21, 2003, 08:58:40 AM »

Nitsu, you're a madman, that's all I have to say to you.

Bah. One time my Mom through a knife at her brother when they were little. It didn't hit him, though, thank god.

But I can never think of good practical jokes never mind get a good chance to pull once.

Substitute teachers are fun though.
