MemberThere are so many!!
Pokemon Stadium 1 & 2 on the N64, great times playing the mini-games on that one with a few of my friends.
MGS on the PS1; That entire game, especially the battle against mantis, is just timeless.
Also, all the PS1 versions of Crash Bandicoot and Spyro.
Ratchet and Clank Deadlocked, I remember my friend coming over my house everyday after school and playing co-op non-stop. So great.
From modern games: MGS online gave me a good amount of laughs, LittleBigPlanet has also had some great moments!
MemberKZ3, pretty great so far. Haven't had a chance to go online yet, so that should be awesome!
Wish I had more time for gaming
MemberGot the game. Loving it so far! Pretty solid.
MemberLooks great! Definitely looks like something new, can't wait to see what the gameplay will be like. I am very interested to see more of this game!
MemberPlayed the single player demo today, loved it.
Can't wait for Tuesday.
MemberNot quite sure. I have used an avatar I got off a EU account, and I live in Canada, but it was a free one. Maybe the paid ones are region locked, i dont know.
I'll look into it some more, but I would say don't try to buy it just yet. It would suck if you wasted your money!
MemberAs The World Turns – Eminem.
Funny ass song. Lyrical genius.
MemberCool stuff..
I have a Gibson Les Paul BFG Custom, I love it because its so unique. It has a completely different feel than any other les paul/guitar out there. I love it, would never sell it. Got a P90 in the neck, and a Burstbucker 3 Pro in the bridge = absolute sexy tone. The Burstbucker has got a great mid-range and a ton of bite, making it great for modern songs, and classic riffs. The P90 is very thick and creamy, nice blues tone and great for soloing.
Here are some pics of me with it at a couple of gigs:

Now the amp you see there is not my primary amp. I run that guitar through a Vox AC30. Best amp ever created, hands down. It's a classic. Used since pretty much the beginning of rock! Marshalls are nice, but Vox just has got a grittier overdrive. My amp can do anything from a sparkly clean to a British Classic Overdrive, to the most modern sounding overdrive. Seriously recommend any guitarist pick up an AC30.
I have got a few effect pedals:
Vox Wah pedal – very simple wah wah, it gets the job done.
Electro Harmonix Octave Multiplexer – Plays your original note, with an octave down of that same note. Almost like playing in perfect harmony with a bass player. Great for beefing up some weak riffs.
MXR Phase 90 – Just a simple Phase pedal, pretty popular.
Electro Harmonix Memory Boy – Great delay unit. Best I have ever played with for only $100. Sounds better than some of the $300 models! Its analog, and it can do some other modulation crap as well as crazy oscillations if you screw around with the settings.
Look up some YouTube vids of those pedals if your interested to see how they look/sound.
I have some other pedals too that I have collected over the years, but those 4 are always in my setup. I don't own any overdrive/distortion pedals, because the overdrive on my amp is perfect for me.
I can also play some drums, and very very basic piano. But I'm not too into those, haha. I just use my brothers drumset when I'm really bored.
EDIT: Hope the pics work..

One game that you should buy when it comes out is Duke Nukem Forever. After seeing the trailer it looks to be the manliest game ever, it can make up for expendables not being so good.
I've seen some stuff about that game. Not to big of a fan of the Duke Nukem thing. After KZ3, I'm probably not going to buy any more games for a while. Need to start saving up for school and other things.
MemberShow Must Go On – Queen.
So epic. One of my favorite songs ever.
Member@hardandsloppy – I'm all for long games, as long as they don't drag on unnecessarily. MGS4 is pretty long, but I think it was absolutely perfect.
Lowering the price of games would be a dream come true.. It will never happen though. Some games that came out 2 years ago are still $60. Come on. I hate when new games are $80, like what the hell. Completely ripping everyone off.
With all this said, I finally got a chance to play KZ3 beta at my friends house. SO GOOD. Definite buy for me.

Am I the only one that did not really like GTA San Andreas?
I'm with you on that one. I can't stand any of the GTA games. I've just never been a fan. I've always found them pretty boring after a few hours, and the missions have always seemed repetitive to me. But hey, thats just me. I always seemed to get destroyed when I say that.

Games need to be like 10 hours or more. Nowadays they are all so damn short. It really pisses me off. Oh ya, they expect me to buy a 4 hour long game, for $80. You have to be kidding me. Then people will say “Oh, it also has multiplayer, that never ends, so you get like a whole bunch of hours.” And I say, “Well buddy, they put a shit multiplayer with it, that took them like two hours to make, and no it isnt an infinate amount of time, it gets pretty damn boring after like half an hour.” So there is my rant of the day. Does anyone else feel this way?
I agree fully. With that said though, I hate games that are long and boring. I would rather have a 5 hour action packed awesome experience than a 10 hour bore-fest.
Still, games should be at the very least 8 hours imo. That or lower the price. Multiplayer does add a nice amount of time added to the game, but multiplayer should be secondary. Single player needs to become the primary focus of video games again.
MemberI don't really see an issue, as long as this short story mode is absolutely packed with action. I'll admit, I was hoping for it to be 6 hours minimum, but I guess the single-player is just thrown out the window in these war FPS games.
Also, I agree with everything kog73 said.
