LOL! Bahamut turns into a technohead. :P

Isn't that something? Not to worry, I'm back to my metal now.

Yeah, but you should stop listening to such bad bands. :P

Yeah, that would be a good idea. I even check latest news posts all the time.

It's just that I always forget to check if a user has new newsposts.

Well, what I meant was the Blogs page.

I know that, but chances are really slim that I see a user that I know there on that list. ;)
So I'd rather check people's userpages, but I always forgot to do so.

Well, it was one way to try and make you like Manowar, which failed miserably.

It did indeed.

So...Still interested to try out their music? XD

Um..... no.

The problem here is that I'm right no matter what and you'll refuse to accept it regardless.

You're not right. That's the problem.

Hell no, that is the right statement.

No.

The only album of theirs I have after Blackwater Park is Ghost Reveries. I still recommend it, however. :)

I'm gonna go preview it on Amazon now. I like their music, I just haven't been following it lately.

At 9/4/09 09:20 AM, Bahamut wrote: Indeed it is, it's right there at the start and you know you've got one hell of a game to play after seeing it. I may have to decide whether this beats the opening in Bioshock or not.

I haven't played Bioshock, but probably the most epic intro I've ever seen is the one from Shadow of the Colossus, then again the whole game is an epic piece of art.

If it's that epic, I refuse to watch it until I get the game. Still need to find a good time to play it and the next PS1/2 game I was going to play was FFIX again.

Fair enough, it's really on an atmospheric and aesthetic level that it stands out, gameplay is fine but nothing spectacular. Personally it's been a while since I played, and I didn't get too far as there was a part I just couldn't figure out, if I find time I might dig it up and play it again as being older I'll appreciate the atmosphere more, and be better equipped to tackle the puzzles.

Exactly, and he did state his reasons as to why he didn't add that moment. You could say I've made a few mistakes on my Top FF tracks list myself and you know what, there could probably be a few changes done to the list but my top 10 will remain intact.

Whenever someone does a top X of Y there'll always be doubts, omissions and second-guessing yourself, so no point worrying about it I suppose :P

Exactly, I even had some people disagreeing with some of my decisions on the list. The one I remember very well is the little amount of FFVIII tracks and I thought was only fair for at least one person to complain about. However, as nice as the FFVIII soundtrack is, I much prefer the others. It still beats FFII, X-2 and XII soundtracks, though.

I suppose the whole thing can be simplified to "it's opinion" and that while a compiler would obviously invest time and thought into choosing worthy entries, there will always be complaints from those with differing opinions. It's like a Greatest Hits album, someone will always bitch that a certain song was omitted, same applies here.

Well, the Charlton brothers are a little special in England as well ;)

Charlton? That name doesn´t ring any bells here.

You've never heard of Sir Bobby and Jack Charlton? They were two of the 1966 squad and Bobby had the record for the most games player for Man Utd - Ryan Giggs broke that last year.

Mind you, George Cohen was a part of England's 1966 World Cup winning squad, then his nephew Ben was a part of England's victorious Rugby World Cup winning squad in 2003. An interesting family.

That´s interesting indeed. Although I believe it´s fairly common that sportsmen in general are good in several sports. I believe Johan Cruyff used to play baseball and could´ve made it to the professionals if he wanted to, but he choose for football in the end. I can also remember Michael Schumacher playing an excellent game of football in a benefit match. And I can probably bring up a dozen more examples.

I know that Sir Ian Botham played football for Portsmouth during the close season of cricket. That's about the only cross-code player I know of.

Thanks for voting, Soapbubble! Your experience has been automatically deposited!

With that vote, you now have 4,440 experience points. You need 0 more to get to Level 21. The next Grounds Gold day begins in 18 hours, 30 minutes, and 28 seconds.

The more experience points you have, combined with BLAM and PROTECTION points, the more your vote is worth!

Sure thing. If you want a few more Opeth recommendations, just search for Opeth from my latest posts and you should come across some posts in the Metal Hell regarding the band and their later stuff. Supposedly Watershed is also worth checking out but I intend to get the remaining albums in chronological order.

Indeed so but sometimes the choices in such things is inexcusable. :P I mostly dislike Greatest Hits albums if they offer nothing new, unless it's Queen. My other exception would be if I only want one album of a band such as Cannibal Corpse. I don't particularly enjoy them as a whole studio album but a compilation with a disc or two (and not four like the one they have) would be nice.

I'm somewhat similar, if I'm trying to get into a band and see if I like them, if they had some sort of compilation/greatest hits album out I'd buy that as a priority, and depending on what I thought of it get other albums subsequently.

*Coop points at the door* Get out.

Osgood's not a bad goalie, but he's nowhere near the pedigree of Patrick Roy. Roy made good teams, as an integral part, while Osgood just joined decent teams (Red Wings) and contributed. When Osgood joined St Louis, he sucked and we all saw it. When Roy joined the Quebec Nordiques, he formed a great part of the Stanley Cup winning team and was as key a member of the Dynasty as Joe Sakic and Peter Forsberg.

Mind you, the addition of players like Ray Borque certainly helped matters in 2001 :P

He only managed Preston North End for one season and that ended in relegation. His brother Jack managed the Republic of Ireland and famously had a bust up with the officials at the World Cup in the USA, 1994.

No, I think it does that once every week or two. Still, it's a good enough excuse for me not to miss a deposit :P

No need to take that tone with me :(

And have people forget about George Vezina?

No, I'm just biased as hell. I love the Avalanche. Haha. Ever since the Stanley Cup finals between the NJ Devils and Colorado where Ray Bourque got his championship in a Game 7... I cried that day. That series was so up and down. Definitely one of the greatest Finals of all time. (Again, biased as hell)

I stayed up and watched every minute of those finals - the best finals I've ever seen, but when you compare it to the Stars and Devils based finals of that era, you're going to choose that particular one for the expansive style of play :P

Raining Blood is a good song, but besides that they sound boring. Hell, even Mayhem are better, even though they are stupid posers that play around with pig blood on stage. :P

How could you say Angel of Death is a boring song?

Goddammit Haggard, Manowar and Slayer are awesome!

They are not!

Shut up, they are. And so are Ensiferum.

My other exception would be if I only want one album of a band such as Cannibal Corpse. I don't particularly enjoy them as a whole studio album but a compilation with a disc or two (and not four like the one they have) would be nice.

I'm somewhat similar, if I'm trying to get into a band and see if I like them, if they had some sort of compilation/greatest hits album out I'd buy that as a priority, and depending on what I thought of it get other albums subsequently.

I always go for the studio albums, unless I only want a compilation album if their music is most likely repetitive from album to album like Cannibal Corpse. While the band isn't bad, the amount of fillers they have on each album really kills it for me. Doesn't help when the only compilation album they have is four discs.

Aherm. I agree with you 100%, but it's not my place to judge someone based on their request.. The pic is for you. :) And before anyone asks, yes, I'm completely ashamed of myself. I'd had photoshop for like 3 days then. Haha.

Oh shit, it's a trap!

Yeah, I've acknowledged the easter egg for a long time now, way before byteslinger took over. It's a nice easter egg but really annoying when you click on it unintentionally.

It's mostly annoying to me because that is one of the best intros to a song ever, and the version it plays never goes into it, so I always have to open iTunes and play the full song after I hear it. Haha.

Ah well, at least we have the full song for whenever we want to hear it. :D

Of course, nothing beats that for you.

Neat! I'm .24 VP away but I'm getting there. Of course, this won't be until January. Ah well.

That'll come around soon enough. Plus tomorrow is the nice reward of being confused with life and deckheadtottie once more :P

Goddammit, why can't one of you stop depositing forever so we can have one less person to confuse with?

I think you´re right there. In the rare cases that I watch baseball, I never get all those seemingly random numbers that pop-up with every player.

If you're confused, I can help... I think. Just throw some stats at me and I'll do my best to explain.

I can´t recall any at the moment. But don´t they have like an average for every run, every homerun, every time they hit the ball, every catch etc.?

After doing a bit of research, I think I know Bobby Charlton from being the all-time top goal scorer for Man Utd and the English team. Jack I really don´t know at all, but it seems like he was quite succesfull as a manager.

I'm now level 12.

Gz JohnnytheWinnar (sorry if I wrote it wrong)!
I got 800th post!
Yay!

Fair enough, I'd probably act in a similar manner in that situation.

Mind you, I got them both :P

I saw Inglorious Basterds today. Great movie! But you really have to watch it in the original version with subtitles, or else too much would be lost in translation.
But this problem shouldn't occur to that much people here. As far as I know movies aren't dubbed in the US. How about the UK? Are foreign films dubbed there?

LOL! I was just trying to piss off an Avs fan. :P
I'm not much into Ice Hockey, it's just that I used to play an NHL video game with a friend and we always chose the Red Wings as our team. :D

Meh, alright Bahamut, I'll keep keep helping users, though one day I will be tired of it.
