Hmm I got a lot less medals, but my medal score is still higher.

Yeah, well I did get a glut of 0 and 5 point medals.

That explains. The 0 point medals mostly seem to be with recent medal games and I haven't played an awful lot of them lately.

On occasion, I just head for the Games with Medals page and work on the ones I've not played yet.

Lol, I see :p Still, I think the Benny Hill theme will be more suitable.

Ah, the genius that was Benny Hill chasing after semi-naked girls while that lovely piece of saxophone plays.

Yep. I guess the theme has been overused though.

Of course - I remember those meat spin things, that used it all the time.

Wait, there's a TV series of that movie? 0.0

Yeah, it was better than the film.

I don't believe it! Looks like it only had 7 episodes, right? I gotta check it out then.

It grows well in the goatee fashion, but the sides of my cheeks are pretty barren. My neck is pretty popular for hair growth and I can fashion some fairly standard sideburns, though I can't control how it all looks at the moment, which is a shame.

Well maybe if you went to a barbershop they can cut it the right way.

How can you cut a beard the right way if the hair doesn't grow? I have too little hair growing on my cheeks between my goatee and my sideburns to produce award winning facial hair. I must therefore work within my means.

Quite so, though why one would wish to contain ice-cream within the back pocket is entirely beyond me.

For this reason I doubt this law has ever been enforced, and if it has been, nobody's ever done it. I've always wanted to push my luck and try it near a Kentucky police station.

That's an alternative to Jackass, that I could see becoming a YouTube sensation.

And it's still appalling how they get views just like that. They have better things to show.

Sounds like Pop Idol and Britain's Got "Talent". Both of them disgust me and it's even worse when Ant & Dec are presenting those shows. Well, just Britain's Got "Talent" but it's sickening enough.

Hollands Got Talent is what it's called here. I guess we might have Pop Idol as well. And Idols, and Popstars, and Dancing on ice with the stars =/

Ugh, Dancing on Ice as well. Besides the odd few good shows like Futurama and Metalocalypse that are still around, it's reasons like this why TV is dead.

It's a little sad when you think about it. I'm pretty sure the people who win those shows will just be used to make tons of money and as soon as the masses don't care about them anymore they're dropped.

I'm really looking forward to when that day comes but I highly doubt the masses will smarten up.

I believe their songs and acts are also written for them already, they don't have a say in anything.

The last X Factor winner sung a Miley Cyrus song for his single. A FUCKING MILEY CYRUS SONG! Please let me state that one more time:

A MOTHERFUCKING MILEY CYRUS SONG!!!

The UK's weather has been a mixed bag. We got lots of rain and then good sun.

It's been cloudy here for pretty much the entire month and right now we got thunder storms coming up. It looks more like a cold November day than a late summer day.

Wow, luck is on our side today, especially when it's bank holiday Monday. It's a sunny day today so it's more than good for a barbecue.

And that's one of the many advantages for PC.

Yes, but on the other hand, consoles are made for gaming and I do prefer a controller over a keyboard and mouse.

It depends which game you're playing. For platformers and racing games, I'd much rather play on the consoles but for FPS and RTS games, keyboard and mouse are very ideal.

Those two games actually rank at the very top for my favourite Nintendo games. Sure, it has a lot of FPS elements but Metroid in that perspective was a fantastic idea. Also, who can forget the incredible boss fights those two games have?

Well the FPS didn't bother me, but I haven't played the older Metroids.

You haven't? Wow, Super Metroid is one awesome game. Although, the best way to play it is downloading it from Virtual Console. If you can't get them, surely you can get Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission somewhere on the internet. Zero Mission is a remake of the first game and a huge improvement from it. I never got into the original Metroid game.

The bosses are indeed epic, especially those in Metroid Prime 2, and I also loved how the story was told. Almost no dialogue whatsoever but you can reveal the entire history of a planet via log books you could find. I thought that was an interesting way to tell a story.

That's one of the best things about Metroid Prime 2. The boss fights are some of the best I've seen in any video games. There was quite a lot of depth in some of the bosses which is what made them really good. It wasn't a simple hit them on the weak spot three times, they gave you a much bigger challenge than that.

As for the story, I believe Prime 1 had even less dialogue than the second game. Infact, I can't recall ANY dialogue in Metroid Prime but the sequel had some.

Ah yes that's silly. I thought the same about Zelda: Twilight Princess. I own it for the Gamecube and the controls were good for that controller, but on the Wii you had to swing the Wii mote to use your sword. I haven't played the Wii version for long, but I can imagine that could get annoying after a while. Just pressing a button is probably better imo.

I suppose we can't complain about the controls too much since the new Zelda game will be similar. I'm still looking forward to the new game but I still need to finish off Twilight Princess. Maybe along with that I can play through Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask again.

Yeah, the specific band games help but I still want something that covers metal in general.

Well there is Rock Band Metallica... and I saw some Iron Maiden songs on the Guitar Hero games.

lol, it's Guitar Hero Metallica. The only band specific games for Rock Band so far are The Beatles and Green Day. And yes, there is some Iron Maiden in these games. I really want an Iron Maiden GH/RB game. Now THAT I'd buy in an instant.

Yeah, I'll be hardcore by taking on the Star Syndicate!

Okay that IS hardcore.

And it's taking me a while to get through. Still hardcore, though.

She's got real life to sort out for the time being but once she's back, I'll be giving her a big hug.

Aha. Well I hope she's alright then.

Yeah, it would be a shame if she left like that. I'm sure she'll return soon enough.

It was my sister who discovered the band. She's been able to find as much underground metal bands as I have.

Wow :p

So she's a metal head as well?

Indeed she is. Infact, she even wants to dress up like Immortal for Halloween. Yeah, the song itself isn't that great but what you need to focus on is the video itself.

I agree. I think they were the best boss battles I've ever experienced. Some of them were a great challenge, like the Boost Guardian, and the final bosses of the temples were totally epic.

I was actually a tiny bit disappointed with the boss battles in Metroid Prime 1 (I played 2 first). I thought there would be more and I thought they would be harder. The battle with Meta Ridley was awesome though and the other bosses were still much better than the bosses in most video games I played.

As for the story, I believe Prime 1 had even less dialogue than the second game. Infact, I can't recall ANY dialogue in Metroid Prime but the sequel had some.

Yeah the sequel had some in the beginning. Unlike MP1, MP2 actually had a friendly character in the game and with that came some dialogue although it was nothing much. I wish that Luminoth would've been more present in the game, but he was only there to teach you some things.

Ah yes that's silly. I thought the same about Zelda: Twilight Princess. I own it for the Gamecube and the controls were good for that controller, but on the Wii you had to swing the Wii mote to use your sword.

Lol. Personally I'd go for The Beatles but I might've bought AC/DC as well. Then, if I still had some money left, I might take a look at Maiden (if it existed).

I'd also be waiting for a Pink Floyd Guitar Hero, but I don't think that game will ever come.

What's so monotone about it? I happen to like that song. :(

It's the same piano tune over and over and over again. Drove me insane when it was in the hit charts.

I this drives you insane, then you must really hate Queens of the Stone Age, lol. Their songs consist mostly of only a few riffs that are constantly repeated.
I think I lost my headache - Especially the outro, which starts at around 3:39 and gets really weird (and annoying ^^) after the 6 minute mark.
Song for the dead - Again, a very weird (and annoying to some ^^) outro.
Everybody knows that you're insane - Not so annoying outro this time. XD But still, only about two riffs make for a whole song. ^^

What the fuck. If 83% of the people screw it up, it's most likely not their fault. The test was just too hard.

Yep. Some students told they went to the Prof after the test and said: "About 90% will fail this test, it was too hard." and the prof just replied "I know."

Damn. Again, I'd file a complaint against him. An 83% fail rate is not a good test. I think you'd have a right to complain if he's gonna be like that.

Yeah, the students filed a complaint at their student representatives. Hopefully they will get somewhere with it...

Doesn't seem like it though. They always sounds a bit aggressive or dominant to me.

It's just because of the stereotypes you have about germans. :P
But seriously, I guess it's pretty hard to make out the tone or the intention of the speaker when you hardly understand the language.
Of course, the german language makes use of pretty hard sounding tones like the "ch" or "t" and "k" and "ck". Maybe that makes it sound agressive to someone who doesn't understand too much.

Hmm yeah I guess it could be the stereotypes and indeed if you don't know a language that well things can always sound differently. Plus, maybe my idea of German people is mostly shapen by WW2 movies :p

But you should know that in WW2 movies there's only pidgin german, not real german. :P
As for example in Daffy - The Commando (yay for another youtube link! But This one is really funny. XD). At 1:03 the text says something like:
"Idiot !![it's spelled wrong, should be two 'm' instead of only one]
Isn't this a sauerkraut potatöe ["kartoffel" is written without an umlaut] soup not eating made veal the Apsen [? this isn't even a real word] of history."

Maybe it does sound like german to someone who never heard german before. But for me it sounds just like the random gibberish it is. XD

Yep. Maybe if I had played computer games in French instead of English I might have had a feeling for it. But nonetheless I'm glad I developed my English that way instead.

I never liked the french language too much, to be honest. Everyone says that it sounds so "beautiful", but I think those nasal sounds sound pretty stupid.

I don't like it either, but that's mostly because a lot of French people I met were arrogant assholes :p

And they don't like to learn English either, so why should I learn French?

I guess french people don't like learning foreign languages because of all the "h" sounds, lol.

Lol :p

Luckily they didn't go with entire history of London when they decided to call it London.

Hm, but once you learned the name of the town you've learned about 90% of english history already. Wouldn't be too bad. ^^

Well yeah but it would be a bitch if you had to tell people to which towns you've been this holiday.

Would be interesting:
A: "So, where have you been to in your holidays?"
B (one our later): "And that was only the first town we've, been to. The second one was..."
A: "OH GOD NO!!!!!"

You'll never become a real man at this rate.

If "being a real man" means "wearing fur underwear" then I don't want to be a real man anyway.
Also, what does a dragon now about the meaning of "being a real man"? :P

I think we already established that.

Yes. And by your rational that means they are one better than Manowar. :P

But at one point, Manowar WERE the loudest band in the world.

And that's about the only achievement in their whole carreer. I'm not impressed. :P

Coop gets himself set to go through the past week's work with his manager, as he congratulates:

I've got a weird image of you at a craps table now "Snake eyes?! *mega flare*"

If I ever get that far which I highly doubt. I'll need to be 77 (lol) to get there.

Why? You're not 22, and have more than 22,222 Posts. You'll be a lot younger, when you get there.

You need to consider that I'm likely to have a relationship someday and when that happens, less time for the BBS. :P

And of course, that's happened to me :P

On occasion, I just head for the Games with Medals page and work on the ones I've not played yet.

Well same here, but I only play the ones that seem slightly interesting to me.

I wouldn't play games that have no interest for me, but if I get a game that I like and am good at, I'll play to destruction. Level Up was probably the last one, though I'm close with Epos now.

That other series with doctors... The name Dr Cox should ring a bell.

Green Wing? Scrubs? ER? Casualty? Help me out here.

I don't believe it! Looks like it only had 7 episodes, right? I gotta check it out then.

Quite funny, if just for the quote "Those bloody Dutchies!" :P

I'll check it out someday :)

Good man.

How can you cut a beard the right way if the hair doesn't grow? I have too little hair growing on my cheeks between my goatee and my sideburns to produce award winning facial hair. I must therefore work within my means.

Eh... miraculous hairgrow spray.. stuff? Hair implants?

DEMOXONIL!

Oh yeah, when things update themselves, I should finally ascend to 125th Most Experienced Newgrounder.

Nice, but I've got to carry on chasing if ever I want to end up in the TOP 50!

Yes Bahamut, I went there.

He'll want to be at exactly 36 for blams.

Pitty he didn't land on 37 so he would have to come back.

I would have laughed if he had 37 blams.

You gotta do what you gotta do. :(

I need to hang that motivation pic up somewhere on my wall.

They need to have posters of that at the Futurama store.

Indeed. And that's why I seldom watch TV anymore these days.

I think that applies to all of us.

Ugh, Dancing on Ice as well. Besides the odd few good shows like Futurama and Metalocalypse that are still around, it's reasons like this why TV is dead.

Comedy Central is the only thing I turn on sometimes, for shows like Futurama, Family Guy and South Park. I don't always pay attention though.

I do have Comedy Central here but they're so slow to get new Futurama. I don't like Family Guy and I never really paid attention to South Park. I should but I'm so far behind.

I'm really looking forward to when that day comes but I highly doubt the masses will smarten up.

I don't count on it.

Haha, who would? Just shows how little faith we have in humanity. :D

A MOTHERFUCKING MILEY CYRUS SONG!!!

What kind of song? :p

A GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING MILEY CYRUS SONG! UGH!

Wow, luck is on our side today, especially when it's bank holiday Monday. It's a sunny day today so it's more than good for a barbecue.

I'm jealous 0.0

LOL, you are jellyous.

That reminds me I've only had one real BBQ this summer. I call 2010 the year with the worst summer ever.

Wait what? I thought you had plenty of sunny days.

It depends which game you're playing. For platformers and racing games, I'd much rather play on the consoles but for FPS and RTS games, keyboard and mouse are very ideal.

Yeah I can imagine RTS work better on the PC. FPS games work good as well I guess, but I have no problems with playing them on consoles either.

They can be alright on the consolses but they're more ideal on PC. Well, something like Metroid Prime is better on console, of course.

I only played one of them for ... 10 minutes maybe. Can't even remember which one it was. I think I actually didn't like the 2D all that much, but I should give them another chance someday.

I wouldn't be surprised if you played the original Metroid. That can be a real turn off.

That's one of the best things about Metroid Prime 2. The boss fights are some of the best I've seen in any video games. There was quite a lot of depth in some of the bosses which is what made them really good. It wasn't a simple hit them on the weak spot three times, they gave you a much bigger challenge than that.

I agree. I think they were the best boss battles I've ever experienced. Some of them were a great challenge, like the Boost Guardian, and the final bosses of the temples were totally epic.

Haha, Boost Guardian was the hardest out of the lot. I remember everyone complaining about the difficulty of Boost Guardian but I've managed to beat that mofo on hard mode.

I was actually a tiny bit disappointed with the boss battles in Metroid Prime 1 (I played 2 first). I thought there would be more and I thought they would be harder. The battle with Meta Ridley was awesome though and the other bosses were still much better than the bosses in most video games I played.

Of course you'll be disappointed with the bosses in Prime 1 if you played Prime 2 first. Still, they were good experiences. I'm surprised you played Prime 2 first.

Yeah the sequel had some in the beginning. Unlike MP1, MP2 actually had a friendly character in the game and with that came some dialogue although it was nothing much. I wish that Luminoth would've been more present in the game, but he was only there to teach you some things.

There's plenty of dialogue in Metroid Prime 3. However, I feel there should be little to no dialogue in Metroid games.

lol, it's Guitar Hero Metallica. The only band specific games for Rock Band so far are The Beatles and Green Day. And yes, there is some Iron Maiden in these games. I really want an Iron Maiden GH/RB game. Now THAT I'd buy in an instant.

Lol. Personally I'd go for The Beatles but I might've bought AC/DC as well. Then, if I still had some money left, I might take a look at Maiden (if it existed).

I was thinking of getting The Beatles Rock Band. Not sure why I haven't picked it up besides the fact that I need money and space for the peripherals. The AC/DC thing is only a song pack and not an individual game.

I'd also be waiting for a Pink Floyd Guitar Hero, but I don't think that game will ever come.

I'll be surprised if they never made a Pink Floyd game.

Indeed she is. Infact, she even wants to dress up like Immortal for Halloween. Yeah, the song itself isn't that great but what you need to focus on is the video itself.

Don't know the song, but heh... you don't see many girls like that.

Nope but I do like the fact that my sister likes most of the music I'm into. She was the one who suggested our baby cousin to have corpse paint at his christening.

Nicely done. So close to the top 100 yet so far.

Nice, but I've got to carry on chasing if ever I want to end up in the TOP 50!

Yes Bahamut, I went there.

Eh, close enough.

I keep forgetting to upload this but here's the last of my light aura with the 22,222 post milestone.

Just reached 10,000 experience points.

Oh look I passed 65,000 BP.

Also, happy 80,000 posts LUL!

Top 300 in Experience!

Fuck yeah, man. About time I enter the top 300.
I bet tomorrow I will "rank down" again, lol.

Just went on NG Log and saw I'm in the top 4000 in B/P. Sweet.

That would be a fearsome terror on a unprecedented scale. Is someone trying to clone a Poozy BBR hybrid?
