Hi! From a hardware standpoint, the 360 is closer to a PC than any of the other consoles. But my main reasons I'd rather play games on a console than a PC are (assuming the same game is available for both): for almost all games I prefer controllers to a keyboard and mouse (though I supposed I could buy a USB game controller), consoles can play all games made for them so there's no need to worry about whether or not you need to upgrade just to play a game, there's no lengthy installs (or at least there didn't used to be, now you never know), no need to worry about driver and compatibility issues, my TV is a whole lot bigger than my computer screen and I can sit further away from it. But I do agree that 360 hard drive and network adapters are extremely over-priced when compared to their PC counterparts.
Oh, quick reminder. Today is the last day to PM me votes for the forum awards if you haven't already done so.

My brother got Pearl and found a shiny bidoof and showed it to me. He didn't have any pokeballs yet, wasn't far enough in the game. :/

My TV is now my monitor. It's funny how technology these days have finally made the logical overlaps.
Buut, I don't have very good computers for gaming, the newest game I've played on my PC is Portal, and after a while, that started having problems. Good thing I prefer classics like Warcraft 3 and Quake 3. But you shouldn't listen to me on this particular issue. I just got my first PS2 after it's been out for 10 years! It was in a yard sale for $20 and it was the slim version with two controllers and two memory cards. Yay yard sales! Now I need to find myself some Kingdom Hearts.

I was going through my old computer games and found a copy of The Witcher (a Diablo 2 style game but needlessly more complicated) and reinstalled it for good old times' sake. Sadly I forgot my laptop fails at life and lagged through the intro video even. So I uninstalled it and am now replaying Diablo 2. Already have a level 6 Druid.

Hi! It was raining just a minute ago and now it seems it just stopped. Weather could be weird today... Which is only a problem since I was planning to go to the farmers' market tonight and look for a birthday present for my mom.

It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*

Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
Hi! Still no birthday present for my mom. I'm usually pretty good at finding things but this year, not so much... Maybe I should just offer to do a bunch of yardwork or something.

Hey!
What ever happened to ROM anyway? It just kinda died off... I was also reading the last couple pages of ROM 3 and it was kinda hard to read because of all the "<Span=blue> and what not. Just thought I'd point that out.

Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
Heso! Actually Josiah, NG was just talking about Umineko No Naku Koro Ni. Or he certainly came close anyway... There's actually 18 people there. And plenty of feasting on them, at least at that one Tea Party...
The point of this post is: Josiah, once you finish Higurashi, read Umineko.

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.
