    The undefeated video game Boss

    The final Boss in Vex for the gamecube. Never could beat that guy after he changed shape. I should look it up on gamefaqs or something.

    Romans?

    The reason is that Rome was the actual name of their country. There was no such country as Italy back then and thus no Italians. Now the next question is; why is it named Rome anyways? The answer is that it was founded a guy named Romulus and the whole "country" at that point consisted of a...

    Poll: How Did you pick what class you play most in Rpg's

    Healer, though it's mostly because of the fun I have when I instantly switch from helping somebody and then just casting destroy on everything. Also most healer can wear moderate armor and I can't say how many times that AC has allowed me to finish casting inflict mass critical wounds. I just...

    Why is there so much stigma attached to Pokemon?

    They were childish, in fact they still are. As for a stigma though I think has to do with the fact that it is goofy and childish even today. I'd get the same response from people who saw me watch Dexters Laboratory, if they saw me playing the Pokemon card game. There are many things that that...

    Quest for the Sidequest!

    I wish I could remember the game but since most of the games I've played throughout my life have left me or been returned I can't find it, even so. There was a door a fairly large one that my tiny main character couldn't hope to open and access the other side. Luckily the key was openly...

    How long will Valve stick to the Source-engine?

    They could use it forever if they wanted to. The engine is easy to mod and if they needed drastic improvements they could just add them on. The only problem is if you use the source engine to make all of your games and then you quite Valve or something, when you go to get a new job the only...

    Watch TV on your Xbox 360 in 13 days (in the UK only)

    On-demand tv? Well you have a tv and not a cable box or some other way to watch tv that is really pretty cheap. I suppose the the service packs and pay-per-view tariffs will be fine. Really unless you want to watch something that only airs in a foreign country I don't see the point because...
