I had an American Xbox when I moved to Stockholm, and it worked with every new game I got (PAL games on an NTSC system), except for EA games. Hope that helps.

The only guy in my high school who received a perfect score on his S.A.T. test was high on LSD at the time of the exam, and was a major stoner in general. In my own social experiences, the people who smoked the most weed in school were the people who were bored stiff with how easy classes were...

I thought the multiplayer was balls. I figured it would be, and aside from map graphics, the thing runs slower and choppier than my PC multiplayer games I remember from junior high. Besides, that's the last game on Earth to need an online multiplayer. The first game was so wonderful that this...

Shepard's voice was just about the incredibly lifeless, boring, white-washed (not always a bad thing, unless the two previous adjectives are present), uninteresting, unemotional voice and immersion-splitting thing I've heard. I couldn't take ANY dialogue he/she said seriously.

That's good to know that at least I have the potential to avoid the jackasses. I just can't help but feel like a wet-blanket Jr. High School disciplinarian or somebody's mother when I hit that button. If I get rid of them, then the ends justifies the means. Also, although I know this is...

Just wanted to know from you guys/girls on whether or not you've ever had evidence of success using either of these two functions. I've used it quite a bit lately on MW2 (for obvious racism/homophobia/misogyny/modding/etc. reasons), but I have NO clue on whether or not it works, or if it's even...

Star Control 2 or Space Quest 4. I also thought the original Tie Fighter for PC was cool.

Cabin Boy or Ghostrider, although at least Cabin Boy was supposed to be a bit awful.

"Close to Me" by the Get Up Kids. Farrrr and away better than The Cure's version. Silly overrated Cure. Yeah I said it. :)

Sweden. Too many to list, but I'd start with Refused. I'd also throw in Meshuggah, Opeth, At the Gates, In Flames, and The Knife. Anything to get my mind off the shittiness of Magnus Carlsson, Basshunter, and danceband. Now only if Mew lived a couple hundred more kilometers to the north, I'd be set!

I'm kinda of the school of thought that Moonlight Sonata is just INCREDIBLY depressing and dark. Gorgeous piece of music, but not so much sad as just a the biggest bum-out in musical history to listen to. :) That second thing you posted, though, with the Australians at war, just about choked me...

Maybe it's just because of personal attachment to the song, but "Creep" by Radiohead always kills me. Same goes for Piano Concerto #2 by Rachmaninov and Ave Maria arranged by Schubert!! I'm a softy.

This. By farrrr.

Mine is Drover, an Australian/British old for "cowboy." I think there are only about 20 of us out there, and 2 of us were guitar players in Megadeth. Tee hee. :)

Very true. Somehow I doubt my sister would recognize (or give any damn whatsoever, for that matter) if the drummer from Meshuggah walked by, regardless of my reaction. :)
