    Pokemon Trainer Card Creator (Post yours)

    I have three main parties for the Sinnoh, Hoenn, and Kanto/Johto regions; IMO, Ken has the best team, and Luna's team is the worst. She used to have a Swalot, but I decided to break my own rule and put a Legendary on the team as a replacement.

    Poll: Do you prefer American English spelling or British English spelling?

    British, because that's the way we spell things here in Canada, and things like honour and colour and favourite just look better with that extra u.

    Poll: Does a game NEED online to be recieved well?

    No. All the games from the pre-Xbox generations had no online, and many of them are still really good games. I find it annoying that so many games nowadays are focused so much on online, I don't care for it and I don't think I ever will. Playing a game with three or four friends is a lot more...

    Nerdiest thing you have ever said or discussed...

    I don't get into many nerdy debates, mostly because I don't get into many debates in general. The one that springs to mind though was when I spent around 15 minutes debating with my sister over whether Palpatine purposely threw the match against Mace Windu so that he could turn Anakin evil, or...

    If you could put three songs of your choice into a Guitar Hero.Rock Band game what would you choose?

    1) Tremble for my Beloved- Collective Soul (I know the odds of this are pretty slim, I just really love this song) Actually, that's the only one I would really like to see.

    Point and laugh at unworthy plot moments in games.

    The fight against Zant in Twilight Princess was a big WTF moment for me, especially since you have no prior hints that Zant is completely insane, nor does he act like that in any of the other cutscenes he's in. It felt like the writers just needed to sweep him out of the way so they could...

    Poll: Have you ever played a Gamecube game on your Wii?

    Yes, we don't even own a Gamecube anymore. We sold it after buying the Wii. There's no point in keeping it when the Wii does both games.

    Worst Game Ever

    Aside from all the other common titles that have been mentioned already, I'm going to add Star Trek: Legacy onto the list. I picked it up because I thought it would be cool. What I got were horrid controls, incredibly slow movement, and a game that actually succeeded in making space combat...

    What DnD character are you?

    True Neutral Human Ranger/Wizard (1st/1st Level) Ability Scores: Strength- 12 Dexterity- 15 Constitution- 11 Intelligence- 14 Wisdom- 9 Charisma- 10 The true neutral part doesn't surprise me. I'm a bit surprised that Strength ended up being my third highest skill, I thought it...

    Nobody ever shed a tear over a video-game character's death.

    I've never cried, but there are a few moments that really affected me, particularly in Half-Life and Mass Effect.

    Replay value

    I find replay values to be one of the main make or break issues when I decide if I really like a game or not. Take Mass Effect for example, I really liked the storyline, the graphics, and the gameplay, but after I was done I felt no motivation to do it again, or complete everything 100%. Games...

    Poll: Would you buy "Left 4 Dead" on the PS3 if it was made?

    I don`t own a PS3, so the answer would be no.

    Poll: To beer or not to beer?

    No beer. In fact, no alcohol altogether. If you need beer to make things fun, then you're not really having fun.

    Controller Breaking Moments

    After trying about 30 times to get through the final mission in Call of Duty 4 on Veteran, I finally get to the very end, and I panic and shoot the hostage in the head. It took me another 30 or so tries to get back there and that time I really did shoot the right person, thankfully. Also...
