No one gets mad at you for not crying at a funeral. Or at least no one in my family ever has.

It kind of bums me out that France isn't on the table. I don't want a WWII Assassin's Creed, but parkour was invented in Paris for god's sake. As for Feudal Japan, I could see that being a fun game. I'd prefer to play as the Christians, just because the Assassins seem like sneaky rebels and...

I've played through most levels in CoD4 at least 3-4 times (the exception being One Shot One Kill because... well anyone who's played it knows why). Oddly enough I almost never play the levels in order.

There were reenactments of attacks, obviously. Usually the hosts don't react to those though. There were certainly no real videos of real people dying, however. Also, if I remember, most of the victims in the reenactments were dressed as British soldiers or officials, just as the the victims in...

Exactly. You have to have the right mindset to enjoy the show. You have to see it as if it's you and your buddies sitting around and debating about why Master Chief would/wouldn't beat up the Terminator. If you're the kind of person who can't take a silly concept like that and have fun wit it...

I've never cried over a game, which is pretty weird, since tons of movies and even a few books have gotten me emotional. Maybe I just don't play deep enough games.

Jeez people, calm down. How could anyone be offended by this? He's not attacking gamers personally, or even games. He's doing his job as president and asking families to take an active role in raising their kids, instead of plopping them in front of the X-box. And seriously, I get that books...

Ok, I'm only a Sophomore, so this advice might not be too worldly, but it's the few things I've learned from experience. 1. Don't fight school/projects/homework. If you go into these things annoyed and mad, you'll never finish anything, and you'll never be happy. Just stay positive and get it...

Whatever the lake wants, baby. ;)

I'd prefer that they work on adding characterization to the non-romantic crew members. When I was playing the second game I found that I would always talk a lot more to Tali, Miranda, Jack, and Samara because I knew something meaningful could come out of it. With all the other characters, no...

The Jews killed Lincoln. That's why there is a triangle on the money.

I'll always use AD. Personally, I think using CE is a little silly, and here's why. I understand that some people who are trying to change to CE are attempting to make it more secular. I totally respect that, but unless we completely change the way our year system works, changing what we call it...

I fired a .22 in Boyscouts when I was 11. Unfortunately I had no idea how to use the sights so I missed every shot. I was also too young for the shotgun, which sucked. I live in suburban Massachusetts, so the opportunity to fire guns doesn't arise much. Plus barely anyone in my family has...

@ Scotland: It's not my tastes. It's a little too soft and folk for me. I like the classic loud, orchestra style anthems. Especially if the song has such proud lyrics. Here's my state's anthem: Yeah, really sounds like it was written in puritan Massachusetts, doesn't it? Unfortunately...

Inception definitely deserves best soundtrack. When I was watching it, I literally just sat back and said "Wow, this is amazing music." Most of the time I notice a good soundtrack afterwords, because in the movie it's put in the background behind action and explosions, but in Inception, I was...
