Wed, 10 Feb 2010 06:21:06 -0500

I ever read some instruction of this website .It says that it is the paradise for golf beginners and also present some gift for golf players. I want to have a try. Is there any suggestion?

Favorite game.

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 06:19:25 -0500

I like to play Jigsaw's Puzzles.Because Jigsaw's Puzzle being a puzzle game, Saw would be in trouble if those puzzles were bad. Fortunately, they're not – well, not all of them, at least. The first half of the game keeps things interesting by throwing at the player a good mix of puzzles, the most complex of which occur at the end of each level, when you must save one of Jigsaw's victims.Some of these are unique in one, blue and red vials are dropped into a succession of tubes that pivot left or right; you must use gravity-related logic to make sure each colored vial ends up in its respective vat.Other end-level puzzles are more complex versions of those that appear in other forms throughout the game.

Apple mac.

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 06:13:14 -0500

I have been thinking of trying mac OS for a few years now but never got a chance or you can say I never took the plunge.Do we have any mac users here on our forum? I would like to know is it really worth a try as the only operating systems Ive ever used were windows and symbian for phones and nothing else..What exactly are the pro's and con's of mac OS as compared to other operating systems and how does it compare with windows xp in particular? Any suggestion would be most welcome as I am thinking of buying a new laptop very soon and if mac is any good then I would go for aapple this time, Is mac ok on laptops? are there any major or even minor drawbacks one should know before buying an apple laptop?

Greetings to all!

Hello,

My name is Brennen,

As far as I can recall, I have been drawn to anime (8 years old.) I have watched endless hours and more series/movies/OVAs than I probably should openly admit in public. But, I love the stuff and enjoy every moment of it.

I attended WSU for about 2 years where I studied Business and Japanese. However, currently I'm unable to attend due to a full time job.

I see mentioned on the site there is MTG(Magic The Gathering) during the viewing. How large is the group that generally plays games? I've been looking for a good group of mature individuals to enjoy some matches with.

Is there usually always a turnout on Thursdays? Also, anyone is welcome at anytime, correct?

Hope to meet you all soon and enjoy some good times.

Regards,

NoF(Brennen)

Guidance needed from this awesome club with mucho experience!

Fri, 05 Feb 2010 00:54:06 -0500

Hello there I am trying to start an anime club for teens in my area. Right now we are just trying to get a kind of start up unofficial version of the club going in my school. We are currently asking the administrators for permission to have the club during "seahawk times" I currently go to Syracuse Jr. High School and am the president of the club. We are already trying to get screening rights to show Hamtaro(I own 1 of the DVDs so haha no moolah needed) for the first week of the school one. All others we show at school will be TVPG(that way the principal can't get ticked at us for "inappropriate content")it will most likely viewed by an administrator. We have already ordered "Save Me Lollipop" from Operation anime and plan to view that the 3 consecutive weeks after Hamtaro. I would love to have some guidance from you experienced anime clubbers. So if you would consent to it, post some tips on this board. I would also like to bounce some of my ideas for my club off of you guys, If that is ok of course. If you guys think that "aaaaaaah! its a competing club! quick delete the post and the account before we get infected!" then go ahead. I'm just new at this and would really appreciate it. so here are some quick facts about my club:
Name: Chibanime
Motto: A little Anime can go a long way!
Mascot: Chibi the Onigiri
Website: http://chibanime.webs.com/ (<---- surprisingly the name wasn't taken yet XD)
Club Status: Unofficial in school club during seahawk time(30 min time in between 4th and 5th period mon-thurs for students to do clubs or study hall)
Times anime(will be)shown: once a week, Thursday, each anime we show we will show the 1st 3 episodes
Show related activities will be on Mondays-Wednesdays
Special Events(1 per anime) will be shown on a wednesday instead of craft day
Mondays=everything day: discuss, perform skits, catch up on ur drawings
Tuesdays=learn how to draw the characters from the anime
So what do u think(ok I admit it those weren't exactly quick facts)
Nothing is set in stone, and we possibly won't even be able to do this at all if we're not approved by the school administration(sad face)
COMMENT AWAY!

Sat, 30 Jan 2010 22:16:08 -0500

Most successful Xbox 360 games...

Fri, 08 Jan 2010 06:11:02 -0500

The following are some of the most successful Xbox 360 games over the past 3 years.

7. Gears of War 2
The game is all kinds of fun. The graphics are spectacularly detailed, a highlight amongst Xbox 360 games, the combat is rich and satisfying, and the multiplayer is a source for ongoing entertainment thanks to a great mix of competitive and cooperative play modes.

6. Crackdown
Who would have ever thought that 500 green glowing orbs would become the focal point of our lives for a short period in 2007? Two years after its release, it's hard not to look back on Crackdown fondly. From the swan dive atop the Agency headquarters to the complete destruction of all of Pacific City's organized crime, Crackdown is a memorable foray into super-heroism. Its game play is unique amongst Xbox 360 games.

5. Grand Theft Auto IV
Few Xbox 360 games have effectively shut down the office during business hours, and GTA4 is one of them. Rockstar North's sequel is a beautiful depiction of the Big Apple, and the difference between GTA4 and its predecessors is vast.

4. Mass Effect
There are very few developers of Xbox 360 games that can compare to BioWare in the RPG space, and Mass Effect is a good example of why. It's a sweeping tale filled with excitement, action and fascinating alien races to learn about and interact with.

3. BioShock
In terms of story and art direction, BioShock hits a high-water mark for Xbox 360 games, that has yet to be equaled. While ostensibly a first-person shooter (the game offers incredible freedom when it comes to offering players creative ways to cause mayhem), it was really the extraordinary art direction and well-written dialogue that were the stars of the show.

2. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
This game saw the return of developer Infinity Ward, which brought with it a new level of realism and storytelling for first-person shooters. A departure from past Xbox 360 games in the series, which dealt with World War II, Call of Duty 4 takes a more contemporary approach using modern weaponry and current global crises. It also introduced perks, gameplay-enhancing bonuses that could be earned through online play

1. Fallout 3
This effort by Bethesda has silenced all but the game's most die-hard critics. Everything about Fallout 3, from the amazingly designed world to the haunting score to the slow-motion head explosions of the VATS system is top-notch. Fallout 3 is less a game to be played or a problem to be solved than an entire universe to be explored. This is THE must-have amongst all Xbox 360 games.

DS-Games

Fri, 08 Jan 2010 06:09:36 -0500

The world is full of different games, and gaming in itself is a different world altogether. It has its own fun, excitement and enthusiasm, which is incomparable to other forms of entertainment. And this holds true, especially in the case of Nintendo DS games, which have created a roar worldwide. They have a larger fan following than even Brad Pitt could manage!

Since the time the Nintendo gaming console has hit the market, the gaming experience has completely transformed. Not only do we see a greater variety in games, but we also have better graphics and facilities of multi-player games. Nintendo
games give an ultimately enchanting experience to a gamer, such that you are sure to be hooked on to it!

One of the key features of DS games is interactivity. The games engage and involve the player in an excellent way, and this is what sets them apart from all other sorts of games available in the market. They have interesting stimulating and role playing aspects which are enjoyed by both kids and adults alike.

All DS games can be previewed from Nintendo’s Wii channel, on the main menu. The channel gives out previews of all games, and also updates on the new DS games being launched. This way, the gamer is guaranteed full knowledge of the recent developments.

Some of the most famous Nintendo DS games include Guitar Hero and Mario Kart. Other games such as the Legend of Zelda- Phantom Hour Glass and Battles of Prince of Persia are also quite famous.

When buying DS games, certain things need to be kept in mind. One should always check on points such as reviews, rankings, number of players etc. Reviews by existing customers of the games, and rankings of DS games on the internet and other media such as newspapers and magazines help in the selection of good games.

Also check on whether the DS games you are planning to buy are suited for Wi-Fi connectivity. Moreover, there can be differences in the prices of DS games with different dealers. Hence, always do a comprehensive check with all dealers to compare prices before buying DS games.

Nintendo DS games are also known for their 3D graphics, and brilliant virtual environment. Again, user reviews and other information sources available help to know which DS games offer a better experience than the others.

DVD player problem.

Hello Friends.
I have LG DVD player. The problem is that it can't read the DVD or CD. I have tried all the
new CDs and DVDs, that I have, on it. But nothing is working. What's the reason behind
this? I think the lens has gone bad. Am I true? or something else?

Anime and American audiences

Sat, 19 Dec 2009 11:57:05 -0500

Anime and American audiences.
The Japanese term otaku is used in America as a term for anime fans, more particularly the obsessive ones. The negative connotations associated with the word in Japan have disappeared in its American context, where it instead connotes the pride of the fans. Only in the recent decade or so has there been a more casual viewership outside the devoted otaku fan base, which can be attributed highly to technological advances. Also, shows like Pokémon and Dragon Ball Z provided a pivotal introduction of anime's conventions, animation methods, and Shinto influences to many American children.

Ancient Japanese myths – often deriving from the animistic nature worship of Shinto – have influenced anime greatly, but most American audiences not accustomed to anime know very little of these foreign texts and customs. For example, an average American viewing the live-action TV show Hercules will be no stranger to the Greek myths and legends it is based on, while the same person watching the show Tenchi Muyo! might not understand that the pleated ropes wrapped around the "space trees" are influenced by the ancient legend of Amaterasu and Susano.
