    The old MoH games aren't bad at all really.

    Just made me think: Commandos Strike Force (Xbox) is it 360 compatible? That's another nice oldie.

    MoH Rising Sun was pretty bad. Me and my cousin rented that ages ago and beat it in the same day.

    MoH Pacific assault is pretty good!

    If you call a shooter bad simply because you finished it in a day then you mustn't really like shooters
    Never played Pacific Assault, PC exclusive I guess?

    Buffy is original in the sense it was probably one of the first times that specific combination of tropes was used in a TV show, but the tropes themselves are pretty common. "Person struggling to adapt to strange new town" is as old as literature itself and the whole "Must hide double life from parents and authority figures" isn't far behind, doubly so when even in real life that's something pretty much every teenager goes through to some extent. The things that made the show special were the heavy use of pop culture references, the quality of the writing and the way the tone could shift seamlessly between drama and comedy. For me it was also one of the first TV shows I can remember that really nailed the attitude and feel of a good comic book. Joss Whedon is very much influenced by the medium and has talked openly about basing the character of Buffy on X-Men's Kitty Pryde - Marvel themselves were so impressed with his work they even gave him his own X-Men title to write a few years back.

    Also to continue our conversation yesterday before we were so rudely interupted by that site fart. Yeah MIB3 was HD. You're right about Tommy Lee, I thought it might be his age but no, he looked 80.

    I wish I had motivation.

    I'm finally starting to put the weight back on that I lost around a year ago from not eating.

    I should do something about it but I can't be arsed.

    I want a second job so I can afford a car, again, can't be arsed. Motivation, I wish I had it.

    precisely. and since it was one of the first legitimate few to incorporate all of those into a single medium later series (Secret World of Alex Mack for instance) copied the medium and only recreated even a slight semblance of decency in the novels. the tv show sucked big time.

    might i also mention that most newer Disney Channel movies copied this to the point of insanity? to the point of there is no legitimate reason why they even bother trying to do what they do, etc?
