That would be cool. Dr. Evil really stole the show in all 3 movies. He's by far my favorite character. I find Austin Powers to be boring. Toss me a frickin' bone here! Goldmember was OK and had a funny line or two. Fat Bastard was marginally better. But Dr. Evil was great.

Maybe it's my libertarian leanings and lack of trust for the government, but I say Fury is the scariest. He's scary in a "real world" way that the others aren't - there is no such thing as a mutant or a nuclear-powered monster, and a vigilante only hunts criminals. But in the real world we have no-knock warrants, Ruby Ridge, The Patriot Act, Waco and Mike Nifong. Um, Frank Castle fought in Vietnam. Nick Fury fought in World War II.

After supreme effort, I finally got 5 stars on every level with every character. It wasn't easy! I had to go to the store, buy a codebreaker device, select the "max score" cheat, and then run around the levels avoiding enemies until the timer ran out. The village was especially tough, as I had to make it to the tower alive and climb the ladder - no enemies follow you up there. Always remember that it's only cheating if you get caught.

He makes a good point with the Mortal Kombat movie. Seriously, PG-13?

This isn't about video games, but raises an important point... ****SNIP**** http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/25/opinion/25sun1.html Lieberman showed himself to be a dangerous supporter of censorship in the early 1990's with his jihad (pun intended) against video games like Mortal Kombat. If he was stopped then, he would not be leading the charge now.

I just want to see Solid Snake reject Otacon's help over the radio, using 1 Corinthians 5 as justification: "Put away from among yourselves that wicked person." :laugh: "It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife." That would be absolutely hilarious.

Resident Evil 4: I beat the game without cheating, and I beat Separate Ways without cheating. I've played mercenaries a bit. It's impossible (for me anyway) without infinite health & ammo, but even with that getting 5 stars with all of the characters (especially Krauser) is a daunting task. But I really want that handcannon. So, I'm looking to cheat. I have a Gameshark - anyone know of Gameshark codes that would help me out here? Something to directly enable the handcannon or max points in the mercenaries game would be awesome. I've done an exhaustive web search and I'm coming up with nothing. I've found a couple leads on Action Replay codes, but I don't own it and I'm not looking to buy one.

Obviously it has to be set in the 1980's, but really, what's the point? The first one was awesome. Leave it be, I would be OK with it set in modern times on two conditions. 1. North Korea is one of the invading countries 2. Kim Jong Il says, at least once, "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW ****ING BUSY I AM?"

Here's an interesting question. I just re-read the Spider-Man TPB that featured "Ethan", a parody of Superman who turned out to be an insanely powerful Skrull. So, is "Ethan" going to play a big role in Secret Invasion?

OK. I'm glad I didn't break out the L-Word, then. It would not have been fair. Of course, the L-Word does apply in so many cases where video games are being criticized, so you'll have to pardon me if there's a trust issue here. For example, Jack Thompson is a documented liar.

http://www.onenewsnow.com/Culture/Default.aspx?id=112608 **Sigh** How "sexually explicit" is GTA IV? I've got a sneaking suspicion that "sexually explicit" isn't an accurate label, but before I break out the L-Word I need more info.

I love politics. I've volunteered for candidates and issue-advocacy groups. I even ran for office myself (and lost badly). But will it mix with comics? I don't think so - honestly, it if it is going to be anything it is going to be boring.

But don't you know? Bully was a "Columbine simulator"! Jack Thompson said so!

:laugh:

Superman punched a hole in the Cyborg at the end of the "Return of Superman" storyline, and Cyborg was both Kryptonian flesh and Kryptonian metal. The problem with doing that (as others have mentioned) is that punching yourself in the chest is an awkward angle.

Oh, man, I am SO buying this. Please don't mess this up like Capcom did with theirs.

I hated the Brother Love character on WWF television in the early 1990's but I have to admit I laughed when I read your suggestion. That would be a hilarious "What If?" story once Secret Invasion runs its course, played as a comedy.

I Googled it and finally found a cheat that works. With "cars fly" turn on, the other racers floor it and go airborne. Then you have the track all to yourself. You leisurely drive through the course, making sure not to go too fast. Why no, Catalina, I didn't have an unfair advantage. Why ever do you ask? I still hate Claude.

I was hoping there was a cheat that would help me win. I had a hard time with one of the previous races until I punched in the "your car destroys everything like a tank" chat. That doesn't work in farewell my love because it destroys your car too.

Also, isn't Hulkling a Skrull/Kree hybrid? Gotta wonder if he's gonna play a major role in Secret Invasion. I hope Aunt May is a Skrull, so we can decide that she has been dead since they killed her off in Amazing Spider-Man 400. She should have stayed dead.

The danger with this storyline is it could seriously mess up Marvel history. I've already given up on Spider-Man after One More Day and if too much else is rewritten/retconned it could be really annoying. One tiny example: when Hank Pym puked after seeing Wasp in bed with Hawkeye, was he a Skrull then? Do the Skrulls have the ability to puke on command to make the act more convincing? Loved the Jarvis and Captain Marvel being Skrulls. Captain Marvel should have stayed dead, and this is a chance to put that right. Jarvis makes perfect sense and doesn't involve a huge retcon. My guess is Black Bolt was replaced right after World War Hulk. The reason I say Black Bolt was real in WWH is that, with that kind of international media coverage, the whole plot would have been blown right out of the water had the Skrull Black Bolt been killed. The Skrulls would have been forced to intervene after Black Bolt's capture by Hulk.

OK, about a year ago, I stopped playing GTA: San Andreas because I couldn't get past that race with Claude from GTA 3. I recently popped it back in, and while I'm improving I just can't win that race. Unless I win the race, I can't proceed to the rest of the story. Can anyone help me out here?

Everyone else probably knows this already, but I think it's awesome that they went and got the guy who played Perseus in Clash of the Titans (1981) to do the voice for Perseus in GOW 2.

Live to win! Live! Win! Sorry, had to make that crack. :devil:
