  1. The only one I ever really liked was Lobo the Duck. Dark Claw came off as lame and forced to me. drq

    Spawn

    They discontinued it after, I believe, issue 25. The storyline explanation was that he visited hell and recharged indefinitely, but I think McFarlane just got too lazy to keep up with it. drq
  3. I despised this game. It was like a super-deformed Gauntlet Legends with piss-poor, $100 controllers. Terrible, terrible. drq
  4. Super Metroid still walks away with this one by a large margin. Prime was very good, but the relentless scanning you had to do slowed down gameplay and the really piss poor ending hurt it in my eyes. drq
  5. Just when I thought I'd killed the game. Go ahead, Yoda..
  6. The AI is a little nutty (like if you're wandering the field, low on life, and they see an enemy over a couple distant hills, they will SPRINT INTO BATTLE), but on the whole I loved this. It's a lot more fun going through it on the dark side than on the light. drq
  7. Yeah, it's packed with the HDD. At first I was adamant about not buying this load of crap. But now that we're closer to the launch date, I'm having second thoughts. I really, really want to play this game, and I guess the first two months are free. I'll beat it by then. I'm unsure, still doubtful. drq
  8. Star Ocean: The Second Story, bitches!! One of the most entertaining, challenging, enjoyable RPG / action games I've ever played, if you can stand the outrageously bad voice acting after every battle. There are supposedly more than two dozen different endings, just as many extra characters, hundreds of side quests and a really solid main story. I can't WAIT for the third one to come out. This is $10-$20 used at EB right now. Go buy it. drq
  9. If they included it with a cel-phone plan free of charge, I'd think about it. Otherwise, forget about it. drq
  10. Yeah, assuming once Supes knew one of them had to go down (and thus wouldn't mind obliterating Logan), he'd just fire him up with the heat vision and it'd be the end of the story. You can't regenerate if there's nothing left. drq
  11. This wouldn't be a fight. The Kingpin would break Luthor's phone (and his face) before double-L managed to get a word out. drq
  12. Let's stick with the Sam Kieth... He did the art for an old TMNT rip-off series near the start of his career. Name it. drq

    Spawn

    I was an enormous Spawn fan when the series first started. My first issue was #5, which still sticks out in my mind as a highlight of McFarlane's career, both in art and in storytelling. I bought it religiously until issue 90-something, and then realized how god-awful it had become. I won't even think about it any more. drq
  14. I broke a handful of controllers trying to pass the underwater stage of TMNT1. Damn those currents... I love TMNT2, though, because of the extra life code. drq
  15. Batman's smarter than Daredevil. It'd be all Murdock offense until Bats accidentally discovered his handicap, threw down a sonic stun grenade or something along those lines, disoriented him and whupped his ass hardcore. drq
  16. Transformers #1. The old Marvel mini-series. drq
  17. That article reminded me... I've got ROB sitting around somewhere too. drq
  18. Of these options, PS2. None of them beat the Dreamcast, though. Still. drq
  19. I'm the only one with a Turbo Grafx 16? I've got one of those, a NES, a SNES, an N64, a PSone, a PS2, a GameCube, a Dreamcast, a Gameboy original (pre-pocket, absolutely pre-color), a GBA, a Phillips CD-i, a Mattel Aquarius, a PC, a Mac and up until about two months ago, when it quit working, an Xbox. drq
  20. I've got a PowerGlove that I found at Goodwill a long while ago... weird thing is, it's not set up for the NES. The connection at the end of the cord is for a serial port or something. I had the power pad when I was a kid (remember the big DDR pad lookin' thing that had twelve buttons on it, all blue or red?) I kicked ass at the long jump on NES Track and Field.... I had a couch on one side, so I could jump and support my own weight for a couple seconds before landing. I'd jump like 40'. I also own three (!) PlayStation DDR pads. One is mutilated to the point it's almost unusable, because the first time we modded our pads, we just strapped them to some wood instead of padding them, and after about six months, the plastic on the back of the pad itself completely shredded. We've since re-modded them with carpet fragments between the wood and the pads, and that's working out much better for us. I want the Samba de Amigo maracas, but I can't justify the outrageous prices they run on ebay, and I've got the SeaMan microphone for my Dreamcast. drq
  21. I thought Nicholas Cage was set in stone to play the title role in this one. That poor guy can't keep a comic role to save his life. drq
  22. Smax? Yeah, and I'm loving it... but the whole precinct needs to come back. drq
  23. Nah, once Batman discovered DD was blind, he'd find a way to exploit it. Magneto would pretty much wipe the floor with him. Any heavily powered villain with a head on their shoulders could, honestly. drq
  24. Top Ten is far from shabby, too. I actually liked that better than League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. I just wish he'd hurry the f up with season two. drq
