| I kind of have to disagree with the school idea. Even during the summer, there wasn't too much posting. 146 total posts on June 10.
But again, I am comparing things to the first couple of months when Xeogaming first started ... when we had an easy 300+ everyday, all quality, and everything. Anyways, I'm not closing down this site because of this (the activity is LOW, but it's not -nothing-), and this site will be around for quite some time (I am about to make another payment for the hosting, and as you've seen our hosting is great now). I'm basically in agreement with Benja here. We just need fresh members. It seems like the Shrina people left, and even though that brought up boiled heads, in a sense I kind of liked having them around. Activity was going up. But really, we could use some new, people that have never even heard of this place, and became active. (I mean, we have been getting these members, but you know what I mean). It's good to see a few returning members from MoD come back, like Evo (had to pick on ya  ), but there's still quite a few members who haven't come back. If they did, surely that would help too.
So yeah, like Benja said, even though we have 300+ registered users, 70% of them haven't even posted, and aren't that active. We could really use just some new good newbies if you ask me. (Last edited by XeoLord on 10-11-05 10:26 AM) |

| I just think a lot of people have gotten bored, left, or just don't care ... honestly.
I mean, fact of the matter is, I'm in school all day everyday of the weekday, and then I work 30 hours a week on top of that, and I still get in more posts than a lot of other users, even when it doesn't feel like I'm posting that much at all. I'm not trying to argue, just pointing out a fact. Yeah, it is just a weird time for us all, a lot of us are older and everything, but still even before school was up the activity wasn't that grand. And looking at other boards, I see older people (in their young 20's) as the top and normal posters. So, I don't know what to say. Again, I'm not trying to argue with anyones opinions here, and I agree with a lot of things (Evo's case, College stuff, etc), but still, it just feels like we could be doing -something- to help out, but we're not.  |

| I don't think I ever saw this before.
Wish I never would have either ... those are just ... wow.
When I first saw the image I just couldn't stop thinking of Socom' Boppers. |

| Well, I've actually had the car for a few months now.
96' Silver Acura, 3.2 TL series. It's extremely nice, just has a ton of miles on it. 
(140,000+) I also guess it would be nice to say here, I recently got my 90 Day Review in at Jiffy Lube, and got a 50 cent raise.  |

| Even though I was gaming way before the days of OoT, I do have to say I have a ton of memories with OoT.
I was just obessed with that game when if first came out. I probably had 50+ hours on it. Out on the field I would walk around everywhere, just looking at things, and possibly trying to find secrets. I also remember the day I played through the Water Temple, from the beginning to the end (once I get into a dungeon in a Zelda game, I don't quit until I beat it). I remember it took me a good 3-4 hours to beat that Temple! I also remember how glitchy this game was. After I got the Biggoron sword, I turned that stone tablet (that you use to get the sword) into a bottle. 
And yeah, this is one of the few newer games I've gone back to beat tons of times. I went through it multiple times on the N64, challenged myself in not getting very many hearts, etc. And then I beat it a few times over for the GC, through the special edition disc, and the collectors disc. Evo: The Master Quest is nothing special in my opinion, and it also was actually probably easier. In a lot of the Temples in the Master Quest, you get the Temples item right from the beggining almost (so, only a few minutes into the Water Temple and you should be able to get the Longshot). The Spirit Temple and Ganon's Tower were changed a lot, and actually much harder, but other than that, it didn't seem like anything too special to me. If you loved OoT though, I'd say it's worth playing through at least once. |

| I can't quite remember if I played this one, or the 2nd one.
I just know my friend has both complete games (he has the special boxes, character stand-up things, and all those goods) and he let me borrow one of them. I think the main character's name was Hiro, but ... I could be wrong. I'm thinking I borrowed the 2nd one. |

Originally posted by Hyatt It was basically the first game for the PS2 made by this same company, and I think the games are even somewhat related. You'd probably recongnize it if you saw a picture or something. The art was amazing for it's time, and throughout the game you had to hold hands with his girl and walk around to places while solving puzzles. The game kind of played like a Zelda-ish game. But yeah, it's pretty underrated, and definitely worth picking up. I'm pretty hyped about this game, after playing ICO. I still find it hard to believe those are PS2 graphics, the game just simply looks absolutely amazing. |

| Well, I'm the opposite of that then.
I was a diehard fan of TSS, and was watching it way before G4 bought out TechTV (when Leo was the main guy). So, I hated the change. AoTS isn't even close to being related to TSS, or even replacing it if you ask me. Sure, the humor in the show is great for the nerdier folk (myself), but I just find almost everything to be on that show to be ultimately retarded. I've told my friends the basic concept of the show seems to be "Let's show people funny things on the internet". And the bands that play at the end? I'd rather listen to Acid mixes (broken up techno that hurts) So yeah, just my opinion. I've pretty much stopped watching G4 altogether now, seeing how this show turned out, and how they're putting shows like that car show, and that one hour long series that makes no sense, it's seriously like another MTV now, in a few years they'll maybe have one show focused on videogames. The only show I still care about, and would care to watch, is X-Play and probably G4TV.com. Other than that, I just can't stand G4. (Last edited by XeoLord on 10-14-05 01:25 PM) |

| Yeah, last time it took quite awhile to do that, but hopefully it won't be too long this time around.
Anyways, as for the categories, I was just thinking of using the previous ones we had, but maybe adding a few more. Edit: Well, I can't seem to find the old thread ...
I'm guessing I either didn't make the thread, or it's been an extremely long time since we did this (before the last restart I guess?) (Last edited by XeoLord on 10-16-05 11:21 PM) |

| I'm kind of in Tamarin's situation. I grew up with parents smoking a ton, but eventually my dad quit and hasn't smoked for years and years, but my mom still does.
It was pretty bad back then, I wouldn't be surprised if I have a minor influence of second hand smoke in me, but whatever. Because of that, and because of what I've seen what it can do to your lungs, and because I could careless to dish out the insane amount of cash it costs to buy them just to burn my lungs away, I don't plan on ever doing it. Everybody does it at my work, except for me and one other guy. It seems pretty common, even for people my age and younger. Legally, since I'm 18 now I COULD buy them, again, but why? |

Originally posted by The Politician Yeah. I just got frustarated with the water level things. I mean, yeah, that dungeon wasn't necessarily long, it just had those "little" things in it that take you forever to figure out, and once you do, you smack yourself for not thinking of that before. |

| Even though they haven't been at the top of their game for years, I"d say that Nintendo pretty much brought the videogame industry to the level of what it is these days. Without them, would Sega have even created their own console, for competition? And so many other things.
Simply put, I just don't think videogames would be where they are today, if the NES was never created. |

Meh. I just don't know why so many people smoke. |

| I was thinking about getting this game, but J. Literal, I think I've been sold.
I've heard it's supposedly at least 40 hours long too, you hardly see that these days. |
