I just glanced through the threads in System Wars after the ToU changes, what the actual f***. Ugh.
[/QUOTE]
SW comprises mostly of doom threads createdby ninty fanboys,apple fanboys and one really annoying bandodger now a days with a couple of threads making fun of fanboy groups.Some joke threads by peoplehave also been created.And some probableSCEA canadian employee named Kyle Moffat created a user account on GS and posted a bit on that forum.
[/QUOTE] No, it's people rehashing the same stuff trying to get a rise out of people by coming up with controversial/ignorant/unpopular/flaming topics over and over and over and over and over. There are MAYBE ten quality posters on that board. It used to be semi interesting over there, but since the ToU changes it's nothing but spam. - Jan 3, 2012 7:25 am GMT

It only makes things worse. Clear your throat or swallow instead.
Also, gurgle salt water. It only makes things better.
I had that bug about a month ago. The sore throat didn't stay sore for long because I followed my own advice, but the whole thing lingered for a little over a week. In the last few days, my only symptom was "coughing up" gross stuff, but instead of coughing, I would just breathe out with some force and it would come up.

The doom threads are part of the spam.At least the one good thing about the new TOU is figuring out the alts of the people who create these threads.Me and and a bunch of other people are trying to get a level requirement system for that board.Come show your support for it if you want the spam to stop.

I never cough haha, the saline mix helps a lot, surprisingly not a lot of people I've met know to do that :O I usually don't have these for very long, yesterday I felt horrible but today I feel exponentially better
I very rarely get sick and usually get over it fast, but GAH I hate it.[QUOTE="JordanElek"]

- Jan 3, 2012 4:39 pm GMTMy suggestion to the other mods/admins about making the rules more like NeoGAF were basically ignored. I love the way NeoGAF's ToU is because it's straight forward and to the point. No stupidity and you'll be fine.

I finally beat Skyward Sword today and with out saying much else, I am very pleased with how it ended, and the product as a whole.
This is a game that really got me back in to gaming as a passion, whereas before I was in a bit of a slump, where I used gaming mostly as a time waster rather than anything else.
Perhaps I'll write my first formal game review with this.

I just started playing Metroid Prime Trilogy again from my last save which was from MP1. I'm at the 3rd level of the Phazon Mines. I wonder how much I have left 'till I finish the game?

No. I played the first one when a friend of my mother's borrowed me his GameCube, but I couldn't get into it. Ironically a few years after, I bought it again along 2 & 3 so I can play them on my Wii but didn't like them then either except for 3 but even that one couldn't hold my interest for too long so I sold 3 at GameStop.
So then one day I find the Wii Trilogy for 10 euro, so I thought I should give it another chance. Now, thanks probably from the Wii controls, I'm hooked on Metroid Prime and can't wait to finish it so I can carry on to finish the rest of the Trilogy.

I have more games for the Wii than I've ever had for a console :O By far, 2nd would be my PS3 pre-break when I had about 12, 3rd was the Xbox with about 8, then the SNES/360 tied at 6

[QUOTE="ZumaJones07"]Which console did you guys buy the most games for, GC or Wii? I hate how the GC is regarded as Nintendo's worse console. I have twice the amount of games for it than I did for the Wii.[/QUOTE] I used my GC mostly for multiplats, while I've mostly bought exclusives for the Wii. So given the nature of exclusives, I've bought fewer Wii games. But I'd say that my Wii collection is of a much higher collection than my GC;s, but that has more ot do with me having better taste now than I did 5+ years ago. - Jan 3, 2012 8:28 pm GMT
I bought most of my games for the Wii since I only got the GC about two years before it was discontinued.I have about 14 or 15 Wii games and 7 GC games I sold two Wii games in the last week or two.
