1. My boss was away for most of the month.
2. We have a huge TV in the meeting room doing nothing.
3. I was going to invest in a Gamecube
4. I was going to hammer the new Zelda.
Just checked the release date and I am a month out! It is not released until early May. I am now going to buy myself a huge bar of Cadbury's chocolate to console myself (sob).

I'll never be able to forgive him for the Wonder Years.

Not before spending an hour or so trying to stare out a goldfish. That way, I won't be able to close my eyes, and hence hide from the travesty happening before me on the TV screen...

Heh heh! I remember that film. It was incredibly poncy.
I never thought amazingly high of Mario 64, I was stunned by it when I first saw it running but after the original shock of the graphics wore off I found the game to be quite boring to be honesty. IMO Banjo Kazooie was better.
That's why I loved Mario Sunshine so much, it was much more like Banjo just 10 times better.

Not when THE WHOLE GAME is based around it. I thought there'd be a few stealth elements or something else, but no. Smash him, smash her, hit him, through him through something. Level completed - onto the next level. Repeat. So if he's supposed to be preventing crimes, why does he go round killing people? Madness!
I'm returning it tomorrow. I'll go in, joypad whip the puny sales assistant and demand my money back. Or else he'll get the "Minority Report" treatment.
It was so good, they unveiled it by making it the finale of a Gaming competition in the film "Wizard".
The film was gay though, and has the most gay quote in existence:
"I looooove the power glooooove"

> I own Reign of Fire, and I want Robotech...
Yay! Actually, no, you hate RoF!
You should play it more, after you've got past the control issue it's great.
> Mario IS highly overrated.
I thought it was one of his finest moments bar Super Mario Bros 3 which I still regard as being the finest Mario game ever made.
These days people expect the bloody moon on a stick.

Nooo! Reign of Fire is good. If anyone can be bothered to play past the second level they'll see how good it is. Robotech may not be so good, but I think it looks alright.
Anyway, Mario was good fun, but there so much hype surrounding it and is far from a classic.
Questioning my taste... pfffft :-D
I haven't played Ace

Yes, but smashing people through stuff is quite fun...for for one off goes.
