[B]hehe, as The One knows cards really annoyed me recently (it was my two kings dammit!) :D But monopoly is unbelieveably annoying..... [/B]

[B]My God! England are ahead in DBZ dubbed episodes?! Final Atonement was shown a few weeks ago, and Goku went Super Saiya-jin 3 today. The sacrifice of us being ahead? Terrible, TERRIBLE voice-overs.[/B]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Amphion [/i] [B]Sorry, no offense but I dont feel sorry for you. I am glad they are like that. We just had 8 to 10 people come over here on visas to go to school and the used it to learn to fly and take out two of the biggest buildings in america killing loads of innocent people. Age doesnt matter either, there are young 15 16 year old palestinian suicide bombers. I dont think they sould cut people from coming all together but I am glad they are very strict now. Thanks to the wacked Clinton administration just about anyone could walk over here when they felt like it. I doupt seriously you wont kill anyone so keep trying I am sure they are just trying to keep anything bad from happening, thats something yuo will just have to understand. [/B][/QUOTE] [B]Yes, those people did get Visas and so forth, but that is no reason to stop a teenager from going over to America to spend time with his father. I think that this whole "anti-terrorism security" is getting way out of hand, my aunty recently got searched because American airport officials thought she had bombs planted in her barely half inch thick sandals! Final_Flash, I know how it must annoy the hell out of you but keep trying, you'll eventually get that Visa.[/B]

[B]Hate to crash the party, but I would just like to say something about Halo that I think a few people may agree with. Yes Halo is brilliant, but it feels like an add on to many FPS games, adding graphical touches and immense levels. The game starts off brilliantly, but starts to get repetitive, sure you can drive a jeep and fly planes, but when it's just constantly just blasting away at the covenant level after level it can get boring. I am not just saying this after 5 minutes of play, I played it all the way through to the last level. Anyone else think the same thing?[/B]

[B]I suppose this is in America, as over here in England Final Atonement has shown and the Majin Buu saga has started, which is very nice indeed. I would like for the show to restart at the Frieza saga, for those who have not seen the story before the Cell/Saiyaman/Buu sagas. I say this because DBZ ratings have gone up recently and a lot of people must have missed out[/B]

[B]It doesn't matter if guns/knives or any other kind of weapon are banned, that will not stop a person from obtaining such a weapon. In England, guns are banned, but this is merely a word, action has been taken, but I have seen "hoodies" waving guns around on the streets.[/B]

[B]Gogeta is the name given to the fusion in GT and the movies, Veggeto is the name given to the fusion in the series, although I don't know exactly how the names bear relation to the fusion (If someone would like to tell me I would be grateful). Vegeta and Goku use the Potarra earrings to make the fusion permanent instead of it being the regular 30 minute transformation, but I think they still get eaten by Buu. Hope that helps.[/B]

[B]I thought it was really good, nice storyline and nice merge of computer graphics with regular animation. I have to say that Cartoon Network did a very poor job on editing the series the first time round, they got a couple of complaints for some nasty violence in there..[/B]

[B]Just to inform you in case you missed it last time, Blue Submarine 6 is going to be shown on Cartoon Network at 6.30pm all next week after Dragonball Z, although this time it's not going to be all joined together like a movie, just in different episodes.[/B]

[B]Hey Seph and Deus.. Did you guys go to the Forbidden Planet and Another World in London? I have been to both stores and they do a number of anime titles such as bubblegum crisis and sailor moon, but I have been unable to find any movies, such as Street Fighter etc. Any other Forbidden Planet stores or Another World stores that do the DVDs/VHS?[/B]

[B]That doesn't happen like that in England, but we still have violent attacks happening over here over someones shoelaces. I think this kind of thing is getting way out of hand, the next generation is growing ever more violent, with gangs becoming the ever-growing trend.... Guns aren't used as often in England, but knives and gangs of 20 people are used just to steal a mobile phone over here. [/B]

[B]There's a middle eastern language that has something like 64 letters in it's alphabet, I bet thats mighty hard to learn. Although I can't remember the name of the language, I think it's in the guiness book of records under the longest alphabet in a language...[/B]

[B]I love the culture in Japan... I'm going to visit in a year or so, but not just to see sights and all the rest, I'm going to train there and I would like to buy a house in the countryside (if theres much left by then) in the future. [/B]

[B]I agree with Transtic and Altron on this one. Rogue, there have been many topics following the same repetitive line, although they may not have exactly have the same title, they are still asking the same question. I can bet it annoys the hell out of a lot of people here (it annoys me thats for sure) as the same kind of topic keeps cropping up every couple of weeks. (This part related to your question) I think that super saiya-jin 4 is like having the same amount of power a saiyan would have if he was in oozaru form, but has the speed and agility that comes with his humanoid form.[/B]

[B]My guess would be that they were all born with tails, like Gohan was, but their parents decided to cut/pull them off. The other side of the argument, there is no moon on the Earth (after Piccolo blew it up) so it wouldn't do any harm to have tails. But, like Transtic said, it would be something only Toriyama could tell you.. [/B]

[B]The GameCube price cut in England was announced by Nintendo a week before it's launch, to bring it in line with the prices in America and other European countries. [/B]

[B]V2 was my all time favourite, I joined after seeing the little icon on the corner of theotaku.com and felt right at home. I didn't see the demise of V2, my computer was in for repairs. V2 carries the fond memories (as you have all said) and the wars (which Nerdsy kindly reminds us of). [/B]

[B]Shenmue was a brilliant game, unrivalled in it's ingenuity. People who have played that game are enlighted gamers. It was truely fantastic (although not hugely popular), and deserves the respect of all gamers. [/B]

[B]Happy birthday James and Adam! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to..... I'll give up now, I'm just very excited about the new board!![/B]

[B]Yes it is illegal to download episodes, but if you do download them you are wasting your time. Most episodes play at 80kb a second, compared to a normal episode rate of 350kb (roughly), which makes the speed of the video go down, making the video jog and stutter in fast bits of an episode. I don't see why people don't search hard, there are loads of great import places on the net and stores in most countries that do DBZ movies and episodes.[/B]

[B]The Xbox has been on sale in Japan for roughly 2-3 weeks now, and has sold only 4,300 machines. Where in the same space of time, Gamecube and Playstation 2 have sold almost triple that amount and they have been out for a very long time in Japan. I am saying this because I feel that microsoft could have done much better in selling the Xbox in Japan. One of the strongest factors is the size of the Xbox, I doubt many Japanese people who live in cities will want a console that takes up most of their living room. Another strong point is the Japanese software enemies that Microsoft has made, for example Konami, who were not impressed by the console and were certain it was not going to sell well in Japan, also strong ties that Sony and Nintendo had already made with game software companies prevented Microsoft from getting any big games being ported to their console. (MGS2 is going to be ported to Xbox but it will be no different and the Xbox's power will not be used to make the graphics better.) [/B]

[B]I was bullied for 5 years, in which I was kept inside my house for entire weekends for fear of being beaten to a pulp by up to 20 people at once. I think that blaming the fact that someone kills 10 people in a school with a gun on bullying. This is the incorrect way to take action, against people who may not even know the shooter. I was lucky to meet the "leader of the gang" one night when I was 12 when he was on his own, I chased him down and nearly killed him. I know this is not correct, but you have to fight fire with fire. In the case of your friend Gohans Gurl, I offer my condolences and say that let this be an example of how bad things can get for a person.[/B]

[B]I do not have any siblings that come onto these boards, but I do have friends that come here: The One Blue Phoenix Other than that, the friends that I have made between the time I joined and now is more than enough. [/B]

[B]Well, it is the sword that was given to him by Tabion. Although, it should be unbreakable as Tabion tells this to Trunks at some point (can't remember exactly) during movie 13.[/B]

[B]I know there has already been a post about this (The Queen Mothers death) but I would like to take in everyones views on the British royal family or monarchies in general. The British royal family (Windsors) are worth 1.5 billion pounds. And own buckingham palace as well as other properties all over Britain and other parts of the world. Tax Payer money is used to keep this properties in pristine condition. Tax Payer money is used to keep the Queen and her family guarded and the gardeners in her garden actually also cost quite a bit to the tax payer. The Queen Mother recently died. Yes, it is a bad thing, someone died who is quite "famous", but the Royal Family has barely any [U]real[/U] power. If the queen was to graze her finger, it would be all over the news. She is about to have her Golden Jubilee. In which she is expecting to have streets shut down so parties can take place. I think this is insane. Why should we have to pay the Royal Family to keep their garden in order? She has no real power. And if one of our elder members of family was to hurt themselves, it wouldn't be on worldwide news. In England the newspapers will put the Queen on the front page after she hurt herself and a massacre on the third.[/B]
