I never got to see any of the .Hack series on TV, but have madly been collecting all the series in Australia including the games. .Hack//Legend of the Twilight is great comic fun. I read the manga it is based on and laughed so hard it hurt. Watching it in a show I laughed even harder.

[COLOR=DarkOrange]The sense of the hunt was fresh and as Phil converged on the death dealers. He didn't care what happened to himself as long as he killed some vampires. He grabbed on in his claws and ripped open the creatures throat with his teeth. Suddenly he heard Michael yell out. Phil let out a large roar of disapproval and then retreated into the night. This would have been a night of feasting but that had been ruined once again by Michael's decision to retreat. Phil had never been happy with Michael's rise to leadership but as no one would challenge him that would remain. He also wasn't happy with the fact that their was a death dealer within their numbers. He had joined a recently formed group that were secretly planning to kill Selene and blame it on the Vampires. Maybe then Michael would become a stronger leader.[/COLOR]

I recently bought this album and I would have to say that it is the best they have made. I own all their CDs and this has some of the best riffs I have heard from them. Some of their songs are very much different but it is still great. "all to blame" which mixes old and new is great.

I'll say this much about death. It is inevitable, unpredictable and inconceivably scary. For an indication on the complexities of death I'm going to quote the entire poem by John Forbes known as "Death, An Ode". "[COLOR=Blue]Death, you're more successful than America, even if we don't choose to join you, we do. I've just become aware of this conscription where no one's marble doesn't come up; no use carving your name on a tree, exchanging vows or not treading on the cracks for luck where there's no statistical anomalies at all & you know not the day nor the hour, or even if you do timor mortis conturbat me. No doubt we'd Think this in a plunging jet & the black box recorder would note each individual, unavailing scream but what gets me is how compulsory it is- 'he never was a joiner' they wrote on his tomb. At least bingeing becomes heroic & I can see why the Victorians so loved drawn-out death-bed scenes: huddled before our beautiful century, they knew what first night nerves were all about.[/COLOR]" For a better understanding of the poem the latin means "fear of death confounds me".

I've been playing some of the Sonic Advances but I don't like them as much as the Sonic Adventures or the older games on Sega Master System and Sega Mega Drive. I owned the Master System versions and could finish all except Sonic 2 where I couldn't get the last chaos emerald. I've also been trying to find Sonic Adventure DX but as far as I know it's been discontinued here in Australia.

I would have to agree with some of the earlier responses and say that Wolfwood is the perfect example of a sidekick. Though sidekicks are usually always there, Wolfwood makes up for it by having a major impact on things. When Wolfwood [spoiler]dies[/spoiler] I was so pissed off that I started punching walls. He was a great character.

I have to say Yellowcard. I also hate Lost Prophets with a passion. Mind you it took a while for me to get into Yellowcard. They are really emo and the use of the violin is sweet.

I've borrowed this game from my video store dozens of times because it's highly addictive. :D This is one of the greatest games ever and I would have to agree that Shadow is by far the best Sonic character.

This game is giving me hours of fun and pain. I've had to start again for the second time. The first was because I started on easy and then decided to play normal mode. The recent time is because I reached the second Shrine of Kaddan visit on level 45 and was getting pounded. Still it's a great game and I've spent about 50 hours playing.

Name: Phillius (Phil) Szabo Gender: Male Race: Lycan Weapon(s): Magnum and Uzzi both with UV bullets. Also uses claws and teeth. Bio: Phil is more of a solitary creature keeping solely to himself, but will gladly follow orders when it involves the destruction of the vampires. The loss of his family in the early stage of the war has instilled in him a cruel and malicious side that is always displayed when he attacks. His preffered weapon is the magnum due to it's superior firepower but he is never scared to pull out the uzzi if he is ever in a sticky situation. His loyalties lie with Michael but he is not too sure about Selene, though he keeps his reservations secret. Apperance: He has black hair and dark green eyes that almost appear to be black. He wears a black suit making him appear like a normal human allowing to him to mingle with them easier and not be detected by the vampires.

Of my three main characters one is at level 32 and the other two are at 31. I was wondering is this to low a level for the area I'm at which is a short stage into disk 2? I'm only playing through the first time so I'm trying to see the game fairly quickly. I also didn't pick up Roger after he left the part the first time, am i going to miss anything important?

For me they are: Jak 3 - the final installment of the series and set to be the greatest of the games. The addition of Light Jak is awesome and the wasteland is expected to be at least five times larger than haven city. Final Fantasy XII - Supposedly set for a release date early in 2005, it is set in Ivalice the world of FFTA. As far as I know the storyline revolves around corrupt judges. The graphics are set to be the greatest of any Final Fantasy game. Kingdom Hearts 2 - To be released late 2005, this game has been three years in the making. Hopefully this is where square enix has chosen to end the series but it looks great. From available pictures it looks to be a much darker game to the first and the questions I have from information on websites, the teaser at the end of The first game and pictures are: Has Ansem returned? And why does Sora have two keyblades?

[QUOTE=faiyt]Why would they just set the game in elacor II that is stupid i was hoping to see futuristic cities and see aliens etc. That has made me feel quite bad now. Is the whole game from then on in just in that place??? :eek: I HOPE NOT :flaming:[/QUOTE] I'm not sure as I'm still only on disk 1. I have only just completed the Temple of Kaddan and am only 20 hours in. I haven't been levelling up much but my characters don't seem to suffer.

I understand that Evanescence isn't Goth metal but there is also such thing as Goth rock which they are. I just purchased the CD Comalies by Lacuna Coil and am absolutely loving it. I'm annoyed because I'm unable to get After Forever in Australia. Other bands my friend has told me about are Epica, Disturbed and Within Temptation.

[QUOTE=ambulite]Man i have it is truly good i made a post on it a few mins ago, hard to find a game with good acting isnt it and well im still in the medeval world where r u?? I hope after that world it doesnt change disk coz i would b really pissed :([/QUOTE] If you mean that the medieval world as in Elicoor II, then no because almost the whole game is set there. I think some of the problems you guys are talking about were fixed in the Australian/European version because the other party members seem to have fairly decent AI.

[COLOR=MediumTurquoise]Ando stepped closer to see what was written on the piece of bloodstained paper. He had to admit that it was very poetic. It seemed to touch him and he felt pitty for this person who's name he could not, for the life of him, remember. Lauren, who he could remember, muttered something under her breath to the guy and then suddenly left the room. Now it began to get awkward for Ando. He wasn't sure what to do or what to say. He had never been caught in this situation before. He took a seat next to the guy on the bed and was about to speak when a girl and another guy burst into the room. The girl seemed to say something to the guy next to her which Ando didn't catch a little too distracted by the interference and the guy beside him sobbing away. [B]"My name is Maria and this is Steven my roomie."[/B] The girl said happily. Ando didn't know how someone could be happy entering a room where a man's heart lay shattered in pieces on the floor. He thought maybe he could satisfy her curiosity about name's quickly so she would leave and he could get back to help the guy next to him. [B]"Ah...hi. I'm David but everyone calls me Ando. This is ...."[/B] And then it suddenly came back to him who the guy next to him was. [B]"This is Leon."[/B] He paused for a moment wondering what to do next. Here was a situation that had gone from bad to worse and wasn't going to get any better in Ando's eyes. He looked around the room to see if there was any way to escape. There wasn't. He looked back at Maria and Steven. [B]"Is there anything you two wanted or was this just a mistake? Can't you see I'm trying to help Leon here?"[/B] If his Gothic appearance was to be ruined he may as well take it the whole nine yards. [/COLOR]

I have a favourite character from each series that I watch so I'll go with a character who is in one of my all time favourite series. And that character is Vash the Stampede from [B]Trigun [/B]. Now he might not seem like that good a character but I absolutely loved the stupidity of the guy. He always seems calm and collected but in the first few episodes he defeats the villain with some wacky, out there idea. It is also cool when he goes berserk with that gun of his especially when it fuses to his arm.

I always thought that the second film was a mix of both Resident Evil 2 and 3. I've never played the games but i still thought the first movie was sweet. I recently looked at the back of the soundtrack and saw all the gothic bands and fell in love. I'm hoping they play some of those songs in the film. Note: in Australia it hasn't been released yet and will only get an MA rating.

I got one that's pretty annoying. This girl I take to my formal is good looking and seems to have a lot in common with me. After my formal I can't stop thinking about her and because I rarely see her I SMS her asking her out. About a month later my sister comes and asks me if I was asking that girl out on a date or just as friends. It turned out that she just wanted to be friends and mind you I have only heard back from her twice since the formal. My heart shattered.

I've been waiting for this game since it was announced but I'm not sure if it is going to be released in Australia where I live. The first game was awesome and this could only be better. What I'm disappointed about though is the fact that Alice isn't in the game. I mean didn't she end up with Yuri at the end of the first?

I bought this game and love it. I don't really care that Enix didn't work with the Square side of the company as they both make awesome games. I made sure I downloaded the first game before buying this and by reading all the info in the dictionary I discovered this is set about 400 years after the first. I've never played the second so i don't know the difference in years.

[COLOR=MediumTurquoise]Ando was awoken suddenly by a heavy banging coming a few doors down from his room. He was unsure of what it was knowing that it sound far to thick to be anything like construction work or an action flick. He got out of bed and grabbed a snack from his bag before heading down the hall. As he walked down he noticed the door to 12G was slightly ajar and so he decided to look in. He noticed the guy with the scar on his face was sitting on one of the beds, hands trembling, and blood seeping out of cuts in his hands. Another girl, different to the one he had seen with the guy before had begun to bandage his hands. [B]"Are you okay, mate?"[/B] [/COLOR]

[COLOR=MediumTurquoise]Ando watched the girl leave the room with some guy who had a scare on his face. All hopes that he might have had before that point were suddenly dashed. He put in his mind to forget about her. It wasn't like he would have stood a chance. How many people really like a goth? Even if it was a facade that he just used to hide who he really was. He got up and left the room with Night Wish's "Elvenpath" filling his ears. As he past the Gym he saw some guy doing some dance thing. It seemed kinda gay to him but it was very hypnotic. He stood there transfixed watching this guy doing some sort of dance. He heard something crash and he was back to himself again. He quickly walked away praying not to be seen. He now had Night Wish's "Phantom of the Opera" playing and realised he had been standing there for about ten minutes. He returned to his room at 11E and sat down to draw. As he began to draw he noticed he was drwing a caricature of that guy who had been dancing. Had it really affected him that bad? He scrunched up the paper and began again. Not matter how hard he tried he kept drawing the same thing as before. He decided it was just getting to him so he decided to have a rest.[/COLOR]

Ok I must say firstly that yours is worse than mine. Mine starts when I got out of bed. I started out the day with a splitting headache which didn't ease off as the day wore on. On the way to school I had gum stick itself to the side of my pants which I had to peel off with my fingers. During second period a kid made a comment directed towards me that offended me. I got up out of my chair and went to hit him. He hid behind a table and I shoved it over. He dodged and the table went through the wall. I got a detention which i had to serve on the last day of term.

[COLOR=MediumTurquoise]Ando took a seat by himself at the back of the room. Lacuna Coil was blaring in his his ears. He noticed that a large group had begun to form at one of the other tables. He took a look that way and noticed a cute girl that he hadn't seen before. At least he didn't think he recognised her. He silently cursed his nature of distancing himself from other people. The problem was that he believed he never stood a chance with any girl. Having a low self esteem really hurt him. There were many girls that Ando had always considered talking to but could never work up the courage. Ando just sighed to himself and went back to eating his food. It wasn't like there was anything he could do. [/COLOR]
