If you haven't seen it yet, you need to watch The Wrestler.

That ending was bullshit.
I liked the ending. It wrapped it up. Actually, I was figuring the ending to be a more gun to the head type of thing, but I thought this was a hell of a lot better.

On topic, in games I almost always try to make a fighter who uses long range most of the time, and up close when neccesary. So usually I end up playing with a bow and dagger.

WTB: Boxes for a silver Gamecube System(and a hyperport cover), and a box for an Ice Blue N64 console. Will pay 7.50 for each and shipping.

Oddly enough, I think the saddest scene of the Wrestler for me was:

SPOILERS

















Seeing his daughter completely reject him and tell him she never wants to see him again

Anyone else have this problem?
Been there and have gone back to playing games instead. Might have something to do with less money to spend on games than i used to.

But the upside of that while i buy fewer games i spend more time playing each one besides of which i got plenty already :D

I've gotten the bad habit lately where I'll get to the final level in a game and just lose interest. I keep telling myself that I'll go back and beat it but as of now Ninja Gaiden (NES), Mega Man X2, and Viewtiful Joe are still taunting me.

Same here... i can't see a grenade next to a 9mm amunition!
Yep, same here -- my wife (well, fiance at the time) actually didn't mind watching me play RE4, found it interesting... but couldn't stand it how absolutely precision-perfect I had to arrange my items in the briefcase.

We should compare notes. :lol:

Haha, yup. I own about 300 games that I've never played.

I have the bad habit of trying to get everything. So I stop enjoying the main game, get bored and eventually quit.
Thanks everyone...

I tend to play girls in all RPGs that allow me to. Not sure why.
