Don't have the money to buy my co-workers gifts, so I'm tossing one of these in everyone's mailbox:

Ugh, I have been having no end of troubles with my copy of Grandia 2 for the Dreamcast. The audio keeps cutting out during battle, and it almost always cuts out after battle. It's especially annoying during boss fights.

I don't think too highly of the series but are the Simpson writes so desperate for a gimmick those days?

If you are a big sports fan like myself, than Christmas Eve and Day are going to be jam packed with awesomeness!!!!

Christmas Eve= NFL All Day
Christmas Day = NBA All Day (which include Bulls @ Lakers plus Bears @ Packers on Sunday Night Football)

Can't wait to enjoy two straight days of sports with family and friends!

I would drop one of these in your mailbox afterwards:

Apparently people have made classic controller hacks for Donkey Kong country returns and kirby return to dreamland.

I'll have to try them out if I get either game. Gotta ditch those motion controls.

I've heard about the hack for DKC Returns, but I'm kinda surprised to see the hack out for Kirby this soon after its release.

I usually hate motion controls, but I didn't mind the use in those games. In New SMB Wii, the motion control "flick" to twirl in the air was kinda neat, and the only time you have to flick the remote in Kirby is to super suck. Not that big of deal, in my opinion. The rolling in DKC Returns was pretty annoying, though I kinda got use to it toward the end of the game. However, I wouldn't mind using the classic controller for that game. Mario and Kirby though, I'm fine with the remote.

So the hack for Kirby, I assume you still need the remote to play the mini games. I can't see how a classic controller would work for them.

Hmm. Well I'll probably use the remote for kirby then. There's a classic controller hack for the NSMBW too, which I do own. I don't use the hack though because of those platforms you control by tilting the remote.

I'm kinda thinking about maybe picking up Parasite Eve sometime. Normally I don't have the attention span for JRPGs, but I heard this one is actually rather short for an RPG. Sounds like something I could finish.

That's how I feel, over 20 seasons in and I feel they should go back to their old roots where they actually had little witty jokes that discussed real issues such as violence in television or when Mr. Burns running for governor. Make Homer human again working at the plant and make Barney his best friend again instead of Lenny & Carl.

Just me ranting but I hated it when Lenny & Carl took over Barney's role as best friend, it changed the relation with Homer as he was supposed to be a very unpopular guy amongst the spring field citizens and having that one friend just goes to show that somebody out there likes him, but now he's fairly popular amongst the people.

A lot happens to a man in 20 years.
