All Your Base? It got funny again!

- Our coral is hosed
- It's not easy being green
- Surprise, big companies want more power
- Zune is hot! Honest!
- Sports dont change with tech except for those new goofy basketballs

Lastly, quite a fuss is being made about iPod cracking lately by the guy who cracked DVDs. Fun?

      I thought there was only one colossus. Welp, the game's ruined for me now.
      
      Also, in the trailer, a dude was riding a horse.

        The fashion, the hair, and the face all made me think that Tidus was a butch lesbo with the voice of a chain smoker.

        You shouldn't reveal that many details about the game, dude. After all, It's better to play a game without knowing ANYTHING about it beforehand except the title, and even that is a bit much.

  I've got two left to go. Some of the more recent ones haven't been nearly as fun as the earlier ones (the fifth is probably my favorite so far. closely followed by the third and seventh) and the control/camera problems are only getting more annoying as the battles stretch out longer and longer :(
  
  The ninth colossus was a total pain in the ass :( Once I got the hint and I figured out what to do, I still had trouble doing it (lining everything up while getting assraped by snot shots was hard :( ) and even then it took me forever to figure out where to go from there (which of course ment redoing the previous part over and over and over until I finally figured it out) :(
  
  Hah, before I got the hint, I noticed that his feet would sometimes be slightly exposed while circling around, so I kept running around under him in the cave and trying to perfectly time my shots to hit him under his feet when he'd shuffle. I actually hit a few times, too :D Then that damn voice told me to use the earth or some such to shake him and then I was like, "ohh....OHHHHH YEA"

    Fifth meaning the bird?
    
    Third was the big guy on the platform in the middle of the lake, right? And then the seventh one was the big one with the beard in the basement?.
    
    I liked number 8. The lizard-like guy that ran around on the walls and sprayed gas at you.
