I ordered an ASUS A7N8X, the standard model, to replace it. It's a lot more capable and upgradable as far as memory and cpu speed, so it should be good. It's got a good onboard soundcard too, so I'll be able to ditch my SBLIVE.

However, this line killed me:
"While the main single-player portion isn't all that long (about five to six hours),"
Review goes on to talk about unlockable missions & a single player VS. mode, but jeez, 5 to 6 hours for the main campaign and the game still gets a high score? Maybe its just me, but that's awfully short for a game to get such a great review.
Just my opinion, YMMV.

1) My freaking shoelace broke this morning while getting ready for work (while I was already running late).
2) My checking account is somehow overdrawn $517.69 in the past 24 hours and I have NO idea who/what caused this.
3) My mom calls last night and tells me that my grandmother slipped and fell, breaking her ankle.
I'm just waiting for my car to break down and require ~$800 of repairs (money which I don't have since I have a negative account balance!!).

Remember that scene when there is that little bomb thing that is supposed to be really bad? Then when it goes off, they just "take cover" and live? Even though the guy says "Don't breathe for 30 seconds after the blast!" and then he breathes/talks right after the blast and is fine?
Yeah.

the lowest class of enemies are the bugs
the dragonfly http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00003.jpg
a ground crawler/face hugger style guy
http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00018.jpg
then there are the bigger monsters
like these guys which can whack you with their stick http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00009.jpg
or shoot you with their ranged attack ( projectiles that are like the primary fire of the link cannon.)

http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00012.jpg
a step up from them are these guys, they shoot rockets at you are a fairly tough dudes. http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00019.jpg
these guys are pretty tough too http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00053.jpg
http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00052.jpg
some of the monsters can be incapacitated if you blow their legs off, like this poor guy here http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00041.jpg
also the monsters will often fight eachother. here is one of those butterfly looking bugs duking it out with another monster http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00014.jpg http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00015.jpg
the winner gets a shock rifle in the face!
http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00016.jpg
and here is a rocket guy that just whailed on one of those cacodemon looking guys
http://www.shackspace.com/~turd_ferguson@shackmail.com/Invasion/Shot00048.jpg
the face hugger style guys are good to leave alive as they can often do a fair amount of damage to the other monsters.
