I haven't played a game in many months. I guess I'm old. I don't know. I still love them, though, for some reason. I was an old fuck who had not played games in a long time when Zelda: Wind Waker came out and I spent two weeks in a complete zombie-mode enjoying the genius until I finished it. I get those type of games every once and a while. The types that make me remember how it felt to be a kid first experiencing Metroid.
So here's the thread. If you had to recommend one game to somebody to help rekindle the feeling only a brilliant game can provide, what would it be?

The bottom has some of what the team thinks. This F'n kills me you win and lose as a team. One player does NOT ruin it. His tackle and then the missed kick finished it but its not sololy them losing it for the team.

Ok, so now they've made contact with the jungle pirates who are not actually the fucking others if we beleive what Michael and Mr. Ecko saw in the jungle when hid and they walked right by. I'm fucking sure they're just making this shit up out of the blue... It's ironic, after wanting to know so desperately all these mysteries of the island for almost two seasons, we get to the security system and the fucking jungle pirates in the span of two episodes, and both were extremely underwhelming.
At least 24 still rocks.

When compiling something from source. In general, where can some information on the configure options be found? I'm trying to compile subversion on a shared web server at work, and want to tell it to put the binaries in my account directory, since it's not on the server, and the admins won't put it there for me :| thanks!

The fact is, anyone paying for cable TV is wasting thier money at this point. All they want to do is shove ads DURING the show instead of allowing you to enjoy watching actual content. I'm never buying cable tv anymore. It's become like a pop-up ad all over the place with no way to control it. iTunes + DVD for teh win. I know sports is popular but eventually the NFL & MLB will join the NBA and release em on the net as well. Just a matter of time. However TV will always be around for the impatient bastards who have to see it the very first airing. I work 4pm to midnight so I don't have an opportunity to watch it the way you guys do. After a few years of it I gave up recording my favorite shows and just dl'ed it or waited for DVD release like I did with 24. Now I got some nice legal options for once and plan on supporting it. I'm happy. :)
