Venice is a district in west Los Angeles, California, United States .....
When it was proposed to be annexed to Los Angeles, the board of Trustees voted to hold an election. Those for annexation and those against were nearly evenly matched, but many Los Angeles residents, who moved to Venice to vote, turned the tide. Venice became part of Los Angeles in October 1925

I got this and don't play it at all.
Would be willing to trade it for Wario Ware: Smooth moves or just propose any wii games or ps2 games you would want to trade..
Played it 3 times, everything is still in as new condition.

I’m up against a "Hobo with a Shotgun!" I guess I lose by default, its a really great video though. But I’ am not even sure Jack Bauer could realistically even have a chance against not only a hobo, but one whom processes a shotgun...unless Chaney was backing him up. Then it would be about even.
And in case you guys missed it yesterday I now have an HD version of the video up on bit torrent if anybody's interested(tested on 360 /w TVersity).

I'm finding myself pleasantly surprised at finding an HD, next-gen, yet somewhat old school Japanese RPG on the ole Xbox.
It's also a shame to see bad reviews for it by people who don't like the genre rather than this game's execution of it. There are good ones too, though, and I saw there was even a Penny Arcade about it. (with accompanying column)

so my friend and I got in this discussion of MMOs and why I don't like WoW (I dont like it cause its "too easy" for my tastes and I dont like the game)
anyway he is constantly trying to get me to play it and of course I tell him why I dont want to and this leads into what I want to know from you guys
Whats the "hardest" MMO out there? He seems to think WoW is a "Hard" game and is complex and blah blah blah and takes offense to me saying that WoW is a casual gamers dream (compared to every other mmo out there WoW is a "casual game")
So WoW has been out what 2-3 years? I bring up EQ1 was harder, FFonline IS harder (i like this game, i know a lot of you guys have hate for it) I say DAOC was slightly more challenging, I'm guessing UO is harder but I've never played it. Also with the 4days of playing Vanguard I say its harder as well
help me shack with your opinions oh shi...what did I ask for

I drove 17 hours round trip to pick that little guy up yesterday. Driving through snow covered mountains of West Virginia at night is not something I recommend. Still not sure what to name him, but leaning towards Dante.

wtf. the best thing ive found yet is to basically organize it by hand and just browse through explorer. Why cant someone make a program thats similar to that but with more options and features? also vista gayed up the folder.jpg preview now so now its all stupid looking. XBMC does a pretty good job of it (its pretty similar to just browsing in organized folders in explorer) but thats not exactly a windows app :(
man if i had more than basic programming knowledge i would make the best app for this ever :(

I've got a gift certificate to Amazon to burn, so it's time to replace my ancient MS Explorer 3.0. Here's what I've found:
-Logitech MX518 ($40)
-MS/Razer Habu ($50)
-Razer Copperhead ($50)
In a mouse, I like light weight, very slippery feet, a small body, and I'm sure any of these will be more than precise enough for me, since I'm not a hardcore player anymore. What do you think?

2) Car question that hopefully someone can answer: When I use my brakes (maybe 1/3 of the time), there is this faint whistle coming from the front brakes. It continues even when the car is stopped for a while and then dies away if I pump the brake once or twice or wait for maybe 5-10 seconds. It's really annoying me. Anyone have any idea what this could be?

Although last night I went and stayed the night at another girls house, so that worked out nice.
But coming back to the empty apartment, that was depressing.

Steel Battalion (Both reg and LoC), dead rising, chrome hounds, lost planet, those are just a few of the major dissapointments I have found in the last couple of years.
The only games that haven't been disappointing to me have been SotC, Okami, LoZ:tp, and NG:B. However, two of those are the equivalent of art house movies, and LoZ is one of the most antisipated nintendo games in many years. Hell I am tecmo fanboy, and was looking forward to DOAX2, but once again found nothing but disappointment(I liked the first one). Hell in that game they have the gall to charge people real money to unlock the freaking swimsuits. Once gain I find it a depressing game design philosphy that they would stoop to that.
My point is take a look at the MP in lost planet. It is a complete abomination of netcode and game design. Its fun as hell when it works, but that happens to be very rarely. You can't see other players pings, you can't tell where they are from, half the time there are 3-4 players in the game that simply DONT exist to you. For christs sakes sometimes you are playing PARRALEL games with other people. Its surreal and quite depressing. Then add in the frustrating knockdowns, serious inbalance of weapons given the rarity of the better weapons, and I really wonder who the hell is makign these things anymore.

ok, so before in XP if you had a folder set to show icons, and there was a file called folder.jpg in that folder, it would show that as the icon.
Now in Vista it does the same thing, but it puts it in this ghey "folder" thing:
http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/9228/image2ag5.jpg
is there any way to disable that and make it work like before, where it just shows a thumbnail of folder.jpg instead?

Caramelized an onion (sort of, the onion was still somewhat crispy), then tossed in some beaten eggs to make an omelette/scramble. I added some japanese bonito flakes and chowed down. Not so great... I thought it was going to be a bit like "japanese pizza" (because of the bonito flakes), which is damn good:

My one PC is having a hell of a time lately running WoW @ full graphics. I dunno why, I mean, I guess my PC is kind of old... but what do you guys think.
Athlon x2 4400+
2 GB of DDR Memory (Cl2)
GeForce 7900 GT.
This PC runs a 42" Westinghouse 1080p Plasma (1920x1080). When I set WoW to the max, stuff starts crawling in a lot of areas, especially after minimizing...
Is it just WoW? If I turn it down to 1x Sample at that resolution it gets a bit better.
