I agree, his dad seems more of a nerd than he does. But still, pretty sweet bedroom.
My childhood seems pretty ok when compared to his: I had an Amiga 500 and a dad who copied ALL the games for me :)

Everybody's got a Gauss Gun.
So many fond memories ...

One time machine, please!

I'll have to tip my hat to Capcom for, on one hand making this world a better place by announcing a PC version of SF4; but on the other hand they manage to disappoint by not announcing an RE5 PC version.
But whatever, everybody's got a console nowadays, I might as well jump on the wagon ;)

Final Fantasy 6.
They just have to do it in order to release the FF7 remake in 2010.

Gyahaha!

Awesome.
Awesome to the max.

Well now that is not entirely true. You and a friend should get Contra 4. It's Wifi Co-Op awesomeness.

Although taken in account that DS screens never look as good as the actual game, I'll have to agree that them screens indeed look crude. Not better than Resident Evil DS, imo.

"We wonder: will Rockstar be able to better this?"

Hell yeah they'll be. At least they sound pretty optimistic in their mailings:

"This will be unlike anything you have seen on the DS before – trust!"

I won't trust them, they're game developers. But my fingers are crossed.

Lol, that's funny, but in a way it's not a noobish behaviour because she tried to use knowledge she already had.

One of my buddies got himself a PSP a few months back, together with Final Fantasy Tactics.
His girlfriend tries to help him by unwrapping all the merchandise. Then she gets her hands on the FFT
UMD itself.
Trying to pry the UMD's plastic shelling open with the aid of her fingernails, she goes:

"How do I get that tiny disc out of the $#!7 case?!"

People who think that the upper screen will magically develop touch-screen capabilities although they were told a couple of times NOT to mess around with the stylus and the top screen.
IMO, that happens all the time.
Kind of annoying, but the frustrated look on people's faces (the one trying to play, as well as the owner of the precious device) is priceless :D
