If you actually dig that comic, it might be worth checking out a voiced over and video-fied version at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JteqQR3L-nk , around the 6:25 mark. Very amusing stuff.
Almost off topic, but more likely than not the script for Call with the Wind probably weighed in at the most 250 pages. A 650 page script would roughly equate to an eleven hour run time as far as movies go.
So, over a thousand pages for a video game script? @_@
I guess my current favorite game would be Super Metroid, since I'm trying to get my mind off the fact that I have no means to play Bioshock at the moment. ;_;
I guess my favorite scene was the one where the King dude (the name was Leonidas, right?) was killing a bunch of other dudes in super slow motion while the camera's zooming in and out. Crazy stuff, a scene so cool I felt compelled enough to watch the flick in a theater twice.
But seriously, those are likely the Grado Reference Series 1 headphones. Probably not worth the seven hundred bucks, and that's before the headphone preamp that would make it difficult to carry around with your ipod.
