| Anyone else seen it? Anyone else here a fan? What did you think? Fave song? Fave character? This has got to be the best movie ever. EVER. Love it, own it on both DVD and Blu-ray. I really can't say that I don't like anything about it. It's a perfect rock opera to me, even more so than Rocky Horror,... |

| I play on PS3 and have a Madcatz SFIV TE Rd 2 arcade stick to play with. For Vanilla I mained Sagat and Chun-Li. For Super my new main is Juri, but I still throw down with Chun a bit. I am really loving all the changes they made with Super. Every character is viable now, in my opinion. I also love w... |

| I love the bard. I've been reading his works repeatedly ever since elementary school. Never really had a problem understanding him, even at a young age. And we agree, his puns and double meanings and cross-references are truly enjoyable to me. |

I've been rewatching all of them as well. The Nightmare series is an absolute horror classic for me  Keep up the good fanfic work, always loved reading and writing them. |

| I consider myself a realist. Both pessimism and optimism can be a bad thing depending on the situation. So I try to stay grounded. |

| I guess it may depend on your system, I've gotten better performance, but then again, when I changed hard drives I obviously changed all the software on it as well. But the point still stands that it's seldom going to make a difference unless it's an RPM change. |

| It will be a nice increase over a SATA drive and nothing to turn down for free. But I doubt that you'll see a huge change. Hard drive is seldom the choke point for any system. RAM, GPU, Processor, those are the choke points 90% of the time. That being said though, you would see quite a difference if... |

| I hope success greets them. Beruit has a troubled history, especially recent history. And while I really want all governments to be secular, it breaks my heart and horrifies me at some of the violent results of trying to gain freedoms that you should have had in the first place. |

| Emotionally I am very young and rather naive, so easily around 16. I love hard, trust when I shouldn't, and find cynicism distasteful. Mentally however I am much older than my age, most people who know me would say 50 or so. Both because of all that I have experienced in life and the capacity to ret... |

| It doesn't make me less lonely, but it does provide a bit more understanding. With understanding has come a little more power and control over myself, even beyond what I had to learn just to survive. So, it hasn't been a bad thing. |

| I listen to this type of music more than anything, to be honest. Especially because I have it in the background while I read. To your list I would add Enigma, Delerium, and any movie soundtrack done by Clint Mansell (especially The Fountain and Moon). |

It has quite a large OD/Fatality rate. So be very careful, please. Your Aspie issues are not worth dying over to change. I'd rather you... |

They will grow out of it although the individual selfishness will possibly stay due to the nature of their personalities. For now you just have to set limits and abide by them,... |

| I love RPGs, always have since the genre was invented on the computer and home console. But story driven RPGs are my favorite. Good examples being Final Fantasy VI, Chrono Trigger, Dragon Quest VIII, and Vagrant Story. |
