    Wreck it Ralph is amazing. Its family friendly. Has a great message. Has characters from every era. Amazing voice acting.

    Im still crossing my fingers Microsoft announces some kind of windows 8 and xbox live integration.

    As for personalization preloading a game you might buy preloading itself incase you buy it. Thats not so good with a majority of ISPs in America. A lot of them have bandwidth caps which would be wasted if your console is downloading parts of games you arnt actually going to buy yet. I do like the idea though and hopefully ISPs will change soon as google roles out more fiber.

    As for the shooting children conversation. I enjoy freespeech and when people push taboo boundaries in a safe virtual environment.

    I can also agree though that rape and children murder should probably be rated AO which means it can not be sold in retail stores.
    If you dont like to see it in a game then dont buy or support that game and even speak out against it. But I dont think there should be any stopping to the game being developed or coming out other than being labeled AO and speaking with your dollars and voices.

    By cannot be sold in retail I mean retail stores will not sell AO games.

    I think the only Best Picture movie I've seen so far is Django Unchained. I know I'll eventually see the rest, but the historical inaccuracies in all the docudramas nominated really bother me. Even when it's minor stuff, it just frustrates me that they didn't get it right.

    Whoa. Alex and Anthony -- two guys I know as huge Metal Gear fans -- didn't play it on PSOne?

    Holy crap, my brother and I probably put 25 hours into the DEMO. That was a day 1 for me and like, everyone I knew in high school. So much of my upbringing built around that. Wow. Wow.

    Good thing you didn't let the inferior MG2 get you down! XD I don't know if I would have gone back to play the amazing MG1 if I had begun with MG2 or Twin Snakes.

    Yeah... I was afraid to admit it, but after Anthony came forward I figured I was in safe company.
