Many people on these Boards could use some; however, most aren't dangerous (unless you try to take away their copy of SEIV, or have a Beta copy of Starfury and won't let them play it).

I sense some hostility.... but I agree.

"Falling Down" is one of the best movies ever. On an marginally related note, have you noticed how much it follows an RPG or Survival Horror formula.
  • The player character is clearly separated and alienated
  • He has a clear goal toward which he works
  • He receives weapons, and gear, of escalating power from opponents of escalating threat
  • He regularly repeats a simple action (to save game, call wife)
  • Nice closing plot twist
Hmm... maybe the similarity is not as strong as I thought.

Sounds like an excellent plot for Terminator 4. I'd pay to see that.

Depends on the RPG.

I can't think of anything funny to say but I do think that Slynky and the gang should continue the strategy of "Let the Wookie Win"

Falling down was an excellent movie.

T4's plot has already been laid out. The machines have taken over, and begin to build the Matryx...

yes, Falling Down is a classic.
Can never work out why it is on the $9.99 list most of the time at Best Buy etc.
