He is a --terrible-- actor. One of the worst.

Finding the Morph Ball in the very first Metroid. Five seconds in, I know, but it just blew me away that I found an item and now my character could do something he (I thought) couldn't do before. Revolutionary.

The first one. What a great game. Groundbreaking. Incerdible. No one could have expected or demanded it to be THAT awesome. But it was.

You're definitely not the only one, N.D. I read thourgh the entire thread of comments hoping to one like yours, one that expressed the same feeling I had of "Hmm, someone did a full Metroid reskin of some childish Michael Bay style "I'M SO BADASSSSS" game.

Kung Fu movies are super, super awesome. But they are not Metroid games.

I really hope people are right, that this is just a trailer and they were trying to win over weird, twitchy, muscle-bound (in their imaginations) gamers. That there are actual Metroid-y parts, in equal measure to this testosto-fest, in the actual game.

I really, really hope.

But I can't say I'm optimistic.

Acworth, GA, of all places. Staying at my father-in-law's, of all places.

But 6 days of literally jack s*** needing to be done, super hot weather with a pool 3 blocks away, and my kid, getting to really swim for the first time without me freaking out about waves and undertows. And I ate ribs 3 times in 6 days. And fried pickles. Come. On.

The. Best.

Boston - More Than A Feeling. And that's out of an incredibly stacked field. But come on! Boston themselves sold their sould to the devil just so they could have a career -- all just for an excuse to get to play this song over and over again thoughout their lives. It's the funenst, most baddest-ass song in town!

YEAH!

The idea of playing this song is getting me excited about Guitar Hero in a a way I haven't been since.. well, since before I had ever played it. Woo hoo!

Popcorn made in a pot on the stove, with butter melted in the same pot after the popcorn's been removed to a big bowl, preferably of brown plastic.

Animal from the Muppet Movie. He can become church-smashingly huge when necessary, and is full of unbridled power, rage, and id!
The perfect robot racer!

Yay, Animal!

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm pretty much a complete noob when it comes to camera stuff. My wife loves to take pictures, though. So much so that she literally wore out her first point and shoot camera, and the Kodak Z712 I bought for her less than two years ago is starting to act up as well. To compound the matter, we are expecting our first born sometime next year. I fear the Kodak just isn't going to cut it any longer. What would be the best starter DSLR to get? She hates missing photo opportunities due to camera 'lag' so speed would definitely be at the top of the list. Photo quality and features would be next. Price should be no more than $800. I'm not interested in video capabilities."
