Gendo isn't #1 Then who…? Topless Robot – The 10 Worst Parents in Anime http://bit.ly/9lKsWM #
Weird, this Twitter app is only showing tweets from the last 25 minutes.Is this because of that "push" thing that came in the latest update? #
@Protodude Officially? Does that mean they admit to it? in reply to Protodude #
I think the "truth in advertising" people finally got to @JoeyStyles. At least now I guess I don't need to worry about watching tomorrow. #
@JoeyStyles Were there any good bits from Cole or anyone I should look for on YouTube tomorrow? in reply to JoeyStyles #
Well, I just passed out. A quick after-dinner nap became a full night of sleep. On the upside: I feel great, better than I have in days. #
The downside: I need to go out tonight, which means I'll need a nap before then if I want to have the energy. I hate sleeping under pressure #
@mainfinger Yeah, that fight was grating, especially by the end. in reply to mainfinger #
People say SuperMario 2 isn't a "real" Mario game. Well, it's clearly real enough for Nintendo to keep using the music: http://bit.ly/clkzfB #
@WWE It's par for the show at this point. in reply to WWE #
@RealGallows Funny… I was just wondering to myself earlier where you had been. in reply to RealGallows #
@MATTHARDYBRAND That was cool, but I think @JEFFHARDYBRAND calling himself "The Anti-Christ of professional wrestling" was a little much. in reply to MATTHARDYBRAND #
@WWE Not a very detailed recap… what's all this divorce stuff about? in reply to WWE #
A pretty good look at the most-quoted Analyst in the video game biz – The Escapist : The Crystal Ball of Michael Pachter http://t.co/KrBwy2s #
From Topless Robot's contest yesterday: "Idea for torture: Forcing everybody who has ever cosplayed as Ichigo to sit in a room and watch… #
…nothing but Bleach filler. Bleach with nothing but filler could simply be called Blah. So, Blah torture." #
The article describing nerd tortures both real and imagined, for those interested: http://bit.ly/bXOxvA #
Reading this torture list… wow, some of the things parents and siblings do. #
For some reason, the DBZ card folder story really strikes a nerve. #
@geoffkeighley Does this mean we'll see more awards actually presented during the show? #
Nift, though I wish they still used real TFs RT @tfw2005 Optimus Prime and Megatron McDonald's HappyMeal Toys Revealed http://bit.ly/97R6Nc #
Ooh, looks like Pac-Man Championship Edition DX is on the XBL Marketplace. Time to go download the demo. #
@Roto13 I had to check to see which one was "Paul." That said, I agree wholeheartedly. Never doing that to my kids. in reply to Roto13 #
Funny to see a certain individual talking about someone stealing from other websites… #
Wii HD: Is It Too Late for Nintendo High-Definition Gaming | Game Industry News, Interviews and Vi.. http://bit.ly/9QP97T #
UbiSoft Still Believes in Nintendo's Wii: Do You? | Game Industry News, Interviews and Videos | Ga.. http://bit.ly/dbjMDc #
Huh. Now when I save files, they're listed in alphabetical order again. I'll never understand why Windows does this. #
Absurd. Ridiculous. I can understand gun safety and all, but what's next? Caps on the barrels of GIJoe accessories? http://bit.ly/b7F5xw #
Maybe they should have the caps on guns which appear in games, TV, and movies, too. So no one shoots the screen. #
Game of the Year nominees… wow. I don't recall this year being that bad. Or at least this "meh." #
Still need to play Red Dead Redemption, for the record. #
And no love for Sonic & @SEGA All-Stars Racing? That's a quality racing game there. #
Or New Super Mario Bros. Wii? Wait, that was on last year's. Which is kind of funny, since it had been out less than a month at that point. #
@LanceHeart Out who what is? in reply to LanceHeart #
@JoeyDavidson Maybe I'll get lucky and get it for Christmas. And get lucky and like it, since GTA never took off with me. in reply to JoeyDavidson #
Well, that explains most of it RT @JimSterling I should have added: Go to Metacritic and ignore the Wii sections and anything downloadable. #
Tony Hawk has fallen, Guitar Hero seems sickly… other than Call of Duty, does Activitision have anything really big not named "WoW?" #
@Razorsaw I thought it did well, but not CoD/Guitar Hero/Tony Hawk well? in reply to Razorsaw #
@Razorsaw I don't think it's quite the household-name phenomenon those others are. But then, there's only been one so far. in reply to Razorsaw #
Wow, tackling a child over a stupid game… that guy should be jailed. I hate stupid sports fans. #
@Razorsaw Wait, we talking the VGA, or the new TonyHawk being a flop?The latter is what you responded to, so I thought that's what you meant in reply to Razorsaw #
@Razorsaw Yeah, Galaxy 2 should be a contender, among others. in reply to Razorsaw #
@Razorsaw Aha. I've yet to play it, but from what I've heard, it should be in there. in reply to Razorsaw #
@LanceHeart Point, though that's really still more on the "Blizzard" side, isn't it? in reply to LanceHeart #
From Allspark: "Whatever happened to the new Inspector Gadget cartoon?" Zodberg: 'Somebody said "Go Go Gadget Cancellation"' #
@LanceHeart 140 characters kind of sucks, else I would elaborate more. in reply to LanceHeart #
You know, I wish we were getting that version of the original Donkey Kong as a pre-order bonus instead of the banana pouch. #
Pouch is neat, I guess, but couldn't someone else do the game? I'm not even sure what I'd do with the pouch. #
@Roto13 Anything Activision contributed, though? Didn't Blizzard bring both of those to the marriage? in reply to Roto13 #
@MetManMas Then there would be blood. BLOOD. Gallons of the stuff! in reply to MetManMas #
@Roto13 It wasn't so much to count it, as much as I knew that was the first thing everyone would go for. in reply to Roto13 #
South Park Sued By Folks Behind 'What What (In The Butt)' – The Consumerist http://t.co/S5Bjkgs via @AddThis #
@Roto13 I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have. in reply to Roto13 #
@Roto13 Tweeted it, I mean. After the fact, maybe. in reply to Roto13 #
@NintendoAmerica …Donkey Kong 4? in reply to NintendoAmerica #
Prophetic: http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2009/11/18/ #
I want to win $50 from @McD_Canada and @alimartell: http://tinyurl.com/32usmhn #
@arda_ocal Wow, hard to say. Might depend on if The Miz goes to bat for him, you know? in reply to arda_ocal #
@arda_ocal And I don't mean in-story; I mean, since joining the roster, he's only really been enhancement for The Miz. in reply to arda_ocal #
@arda_ocal So would Miz think he's worth keeping around? Or any higher ups think he does enough to warrant the trouble? #
@EGMLogin Funny, I don't know anyone who thinks DKC2 sucked, as opposed to everyone. I like the first game best, myself. #
Yay, new Nintendo Power came today! Can't read it yet, though. Heading out soon to attend to a little MM (and other) business. #
