When the lottery was up the 600 million, if you won, what would you do with it? Pay for a good college education, purchase a house, calculate money needed for an entire life's worth of taxes, food, family, etc, keep the rest for spending/in case of emergency.

[Guild McCommunist]

Like Superhero movies? Yes
Watch any movies this summer? I saw the Avengers and Men in Black in theaters, planning to see DKR this Monday. Not in theaters I saw Rubber
If yes, which of those do you like most? The Avengers
If you could pick any animal physical characteristic(s),what would it be? Any animal you would want to be completely splice with? None because I'm not a goddamn furry
(I just watched that splice episode of Batman Beyond.)
Anyone you want to instant ban, but can't? A few choice members which I'll keep secret for now.

Avengers or Dark Knight Rises? Avengers baby
Are they even comparable? I think DKR will be solid but Avengers was an experience.
Any other movies you looking forward to? Nothing this year. There's the new Star Trek next year though.
GBATemp members you respect? (They can be non-active.) Um, there's a lot, too many to list honestly.
Know anyone from the Temp IRL? Gahars.
Are you winning your war on the USN? "War" isn't an appropriate word. "Genocide" or "crusade" fits better.
Funniest member? emigre
Vita or 3DS? Vita
Any members that got banned you'd like to see forgiven? Not particularly. Maybe Overlord Nadrian.
What defines a "True Gamer"? If you're me or not.

HEY SUP D :
Mount and Blade, yes or no? If yes, multi or single? I got the complete collection and so far yes. Frustrating but rewarding. I haven't tried multiplayer yet, haven't booted up Warband.
If you were forced to watch one of the following animu's, and had no escape available, not even death, which would you watch? :V: I'll answer this question by saying I have never heard of any of these.
1. Kara no Kyoukai, the Garden of Sinners
2. Fate Zero
3. Legend of the Legendary Heroes(Yes, that's an actual animu.)
4. Sword Art Online
5. Baccano!
6. Casshern Sins

If you have played strategy games, are there any you would like to recommend? I really don't like strategy games at all. Valkyria Chronicles II was the last one I found fun.
Dark Souls, y/n? I haven't played it.
Assuming you have Skyrim on the PC, any mods you use? If you don't have it on the PC, do you see yourself getting it someday due to the massive amounts of awesome mods and stuff? I only play it on the Xbox. But I really don't want too many mods honestly, I kinda like vanilla games.
After having playing all the Mass Effect games, what science fiction or just games with good stories would you recommend? Well you already said Mass Effect. Otherwise the Star Trek series is a favorite, Dragon Age Origins has a good story as well.
Which country's cuisine do you like the best? Probably my own I guess? I mean I don't really eat much foreign food.
Have you ever tried, or will ever try Indian food, vegetarian or otherwise? I've eaten vegetarian Indian food and it's alright.
Which soft drink do you prefer? Or if you don't like soft drinks, then any other drink? I like my Dr. Pepper but I've been staying away from soda a bit more recently. Other than soft drinks I prefer iced tea, lemonade, or the nectar of the gods (aka Arnold Palmers)
ALSO HOW BAD OF A WEEB AM I D : Pretty bad.

australia a radioactive hell?

 

[Guild McCommunist]

Why don't you have a PS3? Well a couple years ago I had around $200-something in my possession from work and I realized I needed a HD console. The Wii wasn't cutting it and was honestly pretty dull so it was between a Xbox 360 and a PS3. I really wanted the PS3, it just seemed common sense. Better exclusives, free online, and it's a Bluray player? I mean c'mon man! But I realized all my friends owned Xbox 360's and that I could get a Xbox 360 for about $100 and spend the rest on, well, everything else (a hard drive, Xbox Live subscription, games) instead of blowing it on a PS3 and buy pretty much nothing with it. So I chose the Xbox 360. I don't regret it though, I love the console, but I'd still like a PS3 in the future.

Do you have a Vita? Yes
If so, what do you think of it so far? It's a lovely console. Very well designed and admittedly it's slow at gaining traction but I like the games for it and the quality of everything feels very top notch.
Have you played Gravity Rush? I played the demo.
Have you ever considered buying a 3DS? Yeah, multiple times. Not necessarily for the games, but my current DS is still an old fat one and I've been in need of an upgrade. Seeing as a 3DS is only like $10 above a regular DSi or something, it seems pretty common sense to just buy that instead of a new DS.
What is your opinion of the Uncharted series? I've only played Golden Abyss so I can't give a thorough opinion on it honestly.
Do you like Dragon Ball/Z/GT? Pfffft. Dragon Ball is kinda shit.
Why do you get mad if people don't support Sony? I don't get mad if they don't support Sony, I get mad when they're retards who bash them only because they're Sony.

I'll ask more later, if they can think of questions.

australia a radioactive hell? Saxton Hale.

 

[weavile001]

are you crazy to buy a 170 milion dollars DLC?
do you know what a fusca is?

 

[Mazor]

Why do you get mad when people bash Sony only because it's Sony when you are yourself at a point where you bash anything from Japan just because it's from Japan? (I actually have my own answer to this, that this forum needs some anti-weeaboo to cancel out some of the excess wapanese, but I'd like to hear your own.)

 

[Devin]

Do you remember me?
Favorite Vita game?
3DS game? (If any, or if you haven't played one. One that looks alright?)
Think the WiiU is going to bomb, or rise up?
Any upcoming Xbox 360 titles you're looking forward to?
How's it going?

That about does it, Thanks.

 

[Guild McCommunist]

Why do you get mad when people bash Sony only because it's Sony when you are yourself at a point where you bash anything from Japan just because it's from Japan? (I actually have my own answer to this, that this forum needs some anti-weeaboo to cancel out some of the excess wapanese, but I'd like to hear your own.) Well I don't mind if you get mad at Sony when they're in the wrong. A perfect example was the downtime. It was a fumble on their part. They did their best to reconcile it with some free games and crap but it was still a big issue. I don't bash anything from Japan for being Japanese, I bash mostly some of their dumb obsessions for being dumb. Like their obsession with "lolis". When I call it "child pornography" or when I give a thumbs up to the governments who ban explicit mangas, I get called some type of ethnocentric xenophobe simply because I find it not only unappealing, but downright appalling to stand behind anything that depicts a sexual act with children, whether they're fictional or just adults pretending to be children. I'm not saying this to start a conflict on the issue, it was simply an example. I find a few things that are typical of their games and anime to be a bit silly too, but mostly it's the fanbases I hate.

Do you remember me? Of course
Favorite Vita game? I haven't played many due to finances but I'd have to go with Dynasty Warriors Next so far. Very faithful rendition of Dynasty Warriors on a handheld. The PSP games usually took shortcuts or suffered from issues like low enemy counts or terrible fog, here it feels like Dynasty Warriors should. And it's got go.
3DS game? (If any, or if you haven't played one. One that looks alright?) I haven't had a chance to play any but Super Mario 3D Land looked kinda interesting (not $40 and a system interesting but if it ever comes down to $20 I'd consider it) and there's some others that don't come to mind.
Think the WiiU is going to bomb, or rise up? It won't bomb, Nintendo nowadays doesn't bomb. It's not a Virtual Boy. This thing is still really a mystery to me in terms of financial predictions. I don't know if the other platform holders (like myself, a Xbox 360 user) will flock to it compared to their current gen consoles and if casual, family gamers will deem a transfer from their Wii necessary. Right now though I notice a lot of families who bought Wii's either never use them, use them on rare occasion (like for parties), or use them for Netflix. None of these requires a new console. Plus it's still not tablet enough to compete with a tablet and next gen enough to compete with next gen consoles. Personally, it's at an uncomfortable middle ground.
Any upcoming Xbox 360 titles you're looking forward to? Metal Gear Rising looks like a boatload of fun, I'd love Anarchy Reigns whenever it reaches the States (if not I'll have to sell an arm and a leg for an import). Otherwise I really don't notice a title I want until I read it in the upcoming releases or a couple months after it comes out.
How's it going? I've been better.

That about does it, Thanks.

[exangel]

How did you celebrate your graduation?
What's your favorite KMFDM album?
Why did you cut your Lennon-esque hair?

What is your favorite:
Animated film (Japanese)
Animated film (Other)
Foreign film? (Non-animated)
Film series (trilogies, etc)
Single film
TV Series (Live action, scripted or not)
TV Series (Other -- animated)

What do you think of Fox News?

What is your favorite fictional character from a book (whether or not it was adapted to a film, I don't mind)?

Sorry if I repeated someone else's questions but I don't think I did see questions about your favorite movies/TV asked.

edit:

If I recommended a film to you, would you get it soon or backlog it?

Would you be interested in buying a used 3DS with SM3DL after I get a 3DS XL in August? (Will be posting to WTS forum)

What do you think of salt & pepper hair?

Would you name 3 XBOX 360 games (that don't have PC counterparts) do you think I should have, based on what little you know of me? (I currently only have Just Dance 3, Deepak Chopra's Leela, Catherine, and Phantasy Star Universe and a few XBL Arcade games).

 

[Gundam Eclipse]

How do you feel about the Shin Megami Tensei series? Depending on the games you have played from em so far. Would you say its the same as other JRPG series, or would you say its better/worse than others?
When would you say would be a good time to get a PS Vita? Should one wait some more to see what games are coming, or get one right away?
How has your experience of playing PSP games on a Vita been like? Is it better, worse? Can both analogs be utilized in the games?

 

[Guild McCommunist]

How's life treating you? Alright I guess. Just a lot happening. Getting a driver's license, going to college, just a big transition period
Recall seeing me around a few centuries ago? Not really, sorry
Any new games you are looking forward to? Not coming up recently honestly. Most of it is either 2013 or TBD.
How often do you play video games in a week? Depends on the video games I'm playing. Some weeks I'll play maybe an hour or two, other times I'll clock at least 5 hours a day.
What do you think of the game Skyrim? I really enjoy it. It's rough around the edges and it's a bit more quantity than quality but it's a fun time sink.
What kind of TV shows do you like to watch? Comedy and drama stuff. The only shows I try to follow on a weekly basis (when they're around) are Dexter, The Walking Dead, Community, and Tosh.0.
Do you have any pets or siblings? I have two dogs (Sadie and Doreanne), one cat (Lizzy), and a brother (he's 21).
What character or person do you think you could do the best impression of? I dunno, I used to be able to do a good impression of someone but I forget now.

How did you celebrate your graduation? I actually didn't sadly. I was pretty sick during graduation so after I graduated I declined going to dinner with friends and went home. I mean I've hung out with friends after it but nothing graduation-esque and really nothing big with family. My friend is having a little graduation party in early August though.
What's your favorite KMFDM album? I don't listen to them as much as I should but I'd go with Angst.
Why did you cut your Lennon-esque hair? It was kinda in the way and I felt like I needed a change. Just kinda a "beginning of a new era" type thing. Plus I wanted to surprise all my schoolmates before they left.

What is your favorite:
Animated film (Japanese): I really haven't watched any.
Animated film (Other) Probably the Incredibles, I don't watch many animated films.
Foreign film? (Non-animated) 13 Assassins was really good.
Film series (trilogies, etc) James Bond flicks
Single film From Russia with Love
TV Series (Live action, scripted or not) Currently it's The Walking Dead
TV Series (Other -- animated) The Avatar series (Last Airbender and Legend of Korra) are really good

What do you think of Fox News? The Big Three 24/7 news networks are generally just mockeries of journalism but I'd say they're the worst.

What is your favorite fictional character from a book (whether or not it was adapted to a film, I don't mind)? That's a toughie. I really don't know. Generally I don't pick favorites for characters, I either enjoy them all or most of them.

Sorry if I repeated someone else's questions but I don't think I did see questions about your favorite movies/TV asked.

edit:

If I recommended a film to you, would you get it soon or backlog it? I'd try, generally I only watch movies on Netflix though.

Would you be interested in buying a used 3DS with SM3DL after I get a 3DS XL in August? (Will be posting to WTS forum) Possibly, but my funds aren't exactly flowing and there's a lot I want to buy (mainly some more Vita games and more Magic cards for college).

What do you think of salt & pepper hair? What exactly is salt and pepper hair?

Would you name 3 XBOX 360 games (that don't have PC counterparts) do you think I should have, based on what little you know of me? (I currently only have Just Dance 3, Deepak Chopra's Leela, Catherine, and Phantasy Star Universe and a few XBL Arcade games). Perfect Dark on the XBLA is a really great game. There's also Red Dead Redemption (only console exclusive), Dragon's Dogma (picked it up recently and I really liked it), Lost Odyssey (if you want a turn based JRPG type of thing), FFXIII (same as the last one, I kinda got bored of it though), Nier (it's pretty good), and Vanquish.

[Guild McCommunist]

How do you feel about the Shin Megami Tensei series? Depending on the games you have played from em so far. Would you say its the same as other JRPG series, or would you say its better/worse than others? Only one I played a bit of was Persona 3 and it's not as bad as the others, but it still has a lot of stuff that's fucking stupid. Like I'm trying to get some social link bullshit with this one dude whose talking about some girl he really likes. I'm like "okay, typical high school stuff, I guess that's fine". Then he's like "NO IT'S A TEACHER I WANT TO ASK HER OUT". Well that was fucking stupid. For being set in Japan with characters who end each others' names with "san" and "senpai", it's not as weaboo as I thought.
When would you say would be a good time to get a PS Vita? Should one wait some more to see what games are coming, or get one right away? I think it's fine as it is currently. It had a strong launch and is still getting a couple quality titles per month. Plus even if you find it short on games, you can still use it for web browsing, Youtube, Netflix, almost like a tablet.
How has your experience of playing PSP games on a Vita been like? Is it better, worse? Can both analogs be utilized in the games? You can map either the face buttons, D-Pad, or the other analog stick to the second analog, so yeah it works. They look pretty decent on a larger screen, but they still look like PSP games. I'd say they're fine though if you wanted to get a few.
