Mega Thread The Random Thoughts Thread Part 1

The Tales of series is still pretty damn good.

I really want to play Ni no kuni, but I want to finish at least a couple of the games I already have before buying another one T_T

Yep was going to mention Tales of but the only one i've played was Tales of Symphonia on GC but really enjoyed that, they're re-releasing that one too early this year & i'll be picking that up.

I'm kinda surprised so many people traded in their PS3's for PS4's when there are still good games that were in development releasing for it this year.

Another JRPG series I liked was the Grandia series on PS1/2 & PC, the gameplay & story plots in Grandia 2 & 3 were ahead of it's time.

Dark Cloud was another I really enjoyed, it was the closest thing to a Playstation Zelda/City building game. Going further back I was disappointed they never made another Legend of Dragoon.

I played Demon's Souls, then Dark Souls. Everything else in comparison is weak as piss.

"We ate for Australia but we will take the weight we need to lose out of the sled," said Pittman, a former 400m hurdle world champion who is making her debut as a winter Olympian in Sochi.

Radjenovic said they had probably over-indulged on Olympic food.

"We managed to eat maybe a little bit too much over the past few days and didn't realise we had gone that heavy," she said.

So off the back of Torah Bright admitting she hadn't trained for weeks for her most important event we get this further example of underwhelming professionalism. Is the taxpayer seriously funding these athletes?

Jana ****ing Pittman.

I can't say it without getting carded.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Pittman is a parasite.

 

[Stromageddon]

I stay up very late some nights (10PM) to support our athletes and then they pull this shit on us?

 

[bomberclifford]

They should send Scott Miller over there.
He goes alright on the ice.

 

[finbarr]

I actually get a perverse enjoyment out of seeing our athletes being built up by the public and then failing miserably. More of it I say.

That was the highlight of the games. Bet he wasn't so "stoked" about that result.

 

[Trewth]

Olympics? All I see is an international ice hockey tournament

This is me every time the soccer World Cup rolls around.

 

[Jumbo]

[finbarr]

I will always cheer for "our" Anna Meares though. She is simply too adorable not to barrack for.

 

[manureid]

I am not sure I have any interest in one sport* that is on at the Winter Olympics.


*Not sure all of them are actual sports

 

[Jumbo]

If they had a wet t-shirt section for the girls in the snow I reckon it would be a fiercely fought contest (for front row seats).

 

[DonDynamite]

There's only so many double full full half quadruple full quadruple ski flips I can watch before it gets boring.

 

[70sDinosaur]

I don't consider any event that includes stuff like "style points" or "artistic impression" in the scoring to be a real sport.
