I wasnt calling you lazy as a person, I was saying that should enjoy your ability to be lazy while it lasts. You only get to be a kid for like 20 years. The other 50-70 is working and failing health. No need to rush into it.

I just feel like you have the tendency to talk down to me often, but I'll apologize for misreading your comment.
 
Well the sucky thing about reading another person's text is you cannot get the feeling behind what they are trying to say. Talking in person you get tones of voice and facial expressions.
 
I don't see myself going to bed tonight, I'll probably post around here a lot but I think that I should stay up all-night for tonight because unless I take sleeping pills, I'm not going to get my schedule back on track for whenever school starts and I can walk more in the mornings than it the heat.
 
Spawn fan eh? And you could try a grocery store. They are usually always hiring at different points of the year. Have you read the recent Ultimate Spider-Man event?

Can't say that I have, but I've tried to go to grocery stores looking for comics but thus far I'm to little luck, one of my friends has shown me these really good looking comics that he got from one that used to sell them. Ever read any Nightbreed, or Wild Star? I just went ahead and looked through my collection and I have (3# - #9) of Spawn, tons of Spider-Man comics, sadly only three Batman comics and one of them is horrible, but the others are (Batman meets Spawn!) and (Batman meets The Punisher).
 
I don't think I've read either of those two. Although they do sound familiar. You might want to look up info for your area for any near by comic shops. You know it wasn't until last year *I think* that Spawn finally reached 200 issues?

Night Breed is written by Clive Barker, who also created the game, Jericho, and the movie series' Candy Man and Hellraiser. Night Breed is very well written however, is one of the most boring comics that I remember, yet it's just one that I can't forget. Wild Star's very entertaining and I have the very first issue which left off with a cliffhanger that made me want to keep reading. There's nothing significant in my area, I live in a village, where the thing closest to a shop is a gas station. As far as I know, there's no comics in the NEAR area. Besides, I have thirty-three comics that I still haven't read yet, give or take.
 
Oh wow, that must suck! And yeah, I've got a title or two I still need to read. Such as some singles I got awhile back, a Lady Death trade, the Superman vs. Muhammad Ali trade, and The Sixth Gun trade are ones I still need to get around to reading. And is there any cities you know of that could have a comic shop?
 
None that I know of, I'll keep my eyes pealed for any grocery stores that sell them along with rummage sales but I don't think there will be any actual stores. I was reading Curse of the Spawn a couple of days ago and I thought, There is noway this could get anymore awesome then I turn the page and I see, The Crow: The Angel of Vengeance. Awesome! I would love to get my hands on a Crow comic, and a Batman Beyond comic for that matter, they just started making Batman Beyond comics in 2008? and the animated show was great.
 
Nice! Speaking of the Crow, when I was at Hastings last week. I came across a Crow trade that was in black and white. Something I may consider putting on my to get list.
 
Kinda off the record, ever heard of the character, Nightwatch?

I am pretty sure that it was drew my one of the illustrators for the Spawn comic books after he left Death Row Records and went to Marvel.This was basically, Marvel's answer to Spawn. I actually had a comic starring him, and honestly, even though this makes absolutely no sense, it made me thrive for them to finally make a Marvel vs. DC game, because quite honestly, I don't care about Capcom, Street Fighters or Mortal Kombat.
 
Wow, it doesn't even look like they tried too hard to make him look all that different. But can't say I have heard of him though!
 
Nightwatch unsurprisingly didn't get that long of a run, this may be strange to say considering just how bad the X-Men Official Game was but X-Men Origins is kinda bad-ass. It brings about elements seen in Prince of Persia and God of War, two of the greatest games of all time, in my opinion. The game doesn't appear to have any desiring in ending though because I've been playing it for more than five hours and if my guess is correct and these secret achievements are all for aspects of the level than I've only finished two out of the seven chapters.
 
Sci said:
Ah, pity it didn't get a very long run. And what all X-Men related games have you played?

I'm kinda glad that a shameless rip-off didn't bring about success, and I've played X-Men: The Official Game and X-Men: Origins for the XBOX 360. The only other X-Men game that I know of is for the NES and X-Box Arcade.
 
Ahh I see. And yeah, makes sense that a rip off shouldn't last very long. Have you tried the Ultimate Alliance games? Or even the X-Men Legends games? Which those are on the PS2. And I think other platforms.

Ultimate Alliance is kinda generic which is to be expected because we couldn't possibly expect for them to formulated diverse move-sets and things to make all the characters standout but it's a really fun game, I beat it for the 360. I love whenever I rent Marvel games because not only do they usually serve as fun to play, but I usually walkaway with about 500g's worth of achievements. I never played X-Men Legends, but since it's not for the XBOX 360, which is what I'm focusing on right now, I probably won't pick it up anytime soon.
