@highway.... Brazil is a damn fine film, I had forgotten about that, Jabberwocky was odd, incredibly odd.

Thats what made it good, how odd it was



Girl's often use "Terri" or "Teri", typically a nickname for Theresa. It seemed to hit it's peak in the US in the 1960s. http://www.thinkbabynames.com/meaning/0/Terri

As for Terry Gilliam, he's generally a solid director if you can forgive his past two efforts. He is not, however, the director of "A Clockwork Orange;" that was Stanley Kubrick.



Oops yeah sorry, ignore that about CO.



Nintendo doesnt advertise a lot compared to the other companies so their games get spread mostly mouth to mouth



"Like you know"

You should come to england rudyrsr8, you cant move for wii adverts, anyone who watches channel 4 will vouch for that.

I lost my legs in a tractor incident. I now call it the Tractor Story.

Seinfeld FTW!

The BuShA owns all!

A game has legs if it doesn't show traditional drops. Here are signs of that:

1. Sales more than it did in its launch week.

2. Levels off at a respectable weekly sales units, normally above 15k, but dependent on territory.

3. Increases vastly during holiday season.

The only way for a game to get legs is for the game to have mainstream appeal. When that happens the legs will always come through. That is why #1 is included. You'll notice with a lot of hardcore games that they'll sell big on the first week but that's it. From thereon after can't even pass what it did in the first week for the rest of its lifetime.



The Xbox 360 has legs. It actually "walked" into my house. That's how I got it.



Mario & Sonic is a great example of legs, despite how much so many have moaned Sonic isn't lighting fast.

Well I guess they forgot his biggest speed would come from his spin dash, which would likely get him disqualified.

As for other legs, Metroid Prime 3 certainly vindicated its seemingly poor opening. Even Viva Pinata.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
