Thank you

I am sorry to see you go after everything you've done for the playerbase. It was fun fighting alongside you with various EPN events despite whatever disagreements we had regarding how LESIG was run. Coming from someone that did not have th...

The Punisher: War Zone

As someone who watched both the 1989 Dolph Lungdren and the Thomas Jane film, War Zone is actually true to the source material. If you want a decent R-rated action movie, this is a decent ticket. Hell, I prefer this over the Nolan Batman m...

Mirror's Edge

I'll be surprised if this game is actually good. Already had some bad experiences with Namco's Breakdown in 2004, and my fear for Mirror's Edge is that the game will be nearly unplayable like Breakdown.

Terminator Salvation

Cons: - Written and directed by the crew responsible for Catwoman - PG-13 rating - Possible questionable cinematography. Addendum - Director was also responsible for Charlie's Angels.

I'm actually glad Derek managed to change from jack-*CENSORED* to likeable bad-*CENSORED*. Green is definitely my favorite guy actor in the series, especially with his Inspector Tequila-ish headshot he pulled off.
