The Holidays

Lord Duality · The Holidays

Just a few more months till the holidays, which means everyone knows what they want.

So, what do you need? I want Trilogy before or during the holidays.

Heartless Banryx

Pikmin 2 new play control, if my australian version doesn't work. If not that a new LCD tv from my game room.

General Ceyrox

I would very much like an iTouch. Banryx is very selfish with his, and I want my own.

NS_Venom

Soul Calibur: Broken Destinies, a new lego set (Yes, I still build legos. So what? It kills time.), and maybe I'll save some money for Pokemon SoulSilver when it comes out next spring.

Lord Duality

HERO system... Nuff Said.

Heartless Banryx

What's that?

General Ceyrox

You selfish person! (Points at Banryx)

I don't know what else I want, but I'll think about it.

Heartless Banryx

Hmph. If my Wii breaks like I think it will then a new Wii. :)

Lord Duality

Uh, HERO system, I feel embarrassed saying this, but it is a Pen and Paper RPG. It looks really fun though...

Everything else good won't come out soon, like Monster Hunter 3 and Red Steel 2.

Heartless Banryx

I've never heard of monster hunt 3...

Lord Duality

Monster Hunt was really popular in Japan. Now they are bringing it back to us. Well, we did have most of the other ones, but this one is for the wii. It was going to be for the PS3, but it was to expensive to develop it there.

Envision a huge world full of monsters. Each monster eats other monsters making a huge food web. They need Food, Sun, Sleep, just like real creatures. Now, envision hunting them in Mountain, Desert, Forest, and Underwater terrains with 3 other people online or a friend via split screen. You can also mine for resources and carve up their bodies into meaty delights and pelts. Hundreds of monsters to fight with classic Medieval Weaponry. Plus it will support Wii Speak. It looks really fun.

Heartless Banryx

Yeah, I might have to swipe it.

Lord Duality

Do you think I could make money as a Pitchmen?

Heartless Banryx

Perhaps, depends on the game mostly, though, I think.

Dread Abyss

What do I want for the holday? Uh... I'd like the man from across the street that stares at me for hours on end to be mutilated.

Or perhaps a notebook, some new headphones, and Battlefield: Bad Company 2. As long it totals up to $100 my family's fine.

Heartless Banryx

I didn't know there are houses across the street for you? I'm so sorry Abyss. *shakes head* Poor Abyss.

NS_Venom

Ah, yes. I forgot Battlefeild 2 was coming out, I want that as well. Btw, I'm getting a job.

Heartless Banryx

It can't be too well-paying...

NS_Venom

I don't know the pay yet. I just need it so I can buy stuff in Japan, such as food.

Lord Duality

Heh, getting a job eh? Fun...

Heartless Banryx

Oh, well in that case, go nuts.

NS_Venom

Anyway, back on topic, does anyone want to add anything to their list?

Lord Duality

Um, Yes! I want drawing classes so I can be as good as all my Visual Arts friends, they make me feel inferior.

NS_Venom

Ok, drawing on paper isn't too hard if you draw a lot. On a computer, well, I suck so I don't have any tips...

Lord Kaen

I actually draw better on a computer. xD

Lord Duality

You guys make me feel bad. I had to drawr common household objects. Think Rukia, but Crappier, think Cassy, but Crappier. Drawring classes might be a bit nice.

NS_Venom

Lol, practice! You'll get better if you just practice. You don't need to spend a thing that way, and if you need help, ask a friend for some tips.

Lord Kaen

I just started taking an art class Freeze. Don't feel bad. lol

Dread Abyss

What can I say to Freeze that ES and Kaen haven't already said to him? Argh, practice! You'll get worse if you just practice. You need to spend a thing that way, and if you need help, it's not worth learning.

Turns out my Christmas list has been revised as Bad Company 2 is coming out during March of 2010, not this December... So instead of what I previously mentioned, my parents are thinking of getting me a laptop!

NS_Venom

Sweet.

Lord Kaen

ah, same for me for the laptop

NS_Venom

They help, my parents got me one for my school work. Turns out, I just about use it for everything now.

Heartless Banryx

Practice? Meh, I took Art for a full year, and honestly most of artisitic talent is just that, talent. People are born with it, most aren't, though. That's just my opinion.

At this rate I might not get Pikmin 2 by Christmas.

NS_Venom

SO IT DIDN'T WORK! I knew it...

General Ceyrox

Not that, ES. And Banryx, that's very, very pesamistic.

NS_Venom

I know that now.

General Ceyrox

Back on topic, me and Banryx want a nice TV for our game room, but we're not quite sure if that's going to happen.

NS_Venom

Yeah, good luck with that...

General Ceyrox

Hey, you're hoping for a laptop!

NS_Venom

No, I already have one, remember?

General Ceyrox

Oh, right. It's Kaen and Abyss. I knew it was two people. Anywho, how do you know what our parents would get us for Christmas?

Heartless Banryx

If its the only thing both of us ask for then I think we have a better chance.

Dread Abyss

I'm not sure whether I'm getting my dad's laptop; maybe I'll get a new one, although I'd be fine with my dad's. What kind of laptop are you getting, Kaen?

That'd be pretty cool if you guys got a TV up there, hopefully you do. My parents want to get a new TV because the ones we have are pretty old and the speakers are basically adequate.

NS_Venom

My tv speakers are shot, so I use these speakers that pretty much plug into anything now. Plus, they're really loud!

Dread Abyss

Are they good or just loud?

NS_Venom

It almost sounds like surround sound. So yeah, they're good.

Dread Abyss

Excellent, or, as a kid in my tennis class would put it, "epic!"

How much were the speakers and what're they called?

Lord Kaen

Surround sound messes with me. xD

Whenever I hear a gunshot, or blades making that 'SHING' noise, I always duck. xD

Dread Abyss

Lord Kaen

Enough. I switched that mode off the game though...

NS_Venom

Lol, thats funny. Also, I don't know how much, my sis got them for me for last Christmas.

Heartless Banryx

I have surround sound.

Dread Abyss

*delayed* Curses!

I've recently decided I want an iPod so I can listen to music without an irritable adapter and because iPods likely have better sound quality.

Lord Duality

I want an I-Touch for my brithday or christmas...

Dread Abyss

Doesn't Banryx already have an iTouch that you two can... share... Oh, I see the problem. Have your parents said anything of it?

General Ceyrox

I'm asking for an iTouch for Christmas, and they basically have to give me one, since they gave Banryx one last year.

Lord Kaen

My sis likes to play that rule...I don't think it's fair. Then again we're 5 years difference in age. Dunno what it would be like if I had a twin.

Huh, another me. That might actually be pretty cool...XD

I'm hoping to get an iPhone or iTouch for my birthday or christmas. My Vu is dying. fast. Hasn't lasted a year. T-T

NS_Venom

The only reason I'd get an iphone is for Pandora radio.

Two Kaens? Hmmm....

Lord Duality

I-phone and I-touch are amazing. Very strong.

Dread Abyss

I'm starting to want an iPod less because my phone works well for music and I could probably just get a CD player for half the price of an iPod.

If there were two of me there wouldn't be just two of me. Certainly not.
How much are the iPhone and iTouch individually?

Lord Duality

8 gig (which is plenty for apps, music, and everything) are 180 dollars. Well, thats for an Itouch, dunno bought the others.

NS_Venom

I'll ask my mother when shes off the phone.

Dread Abyss

Ask her what, _V?
Just $180 isn't bad, though I wonder what a 1 gig iTouch would cost.

NS_Venom

_V? I never thought Venom would be a long name...

"And so, it was stored on a 1 gig flash drive." ~South Park referance.

General Ceyrox

Yes, I think an eight gig would work fine for you Abyss, that's what Banryx has. I don't think you should consider getting an iPhone anyway, because you'd have to switch providers.

Dread Abyss

Do you mean the iTouch or the iPhone? Anyway I definately won't get one, a simple iPod is too expensive.

_V sounds better than Venom to me. Though I am considering just using _, but that would be too vague. Good reference.

Lord Kaen

Venom. Like the black Spiderman guy? xD

Dread Abyss

I always thought Venom was a cool villain. It's too bad he sucked in Spiderman 3. Perhaps he's using the name of a rock band in the 80s, or several rock bands in the 80s.

NS_Venom

Thanks.

Believe it or not, this was my very first nickname. Well, in the days of the N-Siders that is. I was playing Shadow's WOW, and all the names I could think of were taken!

However, no one but I has come up with NS_Venom!

No, I'm not named after the Spiderman villan. I used to burn people with this character on Metroid Prime: Hunters, called Spire, and Venom came to mind for some reason.

General Ceyrox

Dread Abyss

Does the NS stand for anything?

As I expected, bwuh. Nah, I ain't getting an iPod anymore.

General Ceyrox

Why not? Are you going to get an MP3?

Dread Abyss

Too expensive and not really worth the money. My phone works good enough for music and if I wanted to listen to something with better audio than my phone then I should just get a CD player. I probably will get a portable CD player, hopefully it'll be nice.
