Honestly, it's been going on for a few years now, and it's kinda disgusting exactly how much total trash labelled "alternative medicine" is making the rounds these days.
So, with things like "magnetic therapy" (sans MRI), homeopathic "medicine", the Atkins diet, and that great elixer made from a root found only on the tallest mountain of China that's a sure thing to cure what ailes you, how long is it until we actually, I mean we REALLY DO, start seeing mercury being sold as medicine?
I'm serious, Star Wars fanboys are more annoying than Trekkies, id fanboys, and general video game fanboys put together. At least from what I've seen. Anywhere you go you'll see people bitching to no end about how George Lucas "raped my childhood!", hates his fans (even if that were true who could blame him?), is satan, etc. etc. The Star Wars trilogy is coming out on DVD soon and you can't go to any message board without seeing people bitch and moan for a hundred pages about how terrible they think certain things are (even though all the changes are improvements over the SE). I really don't understand that mentality. If you hate the movies so much why the fuck are you wasting so much of your free time complaining about them? And none of them agree on most of the same stuff, they each want their own personal version of Star Wars to be made. It's maddening. Most of the time it's just complaining for the sake of complaining (like how in a couple of scenes on the dvds ILM didn't update some lightsaber shots... WHICH RUINS THE ENTIRE SAGA!).
Complaining isn't always bad, but when there's absolutely no balance and all you can do is complain then you need to shut the fuck up and stop posting on message boards. I complain about Nintendo stuff all of the time, but I praise them for various things even more frequently. They're dumb for being anti-online, but holy crap do their games kick ass, etc. To conclude my bitching about people bitching, fanboys are idiots. Especially SW ones.
Sega's first DS game revealed! Stolen from the GA boards:
I have no idea what the hell that is but it certainly looks awesome. It's from ex-UGA guys (Rez, Space Channel 5) so you know it's gonna kick ass. And supposedly it only uses the touch screen.
Great Rumbler: I fixed your post, you had some of the pics on there twice.
Sweet, it looks like the new Yoshi GBA game will be a platformer using Wario Ware 2-style motion sensor controls. Pretty damn cool, huh? It looks a lot like Yoshi's Story but is obviously not the same game.
Oh and I must give props to Nintendojo for reporting that Yoshi GBA platformer rumor last year. Good call, guys.
