I have barely seen it working and I haven't had the chance to play with one myself, but it seems a bit hard to handle and it looks way too fragile for me to actually consider to spend money on it.

The games all seem fine, though (but then again, it couldn't have been any other way).

Hello! What do you like to do in your spare time?
Hi C:

Well, this is a great part of what I do (I post actively in five forums and I'm a member of seven) but what I really like to do it's play 1vs1 or 2vs2 Ping-Pong Tournaments with friends, read a good book, go to the stadium... there's always time to watch a good-old cartoon too, and I also like to babysit my nephew.

Do you have a favorite Land Before Time character?  If so, who is it and why is he/she your favorite?
Littlefoot seems to be my favorite character, the voice they gave him in the Spanish dubbing really sold it for me. He sounded reflexive yet a little inexperienced to truly face his problems. I have yet to try the original voice and see if it reinforces my opinion, but for the time being, he is my champion :p

Why did you choose the username "Midnight"? It's always interesting to know why people come up with their names :yes:

Well, you see... Umbreon is one of my favorite PokÈmons, and his PokÈdex entry describes him as the "Moonlight PokÈmon"... that really stuck with me for years, and not long ago I joined a forum in which I finally used "Moonlight" as a name. I don't like to repeat nicknames, so when I found out about this place I tried to come up with something that sounded alike... and I really liked how this sounded.

I never had much of a problem with the tank controls either. That being said, I do think the story for RE is crap :p

I never understood why Final Fantasy is so popular. The storylines always seemed a bit boring to me
I know, right? I found them all boring at best... and God knows I tried to give them a fair chance.

And for the cherry on top... the Spanish translation to the seventh installment looks like it was made with an online translator from Japanese to Spanish... dude, it doesn't make any sense, plays around with upper case and lower cases as it pleases and the results are so bizarre that they are actually hilarious in a twisted way.

I kid you not when I say that is nearly unbeatable that way.

Well, they DO Have to have standards. They can't just accept every poorly written piece of crap that gets forwarded to them.
I know, but some of them were truly masterpieces with hundreds of favorites on DeviantART and stuff... I just don't get it.

Besides, I have seen some poorly made paint drawings making it to the site.

Well, y'all know how this works, so it's no use in trying to explain it (I guess).

Ask me whatever you want and I will try to come up with something mildly coherent as an answer :lol

My changelog wouldn't be as extensive, but I will make sure that it covers some of the most important aspects that can't be absent.

First of all: I would try to get all the original voice actors back.

Also, it would be a huge priority for me to get a better animation studio for the series (the original was fine, but I'm aiming higher for this reboot... TMS would do).

The third item on the list would be to give direct orders for the animators to stay away from the new standards and keep using the same coloring/shadowing bases. This is a series that just wouldn't work in the new "bright/reflective" style that is so common nowadays.

Fourth: If you have to cram songs into it, that's fine, but try to make something memorable with it, it would help immensely to raise the global appealing of the movie/show. In other words, get the people who made the songs from Animaniacs! (no, I'm being serious... don't you remember ALL that soundtrack? :lol:).

And finally... don’t make stupid changes to the series; don’t re-design the characters to adjust them to the new standards of appealing (they're dinosaurs xDD!) nor don't you dare changing the names.

With all that, I would be happy.

What is EQD?
Equestria Daily is some sort of a digital journal for pony-related aspects. It was one of the first pony-related sites out there, but it has grown really strong and it's a reference source for the everyday brony (although a lot of people seem to hate it due to some of it's policies; "We accept everything" they said, but I have met people who have sent them material by the hundreds and none of them was ever published, nor a reply was never received).

Personally, I don't mind the site at all, and I think that it is a bit overrated.

To be fair, RE 3 control-skin didn't bother me as much (greatly because of the story of the game, that kept me hooked up) but every other installment of the series seemed to be a miss cause for me, as the "tank controls" were too frustrating to master and the story didn't won me over.

I managed to finished Code Veronica on the Dreamcast, but I honestly don't know how I did it, because that game added dizzy camera angles (for scary purposes, I guess) to the mix. Nothing like walking into a room with the guard all set, just to have the music changing and the camera finding itself pointing down a ladder.

Woah, EQD is still on?? I wouldn't have expected that seeing how they had problems for posting things without permission and such.

To me, an ideal villain is one that is ruthless and smart, but also has some redeeming quality, something to hide from those who fear him and something to learn for those who fight him.

A big example of this should be General Woundwort from the Watership Down TV Series; he wouldn't hesitate about sending his own troops to the death by the hundreds and nor he would about killing the small and defenseless... but he is also very reflexive and his conscience is powerful enough to make him change his mind about an enemy if he finds something in common with said character... that stopped him from killing someone in the series, and was an epic moment (there was also a conflictive moment he had about another character in his nightmares... that is the kind of complexity that I want to see).

Sadly, most villians out there are just bland and mean. No character development whatsoever.

@Midnight: Unfortunately, I don't drive, nor do I currently show interest in doing so. I'd much prefer to spend my money on musical instruments than on a car and the accompanying insurance.
I respect that, I have my car permanently parked due to the high prices of fuel & maintenance.

Those are all beautiful images. The flowers are especially delicious, but I liked everything you have posted.

I'm not sure about what kind of technique did you use, but the results are quite impressive.

Keep it up!

I don't necessarily think it's that big of a deal that they keep coming out with new Pokemon. It used to bother me, but I came to realize it was pretty silly to get upset over something like that.

I agree, but isn't "catch them all" like the whole point of te series? Hard to focus on accomplishing that when you have no interest in grow your collection.

BTW: A few more:

I'm having big issues with the "Portal" series. I have heard so many times that these games were the new standard and the best thing that so many people have ever played but... you know what? I hate to admit it, but I found them really boring.

While everything seems to be fine about them (controls, graphics, music and sounds...) I just can't help but feeling them like a chore. I guess that I'm so used to the other releases by ValvE (ya know, the ones that involve pointing a gun at everything that moves until it stops doing it) to fully enjoy the series but... I don't know, I know I could pick up and play Left 4 Dead any day (even when I also found it to be really annoying at times -especially the second installment-) but that doesn't seem to be a possibility with Portal.

The first Diablo was also a top candidate to my "Are you serious?" list, but that one has won me over.

Yes, I'm hard to please :lol:
