The House on Mango Street. While the rest of the freshman english classes were reading actually interesting books like the Alchemist or To Kill a Mockingbird, my class was reading this uninteresting book and listening to the audiobook, as read by the author who sounded like she had an ice pick...

I'm sure this is going to pop up a lot; mine just isn't cut out for running a lot of newer games and it would be way too expensive to fully upgrade it at this point.

In no particular order: 1.) In Silent Hill 3, the was a random noise heard in the Subway area that made me literally drop my controller in terror. 2.) In the Indie game Which there's this spooky woman that pops up behind you around and no matter how prepared I am, I still jump every time I...

Mine is named "Sheep," and I refer to him as "the terminally badass Commander Sheep Shepard." I modeled mine after Clint Eastwood and myself...although he came out not looking like either party. Conversationally, he tends to go for the nice thing to say, but inversely will never pass up the...

I was playing Left 4 Dead with some random folks once and we were cutting through some buildings when we began to hear the Witch crying somewhere nearby. Undaunted, our fearless defacto leader proceeded into the next room, an unfinished room of drywall and hopped on to a workbench to give us...

My personal favourite death soliloquy doesn't really involve words, but it works so well without them. It's the death of the villain from "Enter the Ninja" which can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EvPvfVOUV8 However, if I had to make a choice that actually involved words, I do...

I've read most of the Halo books. Can't complain. I'm really interested in checking out the Myst book, which is a massive tome that I suspect is merely a novelisation of the first three games. Oh and I endorse avoiding the Elder Scrolls books if you don't constantly dream of Cyrodil.

I would never be able to put my finger on my favourite video game soundtrack, but recently I have been gaining appreciation for the soundtrack to Earthbound. It's got quite a variety; everything from a rocking tune (Pokey Means Business), or catchy jingles that will be stuck in your head for...

Silent Hill 2 and GTA San Andreas. I would love to see a creepy atmospheric horror game that also doubled as a massive sandbox, preferrably one that doesn't give me headaches or bug out constantly like the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games.

By the time I neared the end of the first Assassin's Creed I was so sick of it that I was prepared to stick the CD down the garbage disposal and set fire to the box and manual just so I wouldn't ever have to clap eyes on the damn thing. However, I have a complex known as "Achievement...

I'll probably mess up embedding this, but my pick is "Slave Children's Crusade" from the Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom soundtrack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q98-Fbg1p48 Edit: If anyone is feeling saintly enough to fix this, please do :C

I would take a page from the Michael Bay book of [lame] ideas and end the Zelda franchise with whatever planet Link and his friends are on exploding.

I played Superman 64 a very long time. At the time I was young enough to be pleased soley by the practise mode where you got to fly around with no pressure.

I saw Dream Theater open for Iron Maiden, that was cool. And I got one of Iron Maiden's tour t-shirts that I've yet to see anywhere else so that's always a plus.

The Empire Strikes Back soundtrack will always be my favourite, with the Dark Crystal soundtrack being a close runner-up.
