Oh, I love you the most always giving up the ghost in your own private conversation, You're a sweet mystery, there is nothing in-between, you and the Mona Lisa.

After the PS2 comes out, how much do you think will a PS one 
cost? I've been loyal to the big N forever, but I'm thinking of buying a 
PSX for the Square games. - Father Rod
Philip: Dunno.. I'm buying one too though.. not the PS2.. the PS One! It's TINY!
Hey Philip can you post this please: There is a really good new discusion board for video games it's www.VGamer.net Thank you - The_Silver _Arrow
Philip: Okay. But only because you said please and you seem like a nice person.
A Pokemon G/S commecial was on the school TV network this morning! - gemini
Philip: It begins.
My DMG Ice Comic is up to twelve strips, and I owe it all to Josh Nickerson for starting the trend of comics for cult websites. I humbly thank you Josh *bow* - The Boinker
Philip: And once PTT sends me his Title Graphic.. we'll have another one... and if you would like to.. please send yours and a Title Graphic. ^_^ I mean, you gotta love website based comics. Absolutegb.com has some great ones too. I highly recommend them. On a side note.. who here thinks EAGB should have comics too. I mean, seriously... we want to see an anime-chibi Valerie. *grins*

Thank You - Mr. E
Philip: Right!
I have a theory that 'Culture Club' is the worst band in history. Agree with me Philip? - The Boinker
Philip: I think you may be right.. unless.. Carrot Top sings..
Stages of Death
A = Person A
B = Person B
1.Denial & Isolation
A: I can't wait for Earthbound 64 to come out! I've been waiting forever...
B: Dude, they canceled that.
A: What are you talking about? It's predicted that it'll come out in a few months.
B: Uh...are you feeling ok man?
A: Yes, I'm doing just peachy damnit! Go away!

2. Anger
A: Earthbound 64 got canceled just to piss me off. You suck Earthbound.

3. Rage
A: You really suck Earthbound!!

4. Envy & Resentment
A: Earthbound was so good to everyone. I should be the one that's dead, not poor EB64...Why oh why did they kill Earthbound 64?

5.Bargaining
*Person A calls up Nintendo*
A: If I send you guys a box of homemade cookies will you bring back Earthbound 64? Please?
Nintendo Customer Service Personnel: Um...I don't think so
A: Ok, then how about two boxes?
NCSP: Um...the next sound you'll hear will be a clicking noise that resembles that of a phone being hung up...but we're just putting you on hold. Nintendo values our customers and would never do anything like hang up on you.
*Click. Beep-beep-beep*
A: Hello? Hello?! How about three boxes? Four? C'mon, what do you want from me? How about five? Hello?
Operator Voice: If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and dial again.
A: You Foy killing bastards!!!!!!

6.Depression
A: Earthbound 64 has been canceled. What's the point of living...

7.Acceptance
B: Umm, ya know, EB might always come out for the GBA
A: Of course!! I have found a reason to live! I can finally accept EB64's demise, because it may always find its rebirth upon the GBA!
B: Oh...kay...I'm gonna go get a pizza. Don't follow me. - The Heptagon

Philip: I have the OSV for Earthbound. (Mother 2) It's a SOUNDTRACK. Envy me. I also got ahold of the legitimate copy of the Seiken Densetsu 1 OSV. (Final Fantasy Adventure) I'll review it soon just to make you all.. squirm. *grins* Although.. heh.. track me down on AIM and I'll share the MP3s of them. I ripped both of them onto my hard drive.
There is no white bread. Only the kitties. - spd12
Philip: Yippy, Skippy! The EVIL!!
After periodically trying out the Catch 'Em game, the other day I caught the last pokémon I needed, thereby getting all 151. The next day I caught the last three pokémon I needed on Pokémon Pinball, as well as Mew, thereby getting all 151. DMG Ice is truly a mystical 8-Ball. - The Heptagon
Philip: You and The Boinker sure write in a lot; but.. yeah!
Is it just me, or is anyone else somewhat pissed that Nintendo didn't put the Y & X buttons on the GBA? - Avatar1130
Philip: At first I was like.. aww... then I realized that a lot of great games didn't actually NEED all the buttons. I mean, you could play Earthbound with one hand. I don't remember what the L & R buttons did in Final Fantasy 4, 6, Chrono Trigger. They were veritable useless in Donkey Kong Country, Super Mario World, Kirby's Super Star, Super Mario RPG, Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Secret of Mana, Breath of Fire, and many other games. In Star Fox and Super Metroid.. all the buttons were used; but that could be reworked. Why doesn't Nintendo just make us all happy and release a "Zelda" Trilogy cartridge with a reworked Legend of Zelda, Adventure of Link, and Link to the Past. That would be... SO damn cool. It wouldn't be hard at all and thousands of young gamers would be exposed to the first three games. With the fourth, seventh, and eighth games on the system as well.. it would be.. well.. yeah!
Just thought you'd like to see this...  I told some people I know about the MGS name generator, and this happened:

When was the last time you read anything that twisted?  Eh heh heh heh... - NeoVid

Philip: It has cussing.. so.. umm.. if cussing offends you.. stay the Hell away from it.
NO you don't get it I want to touch you're FOY *wink* *wink* *nudge* *nudge* - Britney Spears
Philip makes a face of sheer Elian "The Dolphins Pushed Me!" Gonzalez terror: Oh, no! The Tall Lady wants me!
The person who transloated Digimon is actually a really nice person, and keeps it as true as possible. It's Fox that does all the cutting, and adding the stupid puns like 'I'm surging with energy, SOMEONE GET ME A SCRATCHING POOOOOOOOOOST!'. She has her own website too at 
www.megchan.com/digimon - The Boinker
Philip: Digimon... yummy! Tastymon! Digimon are digital; so they taste better than Pokemon. But.. no Digimon tastes like Misty.. Mmmm.. Misty. *snickers*
Why would that be, eh?!

Which red triangle are you referring to? The project to infiltrate the United States Army with a bioweapon that we started with Russia and Yugoslavia during the Cold War? Or our plan to make a female version of "Tinky Winky" for the Teletubbies? - Spooky Mulder

Philip: Think, Mulder.. what COMPANY, not currently developing for Nintendo, has a Red Triangle in their name. The Truth is out Square... I mean.. There. Oh, well.. Square needs to develop for the Cube.. I mean.. it works so well! Square + Cube = Happy us. Calculus!

(From the top of Saturday's Viral Speak) - Ynsi

Philip: We seem to spawn/attract a lot of MSTers. Tom Servo would shed a tear if he could..
What is the game cube, another GBA accessory? - geezer
Philip: Yes.
ok, GB rules, but you gotta admit, no matter how hard a GB game tries to remake itself with cutscenes and color, it STILL can't beat the Chrono Trigger '99 remake... I mean, BIRD STUDIO. that says it all. (note to all: Toriyama didn't do the anime sequences. the character drawings for remake aren't by him. He did the ORIGINALs, but his Bird Studio cronies and lackies did remake [very well, too!]) but no, they put bad games remade into America, home of the gullible suckers, but not CHRONO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

.................................................What?
 

I'll just sit here with my tea playing Hitch-Hiker's guide to the Galaxy, then, shall I?......... <at that very moment, the Vogon fleet arrives to demolish the supercomputer 'Earth' to make way for an interstellar bypass. the DMG Ice staff, however, is drunk, so they won't get hurt by the Matter Transference beam (Muscle relaxant). I gather them all up and press the green button and we go bye-bye and you all die. So long.>

Foy. - Arthur Dent/Super SaiyaMew

Philip: Square made a lot of stupid mistakes. One is Wonder Swan development; instead of GBC. And two is not bringing Tobal 2, Chocobo's Dungeon 1, Chrono Trigger '99, Radical Dreamers, Final Fantasy 2j, Final Fantasy 3j, and Seiken Densetsu 3 over to the US. And the BIGGEST Square mistake ever: "3-D World Runner". Although.. the Chrono Trigger remake has it's problems. Remember that the PSX can't handle mode 7 very well and loading times are an issue. You've seen the slow combat in FF6 for the PSX.. I mean.. seriously. I think the best remake I've seen though.. was Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete. Complete over-haul, new plot points, more music, more depth, one of the BEST villians ever, and well.. the beautiful extras make it a brilliant remake. Working Designs is one of the best translators there is in the business.. rivaled only by SNK. *snickers*
I'd buy a PSX when Heck freezes over.  I like the look of Square's games (Chrono Cross's Opening Theme = Best VG Music EVER), but that's the only thing I like about it.  PS2 really has no titles I'm remotely interested in.  GameCube and Dreamcast, on the other hand, have some very sweet looking (Zelda, Metroid, Shenmue, Jet Grind Radio, even the Luigi's Mansion demo...) and unique (Crazy Taxi, Seaman) games.  And GBA?  I think it looks like the best 32-bit system ever...I really like the system's design, especially the clear blue one.  If only Square would wise up and work on some old-school 2D games, GBA would be the all-powerful gaming force. - Sebulba113
Philip: Even without current Square stuff.. I still have all their old stuff for the GB. You know.. Enix is going to make a killing with their GBC and GBA projects. I hope Square is watching. Look, Square! It's ENIX and they're kicking your @ss! I hope the heads of Square/EA look at Enix and think..  "Screw going Nasdaq.. let's go GBA!" It would be substantially less risky.
That star wars demo looked so real it didn't seem possible. - Kokuss
Philip: Star Wars: Rougue Squadron 2... oh, joy... fighting in space.. my gameing thumbs quiver in anticipation...
Augomon has more of a peachy taste, actually. A little too sweet for citrus. - CodeBlue
Philip: You know.. now that I've started eating them.. I like Digimon a bit more than I used to..pass the Mimi. Digimon.. why can't it be a legitimate Game Boy Color game?
