Viral Speak 10-25-2000
Plethora! FUN WORD!

Hey Phil, who are you? We VSers demand to know. I have seen your face before, but can't find it. Who are you? Age? Location? Tell us all.

BTW, I noticed the GBA multiplayer games only will require 1 cart on some of them. Yay! Less money to spend. - JaYgEe1

Philip: I'm like.. 20. I live in Knob Noster, MO. Which might as well be called "Greytown". I would like to scare you now with this E3 2000 picture you didn't see!! Happy Halloween!
Ok overall, the playstation 2 $ucks. its not that its that much worse than the dreamcast, because it isn't. but why pay 300+ bucks for a system that might be just a hair better than psx, and trails way behind dreamcast? - Sugarkang
Philip: You know what I wish? I wish there was another handheld out in the market.. that had at least 10 to 20% of the market... so.. instead of hitting such an easy target like the PS2; -A monument to hype and a testament to what is wrong in the video game business- I could then enjoy bashing some other system. *sigh*
Heh! I have a gameshark code for pokemon gold and silver:

010719D1

Now, go out into the grass areas and... - Mankind

Philip: Evil.. bwa ha ha!

THE LUCKY NUMBER SHOW!!!

Cheers,

Philip: God bless the show.
ok, one- how do i breed in silver?
2- where are the evolution stones to make eevee into those 2 new types? and 3- why dosnt my rival like me? not enough deoderant? something between my teeth? i think im gonna cry. - jumbo
Philip: Leave one of male gender and one of female gender at the day care, below Goldenrod. Then, go back into the city of Goldenrod. Place your Game Boy next to some soft romantic music. Preferably something sung by Barry White. It doesn't need to be on when you do this. Leave it there for a few hours. Come back, and if you're lucky.. some hot monster loving has taken place. The two new types? Make it really happy, talk to the lady in Goldenrod during the day or night.. and it will evolve. As for your rival? Pardon my Missourian slang. But your rival is an ass. You heard me. He's the frickin' CMSU mascot. He's such a hateful child. A perfect example of the wrong type of attitude. When he grows up, he'll buy an IROC-7. Although.. he has a sensitive side to him. You'll note that he finally does realize the error of his ways. And all that had to happen was for you to beat him several times and for Lance to chew him out. Lance is cool. I must say that I liked all the characters in this game. Your rival has way more depth than Gary. Even if Gary is also in the game. I liked them all. I even got used to mom calling me "Baby". All the characters are awesome in this one. Even your "mute" buddy "Red" (Ash) is cool.
It's true, Game Boy has all it's doors open. Yay! ^_^

..except for new Square stuff. Which is just about the only thing I miss from PlayStation anyway.

..

*cries* - TK421

Philip: It's a shame we have no new Square stuff. But.. we have Enix, Agetec, Atlus, and several companies made up of ex-Square employees. You know, the people who worked for Square when Square made RPGs. We also have Camelot, Silicon Knights, Retro, Nintendo Software Technology, Brownie Brown, Media Factory, Gamefreak, and many other companies that can make and distribute RPGs. We don't actually need Square. You read that correctly. We have Square's employees, the people who gave their hearts and souls in games like Secret of Mana, the Saga series, Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger. Square doesn't have them anymore. They have mostly new staff, now. Oh, we also have ex-members of Sonic Team. Even our "garage" developers are doing amazing things. Look at Decathlon 2000 or Mythri. Why pine for a mere label on the bottle; when you already have the wine inside?
Hey look, Phil is putting off Viral Speak! That means this message will not get on like the other 3 I sent! Man this guy is MEAN! - Aipom
Philip: I caught you today. I wish you were a sock Aipom.
Hi, I am going to talk about  all the systems controllers.  I think dreamcast is more better than all other controllers becuase its more smother than ohter controllers and more confureable.Unlike N64(which breaks in about a week, well the joystick part of it)reallys suck.I like some of the games that why i play but if they had dreamcast controllers for n64 i would be much better.My friend luke AKA (SuperSmashBlu which is also stupid say different) What do you think? - CrazyKiller
Philip: Hmm.... next letter...
I think the N64 controller is the best because it fits the best in you hand. The Dreamcast controller puts your fists too close together and the playstation controller is too small. The weak points of the N64 controller is (1) the fact that analog stick gets loose after accesive use and (2) it is difficult to use digital pad and analog pad in the same game. My associate, CrazyKiller, seems to think other wise. What is your opinion? - SuperSmashBlu
Philip: Hmm.. you are both wrong. In my opinion the Top-Loading NES had the best controller. The redesigned controller was small; but featured big buttons. It had a cross pad, and four buttons. It basically melted into your hands. You can play Mario 3 for hours and not ever worry about the controller.
How, for the love of God, do I get Umbreon? I have an Eevee "factory" (wink wink) set up at the dacare center, and I want all of the Eevelutions, so does anyone know how to get Umbreon? Oh, look, another egg..those Eevees are machines! - Admiral Tailz
Philip: Get 'em happy! AT NIGHT!
Persians are very arousing - Tracey Sketchum
Philip: Mmm.. gotta love the pussy!
I started negotiating with Adam Sessler. This is what the deal is. I have to give him Armenian string cheese, a double cheese burger, and a pizza at E3 2001 and he'll dye his hair blue and grow it as long as John Romero's. - Ramzi
Philip: That would be funny. If you could get Peter Main to do it.. you'd be like a deity.
All around the Mint Berry bush,
The Mankey chased the Sneasle.
The Mankey thought t'was all in good fun,
*POP* goes the Sneasle. - The Heptagon
Philip: ha ha!
Hey Phil. I still feel left out cuz my stupid audio player won't let me listen to Radio DMG. Anyways I was waiting for my ridde outside and some kid is rolling down a hill and when he got up I noticed that he was wearing a Nintendo shirt with old school games like Zelda II on it. Yeah. And when I opened the box of Corn Pops TM I found some rolly Pikachu and I was like, Whoa! So Chill and like keep rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin'... - Aipom
Philip: Sweetness.
You should go on Napster and download two Weird Al songs called Laundry Day and Free Delivery. They are both live. And quite funny, I assure you. - Gemini
Philip: Napster is the best thing for bootlegs. And on that note. I would like to say that "Sure, it may be considered illegal; but that's because America is a Facism." People need to realize that on-line, on the internet.. there aren't any boundries you would normally expect. Napster is a thing of Perfect Communism. Everything is the same and available freely. In other words, everything is shared. It's a perfect enviroment. It may be sketchy in the eyes of defiling record labels, though. You see, when you sign on to a label. THEY own your songs. Napster is a way to "steal what has already been stolen", robbing the theft of talent for the enjoyment of masses. If I download an MP3 and I send that MP3 to a friend. I'm doing something illegal; but it's a posotive illegal. I like to buy CDs. A lot of people still buy CDs. No one stopped buying CDs because of Mini-Disks or Cassette Tapes. No one stopped going to theatres because of video tapes. No one -save for those who would never buy that album to begin with- will stop buying CDs. Saying that people will stop buying CDs; because of MP3s is like saying no one will buy a DVD; because they can have a friend record a copy of a tape. I'll check 'em out.
Just a thought -- Are you going to have a count down counter on DMG Ice once an offical US release date has been set for the Gameboy Advance? Would be a nice touch. Take it easy. - Salohcin Geen
Philip: I'm importing.
Well, I'm 36, not in college, and a pokemaniac. I have the games, cards, toys, clothes (can't find pikachu slippers or underwear in adult sizes!) and go to the pokemon trading card league. I've won 4 badges already! There are 2 plush pikachu's that ride on the dash of my purple tracker, but when my husband drives and I'm not along he throws them in the back seat! And, my pokemon pikachu 2 goes with me everywhere. One last intersting note---this weekend at the trading card league, some guy gave my daughters' pokemon pikachu 2 999 watts! Oh wait, one more thing---a couple of weeks ago at the mall nintendo was running a pokemon puzzle league (N64) contest and I had the top score of the day!! My kids were so proud of me. - pikamom
Philip: That's awesome. Your kids are lucky.
2 things:
First, about that VS yesterday where that dude said Rage Against the Machine is hypocritical; they're not. Thats why their lead singer, Zack de la Rocha, left the band several days ago. Don't be ragging on a non-existent band.

And second, I got a real job! At a cool website! Yeah. Ultimate Dreamcast Webzine. Check it out at
www.ultimategamez.com ,k?
DMG Ice rocks! - Dreamaster

Philip: Rage Against The Machine = kinda preachy to me. They have as much tact as Oasis has originality. But there's nothing wrong with that.
Remember, DJ LILY says:
ROUTE 16 is too picky! - The Heptagon
Philip: God bless the game!
what mode do you keep your pokedex in?  - pikalo
Philip: Must resist urge to say "my pants"... Old Style.
hey Philip! Guess what! Steel is weak to fire and dark is weak to fighting. I got all 16 badges and defeat the mighty evil pikachu!Can I have a cookie now? - chibi-me
Philip: Cookie for you! *tosses you the cookie*
please update the liberman comic strip its the best!!! - boss64
Philip: Yeah.. if Josh doesn't update it.. I might update it myself...
In G/S, where can I find Eevee? - Pantsless Entity
Philip: Bill gives him to you.
I like Digimon... Yet the music should be kept out of Radio DMG, because the dub stuff sucks. The Japanese stuff is good though. Get some of that. Or some nice Slayers stuff. - Globe Flower
Philip: I fully intend to exclude Digimon. Except for maybe in a skit or two. he he he. I'm going to make mock commercials. ^_^
Well, you COULD get a X-Box for the same amount as Playstation 2, but why not take that money and get GameCube & Game Boy Advanced and more games with better quality? 

Yea, I know Spyro, Lara & Crash are on other systems, but they will always be affliated with "Playstation" so I threw them in there. Know of any other Sony mascots? o.O

I got a Scizor today! Happy happy happy! ^_^ I got my favorite Pokémon from Gold/Silver! Oh, and I got a Ledyba toy today. I painted over the little disc that comes with it to read "Foy".

You have TWO Digimon products? I have only one, that LCD Digivice thing. On it I have Tentomon & Kabuterimon, the only two good Digimon, besides Hercules Kabuterimon, on there! - Duke

Philip: Sure thing Raynor. The purple spike headed polygon guy is Sony's original mascot. Other than that.. they always have.. the rabbit of Jumping Flash!
YAY! Everyone gets to watch Boinker bust out his weird and liberal views! YAY!

Anyway, I'm going to pretend that all the VS over the past couple of days was personally directed to me, and respond.

First off: Wonderswan. I support the swan Heavily. First off, it's always good for consumers when there is competition (even though it wasn't my prefered handheld, I was sad to see teh NGPC go). Secondly, it will publish some of the old Final Fantasys updated with FF4 style graphic. I've waited long for this, very long. We also get tons of Digimon games.

This brings me to the next subject: Digimon. Specifically music. Phil, I like digimon, but given the general opinion of this site's sommunity, I suggest you not do it. Furthermore, US Digimon music blows. If you want to listen to the real deal, try this radio station: 
166.90.148.114:12454

Last subject: Playstation 2. Embrace your PS2. Love your PS2, if not for it's software (like me), then do it for the comedy value. What evil corporation will you get at after Sony is gone? Microsoft, maybe, but Microsodt bagging is dead since we've all head it and memorized it. Befriend your playstation 2, because it is probably going to have:

1. Capcom, Enix, and Contrail RPGs
2. Tons of FIghters
3. And, if you're into that kind of thing, it has SQUARE! You LOVE 
SQUARE! You'd buy SQUARE if they sold you an empty box! - The Boinker

Philip: PS2.. I can't love it. It's not a cute system. PS One = cute. Redesigned SNES, redesigned NES, N64, Virtual Boy, all handheld systems = cute. PS2 looks like a VCR. VCRs are not cute. In fact, they are boring and dull. I can not love something that unloveable. The XBox. Will I go after it in the future? No. I despise some of Microsoft's products, and their general attitudes toward competition. However -as Jazz would point out- they have some great Macintosh products, and Bungie is on their side. Sony doesn't even have Square anymore. Most people have already bought an empty box from Square it was called: "Parasite Eve". Yeah, I didn't like that game.
Metal Gear, Final Fantsay, Crash, and Spyro all slated to end up on the X-Box. Damn. Is it just me or does Microsoft REALLY know how to pimp? - Tenryuujin
Philip: They know how to pimp. They pimp republicans too.
In pokemon gold and silver, why does your rival look like a girl? What's with that? - Mankind
Philip: Because he's not nice.
Buy!
The bottom graphic in this box is stupid. It has no ALT text. Point and laugh at it.
I like being blue and white. BUY A GAME!!!
