24 Dec 2004 14:20 staff Nephtis Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	Yay! I hope the game is mighty fine, the series definately was.
24 Dec 2004 14:27 staff Ziyad Nerd Patriarch online \| PM \| e-mail	I'm just waiting for the Christian lawsuits.
25 Dec 2004 03:34 staff Nephtis Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	There's been a lot of anime to have involvement with religion, but yes, it would be typical of a lawsuit to begin. After all, it was in recent times that a group of idiots discussed violent games, or as Matt called it, "a group of angry moms".
25 Dec 2004 07:24 staff Matt Vapid-in-Chief online \| PM \| e-mail	Excuse me ,I believe I called them "fucking bitches" and "stupid procreating slutbags." Don't misquote me.
25 Dec 2004 18:34 staff Nephtis Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	My apoligies. :) I should do my research properly without guessing eh?
25 Dec 2004 18:41 staff Nephtis Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	Actually, I was pretty close. "Top 10 most violent games as designated by angry moms" so there was an angry mom thing going.
25 Dec 2004 19:29 staff Ziyad Nerd Patriarch online \| PM \| e-mail	Sadly, that article (and title) was written by Andrew; not Matt, whom you were attempting to quote.
25 Dec 2004 20:50 staff Matt Vapid-in-Chief online \| PM \| e-mail	Come on, I don't write everything on this site. That's what I have these guys for.
26 Dec 2004 16:33 staff Nephtis Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	Curses, my efforts were in vain! (Although with the whole random explosion, and the fact that it was such a Matt article, I get the feeling it was in fact by Matt)
26 Dec 2004 19:11 staff Andrew Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	Nope, that was all me baby. pelvic thrust
27 Dec 2004 19:57 staff Nephtis Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	Then why was it in Matt's Random Explosion before then?
27 Dec 2004 21:04 staff Ziyad Nerd Patriarch online \| PM \| e-mail	Because it was his explosion! He can explode about something without first writing an article about it, you know. I don't see why you keep insisting the two things correlate.
30 Dec 2004 02:53 staff Nephtis Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	I keep insisting that they do correlate, irrelevant of who wrote the original article, because they do. After having read the article, and then to have Matt's random explosion relating to the article made it appear that it was indeed written by him. If you wish to pedantically insist that people quote perfectly simply to make a point of stupid things that happened, you'll find that they do keep insisting upon the correlation of such things. I could have sworn it was Matt, and I was wrong. You can see how I was easily confused. Getting back to the topic at hand, I would think it funny if a lawsuit did occur. After all, there's those tools suing major companies over the use of 3D technology, that's just another example of legal proceedings gone way over the top.
30 Dec 2004 16:42 staff Rahul Face of Square Haven online \| PM \| e-mail	Holy shit this is so distant from being worth arguing about on New Year's Eve that I can't even begin to think of how much I should smack you guys around. Firecracker up the ass, anyone?
30 Dec 2004 19:53 staff Nephtis Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	Gets ready for cracker
04 Jan 2005 05:15 Seifer1161 Vapid Buttmunch offline \| PM \| e-mail	Vapid Buttmunch shut it.As in ur mouth anyways I think it was a great Article dude but the game is not all that I heard.
04 Jan 2005 05:17 Seifer1161 Vapid Buttmunch offline \| PM \| e-mail	don,t mind what I just said
08 Jan 2005 19:00 staff Matt Vapid-in-Chief online \| PM \| e-mail	Done.
09 Jan 2005 18:17 staff Nephtis Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	Has anyone that liked the series seen anything promising from the game? I know SquareEnix is doing it, but it'll be fairly crap if it's not good, the series was great.
09 Jan 2005 18:19 staff Ziyad Nerd Patriarch online \| PM \| e-mail	Well, if recall correctly, they had something to do with the series itself, so I doubt they'd be ones to currupt their own property.
12 Jan 2005 02:37 staff Nephtis Vapid Buttmunch online \| PM \| e-mail	Well, they were a major sponsor. They were the main company supporting the show, but it was such a mighty fine show that the game has a lot to live up to. Still, I look forward to reading the U.S reviews.
12 Jan 2005 04:45 Seifer1161 Vapid Buttmunch offline \| PM \| e-mail	Sup Matt I know this is a Full Methal Alchemist review but by any chance do u know any news on final fantasy 7 advent children debut on the U.S.
