  I just played GTA for the first time ever!

  Man, i just played GTA3 and GTA Vice City on Xbox, and yes its the first time I have ever played a GTA game. It really is a revolutionary game. I played True Crime before i ever playing GTA, and man, now i see how much better GTA is... The world feels real, it's kind of scarey, because maybe it could, with the wrong person, desensitize someone to violence in real life. If you kill in the game(well, If you kill enough), the world reacts, namely the police. Now if only i could get my hands on GTA San Andreas...

  Afterthoughts: Zelda The Wind Waker

  I really liked this game, even though i didnt think i would before i started playing it. Really nice graphics. Outstanding gameplay, pretty good A.I. too. I was really impressed with the deep story line. I only wish i had beaten Ocarina of Time first.
  All the referals to the "Hero of time" is what really kept me going until i had beaten the game, As I hadnt played a Legend of Zelda game since the original Zelda on the NES. People like to put down Wind Waker for its kiddy graphics, but I can only wish that half of the games released are as good. I beat this game in anticipation of the new Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess coming out on Gamecube soon. If the new "Grown up" graphics come with the deep adictive puzzles and gameplay of Wind Waker, this could be one of the greatest games ever. Let's all hope it is. I am also excited about the new fishing minigame in Twilight Princess, only wish they had added it to Wind Waker...

  My Game Idea was stolen!!!

  ***** Hi all, if you are reading this, you are probably a friend of mine, so thanks. Alright, i'll just get to it... *******

  A year or two ago, EA announced it had the exclusive rights to the NFL, So i was hit with a great idea that would save Sega's 'ESPN Football' franchise, when i learned this. Anyway, I went to another website that i used to go to alot, and i wrote in a forum- at said site- this exact idea:

  Game Idea: (Sega can still) Make a football game without the NFL License. Here are the basic gameplay mechanics:

  In this football game, you will be a player in a fictional football league, but all the teams and players can be edited(so you can make your favorite team, or make the entire NFL if you like.). It will be like Grand Theft Auto, Madden NFL and The Sims all mixed into one game. You can be an honest player and be nice to fans and sign autographs for everyone, or you can be an a******, Take Steriods and beat up any fans who come up to you while you are out at diner and ask for autographs.

  There will be mini missions like in GTA(some good and some bad), you can customize your entire house(or mansion) like in The Sims, and the game will have a great football game engine, like in Madden. You can also take control of any player on your team and go out and party, get hookers and blow all your money. Or you can be an honest player, marry the girl of your dreams and have kids, its up to you.... (P.S. i was going to call this game "Live The Game")

  ***** Well, i thought this was a great game idea, but at the website i published this at, i was laughed out of the place, i put an online poll up about wether people would want to play this game, and me and about 3 other guys were the only ones who thought this was a good idea, i had about 12 people put "no, this game sounds dumb", so that was that- but I personally thought Sega would have loved my idea, and i still think i coulda saved ESPN Football with it.

  You can only imagine how upset i was when i read in Electronic Gaming Monthly, that the people who make NFL Blitz are making a game exactly like mine(I believe the words "GTA and Madden", were in this article- not sure). They are calling this game 'Road To Sunday', you may have read about it. I am not the kind of guy who would just make this stuff up, so for proof that this game was my idea before the NFL Blitz guys thought of it(i personally think they went to this website i used to visit and stole my idea), I went back to the website i had originally wrote the idea at... and... Well its a long story, but me and the admin at that website didnt see eye to eye, namely because of political views, but i digress. When i went back to that website, those ******* had erased everything i had ever wrote on that website. It really hurts because when i wrote my idea down, it was a mere days after EA was granted the exclusive NFL rights. It's not about money, its about due respect and credit.

  Long story short, its been a dream of mine since i was little to develope intellectual properties for game makers- and in a sense, i finally have- but nobody will ever know...
