The sequel to Kevin Smith's classic 1994 Indie film about a day in the life of 2 convenience store clerks. This movie find our characters, Dante and Randal, working for the fast-food chain "Moobys" after Randal leaves the coffee pot on at the Quick Stop, torching the entire building. Where the original movie was a classic in the Indie scene, Clerks II takes a step away from the Independent classic that spawned it and turns into a full-blown comedy which, surprisingly, is full of laughs and heart.

StarCraft II is a sequel to the popular real-time strategy game StarCraft. It was announced on May 19, 2007, at the Blizzard Worldwide Invitational in Seoul, South Korea. StarCraft II is being developed for concurrent release on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Mac OS X. It has been stated that development on the game began in 2003, shortly after Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne was released. Blizzard has not announced a release date, but they have stated that it will not be released in 2007. The game development is in the pre-alpha stages and is "very far along" and can be played in multiplayer mode with all three races.
StarCraft II will feature the three races of the original game — Protoss, Terran, and Zerg. It has been announced that these will be the only races in the game. In addition, the replay function has been greatly improved. Blizzard is also planning to broadcast StarCraft II multiplayer matches in North America.
According to its creators, StarCraft II is designed to be the "ultimate competitive real-time strategy game", and as such, it focuses more heavily on the multiplayer aspect when compared to the original StarCraft. The changes includes overall improvements in Battle.net, new matchmaking mechanics, and a new ladder system.

My level 78 Barbarian just died because b.net was lagging and it wouldn't let me move out of the fire he was standing in.

A sophisticated, open world game based in the 1930's up to the early 50's. This game is a first person shooter featuring Vito Scaletta, who used to serve in the army. When he comes back, his old pal Joe pulls some strings and this turns in to Vito joining the Mafia. The game features Vito, Joe and the other mobs as they battle it out to gain power of the city of Empire Bay. While the game was rated a 7 (good) on IGN, the game held my interest for a long enough period of time to beat the game. The game only had 25 Missions (called 'chapters') but many of them required replays due to difficulty. Overall I recommend this game to mafia fanatics.

Man this turned out to be chicken soup for the d2 gamers soul! I apologize for my rambling; I had much to say.
Diablo II is an RPG that is set in medieval times -think Robin Hood- but with spells, demons and such. This game has a good feeling, especially when you start on single player. You get the storyline, appreciate what everything looks like and you don't worry about strategies; you just have fun playing the game. It has good replay value, because of the different classes and especially because of the extensive inventory database and new maps each time you restart a saved game.
It is a good concept, and few appreciate it and realize what it is.
Now, for my two cents about online play, and those who are about to take that plunge. I hope it isn't too late.
Now, first of all I would like to call out those who are bashing people for liking this game, or any video games. It's a hobby, just like anything else. If playing video games is a waste of time, then so are sports, watching TV and buying earrings/makeup/excess footwear/etc. So please respect other degenerates for their choices.
Now, moving on. I recommend not starting online play until after beating the game once in single player. To be quite honest, when I started playing this game, my grades in school were very good. Diablo also got me interested in mythology and I started playing it because of its theme. Then I started playing online and my grades didnt drop, but I was getting overly frustrated when someone pked, stole from or annoyed me. My advice to anyone who gets angry when something happens to them in this game is to STOP PLAYING for two days, and do something productive/fun. People who "don't have lives" do not exist. Everybody has a life, they just put it off sometimes for reasons that they have a right to keep to themselves. Here's what I did: I beat the game in Hell, made a good build (that I looked up and tweaked a little) and started a low level dueler lld. Level 30. I made other characters, but didnt follow any specific strategy because see... I use diablo 2 as my DOWN TIME.
Now, for those who are quitting... more power to you. I'm quitting in a couple days, taking a screenshot of my account... just so I can say "nah it wasn't a waste of time, it was fun". If I ever get a deadly urge, like its an addiction, then I'll switch to nezmod a fun looking mod that i'll play around with for awhile.
That's my advice to anyone who wants to play this game without letting it hurt your life. If you don't lead an exciting life, well hey... at least you don't play with fire or do stupid stunts that can get your face blown off.
Just for the record--- my friend Frank played diablo; he was fast paced, made an 81 necromancer, an 86 hammer paladin and a 90 elemental druid. He quit shortly after. He's a jock who practices capoeira and gets laid twice a week. J/K but he does live life. So I'm not just preaching, anyone can do it. Video games are for down time and there should be breaks between periods when playing. I learned this the hard way by losing sleep for one night, and not getting any more for the rest of the week because I had to travel. I was like "Oh yeah, real life, I remember now!" :P but seriously, calling gamers nerds is both innacurate and unnecessarily mean.
By the way this is my first time writing a definition, hiya! I'm new to this site. I was looking up concepts and learning lots of stuff... bah who cares!
gee this turned out to be pretty irrelevant but I hope it's helpful.
You give me a thumb down, I give you a finger up.

The sequel-song (In Reload) to metallica's "The Unforgiven".
The music video itself portrays a teen who has his hand and wrist stuck in a huge wall of stone standing by a cliff. At the end of the video, he sees the "Love" of his life, buries a key in her, and calls her unforgiven.
A somewhat good song IMO, at the same time one of the most saddening songs I've heard. Apparently, it deals with love itself, and in James Hetfield's case, "Forgiving no one and ending up alone."

Dude1: Dude, did you hear the Unforgiven II yet?
Dude2: Yeah. It reminded me of when I broke up with my Girlfriend. :(

An extremely good mix between challenging and fun. Also a great sequel to the ever-popular video game, Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy.
