Good find Mick. Soldier Blade is an absolutely awesome shooter. Only played it on Virtual Console so far though. Hope to get a Turbo sometime in the future because I'm having a lot of fun with its games.

What the ef is that MD game?

I hope they remembered to tack on an ending to No Country For Old Men. The version of the movie I saw didn't have an ending at all! It just cut to credits when Tommy Lee Jones was talking about something boring, like one of his dreams or something. All Tommy Lee Jones scenes should be cut from that movie.

It's Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon.

[Iron Lizard]

Phantasy Star II $15 a bit to much but in good shape
Land Stalker only $8
Both look like brand new.

Well, SOMEONE didn't understand the movie....:P

[Joe Redifer]

I understood the movie. It's hardly confusing. It just didn't have an ending, and all the Tommy Lee Jones scenes could easily be deleted. The movie should have ended with the bad guy walking away after the car wreck. Tommy Lee Jones' character was a waste of everyone's time, though I have heard some morons try to say that he is the focal point of the movie. I think only the pretentious types will look at his scenes and his babbling about his dream as "symbolic" or "important to the movie" or "entertaining".

EDIT: The scene with the Man of Many Cats was perhaps one of the most retarded in all cinema history. A scene of someone mowing their lawn would have been more entertaining... and relevant. The movie is like a giant snooze alarm. The action and violence wake you up, but then a Tommy Lee Jones scene comes and puts you to sleep again. Then another scene which is actually entertaining to wake you up and back and forth and back and forth. This is the perfect analogy of that movie.

Eh, more or less I meant the symbolism that everyone was supposedly to be. Tommy Lee Jones is good, while Javier Bardem is evil. Javier represents a series of killings (not necessarily all of the killings were him) , and Tommy is supposed to be how good tries to solve the crimes and overcome it, but he is just too slow and old, and violence and evil wins.
