The Neo Geo is an awesome little unit, some awesome games for it uh, either your joking, or you don't know what an Atari Lynx is the Lynx is just about on the bottom for portable systems, so yeah, the N-gage should be a bit better than the Lynx. After owning almost every single portable system, I can safely say the DS is the MOST fun I have ever had with a portable system, I actually play it at home, as opposed to the system "filling in" for the time I'm away from my home systems

OK, last time I saw the N-Gage, the Atari Lynx had it not just beaten, but destroyed, and thats pretty damn sad I just went and took a look online, and it looks like they have some decent games but not as good as a DS or even a PSP, or even a GBA that said, if its a gaming PHONE your after, then the N-Gage looks great!

Uh the Ds is better than the N-Gage, by a good margin, and it only cost $130 I recently bought a psp, and there is a extreme lack of good titles for it, but I use it for other things, I burn my DVD's down and put them on my memory card, so I can watch any movie I already own on my PSP, (which is legal, BTW, as long as you already OWN the DVD) also I have quite a few mp3's on it, its no IPOD but it does the job for me and lastly Burnout, that game is quite good on the PSP, and thank GOD because the DS version is terrible, the people responsible should be held accountable, having them play thier own creation for eternity should suffice

Against Leather and Animal Testing !!!!

Very interesting stuff here, and thanks for posting. I personally try to evaluate ever view point that I possibly can. I read books of different view points, watch videos with different views, magazine articles etc. I do that with just about everything - politics, animals, how to paint a house, how to throw a bowling ball, whatever. I understand your point on that, and I really do think that people should try to understand other peoples opinions instead of just telling them what is right and what is wrong when they are only taking their side into account. As far as PETA killing animals, that is a very over blown thing in my opinion. The only reason PETA would choose to kill an animal would be if it is the most humane thing to do. Yes, PETA does kill animals, but they do it in the most humane way that they can, and only if it is the "right" thing to do. If a dog is severly crippled and the is little to no chance of saving it, they will be put to sleep. If a deer is hit by a car and suffering on the side of the road, instead of prolonging its suffering, something should be done and the body should be disposed of. Somethimes it is just the right thing to do to prevent an animal from either suffering or just plain having a terrible life. PETA has given money to the very extreme animal rights activists in places like the UK. I believe it is something that they are trying to get away from now because they kind of want to improve their image in terms of that kind of stuff. PETA does protest organizations like the March of Dimes and other organizations because of their testing on animals. I know there have been long debates about this in the past pages of this thread about saving human lives, but animal testing, in my opinion, is not the way to do it. Besides, I have already stated my case about how things like heart disease, cancer and other diseases could be prevented before they even start. I also have a problem with the way PETA acts sometimes, as I have also stated. Some things I don't agree with, but others I think are warrented. However, they certainly aren't the ones that are going out and blowing things up. They do things like nude protests (which I don't agree with) and they try not to disturb the peace the best they can. I'm personally not a protesting kind of person. I have done it before, but I do my absolute best to do it legally. You can protest and not look like a total ass, even though there are people that believe otherwise. I think that people will listen if you talk to them rationally and give them the facts upfront. PETA believes, in most cases, that attention has to be brought to them, but then they get bad press for it and get and image like the crazy bag lady down the street that hangs out a Turkey Hill. I think their overall messages are great, and if you really take the time to sit and read the literature that they have, it is exceptional and very informative and well laid out. I just think that more people would be open to their messages if they didn't do "extreme" things. I will stick to my letter writing and such and see how it all works. WOW, thanks for a intelligent response. With Peta Killing animals, I was just trying to make a point, if those disgusting videos are to be believed, then the other has to be taken into account as well Again, I do like some of the messages of PETA, but realy have a great distaste for thier tactics, for example, the recent Beyonce thing As for the vegitarian debate, http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a3_087.html I think that is the REAL truth, we are certainly made to eat meat, but you can survive without NOWADAYS -

I have read this whole thread, and it is VERY intresting to me here are my opinions PETA is an extreme orginazation, who's tactics aim to shock people into believing that the cruelty witnessed is the norm, and not the exception. If Peta's videos are to be believed, then so are the other extreme sites like Peta sucks and Peta Kills animals http://www.petakillsanimals.com/petaVictims.cfm Obviously this is a very personal choice, but before anyone makes a jump to support an orginazation like Peta, look outside thier websites to see what they actually do, for example Fund Domestic Terrorist Groups Protest and smear orginazations like the March or Dimes, American Red Cross, and the American Heart Association I think some of the basic ideals behind Peta, like try to abolish animal cruelty, are great, but I have a very big problem with how they go about thier business Its sorta like those crazy people who like to blow up abortion clinics, same tactics, diffrent cause -
HMM, seems about right, Elissa saw Robb, and tried to kill it.

LMFAO, thanks that made me chuckle after a long full day -
yeah I heard some bad BAD things about the DS version of Burnout, and it didn't have to be that bad, if they would have put just a bit of effort into the game it could have been good the PSP version is pretty good, and is the version i bought Nice reviews, and a good idea, BTW

Well for the U.S. I think we kinda created the mess, so it IS our responsibility to help turn the area into a at least livable country no matter the means or who is at fault, if you f$%@ up, clean up your mess Again, if anyone is to blame is is the public, for our "lets get those bastards mentality", and the whole of the goverment for listening to us, although it did help thier standings in the polls at the time
-
Well to be fair, if only 12 democrats voted for the withdrawl, not all democrats are "defeatist wanting to abandon Iraq before the mission is complete" In reality the war has become much less of a war, and more of a political tool for both sides to use against each other, and it sickens me there is truth on both sides, the reality is always somewhere in the middle, If Bush was so satanically evil, the Democrats would have loved to burn him at the stake, that said, if the war was going totally awesome we wouldn't have genuine concerns as open minded citizens I emplore everyone not to go with partison politics, but to think for yourself GOD I HATE POLITICS

I agree, and JIF is my favorite The reason this will be closed is quite simple there are people who are VERY close minded, have made up thier mind, and won't listen or respect other peoples opinions Just because you believe in your heart something is morally wrong, doesn't mean someone else cannot believe it is right, that it what makes this country awesome this is a VERY old argument

Well since its new It is actually real, I snapped the pic as we were driving, I had a hard time as I could not believe a church would actually put this up

Hmm, I sense a closing not voting
