This was my favorite quotation from the article:

"Many game characters now come with complex background stories not seen in the likes of Mario Brothers or Donkey Kong."

You're joking? Really?

OT I read from Tomb Raider link in USA today that Angelina Jolie is the daughter of Jon Voight. Weird. And anyway, are her lips collagen or real? shes still hot to me, collagen or not.

etc

Bruce -- yeah, that was a lame quote, although I'm pretty sure that Donkey Kong may have been snuck in by Tolstoy into War and Peace near the end. He knew that no one would actually finish that book.

(Why doesn't the mainstream press produce better writing? I don't expect them to know computer games like we do, but they shouldn't let passages like the one you quote slip by.)

mtKafka, yeah, Jolie's pretty hot. Just ask her brother about her. :)

The movie might be ok. The trailers looked like the movie had nice production values and wasn't just a cheesy quickie. If they really can make it a female Indiana Jones, I'll enjoy it.

Did Jolie REALLY give her brother a full on kiss or was this yet another Hollywood gossip/rumour ?

Tom knows more about it than me. I just find it amusing.

It happened during the Academy Awards last year in full sight of all 800 billion or however many people who watch the thing on TV. I kinda wish I was Angelina Jolie's brother. Is that sick?
