The potato smiley face things! Those are excellent!
@Killer: They don't work when I'm typing a reply. Otherwise they work correctly.
On a random note, I went to the local thrift store yesterday and ended up getting the The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings trilogy (the books), as well as Dragon Quest VIII (I would have gotten the copy of Ico they had there, but I'll be getting the HD version with Shadow of the Colossus), for $2.50. Brilliance.
Sirea obtained the title of "SiFi Channel"! "But I don't even get that channel!"

So later on you'll be getting Shadow of the Colossus? Awesome. I had the game for a few years....can't beat it. I'm stuck on this annoying colossus
that is the smallest of them, but its a lizard colossus, so it can climb up the Colosseum he is inside and shoot some type of poison blast that turns into a cloud, that cloud will go through some of the broken walls, which all of them are, and occasionally he will shoot arrows at you. Generally he is supposed to be the easiest, but I am having trouble getting to the floor of the Colosseum when I shoot him of the wall to stab him in the stomach and tail. I tried staying on the lower floors so I can just jump off onto the colossus gladiator style, but he always will roll over after a few small hits and not a great stab.
I've actually got to sit on my butt and watch the extended version of the Lord of the Rings movies one time. xd
Ah, The Hobbit. I've never read the book, but I once had the animated movie of it.

@Killer: Naturally! I'm a believer in "games as art". A good story is as good, if not better, in a game as in anything else.
@Sirea: Ah, the animated movie. I haven't seen it, but I read the little book version of it when I was a kid. Yep, the kid's book adaptation of a movie based on the book. Yiiiiinteresting (a more yinteresting way to say interesting. I sometimes say it that way for some reason.).

Ah the Hobbit.
Ha, I got the PS2 game for the hobbit, and I tried to read one of the books. Bored of that. How frustrated I would get with that game. You have to be 10000000% accurate with your jumps or you fall. Man it sucks having to re-climb, re-travel, re-jump EVERYTHING!!!!!! Especially with the Giants bit, you have to hide while jumping, while staying on the path of the mountain. Took me an hour.
Almost as troublesome as The Harry Potter late PS2 game. O_O THE POTIONS CLASS! THE FRICKEN POTIONS CLASS!
I didn't know there was a video game for The Hobbit, though I know that there was one for LOTR: The Two Towers. As far as the books go, I've only read the book to The Fellowship of the Ring. xd
Oh! There's finally going to be a live-action movie for The Hobbit. 3nodding
