lol IN 2011 two years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also some of those deadly sugar substitutes also are involved. It;s like using poison to replace the pesticides you were already drinkig. With Mio and all that other stuff being introduce, and all flavored beverages and some other fruit drinks using acesflame which is just as bad if not worse than HFCS

[citation needed]

What's your proof that all this stuff is incredibly bad? Since I'm a chemistry teacher, I'm on top of most of these topics. There is suggestion that some of the artifical sweeteners might trick the body into needing more carbohydrates, but that's preliminary. All the artificial sweeteners are considered safe.

So what are your sources for you rantings?

http://health.howstuffworks.com/wellness/food-nutrition/facts/artificial-sweetners-unhealthy-eco.htm and http://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/artificial-sweeteners-sugar-free-but-at-what-cost-201207165030 among others, but if you have something that shows they are safe than please go ahead, although it does;t change the fact HFCS has taken over the market but I would like more information.

Ok, so the top movie making money is: Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters Which happened to do quite well and still is and has the number one spot. >Wreck-It Ralph went from 18th to 23rd, losing -43.8% of last weeks profits, and lost -724 in theater count. >Skyfall Only lost -18.4% of last weeks profit and only lost 51 in theater count from last week. Falling from 20 to 22nd. >Twilgith Saga BD2 Only lost -33.9% of last weeks profit, and only lost 90 of it's theater audience from last week. not dying fast enough. falling from 27 to 31 >Rise of the Guardians Lost -33.8% of last weeks profits and lost 169 of it's audience from last week. falling from 23 to 27. >19 movies made it past the "Gold" point of $1,000,000 dollars made. >Only 24 movies made it past the profit point (gaining at least more than $500,000) _______ Top 5 movies this weekend are: 1.Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters(made:$19,690,956, ) 2.Mama:made: $13,088,145, lost -53.9%of it's profit from last week (ow) but gained 35 in audience.) 3.Zero Dark Thirty(made $9,700,132, lost -38.6% of last weeks profit, lost 17 audience in theaters.) 4.Silver Lining Playbook(made $9,444,039, lost -12.2% of it's profit from last week, but gained 118 i audience) 5.Parker(made $7,008,222) __________ Overall, Paramount and Universal Studios had the most profit numbers significantly higher than the competition with their top 2 movies. http://boxofficemojo.com/weekend/chart/ Overall, i would say that this was a most unbalanced weekend.

Recently ( and yes they are using official japanese numbers since they have no other way to get japanese sales figures and can't guess.) Blops!! has made it in the top 10 out of nowhere after slagging back for two weeks in a row. http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41287/Japan/ In the above week Blops! with 12,163 units! outsold out of nowhere: New Super Mario Bros. U 12,155 Nintendo Land 11,693 Yakuza 5 8,934 Mario Kart 7 8,397 PKMN Mystery Dungeon 6,380 PKMN Blk/wht 2 6,367 Professor Layton vs. Ace Attornry 6,193 Monter Hunter Tri(wii u) 5,713 Super mario 3D Land 5,510 Bunping them to close to 400,000 sold. THE MOST CURRENT WEEKLY RESULTS BlopsII went from number 9 to number 9 still holding the top 10 still holding 10,315 units and still outselling all of the games mentioned above again as well as more: NSMBU 9,469 Fist of north star 2 9,289 Nintendo Land 8,825 Mario Kart 7 7,413 Yakuza 5 5,966 PKMN blk/white 2 5,729 PKMN mystery dungeon 5,198 SM3D land: 4,565 and other way below the 30 mark. Now before some people say such things as: Well certain series X has sold so much so everyone already has it. May i remind you of the following games: Animal Crossing has sold 98,186 making the series over 2 million units sold in total. 98,186 is just the recent week and is close to outselling all the "popular Mario titles by itself. Also, Digimon Adventure dominated with 47,036 and it practically just came out., Monster Hunter Tri(3ds) is still going strong at 12,638 the recent week, which it seems the Wii U version is getting none of its momentum. Sticker star barely BARELY beat 10,634 . So Blops II is getting quite popular in Japan as the weeks before BlopsII was not even on the radar. So this random domination must mean something, it means that Japan has no interest in anything but the 3DS and PS3 (Well 360 DMC did well.) But also that the loyalty to Nintendos games outside of Animal Crossing has diminished.

[QUOTE="TheTolemac"][QUOTE="SonOfChewbacca"]

First Person Adventure.

SonOfChewbacca

So are Half-Life series and unreal also First-Person Adventure?

HL and Unreal are FPS games, and are classified as such. Prime is a First Person Adventure, and Nintendo officially classifies it as one.

Nintendo classifies it as a First-Person action game, and if Bioshock and system shock are FPS games than so is Metroid prime. Emerald Warrior you should try systemshock.

didn't 3ds sales struggled just when it launched?Tessellation
>But got a price drop and was able to secure more games since the drowned the Wii for 2 years before it. 3Ds eventually got out of it's price cut loss. >The Wii U is selling at a loss fully, and they need to even out games on both Wii u and 3DS. The Wii U will not get a price drop unless Nintendo can do some kind of scame that will get them to sell it at less but get more. After that last financial loss posted in 2011 that was pretty much 30% of the companies profit, they are not going to try and let that happen again.

It's a first-person shooter, no doubt about that. It's just not your average first-person shooter. It focuses more on exploration and game immersion than it does trigger-finger action like most first-person shooters.

Emerald_Warrior
Like Bioshock and System Shock right?
