1. Uwe Boll. He has not made a single non-crappy movie (Bloodrayne, Alone in the Dark, Blackwoods), yet he still is getting a ton of money and is directing a new film, called Dungeon Siege.
2. When people call the Xbox 360 the "Dreamcast 2". I'm not a big fan of the 360, but still, there will never be a console as crappy as the Dreamcast. The 360 already has some awesome exclusive games (Dead Rising), which the DC did not have.
3. When people buy an IPod so they can look cool carrying it around. You know who you are.
4. When people say that they are going to buy a 360 because the PS3 is too expensive. If you want the HD-DVD drive, its another $200 plus $50 a year online.
5. When reviewers say that games are too short, yet it takes more than 10 hours to finish them. One critic even said "...Grandia III clocks in only at about 35 hours long, which is a disappointment..." Am I the only one who likes 10-15 hour games?
6. When game developers feel that their levels look empty, so they throw in tons of unbreakable, unmoveable boxes!
7. Escort Missions. There have only been a handful of good ones ever thanks to your escortee running off or directly into your line of fire.
8. How there are "Fantasy Football Experts" on ESPN. Ooh, I'm a fantasy football expert, so sign me up so I can be on national TV, make millions of dollars, and be wrong most of the time!
9. When people say that they were disappointed by a crappy movie based game. Only a few good movie based games (Chronicals of Riddick, Spiderman 2) were ever made. How can you have high expectations for Da Vinci Code or Monster House the game?!
10. When I run out of toilet paper. You know, that last person just "forgot" to change the roll and now you have nothing to wipe yourself with after you make a massive explosion.
There will be more of these things that piss me off next week or so.

I think the length of a game at 35 hours is actually really good since most are only like 10.
Unbreakable = boo
MGS and RE4 have great escort missions, but most are just bleh.
Fantasy is fantsy, even if it's football, there's no such thing as an expert at that thing.
Goldeneye and Riddick were the only truly great movie to game conversions I ever liked all others = lame, even the King Kong game...it's lame.
Running out of toilet paper really sucks, people should have to courtesy to change it if it's running out. I hate having to shout for toilet paper...it sucks...
you dont have to buy the HD DVD Drive to play in HD
Xbox LIVE is the best online for consoles (way better than playstation's online) and worth the money

1. I hate Uwe Boll too, but I hope Dungeon Siege sucks. I never really liked that series.
7. The only good ones I can think of are RE4 and MGS2.
8. I totally agree. I also hate how there's poker on ESPN. You shouldn't have it on the sports channel if it's not a sport.
10. Yeah, I hate that. We usually always have an extra roll in the bathroom so we don't run into those situations as often.
