I dont think anything Bear Grylls is doing is fake, or that he is overly macho. Yes, sometimes he's not THAT far away from civilization, but remember that he is showing how to handle a dangerous situation. Of all the survivor shows his is by far the most entertaining one and yes, perhaps you shouldn't jump down a waterfall or into ice cold water, however, he is simply showing how to survive should it happen. He is not alone, but then again he has to have people with him to film and document his progress, instead of just moving cameras around by himslf and playing harmonica. The things Bear Grylls eat is again something for a 'worst case' scenario and that antilope he was allowed to eat just to show what can and sometimes has to be done in order to pull through. Wether it be making a fire or a raft or a place to lay your head after a long day in the jungle, Bear Grylls definately teaches people something about surviving.

Being disconnected is one thing, but loosing points aswell?! We quite mad with Nintendo right now for throwing us out of a ongoing game during it's second lap, just to find out that I lost over a hundred points when I re-connect...

In Nintendo's own words:

Introducing... Wii.
As in "we."
While the code-name Revolution expressed our direction, Wii represents the answer. Wii will break down that wall that seperates videogame players from everybody else. Wii will put people more in touch with their games... and each other. But you're probably asking: What does the name mean?
Wii sounds like "we," which emphasizes the console is for everyone. Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii.
Wii has a distinctive "ii" spelling that symbolizes both the unique controllers and the image of people playing it. And Wii, as a name and a console, brings something revolutionary to the world of videogames that sets it apart from the crowd.
So that's Wii. But now Nintendo needs you. Because it's really not about you or me. It's about Wii. And together, Wii will change everything.

There ya go....

I don't get it. What exactly did you do on your own? The music? The editing? I don't know, I just don't understand these things... I mean, what does one get out of it? Also, I didn't notice any red thread throughout the whole thing. Mayby it's just me...

Have you seen the English cast? Of COURSE I'm getting it! Barret and Cid speaking Japanese just isn't right...gill9221

Isn't right? How about this: they was speaking japanese since they was born, right? Mother of God! English? Nonono, that won't do...
