| Ehh....
You know, for an old game, I still find Age of Mythology to be very fun. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| Nope. :0 Well, if you mean the "Age of" series then yeah, a few.
Age of Empires I Age of Empires II Age of Mythology Age of Mythology Titans Expansion
I think there might have been an AoE III, but I don't know. I only owned those four. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| I see. Still, that's a crap way to spend a Friday... though admittedly, I think it might be kind of fun to spend a night at work with no one around. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| No boss around? I mean really, you can do whatever you want. Sure, you have your work to get done, but you can play music out loud and prop your feet on your desk if you feel like it. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| The first one was all right. I enjoyed the book more, though I did like the additional subplot of Seneca Crane in the movie.
The second one is a surprisingly faithful adaption. In a way, I sort of enjoyed the movie more than the book because it didn't harp on the Team Peeta vs Team Gale aspect. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| ....he's introduced in the first book and movie. In both cases, he has a pretty minor role though, given that most of it takes place in the Capital and he's back in District 12. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| Well, it's prevalent in both mediums. It's just played up more in the books due to it being from her point of view, thus allowing much more reflection on her feelings.
I wouldn't mind it so much (cliché as it maybe) if I actually found it compelling. But I like Peeta a lot, whereas Gale is just kind of a douche... _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| Neither did the book really. It's in the second book/movie that this stuff kind of comes out.
Did you read the books? _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| nope. : o one of my friends who had read them told me not to. he said for once, he'd rather watch a movie than read the book.
apparently, the writer's style didn't sit well with him. | |

| I enjoyed both. Honestly, why take his advice? People enjoy different styles and mediums. It all comes down to taste.
Collins' style isn't anything exceptional, but I don't think you can really get a feel for what it's like to be in the Games unless you read the book. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |
