PS2

A famous video game console created by Sony. Well-known for its many, many 3rd party games. This relatively free and unrestricted competition of publishers and developers accompanied by a lack of serious 1st party support has earned this system a reputation synonymous with capitalism.

Most of the games for the PS2 are not produced by Sony. And there are more well-reviewed 3rd party games than 1st party games.

Xbox

A famous video game console created by Microsoft. In its heyday, it had copious 1st and 3rd party support, in the form of game such as Halo: Combat Evolved by in-house developer Bungie Studios, and the GTA series by Rockstar Studios. This balance of developing and publishing power has earned the Xbox a reputation synonymous with socialism.

The Xbox, while having received a bad rap for being a product of Microsoft, was not unsuccessful, spawning the next system, the Xbox 360 in 2005.

GameCube

A famous video game system created by Nintendo. With an all-star line-up of 1st party titles, and a relative lack of 3rd party support, the GameCube was not a popular platform of economic competition, earning it a reputation synonymous communism.

The GameCube is mostly famous for its first party line-up; Metroid, Super Smash Bros, Super Mario, and the Legend of Zelda, among others.

movie game

1. an excuse by a large marketing corporation to capitalize on a source material, usually a movie, decent or not. Usually a piece of garbage so bad that it doesn't even deserve a rental (i.e. most Lucasarts games between 97 and 2003), with few anomalous exceptions (i.e. Revenge of the Sith, Chronicles of Riddick,The Clone Wars, Battlefront). Just as there are movie games that suck, there are also game movies made after excellent games that shame the game/entire series itself (i.e. Doom, Tomb Raider, Bloodrayne), although some times there are movies and games made at the same time based on each other that suck equally (i.e. Aquaman: Battle for Atlantis, Superman 64). For these reasons, companies that commit these horrible deeds have sold less because of the large increase of trusted game reviewers.

person1: Dude, did you hear the review for that Chronicles of Riddick movie game?

person2: Yeah, that was a big surprise.

Carrier

One of the best units to play a no rush game (a game where you wait 5-20 mins before attacking, in contrast to all the little babyback n00bs who zerg the crap out of you early on) with in StarCraft on Battle.net, especially when used with Arbiters, the greatest free online gaming service that has been around for more than 10 years.

person1: dudes, i'm sending Arbiters to the last base, bring the Carriers, Guardians, and Battlecruisers to the warp point!

...30 seconds later: Opponent: HOLY MOTHER OF!--*player gets crap owned out of him...

any game or movie or book advertised in more than 3 of the conventional forms of media (i.e. magazines, internet, tv) so much that major plot and gameplay points are exposed before the general release, or any game advertised on the 3 media+ food and beverage products at a high frequency.

person1: Dude, did you see the summer 2004-spring-2005 issues of Xbox Magazine? Halo 2 was such an ad whore!

STD

A dude who's a total dick to everyone not like him, and basically the semen used to impregnate his prostitute mother was infected with a sexually transmitted DNA retrovirus that alters the DNA of diploid cells shortly before meiosis begins. Thus, it's perfectly ok to execute him for being a crime against humanity because, technically, he's not a human, and he must be removed from the gene pool ASAP.

-That guy's a total STD.
