Flannel Boy · « **Reply #8 on:** April 09, 2007, 10:26:44 PM »

Yeah, but the Greeks are better storytellers.

Aw, come on. Can we at least agree they're both better than Egyptian mythology and Catholicism?

Without greek mythos there would be no Kevin Sorbo or Lucy Lawless.

So true. Demi knows the score.

Also, another reason why Norse mythology can't be better than Greek is because the Norse Gods were a bunch of pansies. They actually were able to get killed, unlike the Greek Gods, who were probably as strong as Superman.

Not to mention, as long as Demi brought it up, that Hercules: The Legendary Journeys started sucking when they made that stupid episode with him and Thor. COINCIDENCE?

The Norse pantheon weren't dicking each other over all the time like an episode of Melrose Place.

TITAN QUEST

VALKYRIE PROFILE

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #15 on:** April 09, 2007, 11:02:02 PM »

Valkyrie Profile 2 is fucking orgasmic, I started a second play through. Its so excellent.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #16 on:** April 09, 2007, 11:04:14 PM »

norse, maybe. they had a goddess who fed the roots of the world tree with the river of menstruation that flowed from her gargantuan spread legs. that's just rad.

on the other hand, the greek gods loved orgies. it's a tough call.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #17 on:** April 09, 2007, 11:05:22 PM »

Valkyries rock, but God of War and Titan Quest show you just how hardcore the greek gods can be.

xnikki118x · « **Reply #18 on:** April 10, 2007, 03:26:02 AM »

I thought Greek and Roman mythology were the only kinds. :x

I don't know about that

She put her hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workmen's hammer; and with the hammer she smote Sisera, she smote off his head, when she had pierced and stricken through his temples.

Viking Mythology ftw.

Valhalla

The most beautiful mansion in Asgard, where the heroes slain in battle feasted each night with Odin on the boar Schrimnir and mead from the goat Heldrun. The heroes rode out each morning and fought one another until they were cut to pieces; they recovered from their wounds each evening.

I mean even their concept of heaven involves gutting each other. Now that's hardcore!

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #26 on:** April 11, 2007, 10:50:55 AM »

Egyptian mythology is just weird. Greek mythology rocks cause its about gods cutting off other gods balls and gods tricking other gods to eat rocks wrapped up like babies and weird invisible helmets n shit omg

Himu · « **Reply #27 on:** April 11, 2007, 10:55:18 AM »

Beowulf > Greek mythos

FACT

I love mythology from all over the world: Egyptian, Norse, Greek, Japanese..I just recently got into Chinese mythology too. I have read Journey to the West and things involving Tao (Dao)- ism. Shit is really really interesting.

My problem with Chinese myths is that there's so much shit and I get confused and I don't know what the FUCK TO READ.

Anyways, Norse > *

Thor mother fuckers. Loki bitches. Fraye? Fuck me in the ass. Unf unf unf!

Beowulf <3
