    That moment that killed the game.

    For me it was in the original Crysis, when you meet with the aliens. Loved the game up until then, but because of that I've not been able to play it. That being said I have played the last crysis games and enjoyed them. Just not the first. It just felt so out of place, and the controls were...

    Terrible Movies in Your Collection?

    I've bought a few 'it's not good, but it's not terrible' either. There's only one film I've not been able to sit through, and that's 'Zombies zombies zombies'. I usually like zombie films, but that...that...ugh. Tried to watch it with my brother, who also assured me it wouldn't be THAT bad. I...

    A Poly relationship

    Hypothetically would I? Yes. It would certainly be something I would want to try out. It seems like it would be a lot more convenient for everyone involved, and may open up a lot more interesting ideas for fun time, no? ;D In reality? It would depend on a number of factors. I said I would...

    Remove one game from existence

    Fallout: New vegas. Was just miles behind Fallout 3, it's only redeeming thing was the DLC Old World Blues, which I suppose was worht the money, but when I finished that, I just felt incredibly bored by going back to the dead landscape with unlikable characters. I am aware that it may not be...

    Poll: Did you build your own computer?

    Technically? No. I chose the parts for it from a website, and they built it for me (£700ish for top-of-the-range computer at the time). I could have, but my father and brother both said it wasn't worth my time enough that I couldn't be bothered to try and find places to buy the parts from for...

    mIRC scripting...

    Right, I'm a complete novice at scripting in mIRC, and have looked at a few websites for some help on what I want; a few of them gave some code, which I tried to use, but none of them seemed to work. What i wanted to do is (I believe) fairly simple; to take a random line from a text file and...

    Grinding

    I'd say grinding is doing one activity in a video game over and over for a benifit other than enjoyment or (direct) story advancement (by that I mean being a higher level doesn't affect your ability to beat a boss, but your strength stat would, and leveling up increases strength, so it...

    Picking a Career

    Yup. I'm 22 and up until very recently I had no clue what I wanted to do, still not sure if it will work out, but thankfully I had really supportive parents (well, I think they were starting to get annoyed). One thing I'd suggest you do; try things out. Email places, email people, ask if you...

    Cyberlink Power DVD 10

    Right, just a quick rant about cyberlink - despite my parents having paid for the program (so it's theirs, technically, and I'm using my bluray disks in their computer) I am apparantly unable to watch something I've already watched on said cyberlink program. This isn't the first time this has...

    Valve's Making Up Half-Life Along the Way

    Maybe I'm misremembering, but wasn't G-man originally nameless (or maybe not nameless, but just not 'g-man') and (I think this is the case) that the players called him g-man for 'government man'. I don't ever remember seeing a black mesa logo on his briefcase, but I wasn't paying too much...

    Aim-Down-Sight is unnecessary for realism

    I don't know if anyone has said this yet, mostly because I can't be bothered to read 9 or so pages, I read the first part of the first page awhile ago and it did seem like the OP was in the wrong. Even if he wasn't, so what? Realism =/= fun game. Therefore ADS =/= fun game. Sure, it CAN...

    Hitler Was Inside Me As Child

    Didn't everyone do that when they were young? Well, bar the people playing with barbies and pretending to be cooking at poor-quality plastic representations of stoves (or one of those old products that 'baked' products with a lightbulb, or something, can't reember the name). I digress though...

    Who else doesn't want to sleep tonight?

    How about wear earplugs whilst you sleep? Or earmuffs or something? I suppose you could go the whole hog and wear a dust mask too, or just sleep in one of those enviromentally controlled beds that have a plastic tent around it and has a zip to get in and out. Also: 100th post.

    The best hat (No not the tf2 kind I'm talking about real ones)

    Pfft, despite the original post, you all manage to be wrong. The best hat is the propeller hat. http://0.tqn.com/d/webclipart/1/0/E/t/4/Airplane-Hat.png

    An Olympic Gymnastics Suggestion

    I like watching the pommel horse, it's great to see people try to out perform others, and do some stuff that obviously takes a lot of strength and stamina to do. I would request that we get rid of floor routines, or replace them with tightrope routines. It would also be good to have elephants...
