    Bahamut Lagoon: A Retro Review

    I remember playing through that during the course of a high school cs class. Good game, good review.

    What is the saddest book you've ever read?

    Most recently "The Idiot" by Dostoevsky. Also "Armageddon in Retrospect" by Vonnegut, though that was more sadness for his passing.

    Poll: Average age of TheEscapist forumgoers...

    22, my first system was the commodore 64. http://www.classiccmp.org/dunfield/c64/h/complete.jpg I still use that monitor to this very day. It currently has a PS2 and a gamecube hooked up to it. The thing is a beast.

    Good causes, but badly representated

    Discussions are good opportunities for learning, people who don't know much about a topic should be encouraged to participate. Even if they do not argue the point well it still shows a desire to participate and, perhaps, to edify themselves. If you want to have a more nuanced conversation on...

    Poll: Smoking-Cool or Not?

    I imagine so, otherwise why would people do it? Or at least start it. Sure, you may come to enjoy it, but you probably started it because you had friends who were doing it and you took it up either out of curiosity or the desire to fit in and look mature or badass or cool or whatever. Or...

    ask a cop/jailer

    If two cars are both speeding one behind the other, would you ticket the guy in back or the leader? Or would there be some way to ticket both?

    Old zombies or new 'running' zombies?

    Slow = Dread, Fast = Shock. Depends on what you're in the mood for.

    Favourite Star Trek captain?

    It's Picard. Why is there even a debate?

    Pushing Daisies is cancelled...

    That's a real shame. It was sometimes too cute for its own good, but overall well done and creative. They seemed to do better in the second season about creating greater story arcs to encourage return viewers, but by that time I guess it was already too late. Brian Fuller sure knows how to...

    Good SRPGs

    Jagged Alliance 1&2, Battle for Wesnoth (Open Source, a lot of fun), Fallout Tactics...there are probably others. Those are all for PC.

    FO3..Mutant Dogmeat...

    It's like a post-apocalyptic 'Homeward Bound'

    Fallout 3 (My arena piece)

    I think it would be more inline with Gonzo to write about playing the game and becoming immersed. This is borderline fan fiction. Interesting though.

    If Jesus came back, what game would he play?

    Sacrifice. For obvious reasons.

    Most embarrassing fear?

    Nobody ever suspects the butterfly... I'm afraid of heights, which is inconvenient as I'm a fan of rock climbing. I'll be fine for awhile and then suddenly get an intense bout of vertigo. Happened once on a scissor lift when I was delimbing a tree, almost murdered myself. Also, large...

    Vegetarians

    Most of the hate is directed towards the moral vegetarians and understandably so. They take a ritual deeply ingrained into the status quo and declare it morally base. The act of eating meat is done unthinkingly for the most part and to have that act questioned is sure to ruffle some feathers...
