Beer. Especially a high quality lager or Imperial Stout. Leffe's Blonde is one of my all time favorite beers.

I really wouldn't recommend Russia, Ukraine, or Belarus without at least some knowledge of Russian. Without it you will struggle, especially in areas outside of the two main Russian cities of St Petersburg and Moscow. Very little is going to be in English, and relatively few people are able to...

I have played many of PDS's games, so I've gotten used to their learning curves. If you can play one of their games, you can generally pick up another without too much hassle (other than the Hearts of Iron series I would say). After playing their games for so long, they almost feel simple to me...

Depends on my mood. Lately I've been into this baby: One of the best vodkas I've had. Brilliant for shots. Other than that I do love some Jager on the rocks.

It's not a console game, but the manual for Civilization IV was massive, and kept me glued to it for an hour at the very least. A friend of mine bought Civilization V a while ago and I was disappointed to find that when he opened it, there was only a tiny booklet inside. Ah how times change.

My ISP Virgin Media has indeed blocked it, however after literally one google search I was pointed to the pirateparty.org.uk site, who provide an alternative URL that works just fine. Great use of legal resources.

Oh yeh, the Escapist servers are actually in the US arn't they? Looks like I'm screwed.

Don't move here, you'll just get extradited back by our idiot government.

Ahh I had a fun time watching through those again. Really brought me back to my childhood. =3 Funny thing is that I could say these games stand up even now... though d'no how much of that is nostalgia talking. EDIT: Oh oh! Almost forgot, this!

Awesome song, it reminds me a lot of the stuff Falconer and Van Canto do. Keep it up. =D

I for one quite like the armour in the game. Even basic armour looks good.

One of the biggest immersion breakers in Skyrim for me was the fact that you'd be listening to the king of a mighty city in Skyrim, with his powerful, Scandinavian accent, and suddenly a little brat claiming to be his son runs up to you shouting in a high pitch American accent. After a few times...

Mine just has the effect of making me hungry whenever I see it.

Some really good suggestions in the thread, keep em coming guys. =) Might even report on how some of them that I try go. Doesn't really make a difference, ingredients are pretty much the same, though maybe a bit more expensive here. xD I might try that if I have an afternoon lecture and...

Care to share some recipes that keep you guys alive while away from home? I've been at uni for a couple of weeks now and am looking for some new ideas of what to cook, and any tips and tricks out there to make fast, cheap food. I've been living off a diet of pasta, potatoes, beans and...
