Your PC is essentially on recommended specs, and if you keep your PC optimised and not bogged down by useless shit, you will have a smoother, quicker better looking game, with more responsive controls. Plus you'll get it cheaper, as mentioned above. I also find playing games on PC immerses me...

The Thief series for excellent atmosphere, and the special kind of fear you only feel when playing Thief. Deus Ex, for the whole lot. Level design, architecture, the overall intelligent feel of the game. Plus, I'm a big cyberpunk geek. That stuff's like meth to me. Baldur's Gate 2 for the...

It's not about what you look like, it's about how confident you are, and how you use those looks. I've had periods in my life where I've been low on confidence, and not been able to find any decent women. I've also had points where I've been confident and happy with life, and have dated several...

Hey, I did this about two days ago. And you're right, it does not go well. The most disgusting drink I've ever had was called a Purple People Eater in a bar in South London, which involves a shot of everything behind the bar poured into a pint glass. If you can drink it, you get free drinks...

Clicked Punk, but Punk/Alternative would be better. Good punk pushes boundaries, and tests expectations. That's kinda the point. My personal tastes include everything from the Ramones and Iggy Pop through to Conflict and Black Flag to The Dresden Dolls and Fugazi. Also a lot of the Heavy...

Nintendo has been around far longer than anyone here, unless there's any 130 year olds lurking around. Nintendo died before, and resurrected itself in far worse circumstances, I really can't see it going anywhere now. If it chooses to stay in the casual gaming market (and why wouldn't it,)...

I work in a restaurant. Start work at 4pm, finish around 11pm, but that's because we close early tonight. I fully expect to finish later, because once we've shut the store we'll probably have a few beers, while waving at the customers trying to get food. Anyone that works with the general public...

I swear for emphasis, usually. And when generally annoyed. I've never understood the mindset behind swearing, to me they are just words, no more corrupting and evil than any other words. For me, classing a means of expression as wrong just doesn't make sense. Besides, some swear words have...

Off topic, but I owned Beyond Good & Evil on GC, you are not alone. :) And Eternal Darkness was also jaw shatteringly awesome.

One thing I really hate is Carol singers. Although I DO like to fuck with their heads. When they ask for a donation, try looking them in the eye, and telling them that you're unemployed, and that your whole family is dead. If you can, take a picture of their faces. It's fucking priceless. I...

I used to get this when I was younger, around 15-17, I always put it down to a weird hormonal thing, but I think most people get paranoid sometimes. Sometimes, I think that if people could read minds, they'd think I was weird, so I start to try and think normal, everyday thoughts for a bit...

For me it'd be Baldur's Gate 2 and Deus Ex. I still play through these games about once a year. I still actually find new things in Baldur's gate 2. There's just a hell of a lot of game there. I also stuck something embarrassing like 400 hours into Morrowind, when it first came out.

Rule 8 - Don't be mean to strangers, they are dangerous and unpredictable. Like rabid wolverines. Rule 17 - Take time out each day to stop, and just enjoy being alive for a minute. Rule 35 - Every now and then, just be nice to someone that doesn't deserve it. It'll come back to you in...

I think people hate Christmas because they know they are supposed to be happy. It amplifies our misery knowing that we should be having a good time. Suicide and depression ratings both go up at Christmas. I'm personally not a huge fan myself, and I have had bad luck for the last 6 years over the...

I'm 21, but I don't consider myself an adult yet. I hold down a full time job, and live in a house with a couple of mates. I'm putting myself through college again starting next year, because I fucked up college and school when I was younger, being more rebellious and stupid than is healthy. I...
