    Why isn't there a licensing process for having children?

    1.Unethical(maybe you should give parents an IQ test ?...) 2.Somebody would have to run this (courses,exams)/budget 3.Problem with demographics(people don't need a license to die) Then people who really want kids would have them ... and then they would undergo sterilization.

    The most influential game/technology associated with a game of the decade

    But Halo was the first - that counts.It's always the case that it could be (almost) anybody.Remeber - the MoH series was big on the consoles before Halo, but the clunky controls etc. held it back.Halos controls were what made it what it is.Also, i wanted to stress that I wouldn't be particularly...

    The most influential game/technology associated with a game of the decade

    I mean that the devs realised that the games like HL2 etc can also be done succesfully on the consoles and henceforth you could see a slow but steady drift of devs towards the consoles that made them big, thus pushing PC into oblivion(love pc's by the way). And starcraft - one of the m,ost...

    The most influential game/technology associated with a game of the decade

    The most influential game/technology associated with a game of the decade - I saw a shash in my thread title ;p And as for WoW - I don't play mmorpgs ,but from what I've heard it pretty much is the CoD of the genre.Love or hate it - they all model their soft after that.

    The most influential game/technology associated with a game of the decade

    Hello, I wanted to now what you people think was the most industry-changing game to come out within the last decade ? I'll allow myself for a little bit of cheating here and say Q3 (December 2nd 1999,if I'm [I mean Wikipedia...]not mistaken)with it's engine it's shaped the industry ever...

    Blizzard Declares LAN Will Be a "Footnote" in History

    It's illegal, but morally acceptable...I think. It's not like "I bought a car but it was faulty so I stole it from other car dealers". You already purchased the product and by then "stealing it" you harm nobody...I think ;]

    Did Left 4 Dead Ruin Valve

    One more thing - HL and Portal are not half as clever as you seem to think they are.The puzzles in HL are simplistic and can be solved by any halfwit.Using the notion of an intellectual to describe Valves games fanbase is a bit of an exaggeration - even within the video games industry context...

    Did Left 4 Dead Ruin Valve

    I don't like L4D that much. I like precision in shooters.I like when the victory is based upon skill.My impression is that there's not much of this in the aforementioned game.But the thing that boggles me is that you're really insulting not only L4D fans, but game fans in general.Look - I'm a...

    Do humans have original thoughts? or is it all just the same set of ideas reused, rearrang

    You can never explore an infinite area.Humans have been a finite period of time, that implies that theres always a possibility of discovering something that will change the way we perceive reality ,give us new outlook and ideas. Of course if you assume that it's like halo - 1 m^3 of something...

    Do humans have original thoughts? or is it all just the same set of ideas reused, rearrang

    Anyway - they way we think is firmly grounded in the world that spans in three dimensions, therefore, we are naturally limited to concepts concievable by the cns that perceives reality only in these spatial dimensions.Thoughts always consist of some building blicks. Ask yourself; "have I ever...

    Do humans have original thoughts? or is it all just the same set of ideas reused, rearrang

    If you exclude the possibility of some otherwordly intervention then on a basic electro-chemical level our thoughts are the same, for they are a result of the same group of cognitive processes ,but the how they project is specific for each one of us.
