    250: Slow Death In a Shady Glen

    I'm mixed on hunting itself too. But that's why they sell licenses; to make sure only a certain amount of people are hunting any given season. And hunting seasons are very short and conditional, so you don't end up killing a fawn's mother when it's too young to fend for itself and whatnot, or so...

    250: Slow Death In a Shady Glen

    Re: GrinningManiac: Ahh, I see. Well, most hunters at least around here also eat the deer. Venison is a pretty exotic food since it's rarely commercially available, so of course we go through the trouble of butchering it. Some folks DO mount the heads, but they still usually eat the meat too...

    250: Slow Death In a Shady Glen

    Uh, what? Meat comes from live animals who are killed, and whether they're "bred for it" or not they still suffer and die to become it. That's why before I became too crippled to hunt anymore, I used to do so. I unfortunately have vegetable sensitivity (yeah, it exists) so I HAVE to eat meat...

    Looking to buy an RTS for the first time.

    Thirding Star Craft here, as well as Age of Empires. AoE II was great too, I remember playing it more than part I.

    Looking for a good read.

    This would probably take you more than a week, but... "Watership Down" by Richard Adams if you want something quite different. Contains unique cultural beliefs, studies of various types of society and government, dangerous epic journeys, undercover infiltration, and bloody battles. And...

    230: Get the Hell Out Of Dodge

    Uhhhh... he WAS appreciating it for what it was. He was going into the depths of emotion the whole place can bring out in the player. Even you went into detail there, and that's the exact same thing. He was just giving a flavor going with the theme that it starts off in a dark place, then went...

    Games you've played over, and over, and over...

    Final Fantasy VII. Somehow I just feel like revisiting that world over and over again. Either to try new things, or just to BE there. Sometimes I'll just stand in a nostalgic area and listen to the music and let the mood get to me. Or sometimes I'll just race my chocobos with my own music...

    Best and worst characters to be stuck on an island with?

    Wow, so many of you just picking hot chicks... How the heck are they gonna help you survive? If you're horny use your hand. You've got more important things to worry about, like eating and not dying. ...On second thought, carry on, yay death by Darwinism! ^_^

    The best time you've ever had in a game

    Oh, I've got another one... it was actually when my brother was playing Assassin's Creed for the first time (He's the one who gets all the new games) and we had just recently gotten an HD TV. When he rode his horse and got to the first mountain overlooking the first big city... We stood there...

    Why won't my gaming PC work?

    http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleID=1223 The beeps might be telling you what is wrong. If you have a different class processor, try looking up on google what the beeps might mean instead (such as, if it wouldn't classify as IBM, then try googling: (processor type here) error beep...

    Have You Played A Repeatitive game... and liked it?

    Lotsa oldskool NES/SNES games are repetitive but definitely fun. Bubble Bobble, the Mario's, etc. Slightly newer, I sometimes enjoy the repetitiveness in Final Fantasy VII of either racing/breeding chocobos, or battling certain enemies over and over for raising my EXP or my materia's AP. It's...

    Best and worst characters to be stuck on an island with?

    Best: Zack Fair from Crisis Core. He's sympathetic, yet optimistic, so if you're feeling despaired he'll lift your feelings back up. And being such a strong and fast warrior, he'll be able to catch food, defend you from dangers, and probably build a shelter or raft within an hour if he's got...

    Do you like the J-Pop / J-(insert genre here)?

    Pretty broad question; I never only like a particular genre or language, just particular songs. I can't just say "I like hard rock" cuz I don't like every hard rock song I hear. I'm totally song-by-song. But yes, I listen to Japanese music (as well as English, German, French, Romanian...

    What do ye fellow escapists think about guys and long hair?

    Long hair on a guy, in my opinion, as long as it's kept clean... raises their sexiness factor to levels over 9000. ;) I looooove it.

    The best time you've ever had in a game

    Me and my brother only rarely got to play online on Halo 2 back when he got it... He didn't have high-speed internet, and he visited my apartment for a few weeks and brought his console, where we did some online fragging for the first time. We didn't have a headset, so we couldn't communicate...
