    How important are graphics to you.

    Unless a game is mind-bendingly ugly, the base graphics of a game rarely bother me. HOWEVER, I have several fairly OCD criteria which cause me to stay away from consoles. A) If the framerate is noticeably choppy, or below 30fps, it frustrates me immensely. B) If a game is not as visually...

    Poll: what is your money sink?

    My money is pretty evenly distributed between girlfriend maintenance and upkeep, drinking at bars I can't afford, buying Steam games I don't need and guitar parts for my odd projects. When I manage to find a real job I'll be sure to add cocaine and hookers to the list.

    SWAT4 - The Last of its Kind

    I absolutely loved SWAT 4 and to a lesser degree the expansion. The open-endedness of the mission strategy as well as the planning phase that made the modern guns-blazing-cover-and-shoot approach implausible was what did it for me, as well as the fact that lethality was never absolutely...

    Poll: Your personal favourite anti-hangover remedy?

    I'll aim for at least two glasses of water before I go to bed, that tends to ease things up the morning after. Failing that though, a tactical vom and a blue powerade usually hits the spot.

    Need to get depressed fast? Come to this thread, we will get you fixed up right quick!

    I happen to have a vast collection of exceedingly bleak music.. Here are a few of my faves, (Really gets going around the second half) (Beautiful, but haunting) (Pure, distilled despair) (These guys took misery to an artform) (Always makes me all choked up and...

    Recommend me some Skyrim mods

    The official modding toolset which made oblivion and fallout so moddable has been delayed, and should be released some time January, or so Bethesda tells us. That pretty much means there isn't a whole lot in terms of new content mods yet, but rather just mods that change superficial aesthetic...

    My First Computer Build , could use some help!!

    Yeah, it's not really a good year to be buying hard drives to be honest. Huge floods hit Thailand in October, crippling companies that supply Western Digital, Seagate, Hitachi GST, Toshiba, and Samsung. OT: Looks like a pretty sweet build in terms of value for money. Like Hateren47 said...

    Skyrim physical copies have no data on the discs

    Well fuck that for a joke. Here in New Zealand, where the internet is third world and outrageously overpriced, I pay $50 a month for 15gb. That's $90 odd for the game, then another $50 to download the fucking thing. Not impressed. Plus we don't get any of that megabit fancyness over here, oh no...

    Ever feel sorry for the enemies you've killed in a game?

    Hahahah, this. It's pretty soul destroying to have to trek for 15 minutes over a large portion of eastern Europe only to be sniped by some assclown hiding behind a rock and have to do it all over again.

    Short survey on Backpacks (Chance to win: Terraria!)

    If you travel to Work or School and carry electronics, would you say their physical safety (Due to water damage, damage from general force on your bag or damage to your phone as you take it out) is a real issue to you? (1-10, 1 being "Of little concern" and 10 being "Of great concern") -7 I...

    Why do people like dubstep?

    It's really kinda situational music. I am partial to some good, thumping dubstep at parties or nightclubs. It's good to just rock the fuck out to and dance like a retard to, but I don't really understand how some people can appreciate it sober / as background music while going about daily...

    Whats the most expensive thing you've ever won?

    I once won a copy of crackdown in a radio station phone-in competition. I may or may not have been the sole entrant :/

    Is this racist, does my teacher have a right to punish me for this?

    That's BS. It's a question about what the individual is personally turned on by, racism doesn't even come into it, it's not something we can control. Pose a question like that to somebody and you can expect an honest, subjective opinion damn it. She has no right to punish you for that.
