    How much revision can you manage a day?

    I didn't revise. Well, not properly for any decent stretch of time. Nothing worked. I had no self control. If I thought of something I wanted to do, I'd stop myself for as long as possible, then do it. Still got into uni though. Aim low xD

    How the hell is that (not) acceptable?

    I remember reading a newspaper article (in the UK btw. Legal age is 16 here) discussing the varying ages in different countries. In some European countries the age limit is as young as 12. The author of the article was discussing a change in policy of a age bracket, as in, if the youngest was...

    Ain't no homo gonna make it to heaven

    Eh, it's disgusting, but not surprising. The next generation will look back on them like we look back on people who despised mixed-race relationships, who considered women second class citizens, who enslaved people because of the colour of their skin. Their ignorance will die with them.

    UK to change videogame ratings

    So... the rating will change from red to grey? Literally, I can't see how this changes much. Both ratings have been on games for years, and if a parent doesn't notice the blatant red circle with a number in I can't see how a grey box with a number in will do much better. Honestly I consider...

    Ahh inconvenient.

    I'm seeing a trend that most stories I hear of stolen profiles always involve FIFA games in some way. Either MS point were spent on something for it or, like the op, he suddenly had it in his game history.

    Poll: Is shakespeare great?

    I find it ironic that your avatar is basically what Mr Fry's reaction to your statement would be :) OT: I was taught Shakespeare throughout school, and as you get older it gets better. Teaching Shakespeare to Year 7s is pointless in the extreme. They don't care. They won't understand. It...

    Extra Credits Takes a Stab at the Mass Effect 3 issues

    Holy shit there's a lot of anger and bitterness in this thread. It's perilously close to name calling, that's how immature some of this is. Anyway, interesting stance on it. I didn't like the ending, not one jot. I don't have the motivation to power through Insanity difficulty because I know...

    ECA Launches Campaign Against Videogame Warning Labels

    As I don't live in the US, I doubt theres much I can do. However, I will chip in by saying the ECA logo is very nice. Took me a while to work out what letters were what. I'm very slow this afternoon -.-

    Is the whole "Kony 2012" thing already over?

    Well, an ex-housemate of mine started posting Kony stuff a couple of days ago. She stopped after several people told her to give it a rest. She missed the bandwagon and now that wagon ahs flipped over and caught on fire.

    Do you believe that obama will follow through at all on his message of change for the better

    I'm not American, and therefore have no say on the elections or who becomes President. However, all the Republican candidates seem batshit insane, and Obama at least acts like a rational human being. Theres always the high chance that once getting into his second term he will step up his...

    Best weapon in Fallout new vegas?

    The Holy Hand Grenades. You need Wild Wild Wasteland, and youll find them at the nuked/poisoned NCR camp if I remember rightly...

    The fleets at the end of ME3 (SPOILERS)

    Perhaps the Reapers are deactivated in the Destroy ending, whereas the other one was destroyed externally. If there is some sort of killswitch, perhaps the indoctrination would stop.

    The fleets at the end of ME3 (SPOILERS)

    Theres always the issue with food and supplies for the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of troops and crew that my Shepard brought to fight the Reapers. Tensions between races are already high. A resource war over a devastated Earth would not end well.

    ME3 ending is it really that bad?

    Every single moment of Mass Effect 3 was incredible up until the very end. Final battle is epic, but the "choices" if I can call them that, are just... insane.

    Paradox CEO Blasts GAME

    I like GAME. I don't know, maybe it was the fact that there was only one in my area, but I would always go there for console games. That or HMV. However, they've been in the shitter for a while now, and I was beyond disappointed that they didn't stock ME3. I wanted to pay for most of it on gift...
