    Neverwinter Nights, can anyone recommend?

    YES!! NeverWinter Nights was my first love when it comes to gaming. It was the first time that I became fully entrenched in a game that I then played over and over again. It was only until Oblivion that I loved another game nearly as much. The first game is fantastic, heavily text based for...

    What's the weirdest thing you've ever heard someone say IRL?

    It's called darwinism, don't worry it sorts itself out in time :) Also what are these 'Hipsters' i've heard about but never actually seen. Are they similar to 'Indie' people? My friend Greg: "How do you make cheese on toast?" then followed up with "Well i put the cheese of the toast... but...

    A question for the male drinkers out there

    Your friends are not wrong :) Hahaha, in all honesty the only person ive seen with that drink in the last year (longer?) was my fifty odd year old dad. So atleast it appeals to both men and women! Gave up gin when i was 15... because i tried to ride my bike down some stairs after i had a...

    Cannibal, Vampire murderers to marry

    I agree with you on this. I do not want these people to be released into the world. For the sake of possible future victims and those that have already suffered. Saying that though, i do not believe whatever romance they have should be interferred with. I don't think we're in a position to...

    Australian McDonald's Now Spraying Thieves With DNA

    But bare in mind 95% of the people that rob... McDonalds... (just think on that for a second) are not going to be planning for a major operation and are most likely, not that bright. I mean no offense to criminals of course :) Also we know about this tech equipment but many people won't know...

    222: Straight and Narrow

    Wow, old post. Had to catch up to speed on this one. They can! Gay male/female characters can be all those things and more (they can be anything the designer wants them to be). But that isn't what i was saying. What i was saying is that most developers want the main character to be easily...

    Cruiseliner disaster: "Women and children first" Still relevant today?

    I don't think any general 'rule' applies really. If you are able to help people and are in no immediate danger yourself, help those around you that need it.

    Sexist Ad Lands EB Games Australia In Trouble

    Is it just me or was that advert crap? I mean putting all the sexism to the side and all. Yeah i can appreciate why people would feel alienated towards this. Fair play, can't really blame them on it. Just scrap the advert and move on I say. Wasn't particularly good anyway, I'm sure someone...

    Online game helps fight AIDS

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-14986013 I thought this was pretty interesting. Apparently an online game 'Foldit'.... actually just read the article, it explains it far better than I could. Short version: "The game, called Foldit, allows players to create new shapes of proteins by...

    Kelis slams UK for racism

    "However, it should be noted that if the incident had occurred that the man would have been from a non-European Union country as European Union citizens (which includes British people) would not be in the same immigration queue as US citizens." - Wiki (naturally) There is racism in this...

    Sorry sir, but I can't take you seriously.

    When my RE teacher declared that gravity wasn't real. That pretty much did it for me, but just incase it didnt, she said much more! Such as: "If you want to believe your a monkey..." All my other teachers, including my main tutor (who was the other RE teacher) were good though.

    If you had to invade Hell which fictional army would you use?

    "Give me but a thousand men crazy enough to conquer hell... and we shall do it!" If I'm remembering correctly thats a quote from Imperial Guard (Warhammer 40K) Saying that though Imperial guard are slightly shit, even though I had them. I would go with Space Marines. or an army of Halo Spartans.

    Poll: No-kids-allowed movement. Yay or nay?

    I'm 21 and don't have a child. I disagree with this, however I will agree to the cinema thing. The Harry Potter Over 18s was a brilliant idea! Shame that I never actually asked for it and went to the kids one (which only had a few children in it and they were quiet) but it's a very good idea...

    I just met Lady GaGa

    I don't quite know why but my mind first interpretted this as, you having the queen at gunpoint. I'm presuming and hoping this wasn't the case... Most famous person I've met was Jimmy Carr (not that massively famous) I asked for a hug and got one :D
