    Transhumanism and you

    What is the average life expectancy these days? More and more people are living to be 100 but I wouldn't say that's the average. But if it was, by your reckoning, people in the 1960's were only living to be 50? OT: If we're talking about augmentations like Deus Ex, bio-mechanical or, was it...

    First Guns.

    I can dig it. I imagine firing on full auto would be a few seconds of pure, unbridled joy hah Threads like these really make me wish we could own guns over here, going target shooting must be so satifying

    First Guns.

    Out of curiosity, why do you feel the need to own a full auto weapon? Not that I'm some anti gun hippy, if I could own a gun in Britain I would, full auto just seems overkill haha

    Series like HBO Rome

    Rome is my favourite tv show ever, currently half way through my annual veiwing! As with many others I heartily recommend Game of Thrones and the Borgias. Borgias isn't as good but it's worth watching just for Jeremy Irons' performance, it's funny watching him out act the fuck out of everyone...

    am i the only person that dislikes planetside 2?

    I reckon it needs some kind of tutorial area or something, I found it very confusing just being dropped into a battle and being insta-killed. Not how I really wanted to start a new game. I imagine it would be really fun to play with a group friends though, the big battles were pretty epic with...

    I stopped reading CAD after the whole miscarriage debacle. What the holy hell is going on in these last ones? When did it stop being about gaming?

    Poll: Today is a wonderful day for me. Was it a Wonderful day for you?

    Pointless is the greatest gameshow in the world! Any day is wonderful if it features pointless OT: Congrats on the job! Havn't had a particularly great day in a while. Going to see the physio today so hopefully he can help sort my leg out, that would be nice. Then might be going to see...

    Insomnia

    I had it for about 6 months last year. I was sleeping maybe an hour a night if I was lucky. Went to the doctor, he gave me some kind of tranquillizer and that sure fixed it =D

    Poll: Friends With Benefits?

    I guess I'd have to go for option 5, although it didn't really crash and burn, just sort of ended for whatever reason. I THINK we were getting too close, feelings getting too etc and she'd just come out of a serious relationship/wasn't ready yadda yadda. At least I tell myself that to keep the...

    They're cross server. And there's no way you're owning Desolation, we always have the largest slice of pie!

    How did you find the Escapist?

    Like most others, a friend showed me Zero Punctuation. Not long after that I was having some pc trouble so made an account to ask the enlightened fellows here for some help and I've never left!

    First american to drop from gaming marathon!

    After reading the title, I am disappointed with the context, I thought someone was conducting a sort of Gaming Olympics and the first American had dropped out. Not that any Westerner could ever win the Gaming Olympics, Asians got that shit down, they keep going till they die, hardcore. OT...
