    Escapists: Why are we so different?

    Or just "Call of duty is pretty rubbish compared to halo, what do you guys think"? Seriously, this board creates flamewars without being trolled most of the time. It doesn't need the help.

    Games you Loved, then learned to Hate

    Call of Duty 4, though this in regards to the multiplayer only, I still think the single player is superb. The mutliplayer is great. There are only a couple of things that I think could do with being fixed. Sadly the community has gone terribly downhill, and now the majority of times you play...

    Escapists: Why are we so different?

    Just going to point out that there are some excellent sites that don't have nearly as strict mods. Not complaining or saying that they should change, it's up to them how they mod, but people seem to think that if they weren't as strict this place would descend into some sort of of nightmarish...

    Escapists: Why are we so different?

    It's certainly a decent forum, but definetely has negatives aswell, just not necessarily the ones people think of when they think of the "bad" parts of the internet. In many ways, the irritated replies often seen in "Am I the only one?" threads apply here.

    Name a feat of musical awesome-ness, that you have accomplished!

    Learnt Since I've been lovin' you by Led Zep and the solo Sweet Child O Mine by Guns N Roses today, which was good. Made me feel I'd done something productive, which I needed due to the big pile of schoolwork I didn't do.

    Most pointlessly hard achievement there is?

    This is the right approach. On that specific level it's all about knowing the best places to use flashbangs to allow you to clear the most people quickly, where to reload, where best takes advantage of your team etc. I probably died most on that level of any of the game, but found it...

    Remake an old game with this gen's technology. What do you go for?

    Pacman: Pac with a vengenace, in which the protagonists fractured psyche becomes more and more apparent as the player progresses through an increasingly surreal narrative, driven by the protagonists attempts to cope with his troubled past and mental issues(personified by the antagonists; Inky...

    What the Black Ops weapon list should have been

    The version of the FAMAS seen in the game, I believe, was first manufactured in the 90s.

    Monty Python. As Funny as a "Flying Circus" or as Dull as a "Dead Parrot".

    Edit: Double post due to the update, my computer was being slow, so I hit the agree button again, can someone delete this please?

    Monty Python. As Funny as a "Flying Circus" or as Dull as a "Dead Parrot".

    Which would be tragic. I'm still at school, but luckily my parents introduced me to python early. That's my contribution to the thread. Now, I will sneak away. And bugger off.

    Poll: 4chan Vs Most major western governments

    Also, what are they going to do with them? Prison? Come on, we already don't have the space, and frankly who's going to support using that space to put away a loose association of internet activists, as opposed to other criminals. Bar them from the internet? Just proves their point in...

    Poll: 4chan Vs Most major western governments

    IIRC(and that's a big discalaimer, because I can't remember my source) I have heard that WikiLeaks asked the pentagon if they wished to censor certain information that wasn't relevant to their point(soldier names etc) that could be damaging, but that wikileaks didn't have the necessary...

    Poll: Do you agree with the Black Ops Swastika Ban?

    Personally, I'd prefer no emblems, but I find arbitrary censorship more objectionable. How anyone can possibly judge which attrocities are offensive enough to be censored and which aren't is beyond me, and I'd prefer no censorship to that. I treat it the same way I'd treat someone on the...

    Poll: Do you agree with the Black Ops Swastika Ban?

    No, my point there was that your line did not include them, which simply adds to my argument that such things are arbitrary and not a good way to go. I should have made that clearer.

    Poll: Do you agree with the Black Ops Swastika Ban?

    So racial stereotypes are fine now? I don't think that we can just all decide something is evil, as easily as you make out. Oh sure, I don't think there'd be an objection to the swastika falling into this "evil" category. However, as you pointed out with the hammer and sickle, it's not as...
