    Guns, guns, guns

    Guns make it easier to kill, i would argue. It takes one nervous guy with a gun to cause a lot of hell. It takes serious intent to stab someone, more so if the stab doesn't kill on the first strike. Guns were created because they make it easier to kill things- People, animals, whatever. Killing...

    Most Creatively Evil thing done in Fallout

    You cannot kill that woman enough. If only there were more ways.

    Fallout 3 endings...

    You don't learn much more- they really should have included that. It was one of the best parts of the first two, finding out what happened based on your actions. However, i can tell you what happens to the guy you send off to find nuka cola quantum for a threesome, if you haven't seen/figured it...

    Survival Horror games

    I wouldn't know if this strictly counts, but there's something sinister and scary about Bioshock... Scared me more than Resi Evil's at any rate.

    Starcraft 2 - It is out there

    No LAN? But i live for LAN. How will i beat Protoss on Hard if i cant lift my base up and put it in my allies base, and steal his defenses and minerals? That sucks. After CivIV, L4D & Close Combat, it's my most played LAN game...

    Which is the best-looking Power Armor?

    According to Operation Anchorage, the entire mission to liberate Alaska and they could only allocate about 6 guys in power armour for the assault. You'd have assumed power armour would have been in short supply even at the height of the U.S. power.

    Favorite books / What are you reading?

    Each to his own, eh? That's the beauty of books... perhaps my claims of 'Greatest american author' was a little too rigid, eh? :p Haven't read Twain since i was a kid... I suppose i'll have to get round to that at some point...

    Which is the best-looking Power Armor?

    In F3, like the Tribal Power Armour from The Pitt... I like the idea that Tribals found dead BoS and adapted and repaired the Armour. Just one problem with that. There were no Tribals. Continuity doesn't seem to be their strong point. Otherwise, original PA from F1, just for the sheer joy...

    The Stunning (and Horrifying) Truth about Fallout 3 Add-ons

    I don't know about that. When i ran across such wonderful locations such as 'Trash pile' i started to wonder if exploring were really all it cracked up to be.

    China and Big Brother

    Strictly speaking, Utopianism is different, and earlier than Marx's ideas, although he took some points from it, but i know what you mean and i'm just being a little pedantic. But i agree with you to some extent, however there are still many things that can be applied to our societies that could...

    China and Big Brother

    Oh no, i agree. It seems to cast a bad light, but that is because exactly of what you said. The idea of a communist 'revolution' is somewhat of an oxymoron, in light of democracy's neccessity to play a big role in a transition. I think the idea of communism was nothing more than lip service in...

    Drugs- Prohibition or not

    So you're saying we should ban cars?

    Drugs- Prohibition or not

    I don't think science and reason have as much to do with it as they should. Pharmaceutical companies would rather synthesize and produce their own substances, much more profit in it, though that's not to say they wont use some plants- THC (active ingredient in Cannabis) was used in some form of...

    China and Big Brother

    Tell me one so-called communism that draws a good comparison with anything Marx or Engels stated. The mere fact that popular movement and democracy form integral parts of the communist systems discredit China and the old USSR. The only half decent example i've seen, which is only a weak...

    Drugs- Prohibition or not

    You save me typing. There are many, many arguments for drugs to remain illegal none of which this guy stated. I could give a good dozen horror stories regarding drugs, but i could give hundreds regarding alcohol. Alcohol is fun with friends? Guys in my town think so too. They usually think it's...

    China and Big Brother

    They do a pretty good job of censoring the internet though. I'd watched a programme on the 'Tank man' (what a legend, seriosly') in Tianemen (sorry for the awful spelling) Square. If you do a search in China you cannot find a picture of that man, that iconic picture. If you typed that in google...

    Drugs- Prohibition or not

    I'm an occasional user of quite a lot of different substances, so i may be a little biased here (although despite my use of supposedly 'highly' addictive subtances such as cocaine, codeine and ketamine, i am addicted to none bar cigarettes) but i think most drugs should be legalised. Most of the...

    First Time You Played Fallout...

    Me and a friend bought a copy in 98, 99 something like that. Preferred F2 at the time. I remember the exact moments i was hooked- Right about the time of getting to Vault City. Met Harold, and Herbert or Bob kept us in stiches for hours, repeating the conversation over and over again... Then...
