If your desperate could always get a US Mail forwarding service

Depends on when your introduced to games as to how much of an addiction/obsession it will hold. I believe the current generation of children brought up with computer game violence often find it the only way to release pent up agression that they are unable to remove in other methods. Just all too easy as a naive kid to get sucked into the obsession of gratification rewarded by playing games. Especially with games like CoD where you can be lauded by others as essentially a hero for pulling off some feat or possesing something unique. Did they mention any of the Korean MMO's in this piece? If you need an indicator on how badly it can mess your life you just have to look at the people dying from over playing of games.

Seriously 50mb broadband and access to newsgroups, I will watch every programme from start to finish then move on to the next. Next up Mad Men or Deadwood as Sons of Anarchy has just finished

I was definitely addicted to gaming, especially playing CoD:MW in a semi professional format. Going home every night, strategising and then playing and would literally go mental at myself if I missed a shot etc. Now that I have a job in London, my gaming time is the occasional play on the Xbox or Football Manager. Now got an addiction to watching a full tv series back to back....

Steamwheedle Cartel! Assuming everyone will be rolling Worgens

Now you've got no excuse for not getting an iPad....

Ooof. I don't really need one but don't see what else I have to spend my money on and the finance is all the more alluring.... -
I'm always going to vouch for the intel line of SSD's. I've got one in my home rig and lightning isn't the word to describe it.

Thinking of taking a stab at WoW again. Can anyone name a decent RP realm?

How far do you travel to work, how long does it take?
Butters replied to jonny_2010's topic in Educational IT Jobs
45-60 mins each way as I get the tube into central London everyday. Goddamn I hate the tube. -
Agree on Baldur's Gate - who can forget Minsc and Boo (A miniature giant space hamster)

Oh forgot to add one of my favourite point/click games. Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars - great story, great characters.

[joke] Audio File: Pizza Ordered In Belfast
Butters replied to 6Foot2's topic in Jokes/Interweb Things
Is it about the pizza not having a topping? If so I got told that was a Welsh bloke -
Also Final Fantasy VII when Aeris died was the ultimate tear jerker in a game.

My greatest gaming moment was playing for a CoD4 clan in the codleague.com league. Playing a team from Cyprus who were notoriously laggy/dodgy who we managed to beat with me pulling off a solo defence of the Broadcast map when all my team mates had died, thus winning the league.

Oh agreeing wholeheartedly with the PC version being dud. Tried it last night on a whim from Steam and it's pretty laggy on my monster gaming rig. Very disappointed again that consoles are favoured.
-
Nope, most people don't as it's generally overkill. If you've got the money and space for the rads then would be a nice thing to get cooled aswell !

West Ham Born in East London and my family are all hammers apart from a Grandad who played for Spurs as a trainee.

It easily would - these games are ancient. Fallout was released in 1997 and Fallout 2 in 1998. http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/screenshots/6/63576/falltwo_screen002.jpg

Correct - PC only I'm afraid and they look very 'dated' when compared to Fallout 3 / New Vegas. Classic storyline though explaining the vaults and how it happened, also gives you more info about NCR and the Brotherhood of Steel.
-
I urge anyone to play through Fallout 1/2 to get the story of the vault and who's who. Fond childhood memories of being a pr0n star in New Reno in Fallout 2.

In Every King....... -
Probably has something to hide but if the police asked me for my password they wouldn't get it. Giving out your password is like letting people have a poke around inside your mind.

Arguing over two products doesn't generally help the OP - he's after facts/figures rather than Aruba is better. You've not actually stated why Aruba is better by the way other than saying Ruckus is entry level.
