  1. Look at the latest edits Russia and Japan are not in Africa... EDIT; And HERE to see that it also happens in my own country. Altough you probably cannot read it... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> All your edits indicate is that people are, on the whole, uneducated about AIDS and STD transmissions. A quick read mentions that people in Russian and Japan never knew better, and didn't understand the disease. I didn't see anything about how they suddenly decided that condoms were no longer necessary (it's funny, because your Russian quote was actually about a contraction via sharing a needle, so I'm not sure how this came into a discussion about the prevalence of condoms), and that is why transmission rates are improving. Llyranor's post is the first one that actually makes an indication that condom use is on the decline...not yours.
  2. Errr, no....it opens up a picture. Here's my link: http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?ac...pe=post&id=3944
  3. Err, I guess I should make it clear that I was never really talking about Africa. The spread of the disease has always been exceptional over there. And besides, a disdain for using condoms for personal protection is not an indication that condom use is less prevalent, nor is a fast spread. All you've basically done is indicate that the AIDS epidemic is a big deal in Africa.
  4. Nah, it still just insists on showing me a picture. Clicking on it has yet to have me playing the game.
  5. I clicked but it didn't work! I suppose I could always take a "wrong" turn to my local computer store on the way home from work today. Though I am playing the conquer game with Hearts of Iron at the moment. EDIT: AND YOU DOUBLE POSTED IT YOU MONSTER!! EDIT: I swore I saw 2 earlier.
  6. I see little indication that the usage of condoms was in any way more widespread prior to the 1960s. And just as you read your big headlines that kids think they aren't necessary, I can also find some that have kids increasingly adhering to abstinence, and supporting safe sex. I mean, if we just go by the media, we'd think that murders were the most common type of crime out there.
  7. Not really. It's barely been a year for most people, and hasn't even been a year for PC users. Doom was years in between, as were other popular franchises like C&C Tiberian Sun, Half-Life 2, etc. It's not uncommon for there to be years in between.
  8. If you can remember who the two default teams were, we could confirm it. The older ones always had the defending conference champions as the default teams I think the new ones do too, but the most recent one is an exception since there was no NHL last year.
  9. Where have you heard about a reduction in condom use recently? And wouldn't condom use have actually been "popular" before the 1960s in order for it to be reduced in the 1960s?
  10. Condom use has been declining since the 60s???
  11. I'm also a big fan of the most recent Eastside Hockey Manager.
  12. I think all the work spent on that would start to take away from the rest of the game. It's nice to dream though.
  13. I quit playing them because I was owned. Brutally. Every time. Without fail. I could beat the computer, but not my friends. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I guess I'm being a bit too narrow, but I suppose this means you could very well have played some old classics like Blades of Steel and whatnot. I'm just so used to considering the first NHL Hockey game (the '92 one) as the "originator" since it pretty much started the trend of annual hockey games.
  14. Oooo, for better or worse I don't usually associate racing games with sports games, so I didn't even think about Gran Turismo. I really enjoyed that game.

    I always thought Theodore had quite a bit of hair. Maybe he's compensating...or Propecia is working
  16. If you'd quit playing hockey games since the '92 version came out, I wonder if you can really claim that you ever started playing them :D I haven't played too many sports game unfortunately. The most recent one that offered a good challenge with decent playlength was probably Tiger Woods (I can't remember the year...2004 I think). NHL 06 is ok, but as always it gets to a point where I find it too easy to score. An older one that I really enjoyed was 4D-Boxing.
  17. I have that on my computer somewhere too
  18. Ok. What time should I be there? Though it did seem like an 8 hour time zone difference, so I might be a little late.

    I really hate that this incident has happened, if for no other reason than I don't particularly care about it, but it's all I have to listen to an see for hockey news.
  20. It makes sense that it can't exceed 4 GB of memory, as that's the most you can address on a 32-bit processor.
