    Nah. There are probably some people in Siberia that have never played a GTA game also. Yes I'm sure there are also some people on the moon who have never played a GTA game before I don't live in Siberia or the moon and have never played a GTA game. I'm not against them on principle, but there's nothing that I've ever read about them and no trailer I've ever seen that makes me think I'd actually like them. It doesn't help that I haven't really liked the other Rockstar games I have played, either. What !!! Seriously...no Rockstar games? And you aren't even mildly interested in GTA V ?

    I had a dream last night where I lead a commando unit of bikini babes, and Han Solo, to infiltrate and disrupt a conference of high level stormtrooper generals. My favourite detail was - apart from the bikinis - that a passing stormtrooper officer spotted my uniform wasn't right, and rather than raise the alarm(which is what would happen in the films) he demanded to know who my officer was so he could be punished for not checking my kit. Obviously I couldn't think of any officers' names, but while I was thinking he complimented me on not ratting out my boss! Took me to stores, and issued me with the right stuff. I felt almost guilty about being a rebel. If I hadn't woken up I believe I'd have defected with all my bikini babes. Anyway, my dream was better than yours, Ros. That does seem like an interesting dream...very thought provoking actually

    Yes those are all ways that people exert power over someone but those don't apply to power over women in the context of this discussion and why men rape women. I'm having a radical thought here, what if men rape women cause they're horny? Okay that's it, I can't explain this anymore. If you guys think that rape is just about sex or the fact that guys are amorous that's fine, I can't keep making the same point with links over and over again I'm moving onto other threads, byyyyyyyyyye

    You should get yourself nice friendly, steaming mug of Horlicks. That always makes me feel better. Oh you guys probably don't get Horlicks in Sweden ( okay whatever is the equivalent, Cloudberry soup? )

    I don't think you read the articles properly, I'll quote from the first one and last paragraph. I can't see how this can be made any clearer that the main reason for rape is not about the actual sex "I believe that both the psychological and sociological perspectives regarding rape can be proven correct depending upon the individual rapist. I believe that some rapists truly do have psychological problems while other rapists feel a need to dominate women or feel sexually frustrated as a result of rejection. Regardless of the cause of rape, I don't think that there is any excuse for invading another person's body and individual space without proper consent. As far as most rape cases are concerned, I believe that both sociological explanations of sexual permissiveness and gender inequality provide the best explanation equally."

    Okay I found some more links supporting my view, the second link you should find interesting. There are many more I can post but I think I've made my point http://voices.yahoo.com/why-men-rape-psychological-versus-sociological-3179564.html http://udayms.wordpress.com/2008/10/10/why-men-rape/ http://www.pbs.org/kued/nosafeplace/articles/rapefeat.html

    Please provide links or studies that show how rape is not about power but sex and I'll discuss this with you. It should be a good debate

    So you're saying I should keep having meaningless relations with women, but as I start becoming emotionally distant, use humor to deflect the ever encroaching loneliness .. then hope for a women that will one day burst through my shell of Adonis like good looks and see the real me underneath? And of course all would be well if we stopped there, but in actuality the relationship is doomed because we are both so horribly emotionally scarred, self centered and thoroughly addicted to messing our lives up.. so we never have to face the ever growing disappointment with reality, each other and especially ourselves.. I just now realize I've seen too many romantic comedies. At least you understand the ultimate hopelessness of the reality that you live in. And here I thought I was going to have to explain it in some way
  12. BruceVC
    Yes a small percentage of rapes would be just about the sex. You should read the links I provided earlier in this thread, there are several reasons for rape and almost all of them are not about sex but around the power over women.

    I tend to agree with Chair on this one. I don't believe in this mysterious force called evil that influences us . I believe people make depraved and abhorrent decisions for a number of reasons but they make these decisions themselves. And mental stability is a huge contributing factor when we ask "how can a person do that to another person ", like the example in this thread and what the paedophile wanted to do.

    Does it matter if it's better then other bad game, but it's still overall bad? That statement is difficult to answer because its subjective. I would say DA2 was a good game, not fantastic but entertaining But if you didn't enjoy it you would say its a bad game. So it matters if you think that 85 % of all games are bad because then you aren't raising the bar in any respects and you are just adding to the list of bad games, who wants to know about that? However if you think that 85 % are good and so is DA2 then your view does matter as you would be endorsing it for someone else?

    Then you got your answer. It's not like a lifteime of experiences of observations can be explained easily. But I do admitt I worded by forst post incorrectly. I said earieler that simplistic explanations sound wrong to me. So saying "rape is about power" is simplistic...well, it is. But to a point so is "rape is about sex". It's about both...and more. Good luck trying to prove morality Once again Trashman I don't think you actually understand the statement " rape is about power and not about sex" There is nothing simplistic about that comment and if you had read the links I made or any of the studies that are easy to reference you would get it. But since this thread and your comments is more for your entertainment you should just carry not understanding something that most do understand. Good luck

    This success will likely mean bloated AAA budgets will soar even higher, thus speeding up the impending AAA game model collapse. I say let it collapse. Geez Keyrock you don't seem your normal cheerful self, whats wrong?

    Really good news, well done Rockstar !!!!
  18. BruceVC
    I heard that as well, I wonder if anyone can comment?

    Bioware made a substantial investment in SWTOR and we know how that worked out Melk stop being naughty or I'll put you over my knee and give you a good spanking !!!!!

    Come now boys lets try to see the big picture. Rockstar has spent more money than any other company to create GTA V, but obviously its not just the money they spent that demands we purchase GTA V. Its the fact the game has received some amazing reviews and looks incredible. Everyone is saying how good the game is. So why not support there substantial financial investment in the gaming genre? If the game is a huge success, which I am confident it will be, it means other companies will consider the same type of investment in there next game( if they can afford it). This bodes well for the future of gaming, its the big picture boys...the big picture

    Have played gta3 as a kid, after that nothing, just not in to it. Don't get the hype at all. But GTA V looks revolutionary and there is a MMO element that will be released soon. Also this game has been the most expensive single player game ever to produce , $270 million to make this beauty. We need to support Rockstar in there endeavors to make gaming reach new heights http://www.dashhacks.com/ps3/ps3-rumors/gta-v-smashes-production-cost-records.html

    I have to be honest but I don't know anyone else who seems to suffer from such sleep inconsistencies as you Raithe After a decade of it, you get used to sleep patterns going all over the place. Well, maybe not used to it, but start establishing patterns to get things done when you're meant to be awake... sort of. Interesting, would you say its some sort of sleep disorder? Have you been to a doctor?
