  1. There should be a distinction between those who are predatory and those who are simply weak willed (and I
  2. I'm with you there, I had friends who loved the original Resident Evil games, but all I saw were crappy controls and a bad camera that 'forced' horror when combined with cheesy IT'S BEHIND YOU! moments. I only ever played the demo for FEAR, but that seemed to be going in the right direction in terms of scaring the crap out of you, by giving you perfect controls then springing something totally harmless but unexposed on you as soon as you lost a degree of that control (for example, on a ladder). Likewise there's nothing overtly frightening about the original Half-life, but early on in the game the oppressive atmosphere combined with not knowing what you're dealing with encouraged a more cautious approach to what was otherwise a run-and-gun game.
  3. It's a good point eh? Immoral is also keeping people on deaths row for 15 years.
  4. This thread needs to be renamed to 'Enter the 360'.
  5. Sure is, but in the end the peep is still voted guilty by a jury filled with humans as every bit as falluble as you know them to be. I'm not even arguing with you, you're right, but it isn't enough to convince me that every person who gets death actually deserved it, which in turn, leads me to be generally against the death penalty, no matter how much I might feel that cirtain people simply deserve to die.
  6. Life imprisonment is only appropriate when the point of it is as much to keep the public safe as to punish the individual (where death is deemed inappropriate for whatever reasons). If people can't be rehabilitated then I don't see much other option (though obviously, this doesn't have to mean life in high security for inmates who are, in theory, at high risk of re-offence but otherwise non-violent/non-predatory). Personally, i'm generally against the death penalty, but only because of the terrible 'oooops, we got the wrong guy' scenario. EDIT: also, yeah, i'm exclusively talking about adult pedophiles here. Canada, for example, as age of consent as low as 14, but only when between peers.
  7. get some friends, loser, Crackdown is the best coop i've played in a long time.
  8. erm, yeah, don't even bother without coop. Also, i've heard a lot of people say screw driving, but I really enjoy it, though, mostly when you get it to level 4 and the agent supercar morphes into the batmobile.
  9. Redheads are fine. but haha @ ginger.
  10. As Llyranor says, there's promise, but if we played every 'good' game that had acceptable PvP we'd still be playing CoD4 with Kor rather than Ikaruga and Crackdown.
  11. H&D is an awsome game, one of the few that got away with being gamestoppingly buggy, yet still worth buying (though patches have fixed most of the issues). H&D2 was ultimately superior though.
  12. Don't get me started man, don't get me started.
  13. Could I theoretically be banned for asking the classic curtain/drapes question?
  14. haha, counterstrike.
  15. Yeah it was about 8-10 hours. Enough, anyway, that I had dreams about it
  16. Crackdown bought
  17. Full freeroaming coop saved it. Also, I got a chain of 50 on level 1 and it's still only a B+ rank EDIT: and yeah, i'll pick up crackdown on Saturday with the DS.
  18. If you weren't too scared to put it in.
  19. Ikaruuuuuuga
  20. Jazz Jackrabbit? haha, awsome.. Ikaruuuuuuuuga
  21. Ikaruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuga
  22. I too am blushing.
  23. I'm scared too. Hold me.
  24. Arcade games are bugged, I bought Golden Axe on my account on a different console, and while it considers it 'bought' on my account, I have to redownload on my console every time I want to play or else it defaults to the trial version.
  25. There's problems with arcade, but generally, the DLC is downloaded to the Hard Drive, but registered to the account. Therefore, payed DLC can't (in theory) be used on accounts that havn't purchased it but can be used on different xboxs using the same account that payed for it.
