I think the longest I've ever gone is around 48 hours. Me and my friend decided to partake in sleep deprivation as we were studying it in psychology at the time and we thought it would be 'trippy.' Obviously no stimulants were allowed. Pathetically we gave up after around 48 hours but we did...

We'll have to agree to disagree on that. I can agree with this. I don't particularly see guns as an answer to anything except defence against other guns. You make some good points, but again we'd have to agree to disagree on certain points. The idea that the women's rights movement was...

Opposition? I thought it was pretty clear to everyone now that America is living under a one party system. The only real interest is business interest. You could declare it fascism or its softer form 'corporatism.' The main driving force of this modern economy is consumerism as it's the ultimate...

I'll take this with a pinch of salt for now. Obviously the biggest fear is that we're going to get another "repeatedly press x for 60 hours" again. I really hope they do away with the autobattle command. To be honest I just wish we could go back good old turn based combat. I understand things...

I usually get teary in an awe inspired kind of way by classical music. The last time I got teary in a sad way by music was when they played 'Softly As I Leave You' by Matt Monroe at my grandads funeral. It's extremely depressing! I think my grandad would of preferred the shire theme or...

The best things are...chocolate! Food in general. Too much food. A general cheerful atmosphere with family you don't see too often. New books to read (my mum gets me a few books every Xmas) and my dog going insane with the excess wrapping paper. He's a maniac.

There are certain undeniable facts that have been acquired on this issue. Whether global warming is used as a political tool or not is a trivial issue in the grand scheme. Satellite images of the arctic circle from 1975 to the present day have shown a clear decrease in ice coverage of around...

I don't believe in a God. Nor do I believe in Angels, Demons, Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny. I've never heard a strong, unbiased argument for the existence of a deity. I'd consider myself a strong atheist in that I believe the world would be a better place without religion, but I don't see...

I'm actually currently playing Chrono Cross for the first time because I'm from the UK :( So far it's pretty impressive especially the soundtrack. My favourite non-final fantasy game that springs to mind right away is Dark Chronicle. I loved the gameplay and the time changing aspect of it as...

Interesting thread. :) Good: I'm a good guitarist and martial artist. These two activities are probably the two hobbies I've devoted most time too. I think I'm a reasonably good song writer too. Bad: I don't hold alcohol well. -_- I can't actually think of anything that I'm truly bad at. That...

I enjoyed reading this. Came across very personal as if I was reading someone's secret letter. I really liked the line: "Our ship of dreams was built from glass; I just brought the biggest stones. You aimed at each other; I aimed for the ship." Very lyrical. Sounds like it could be in a...

Merry Christmas from wet and drizzly England :D Currently trying to zap myself into a state of childhood anticipation!

I've played it on both systems and it was exactly the same on both. No problems at all. The only difference was that the XBOX had multiple discs which you had to change occasionally. In terms of visuals I didn't notice much difference and they ran at pretty stable frame rates. I guess I enjoy...

I'm currently replaying this game on the ps3 and I'm already getting a bit irritated. Everyone hates the linearity of the game. It feels like all you do is walk down straight paths and get into quasi-autonomous battles. It's amazing what a few towns/a world map can do to break up the monotony of...

The whole thing with this situation is that it's an emotional response to an evocative issue. Children being murdered is never going to be okay, but you've also got to face reality and be aware that thousands of children die everyday. Just think of the civilian casualties that have occurred in...

Interesting. Though my original vague point still stands. Even without the guns you'll still have the social pressues/cultural psychology that creates individuals who are capable of mass murder such as this. Maybe the Government should be doing something to help with the growing class divide in...

We're predicted to collide with Andromeda in 4 Billion years and all be dead within 1.4 Billion approx due to the suns increasing luminosity. You have a nice day now :D

Epic. They're Only Chasing Safety is one of my favourite albums period. I like how even though it gets clumped in with the 'emo' or 'screamo' genre it stands strong all on its own and oozes with classiness. I've just re-listened to the whole album after I saw your post and I'm now in the throes...

I remember being extremely impressed by the battle system at the time. Though I didn't really care on way or the other whether it was ATB or turn based. I was impressed by the ability to control summons for the first time. When I replay the game now I still experience the same enjoyment I did...

I believe that the 2nd Amendment was originally written into the Constitution by the founding fathers as the last defence again tyranny. This makes sense considering the events of the era in which the constitution was written. I think Thomas Jefferson said something about the beauty of the...
