having nude/near nude pictures/drawings of people (not including nudity with artistic merit) as your computer desktop wallpaper (or even worse laptop) or physical posters is weird
[QUOTE=gk99;45511896]If a game is 20 gigs or higher it's done something very wrong.[/QUOTE] Games are getting larger and larger now. GTA IV is roughly 15 gigs, same with EFLC. Total War: Shogun 2 is 25ish gigs, and Total War: Rome II hangs around at about that spot (both being large strategy games). Payday 2 takes up space, and so does Red Orchestra 2/Rising Storm. To put it in perspective, the original XCom game on DOS was only 16 Megabytes. Games will only keep getting bigger.
[QUOTE=gk99;45511896]If a game is 20 gigs or higher it's done something very wrong.[/QUOTE] The more powerful the PC gets, the bigger the games are to make better use of the hardware. One day 20TB games will be the norm, not even that far into the future, maybe 10 or 20 years. You can't go against Moore's law.
S2 of the walking dead is not very good. edit; the ending for the newest episode is good though

Ketchup is terrible.
I'm a big dubstep fan and I hated Skrillex's early work (Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites,Kyoto,Kill Everybody etc) but his newer stuff is actually pretty decent (Recess,Stranger,Ragga Bomb)
[QUOTE=gk99;45511896]If a game is 20 gigs or higher it's done something very wrong.[/QUOTE] I'm sorry but it's not 1995 anymore, textures aren't 256x256 anymore, and models, maps, and sounds take up a lot more space than they used too. besides the average hdd nowadays is like a terabyte big so 20 gigs isn't that much different than installing a 500mb game on a 20 gig hdd

HDDs are big and cheap nowadays but it's not a reason to stop caring about size optimisation. Especially when digital distribution is becoming more prevalent. 20 GB is often acceptable but when I see things like Wolfenstein requiring 50 GB it's like the devs simply don't give a fuck.
[QUOTE=asteroidrules;45510706]Because with a subject like that it's not particularly obvious he's trolling.[/QUOTE] Seriously? Somebody makes a brand new account, and posts hateful stuff? It's like a fisherman cast into a lake bait that was actually a bunch of bright lights that said "BITE ME"

It may have been a pretty good looking game, but it is easily the biggest game in pure size on your HDD that I have ever played, and honestly I have played games that looked just as good without them taking up such ludicrous space. I blame the engine.
[QUOTE=artDecor;45510331]I never really saw the appeal of flamethrowers in video games. They're difficult to aim, slow to kill, and are likely to catch the user on fire if they aren't wearing a special suit.[/QUOTE] Depends which video game. The WaW Flamethrower was pretty beast. The Halo 3 Flamethrower was abysmal though

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;45517556]Metal Gear Rising was 23 Gigs. 3 gigs was the game, 20 gigs was the cutscenes. That's fucking unacceptable.[/QUOTE] wait really, 3 gigs? that seems awfully small for a recent game
I like Lisa Simpson more than Bart.
Your title reminds me of the best game in the series. Hands down.
-snip= -edit-, that last opinion was fucking retarded. Saxton Hale is incredibly boring. Mr. Torgue is a far better executed character.
People should only be allowed 2 kids in the UK. They should not get any more benefits if they have more kids. The benefit system should have 3-4 judges on who should be allowed benefits or not to stop useless lowlifes just sitting on their arse doing nothing.

It happens, yes, but it's far from the majority. I'd assume it's pretty similar in the UK. Also it's not like the UK needs its population to shrink.
