I've seen plenty reviews of the game and I don't even know which I can trust.Some make it sound like sure, the game is hard, but it's super awesome and you'll love it. Then there's another I read which said that the game is horrible because the checkpoint frequency is shit and that you get insta-killed arbitrarily and can only get passed the area without dying if you are clairvoyant. I'm on the fence with this game until I am sure that the constant deaths won't make the game unfair and ruin my experience.
It wont, you instead become addicted to the gameplay and don't mind the deaths (or atleast to the point it ruins the game for you). Think along the lines of mario games - you'll die but eventually you'll find a way to stop dying and beat the level. And when you do it is awesome.
If you play online then you'll see other adventurers as well and can read notes left behind that leave warnings of traps and what not or enemies ahead - although I've heard that these messages can be assholes trying to trick you. But I noticed that you can rate the notes left behind and so far I haven't ran across a note with false information.
Downside of the game is the difficulty (mainly getting used to the difficulty, eventually you'll adjust) but the upside is it is very gratifying when you beat a boss or any progess you make really. Plus the game has a great dark evil atmosphere to it.
The cool part was valve reducing the game price - but if you haven't already picked up half-life then I doubt many will now. Of course I'm pretty sure most were left at the end with a "Wtf?" just happend feeling. Gordon Freeman may be saving humanity from an alien invasion but he also started the alien invasion albeit on accident. How he beat snake and link is also beyond me.
List should of stopped at #1 with a honorable mention for #50 Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Yang di-Pertuan Agong of Malaysia

And of course I didn't mention Mahmoud Ahmadinejad President of Iran since I'm biased because he is my lover. This one is for you Mahmoud.

Sleepy brown eyes, Buttery pecan thighs and your hairy butt.... yeah...

I think it would be funny if someone had a bleching or farting remuneration for like a fire breathing power. Some of the remunerations have a bit of a connection with their powers (Li's energy and his need to eat for remuneration) but others not so much (scientist who had Li's powers that took off his victims shoes and turned them upside down?)
I would have a "jigglypuff" remuneration. I would sing and everyone would fall asleep. My remuneration would be having to draw on your face with a marker while you slept.

I think we are chasing ghost - complaining about things that aren't really a problem and letting IRC or chatroll spill over on to the forums. Newbies don't realize that they post in the wrong sections, yet at some point an older user gets mad because of all the previous newbies before him making the same mistake. Sorry but things like that are just going to happen.
Plus people who are being accussed of trolling when they are just teasing - and even if they were trolling or are just accussed of it the entire thread turns into a complaint about trolling and who is and isn't a troll.
New people are going to always join a forum, they bring life to a forum. It is up to the leaders and elders of a forum to set the tone for a forum, and if the tone is changing for the worst then part of that blame lies on the older members of the forum.

Yes and it was hard to do because their bed is like a freaking marshmellow. I couldn't get any leverage.
BTW this seems like not the right section for this topic.

I'll add an extra piece of information just to keep it on-topic: When I was little, all I wanted to be was invisible and wealthy.I can turn invisible when no one is looking.
Man I remember that the teacher would always threaten to write us up if we wouldn't stop messing around, but half the time she was laughing as she threatened us cause it was so funny. So me and my friend said "No! thats it! you always say that but can't do it!" so we grabbed the referals and wrote ourselves up and left to the office. We had to clean the tables after lunch, but we were HEROES! (more like idiots...)
Actually, the class I had the most lulz in was my spanish class. The teacher was hot, and we were a ridiculous bunch. I remember there was an Arab and Jewish kid in my class and they were always making jokes that were so politically incorrect. We had to do a project together and my arab friend said "Andy (jew) tell were you live so we can do this project" and Andy said really loudly "No! I'm not telling you were I live! You'll car bomb me!"
Other time Andy (jewish dude) threw a paper plane across the class and hit Tamar (Arab). Tamar shouted out "AH! Israeli Air Strike!!!"

If you are single then you wont have a girl friend who wont let your dog sleep on the bed. I'm considering dumping her.

But I am a boring guy. I can't change that so I don't bother.If you think you are boring then do something about it. Read up or listen to latest pop culture or at least know what are the lastest movies. Learn a bit of astrology - girls love things that talk about personalities and the mystic. I used to carry around a deck of magic cards (not the TCG - like magician cards) and would do tricks for people. It took me 15 minutes to learn how to do the tricks. Thats it.
Even if you are boring NOW, you can change it by improving your skill set. You can't be a loser who can't do anything and still expect girls to be attracted to you.
But even more importantly you have to hold yourself to a high regard. Have confidence and don't think that these girls you want to talk to are better then you. Of course, if you have to improve who you are as an individual to feel that confidence, well that is only natural. But at least don't fell less important than the girls. Like Zeph said, girls have a desperation radar that bleeps everytime they detect a guy with no self esteem.
