This is actually a good one and will probably get you thinking. I was sat down the other day doing absolutely nothing bored out of my head and i thought to myself 'i think i'll go and play on splinter cell'. Then that's when it hit me, do we actually play games because we are bored or because we enjoy them?

Personally when i'm playing a game i do enjoy it and sometimes get to engrosed and forget what time it is but what actually causes me to play games in the first place boredem do i hear you say? So get this one, if we all never got bored and always had something to occupy our minds would the games industry exist? and also why did the games industry start up in the first place? Just think about it and give me your idea's.

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Easy and free service!
I think it's fab that you provide an easy-to-follow service, and even better that it's free...!
