"why buy the cow when you can get the sex for free"
Another post to keep the topic going.

Woah, don't bow to me, I'm really not anywhere near that special. Just because I'm a regular it doesn't mean that some newbies aren't better and more intelligent than I am, and some of them have even won more GAD's than me (How'd you manage to get 4 before becoming a regular???).
You have actually been here longer than me, but just haven't posted as much stuff.
And I've never, ever posted a new topic that has lasted this long.
Bow to me? I, my friend, should be bowing to you.
the only other option is to only have games with fluffy cute lickle bunny wabbits in them, or stuff like crash bandicoot, mario etc.
these are good, but after a while all you want is some grade A sadism, which is where games like vice city and soldier of fortune come in.
I think people should stop whinging about violence in games, no-one forces them to play them, so why stop other people from playing them?
Seriously, I don't really care about violence in games, it can be fun.
I think Mortal Kombat would have never been a success without it, cos the games are pretty weak without the gore (even with it actually).
Things like Eternal Darkness and Resident Evil series do manage to capture the atmosphere, blowing zombies apart limb from limb and realistically is integral to that experience.
Things like BMX XXX or whatever it was called, are just cheap and sensational.
Controversy over sex, violence and bad taste in games has always been there.

It wouldn't be here today if I hadn't resurected it ages ago. That was when my name had a 'fan' stuck on the end of it...and i was a newbie.
