It will definitely be a transition to make. The whole feel of the game is completely different as far as ambience and environment. As much as I like Infinite, I still prefer Bioshock's original theme. You will also have to get used to controls etc. In the original bioshock you couldn't use weapons and powers at the same time which needs getting used to. Bioshock 2 is more of a gameplay improvement on the first but still worth playing. Graphics still hold up well but it's like I said, it's a different scenery. Overall I like the environment, weapons and plasmids (vigors) better in the first 2 games. 

 

Also, I experienced these games waay before Infinite so it will be a much different experience for you in regards to enjoyment and appreciation for the game since you got a glimpse of Bioshock's Rapture in the end of Infinite. For me it was like going back in time to get a glimpse of one of my favorite games of all time whereas your experience was your first venture into Rapture from a third lens. Either way, you're going to enjoy the h##l out of these games.

Haha I thought I was the only one witht with that issue.

I have had "evil" saves in fallout 3, infamous etc. but they were all forced. I have been playing Mass Effect 3 (first timeplaying any in the series) and I have been making decisions based off of how I would react in the situation which happens to be "good". Although morality between paragon and renegade are somewhat ambigous at times in this game I do try to be the good hero. Decisions in this game rely more heavily on what is being sacrificed rather than core good/evil differeneces but for a lack of a better word I try not to act like a "jerk".

I naturally play games as the virtuous hero with flaws but ultimately someone who is "good". Evil playthroughs are for funsies.

Actually I find it interesting how most people would agree that they play through the game as a paragon of light... I wonder how those people who enjoy playing evil-ly are in their everyday lives haha.

So the last game I left off with was Soul Silver and have been playing that to death just reminincing about the old pokemon days, but lately I want to start a new adventure. Half of me says I should buy gold and relive it again from the start and then the other says I should try something new. 

 

Well my point really is that I have skipped black and white versions so I wanted to know if it's a good idea to get black/white or black2/white2. I understand the core differences between the generations but should I just go with b/w because it's the "original" version anyway or if I get b2/w2 I wouldn't be missing out on anything?

I have a question. What is the general rule for weight gain? I mean like I was always told low weight and high reps is good for toning and strength gain you do low reps and high weights. However someone recently told me that low reps and high weights is actually for weight gain.... Suggestions?

Also I want to gain my cardio back in order to start playing rugby but I don't want to lose weight, suggestions for that as well?

[QUOTE="harashawn"][QUOTE="keech"]

That's always a hard commandment to figure out. Does this mean obey your parents all the time without question no matter what? Even if they are being unreasonable, or just flat out wrong? I hold to the notion that you can honor someone without being indentured to them, and that just because you honor someone, doesn't mean you have to agree with them. Heck even considering someone as a "formidable opponent" or "worthy adversary" is in a way honoring them.

keech

It means show some respect for the people who gave you life, shelter, food, everything essential for life. If they ask you to do something they think is for the better, do it out of respect even if you disagree. It means if you're tired of being hassled by your stupid parents, move out, get a job, and pay your own bills while you still know everything.

See to me that signifies a lack of respect for ones child. The "do as I say because I said it" mentality doesn't hold water when your child is old enough to start thinking about the world outside of what the parents tell them.

Respect works both ways, if a parent can't respect that their child is a human and individual with their own thoughts and feelings, then the child cannot respect the parent. Even if they go through the motions and do as they are told, they aren't respecting the parent or their wishes. They are just doing it because it's being forced on them.

I love you for saying that, internet love I mean. Tell that to my parents.

Sounds exactly like me. My parents are super religious and I remember when I was in high school I couldn't wait to get out. In my case, letting them know I did not believe in god did not help at all. They pretty much blamed all the things you said they'd blame. To be honest just bear with it for now. Eventually you will start growing up and they will see that they can't shove it down your throat. You are your own individual and they can't do much about that.

I was in Iowa and this girl asked me where I was from and I said I was from Washington, the state. She said I was making it up and that Washington wasn't a state. I asked her if she'd ever heard of Seattle and said that Seattle was in Washington. I even showed her my driver's license.

Another time, I was with my friend from Rochester, NY, and we ran into some other guy from New York. My friend said he was from upstate New York, and this guy said, "no you aren't. Rochester isn't upstate." I stayed out of this, even though I always thought upstate meant anything outside New York City. My friend said, "I live there, and everyone in Rochester calls is upstate."

aransom

People say that but I don't consider anything upstate NY unless it's like 1-2 hours away from where I live. I live about 15 minutes driving distance from the city and people at work have claimed that I live "upstate" according to them. I feel like people who either only live in the city or who aren't from NY would say anything outside of the city is upstate, no offense to you.

And as far as your friend goes, I would consider Rochester upstate NY as well.

Off the top of my head I'd say Scar Tissue-RHCP, Blackbird- The Beatles, Murderers- John Frusciante, Follow you into the Dark- Death Cab for Cutie, but you seem to be suggesting songs from games so I'm not sure.

I don't see what's wrong with it..... mostly because I've done the same....

Those who say that they're probably using you, what does "using" someone imply?
