I prefer talking one-to-one with my 3D Modelling tutor. He helped me a hell of a lot, I'm pretty sure that he helped me more than counseling ever could. Mostly because talking to an awesome person that you know in some way is better than being thrown into a room with some professionally speaking person who you don't know, I would think (never been to counseling).

Counselling was crap.

It's a waste of time. I don't recommend it to anyone

She doesn't talk with me, she talks at me. But cos I went once my parents say I have to go for about 3 more times.

Tell the counselor to **** off or get over it.

I have gotten over it. Not that difficult surprisingly but saying that in my situation is a bit harsh.

If you decide you want Crysis 2 instead, consider this.

SP: 9.5/10 (Bested only by Half Life 2 IMO)

MP: 4/10 (Oh god, the pain!!!)

So yeah, only get Crysis 2 for the singleplayer. I'm not sure if Crysis is the same (Great SP, Bad/No MP)

What's wrong with it?

@NFX: I checked it, and my PC can run it.

The hit detection is bad or the hitbox is tiny, stealth is useless (Drains energy insanely quickly, you have roughly half health by my guesses, you can't shoot guns without losing all your energy, and you can STILL be seen by the experienced player at up to medium range with your clock on!!!), total lack of support, the maps are bad apart from the one from the demo, you can only use 2 guns without getting destroyed, and one is unlocked quite late, 90% of people have online lag and terrible matchmaking issues (Luckily, I avoided these) and melee is absolutely useless, unless you're holding a pistol. And pistols are useless.


But the singleplayer has none of these problems, is very fun, and I would recommend it for the SP.

I hate smartphones. I want a phone that can text, phone, and occasionally take photos. I don't want to be able to browse facebook for one of my contacts, and then fire cartoon avians at them. I hate touchscreen stuff as well, they feel really flimsy. I keep thinking I'm going to break it. Plus if you lose it, you're probably <expletive>ed.

[ty4er]

i want a phone i can use to browse the internet, talk with friends and have a decent camera and a few apps incase i get extremely bored. And for it to not be fragile as sh**

[NFX]

I don't want to browse the internet on my phone, I have a laptop for that. Which would be significantly better than using a phone, given the extra RAM and processing speed that you get with a laptop.

[Enigm@]

Lol my phone's still an old ass nokia from 2005.

[ty4er]

i just want it for quick checks, not for when i have my laptop as i usually dont carry that around with me everywhere.

anyway i win because mine is a nokia 6630 atm :P
its so slow its unbelievable

[NFX]

I have this phone. It's my third so far. First one was a bit crap, then the second one got filled with Mini Cheddars. =D

My phone is a piece of crap, but on the other hand, it's Pay as you Go, it can call, it can text, and it can take photos, so I am happy. I don't want a smart phone because I will just play a sh**ton of games, and then need to phone somebody when the battery is dead. I do like the iPod Touch though. and if you want to avoid breaking it, get a flip case of some sort, it's what I did, and it has saved my iPod on no less than ten occasions, no exaggeration (I've had it for about a year now). But yeah, gaming+internet=high battery consumption. I want my phone to be a phone, and everything else to be something to play games on.

That is my phone.

That's a pretty good track record, I suppose. I've just got a normal 1GB MP3 player, and it does me fine. It's small enough for me to not notice it too much, and I've had it for about three or four years now, it's had any number of drops and knocks, and it has never gone wrong. Even the display still works. =)

[Chaosmancer]

Before the iPod (which got bought for me as a reward for exam results), I had a 2GB Zen Stone Plus, and it worked (and still works) brilliantly. It even works as a memory stick, and the mini-USB fits my PSP too, so that is still being very useful to me, despite the amount it has been used. Heh, that reminds me of the time in secondary school when it got confiscated as I walked in because they believed that it was possible for me to cyber bully somebody with it.

[NFX]

That's a bit of a daft theory. That's like when Furbys were banned from the White House. They thought it could be used as a recording device because they could speak English, when the Furby had no recording software at all.
