    That's true. That's utterly, utterly true.
    Did you know that the makers of the game are swedish?

    BF2 kills CS? That's the stupidest thing I've heard in a very long time, friend.

    No, not really. The whole idea of the game beats CS, and it beats CS badly. It's like a improved version of CS with a in-game purpose.
    It's a fact. CS is owned.

    BF2 is okay, but it lack "OOMF" beyond the "omyfukingodthereare64playersonthismap" type of "OOMF". And How about CS: Source?

    CS: Source sucks horse's ass.

    @Wolfsbane: You can repeat that over and over again to yourself, it still won't change the fact that BF2 sucks compared to CS.

    Seriously don't grave-dig when you haven't got anything to say.

    6 days is enough to make it a gravedig?

    Btw, I really enjoyed Doom 3 and Riddick: escape from butcher bay. Completed them both a few weeks ago over one weekend.

    i think gravedigging in this forum is defined as "if nobody has replied in three days, the thread is dead"

    Hmm, 3 days? I'm sure I've been told that before, but my memory ain't what it used to be :p

    If you do it in two topics on the same time and your posts are just one stupid sentence, then it's a grave dig.

    If you post big, long texts then it's usually ok.

    What!? First gravedigging is 2 weeks, then it's 1 week, now it's 3 days!! Damn, never knew 6 days were considered gravedigs. Oh and besides, get 3D Wolfenstein, I mean it. It owns CS any day (Oh and btw that's like 5 am for me, so my brain was probably broken at that time).

    You're probably right. Return to the castle Wolfenstein was a fucking miracle. It's so bad that it's great. I just had to repeat this, even if I suspect i already wrote it in another forum. Sorry, Mathboy.

    My "favourite" game was Half Life 2. I couldn't get lost even for a short time with the car.

    Just a tip for future posting: Don't grave dig. That means digging up old subjects like this one. Otherwise, you're doing fine. Welcome to Terra-arcanum!

    Yes, yes. I know it. But I don't understand why it is such a bad thing. I mean, it is (mainly) a roleplaying forum. And looks like gravedigging is a main sin. This seems... strange. :)

    Personally I like to go back to old things (to play old games, to listen to /relatively/ old music, ...), and I found best not to try every new thing.

    Thank you. I found Terra-Arcanum VERY useful.

    I thought the gravedigging thing didn't apply for GD. :/
    Yeah, T-A is an example of what a wonderful country the Internet might be.

    Yes, this land is great indeed. That's why I decided to stay here. Although I admit being a lurker for some time some years ago.
