Where's the kopi drinking poet who drives jet-black Land Cruisers and reads book at Chinatown leh?
Anyway, one thing I realise is that many youths are quite ignorant about this world that they live in, and it's a phenomenon happening around the world.
Only WTO protestors and Arab insurgents seem to know more about the world and are participating in it, though in a violent manner. -

precisely. ask them who's the Prime Minister, some will shake their head and tell you they want to play Dota.Originally posted by Saint Valentine:they dont bother to knowledge themselves....

It gave my mind a sense of independence when u know are the player is alone in a huge spaceship fighting monsters..The monsters which can represent your inner demons, perhaps so? -

suspect it has something to do wif our environment...our time..studies was not stressful...mind was not so clogged with examns issues so we start to look and learn about things around us more...being an extrovert..rather than introvert...

i think in my whole life, I only had to worry when exams came, Os As etc..besides that, school was quite alright.Originally posted by Saint Valentine:suspect it has something to do wif our environment...our time..studies was not stressful...mind was not so clogged with examns issues so we start to look and learn about things around us more...being an extrovert..rather than introvert...
now Uni is not that easy but still.. -
perfect on the mark..which i wanted to say...true indeed....because..game sof the doom and quake era had require the player to "survive, conserve, analyse and deal with stress"...In order to do it, u need to be n tune witht he game environment...like closing doors and which area can the monsters can corner u ect.....if u see flying monsters in quake.u know which weapons to use.probably a chaingun to nail the suckas...U know chaingun is rapidfire...could hit them more.....But if u see the huge slow moving mechanical robots which inflict mass damage using rockets..u stay far off from them and pick them from afar using a long range projectile weapon..if u see those fast charging monsters with he huge blade on their arms..shotgun will keep them away...u know long range weapons slow reload wont work...Originally posted by LazerLordz:I think it gave us heightened awareness. -
the kinds of games now...rather disappointed with them...team based strategy and the crap..instead of the lone hero , they have artificial AI working together like in Halo...Your mind will not get a sense of independence of urgency...And players play them to find out the story to see fancy graphic effects..Games have become like a storybook which u just flip thru to find out the next chapter..

The intense fear and suspense of playing Quake and Doom still haunts me today...
-

Gibbed and gibbed.
I stopped playing games, went back to MUD. -
Quake and Doom had basically no story..an initial prologue of the situation and then u are on your own tour de force..the environment and game concept, levels and mood tell a story by themselves...
-
Quake and doom, u can run but u cant hide..the monsters will hunt u down..u have only 1 choice kill them...to survive or die..
-
for a 90 game like Quake running on only a pentium below 300mhz, the inteliigence of the suckas is scary indeed..The kind which spew grenades..the suckas are the most intelligent..if u are hiding they know it..then they use their grenades to flush u out..The next in line are the flying kind..they usually fly to u in a confusing well planned coordinated manner...the dumbest are the Giant mechanical slow moving ones...but what they lack in in intelligence they make it up with brute massive damage...
-
dun generalise till like tt leh.. u just happened to see those not so nice one mah..
say until machiam ppl from this age group all useless like that..

Quake and Doom lessons should be enforced in school. This way students will think twice before dropping out in school. And who knows, if theres ever an alien invasion, We're well prepared.

It's the result of the expectations and teachings from the previous generations.Originally posted by Saint Valentine:15-20 age group...see them..they cant think cant talk properly..many just hang around viod deck and park..dyed their hair..ask them a simple question...only say I dont know...damn blur...no creativity at all...they only intererest...eat sleep and wakeup, dress and go see their frens.....dressing also not veri good...like 80s tramps..lidat...welcome to tramps country..what the hell is wrong?!..ten yrs back, teens veri active, play sports...go east coast play BBQ...play clubbing..play party..u talk to hip-hop funky them..they talk back same way....Now just look at u stare like blur king

Playing games makes me think faster, and makes my hands more flexible.
Playing Final Fantasies makes me learn more about Greek Mythology and basically any myths and legends.
Playing Time Crisis makes my aiming better. -
..ya..i feel likewise.. the previous generation of young persons ...most clever
problem with nowawadayz..they too complacent..Anyway, one thing I knew is that many are quite ignorant .. -
I think last time during my era pai kia more friendly...
