    As i mentioned, i wish i had broadband to actually play against different people and at any time rather than odd weekends with the same 5 - 7 people. Why do eircom suck so much!

    And why did it get moved from personal issues? it is a personal issue i want to meet people of the same interests as me hence a personal issue.....

    Just because something is a personal issue to you doesn't mean it belongs in Personal Issues.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 wonderwall_


    really dont think it should have been moved, seeing as he's trying to get girls to reply he's not going to get much luck in the games section tbh. ha ha ha.

    Ok then im open to all opinions, tell me what does constitute a proper post in the personal issue form, if not a personal issue?

    I hate to be annoying but this sounds a bit like Esats excuse when they threw us off the NO LIMITS service, apparently no limits doesnt mean no limits. (Always love getting a dig at the phone companies who have screwed me over :D )

    It's not an excuse.

    Eircom are the dearest company in the world for Internet and Broadband. Rip off Ireland.

    Thats a good find, but cooking i wouldnt worry about, cooking is pretty easy to do, gamer girls on the other hand, the ones i have actually met can usually hold their own in any game genre. Most of these were americans though. :(

    And Gordan you didnt define what a personal issue was. :D

    Unfortunately I suck at Halo...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭R0ot


    Hey i used to suck at halo, but it really is an easy game to get better at. I just wanted to know to many girls play the game, cause ive only ever met like 2....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,484 ✭✭✭✭Stephen


    I too suck at halo, I'm too used to having a keyboard and mouse.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,239 ✭✭✭Gilgamesh


    tbh if you want to meet girls, play something like Sims 2, I think that is the craze at the mo for girls,

    And rainbow, nevermind mind about sucking in Halo, sucking isn't always a bad thing ;)

    why? tbh I would be surprised if he would get two in a hundred girls playing that old game.


    But hey, good luck anyway


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,811 ✭✭✭*Page*


    i play it and i'm a girl and i know at east 4 of my female friends that have played it!


    i only play it in my bf's house (you know quality time) i'm not big into games.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,239 ✭✭✭Gilgamesh


    but would you say you play it so much so you are a Halo maniac?
    Understand the 'quality time' bit, verbally abusing eachother and then blaming it on the game, LOL


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,811 ✭✭✭*Page*


    yup thata us and no i'm not big into it... but i know a few girls big into halo 2


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 18,115 ✭✭✭✭ShiverinEskimo


    Girlfriend has a gamecube and kicks ass at mario kart but she has no interest in halo - or any FPS for that matter. Sort of a girly girl and likes her good humoured cartoony sort of games. Pikmin for example, she's good at that too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭R0ot


    Sorry i should have clarified more when i say 'Halo' i mean the enitre halo range be it just two games its still a range, ive also read the books which were great, i definately like halo 2 better than halo but thats probably cause i play it more.

    I'm not the only one then. Certainly helped with the storyline between the first halo and the second - how he got back and all that. I loved the books.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,304 ✭✭✭✭koneko

    wouldn't it be great if there was a way to play on the xbox with mouse and keyboard and completely deccimate them joypad players?

    mouse + keyboard = no competition.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,811 ✭✭✭*Page*


    I'm not really big into games. when i was younger i was big into *cringe* Tomb Raider but that was about it!

    Halo is not over rated, obviously you havent played it much. Halo is a completely different game with the mouse and keyboard but it doesnt mean that you would whoop all the joypad players, Halo for the pc allowed use of a joypad and id definatley prefer the joypad to the keyboard and mouse for halo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭Steven


    We're all entitled to our opinions. It's just that some opinions are wrong ;)
    A slightly below average mouse/keyboard player will annihilate a better than average joypad player every time.

    Also, congratulations are in order for the biggest stretch of a definition I've heard all week.

    Illegally downloading tremendous amounts of music and movies is a personal issue for me because I'm downloading them for my personal use. PI here I come. :cool:
