haha. No wonder you're an Honours student. You formulate your arguement so persuasively. XD


And btw, if you want to have proper "reaction/reflex" skills do a sport of some kind. It's good for you, and it requires you to think on the spot with pressure. Unlike those of CS where it's mainly "OO!! BAD GUY! POINT AND CLICK"
Although I don't consider games a complete sport, you're seriously underestimating the strategy and skills required in competitive CS.

sure, if you play professionally and in a clan who competes. But why do that? that's just a waste of time.

Why woul u put
"I was part of a CS clan who was in the top10 in ausralia" in ur resume?
sports would be much better in your resume.

so are any of you, or have any of you, intentionally avoided getting games, because you know you'd waste alot of time playing it?
(particularly HSC year)

it's going to be pretty hard for me.
my hsc starts next term (im in year 11),

and gta IV for pc is coming out, mafia 2 is coming out next year, test drive unlimited 2 (apparently) is coming out next year, as is the godfather 2, and starcraft 2. (funny how they're all sequels eh?)

i completely avoided WoW for that sole reason.
not just for wasting time that i could be spent studying (i never study up untill recently), but i didnt want to waste my time in a pointless game (though you WoW fags will probably tell me otherwise).

so any suggestions?

i think after the HSC next year, im going to get all those games, and G25 steering wheel. hopefully i won't have to upgrade, as i got a new computer this year (q6600, 4gb ram, 8800gts). im pretty sure i can run all those games on max (if not, i'll just overclock) :p.

so how are you going to avoid games?
any tips?

taking your computer away seems to work,
but i need it for the internet.
Play more games, Fuck your future, Enjoy the present
