I introduced my non-gaming father to it and he was instantly hooked, in a similar way you were to halo (if you get halo 3 check out the cortana mission!). <br /> As a gamer myself, i can tell you that 99% of the time your looking between the end of your gun and whatever your trying to shoot, regardless of the architecture.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-93722064719555333.post-14965873722879642942010-08-04T09:16:37.588-07:002010-08-04T09:16:37.588-07:00There is a great comment by a gamer about "3D...There is a great comment by a gamer about "3D dreaming." How old is the idea that we dream in B&W? Does that predate motion pictures? I remember learning that is school and arguing with friends about it - some remembered colors others didn't - does that mean X is a generation on the cusp?starwarsmodernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06128785816151813198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-93722064719555333.post-35172549173851970732010-08-04T09:01:54.463-07:002010-08-04T09:01:54.463-07:00Your 7th paragraph reminded me of an article from ...Your 7th paragraph reminded me of an article from the New Scientist from a couple of years ago:<br /><br />" [Murzyn] asked 60 subjects - half of whom were under 25 and half of whom were over 55 - to answer a questionnaire on the colour of their dreams and their childhood exposure to film and TV. The subjects then recorded different aspects of their dreams in a diary every morning."<br /><br />"Only 4.4% of the under-25s' dreams were black and white. The over-55s who'd had access to colour TV and film during their childhood also reported a very low proportion of just 7.3%. But the over-55s who had only had access to black-and-white media reported dreaming in black and white roughly a quarter of the time." <br /><br />[ http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn14959-its-black-and-white-tv-influences-your-dreams.html ]LRJP!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16045080494005095304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-93722064719555333.post-48246135717374907292010-08-04T08:59:42.638-07:002010-08-04T08:59:42.638-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.LRJP!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16045080494005095304noreply@blogger.com
