Damsels everywhere

The reason that the damsel in distress theme exists (and has existed for thousands of years) is probably because for much of human history, women had very little social power in comparison to men, which itself stemmed from the fact that human males are generally physically larger and stronger than females. Ever since the stories of the Ancient Greek Heroes (and probably much earlier), the protagonists of most stories have had something special about them (often greater than normal physical strength)...

The KYM Summer Vidya-Playing Club

I really liked the suggestion near the top of page one, suggesting Rise of Nations, Empire Earth, and other strategy games. Unfortunately It might be somewhat impractical because those games are rather old and possibly difficult to find and still somewhat expensive. I don’t know if any been put up for digital distribution.

Who would win in a fight?

Of all the playable characters in the big 3 valve games (Tf2 Portal and Half Life) who would win? I think it really comes down to if you base the toughness of TF2 characters off their in-game stats or bring them to reasonable, realistic levels, (ie rocket jumping would kill you)

Gravity Gun or Portal Gun?

I think the only real problem with the gravity gun is its extreme mass. Alyx has trouble even lifting it, much less carrying it around all day. Even so, I think i’d prefer the gravity gun to the portal gun, mainly because i’m less likely to get myself killed with it. I would just have to bulk up and probably attach some sort of counterweight to the back to better balance it.

Superpowers!

Well, because you’re already dead, I guess I just sit around until I die and my reincarnation powers kick in.
