. Can you believe the voting age is 16? Holy fuck what 16 year old doesn't want independence?

From what I've seen in polls a lot of young people are against independence. It's also pretty bullshit Scots living in England/Wales don't get to vote, even though they will surely be given citizenship in the case of independence.

It's a load of bollocks really. Slimy Alex Salmond, former oil exec, trying to get a piece of the action Norway has and Scotland isn't the same creature as a homogeneous Scandinavian nation at all. Say goodbye to all those nice benefits, free university education and the NHS and get ready for 20+ years of crushing hardship (seriously). For what?

Yeah it is probably the pinnacle of story in a video game and certainly the best RPG ever made. Did you know they're making a sequel called Torment: Tides of Numenera? Pretty exciting.

Similar games, there's the obvious other infinity engine games like BG series and IWD. Nothing really comes close to the depth of the story in Planescape but Arcanum is probably the closest thing, has a great story and really cool unique steampunk fantasy setting.

I remember I got a disc with the beta on off the cover of a magazine like 15 years ago. I had a god awful PC and dial-up back then so couldn't really be bothered with it but had a few friends who were really into it. Surprised the servers are still up but then a lot of those old MMOs seem to stick around for years like DAoC is still up, so is EQ I think.

Portal and Portal 2, guess you could call them classics, they got enough good reviews and so on. Been sitting on my hard drive for a couple of years but never in the mood to play them.

Almost any console game that wasn't released on N64 I have never played, but can't say I'm really bothered.

Played it through on Xbox and it was pretty good but never got into online or anything. Looking forward to the PC release.
