They should know better by now.

Yeah, it wasn't so bad after all. But I'm afraid they'll throw a big party on new years eve...

It's the Half-Life 2 Source engine. Surely you'll be alright with that.

I don't know, never played Half Life 2. ^^

It's a modern game. Only goes back to 2004.

I guess I could play it for a few hours then. But I still suck at first person view. I played Fallout 3 for quite some time now and I still have some difficulties with the orientation. ^^

Nope, we'll have to find her.

OMG! She's missing in action!

Yep, she's missing in dragon on dragon action.

And she didn't turn up yet. How disappointing.

Ah, I know how annoying that is. My dad is often turning up his music as well and since the wall between me and his computer room is so thin, I keep hearing the bass through my wall. Even when his music is not even that loud.

I heard new ones are being produced though, and new LP's are being produced as well. A friend of mine bought an LP player which was only a few years old at some thrift store. It didn't cost him too much. He also bought a whole set of old LP's, which was pretty nice.

Yes, some of the larger stadiums in Europe have (retractable) roofs. Some teams also play on artificial turf so that the pitch conditions will be better in case of bad weather. But most of the smaller clubs can't afford such investments and thus the football season usually has a break around the Christmas holidays.

Yeah, there are still LP players produced, but for a really good one you have to spend quite some money.
Also, most music sounds better on LP. A reason for this is the so called loudness war (you cannot record the music as "loud" on a LP or else the needle would jump, thus LPs are recorded at a lower loudness level), For more information look at this youtube video.
Of course, sometimes the formula "louder = better" holds true sometimes, but in the long run, it's just TOO loud. I know from many people who don't enjoy listening to music as much as they did in earlier days. I once read an article, that todays music just is stress for the ears, because of the loudness.
It's a shame how record companies destroy music and blame it on the customers. :(
