oh yes, there is a fourth hidden ending in which there's a party and everyone dances ..probably the most sensible choice really.. I like the new dark age ending because it fits in with my anarchistic views on government and it's the only ending in which you get to blow sh*t up. :twisted: But the AI ...

Allright I know some of you have played the masterpiece that is 'Deus Ex'. If not then go play it after beating yourself with a stick running through the centre of town as punishment. It is every bit the 'required viewing' that GitS is. Once you reach the endgame after slaughtering hordes of opponen...

In short yes it is, although I'm not sure if they come out and say it directly. That is the first of many paper cranes to appear and they make it more obvious towards the end.

I don't know how you lot manage to learn Japanese, I've tried so many times to learn to speak japanese now but have got nowhere. I can speak fairly fluent french, german, BSL and some russian and Bahasa-indonesia; I just don't know what it is about trying to learn Japanese just makes my mind pop. :?...

anything but drum n' bass.

pfft... sleep is for mortals. All my best work is done when I'm sleep deprived and being sustained only by caffine and haribo. But then after a couple of nights sans sleep I get paranoid and try to make war on the ninjas who stalk my attic... in conclusion; sleep = annoying but probably worthwhile. ...
