Seriously though, neither kicking or throwing a ball take much skill but breaking trough a well formed opponents defence and scoring a goal with three people covering you isn't something a person without skill can accomplish. Be it football or handball or hockey or anything basically. |
i think we'll just have to agree to disagree ;) |

hahaha. yeah, baseball sucks the wang :D its like a slightly more interesting version of cricket (only coz of the fights).
as far as the olympics goes, i dont quite understand the addition of sports that have other levels of competition that blatantly "out-rank" the olympics. seems a bit cheap and self serving.
but soccer, NFL, motor racing, ice hockey. they get me hard in the trousers. but i certainly dont get into all sports any more than im into all computer games :)
and also, handball doesn't compare to any of the sports thus far mentioned. if i had to pick the sport that would be the easiest to compete at @ the olympic level, it would have to be one of the choices floating around. man.
like seriously. how can you even compare a game like baseball to handball in terms of skill? haha, all you need is a physical presence and an ability to catch/throw a ball. something any 9 year old could be taught to do.
and probably for homos. present compant excepted :D |

oh, its that old chestnut :D
whilst i agree that UT99 was an awesome title, the physics, weapon balance, lack of "head shot!" and less team-orientated gameplay in q3 suited me more. and for the gameplay types that i really did enjoy in UT (like the "realistic" mod that shipped with original UT) the bots always tended to suck (we're talking at a time where twitch shooters online blew chunks in aust of course, and Q3 is what was getting played in my neck of the woods at the time).
i also think some of the UT maps lacked the design professionalism that id had at that time.
q3 had the elegant simplicity that i am after in a that kind of shooter for the 1v1 deathmatch. |

| olympics suck ass. most of the sports nobody cares about and there are quite a few that are just there so that the usa can get easy medals. it's also too political with all these heads protesting tibet and darfur just to get attention for themselves. not to mention doping which will inevitably come out years from now. |
