Video Games are meant to be entertaining, competitive, and meant to satisfy whatever you need them to do. So who really cares if SC2 is better than DOW2 just as long as you're having fun. When I was posting on the SC2 vs. DOW2 forum arguing that SC2 was going to be way better I stopped myself and realized..why am I doing this! What a waste of time to argue whats better when I enjoy the starcraft series and have fun with it. Who cares if people have more fun with DOW! As a matter of fact, I'm happy they're having fun and I hope DOW2 lives up to their expectations. Videogames should be about fun and lets keep it that way. If some dude has fun playing "Yoda Stories" and thinks its better than DOW or SC then let him think that! Keep Video Gaming for fun and let the critics worry about which game is better.
Why do people argue over which game is better?

People argue over everything. Some people enjoy the intellectual process of the debate, others simply like to vent, others feel an unreasonable alleigance to something - perhaps as a way of identifying themselves - and feel a need to defend it.
Mostly, it's just pissing on trees. It's what the internet is.

agreed. it's a simple question really just made complicated and complex by scientists/philosophers/theologians. one who makes simple things complicated or complex is a fool to himself. past exists for the existence of memories regardless of it being bad or good and for the correction of mistakes. present exists for us to make plans and take actions. future exists for the existence of dreams, goals and objectives. past and future gives the reason of existence of present which makes us do anything.

I don't know what you mean with the people that have it rough. I just don't see what that has to do with what I said. I simply gave you the answer to your question: Why do we do anything?
"Because you will die eventually. So if you don't do anything, you might aswell just kill yourself right now."
1. If you plan not to breath, eat, drink, etc, then you will die. You might aswell not have been born in that case. I think that's obvious, right?
2. Let's pretend you don't have to eat, drink and breath. If you decide to stand at the same spot forever until you die of old age, then you've done the same thing. You might aswell not have been born in that case too. You've only been prolonging number 1, the end result is the same.
So, the thing is that people want to do things because they don't want to die. You eat, drink, breath. You basically do anything to stay alive. These days it means you must go to school, get a job, become a hobo, etc.
If you were immortal for example, then everyone would just perform number 2, sit or stand in one place forever because everything has a point at which you don't want to do it anymore. So eventually you will have nothing to do. Life will be meaningless. Maybe you would sleep all day. Or look at the sky all day. Just know that nobody will want to work, so civilization as we know now, will not exist.
By the way, when I said "I guess I just owned all those scientists/philosophers/theologians" I should have noted that it was sarcasm. Everything I just said above, I've heard from "all those scientists/philosophers/theologians".
Fanboy-ism and the fact that people have a difference of opinion. If you have an opinion on something and you feel strongly about it, most of the time you're going to voice it if someone else's point of view differs. It's just the way we are. If we didn't argue we wouldn't challenge ourselves, develop as people or be able to accept constructive criticism. If the arguments are well-founded and based on facts I see no harm in a good debate. On the other hand, if it is just a personal opinion backed by vague points and nitpicks it probably says more about the person themself than the thing they're arguing about.danb0
that's probably why those of us who don't go to bed with a copy of HalfLife get annoyed at the fact that those who've played it and go on about it endlessly and have Gordon Freeman avatars etc, always act so superior
i've got the RIGHT TO think HL was so boring i gave it up after 30 mins, and that should be the end of it, but it's not enough for these people to play the game and enjoy it, they have to make everyone else like it too

totally agreed. this is what i mean. we all have a time that we do nothing for relaxation, thinking or divine communication with one's self but we will always do something. also, to the person saying people that have it rough then it further proves my point because they have a stronger sense of purpose to do something unless they are lost and lazy. those who have lost the will to live and are lazy thus doing nothing are destined to fail in life. all people will have rough times in a part of their lives anyway. i just had a very rough time too.

well, standing in one spot forever in itself would constitute doing something. so then, saying that 'if you don't do anything, you might as well kill yourself' is just redundant in that it echoes the obvious truth that if you don't do something, you don't exist. i guess i kind of combined your response with lordlors' response, in which he stated 'present exists for us to make plans and take actions. future exists for the existence of dreams, goals and objectives. past and future gives the reason of existence of present which makes us do anything.' but now that i heard your explanation, it doesn't seem like you two are saying the same thing. so my response was mainly to landlors, i guess, after all. the reason i mentioned people who have it tough is that for some people finding meaning for their existence can be tough, because they find themselves in severe hardship. that the present exists to make plans and take action works for us, because we have that luxury. not everyone does. for them, survival is such a life-consuming endeavor that the simple answer that you (landlors) propose is not going to satisfy them.
plus, i mainly responded to you, blackalpha666, because i thought your statement was quite arrogant, but since you said that your statement was meant to be sarcastic, i guess i don't have an issue with you after all. but landlors, some of the greatest minds have probed this question, and it's not as simple as you make it out to be. even you, looking back on your life in the future, may question whether that viewpoint you had then (that you have now, that is) was enough for you to be content with.

ok but it's just simple for me. it's just the same as why do people breathe? why do people eat? why do people sit or stand? i tend not to make it complex like most intelligent people. a better question which is really complex not simple made complex would be what is reality? and what is the purpose of the existence of man?

contradiciton FTL. surviving and finding the meaning of one's existence is already taking action for the goal and objective of making another goal and objective far deeper and meaningful. those who don't bother to find the meaning of their existence and are doing nothing because of their hardships are the ones who have lost the battles in life and are doomed to fail. life is unfair and that's what i don't like about it. why is life unfair?
Video Games are meant to be entertaining, competitive, and meant to satisfy whatever you need them to do. So who really cares if SC2 is better than DOW2 just as long as you're having fun. When I was posting on the SC2 vs. DOW2 forum arguing that SC2 was going to be way better I stopped myself and realized..why am I doing this! What a waste of time to argue whats better when I enjoy the starcraft series and have fun with it. Who cares if people have more fun with DOW! As a matter of fact, I'm happy they're having fun and I hope DOW2 lives up to their expectations. Videogames should be about fun and lets keep it that way. If some dude has fun playing "Yoda Stories" and thinks its better than DOW or SC then let him think that! Keep Video Gaming for fun and let the critics worry about which game is better.

Well, my answer is about people that exist and are alive. If you are alive then you have to do something like standing, sitting, laying, hovering, floating in space, etc. Because, like you said, if you exist then you are doing something. I simply used standing as an example.
Everyone has the luxary of the present (It's not really a luxary because everyone has it). People that have it rough are probably working hard to get money that will allow them to buy things they need to stay alive, just like you said, survival. Maybe they look into their past and they think that they are happy so they will plan to keep on doing whatever they are doing. Maybe they will look into their past and not be satisfied with their life, so they might plan to move away to a different area/country and try their chances there. Or simply just change their life somehow. Maybe they don't know what to change in their life, so they just continue doing whatever they are doing now and simply hope for a miracle to happen that will make their life better.
I've now given you some examples with the past, present and future.
You must note that our responses are simply an answer to why we do things. And it really is simple, you are overthinking it. Our answer wasn't meant to be the answer to the ultimate question and satisfy those people that are poor or have it tough and make them happy by telling them what the purpose of their existance is. Maybe you are confused and thinking that we are talking about the meaning of life, but we are not. What is the meaning of life? I personally don't think we will ever find out.
I think life is unfair so we don't get bored of it.
I have a habit of doing this, partially because I qualify and sometimes quantify the various aspects of each game, then I compare them. In my mind games are clearly better than others, and I sometimes try to get this across
If somebody puts a thread forward about x vs y I'll put my opinion in, but try to avoid arguments. I also don't simply bash games, I see no point in going into threads about games you dislike and saying how much you dislike it - unless its a hate thread.
