I'm looking forward to the next Alien vs Predator game. I'm hoping they do it justice... the first was AWESOME.... the second was a mixed bag of awesome and crappy. However, playing as a marine in that game can be freakish... hearing aliens skittering about in the dark, trying to avoid face huggers.

As for dead space... I didn't get very far. I was pretty bored, then got stuck at some puzzle or other and was like, screw it.

Wow, susprised at the level of graphics. That does look rather interesting. I never really heard of it, which kind of surprises me, seeing as I was free to play anything in 98' while you guys were spending time sleeping in halls with loads of other men (sausagefest!). JK

just for the record, there were women in my military units. Just not very many, and most were pretty manly.

Same barracks, yes. Same rooms, no. Same showers, no. Same tents in the field, yes (but they were platoon tents, not 2-person tents).

Did anyone ever fool around in the field tents (male-female I mean)? Or did you ever hear rumours about gay action in your platoon? I have no idea how big a platoon is and am too lazy to google it, but I'll assume it's big enough for off-hand gay rumours.

around 50 people in a platoon. Gay action - no, though some peeps were definitely gay. Male on female action... yea, probably. But nothing concrete. No one getting court martialed for it that I know of.

But man, after two weeks of sleeping in a tent, you tend to get a little wound up, let me tell you. Wandering off into the desert for a couple minutes alone with a bush just looks better and better.
