Not too convince about Deus Ex 3 yet, it’ll be set before the first game and I’m never too excited about prequels.

And yes, it definitely has been! :)

And I should give the second one another chance too. They are currently working on a new third game: http://www.deusex3.com/ – it sounds awesome.

And it has been great talking to you on here =]

I have heard many good things about it though.

As for DE 2, I liked it for the first 75% of the game, the story is quite good and I liked the ability to pretty much choose the gameplay.

One day I’ll try it again!

I see one of your favourite games is Deus Ex Invisible War, have you played the original Deus Ex? I played a demo of the second one and didn’t think it came close to the original, but I’ll have to give it another go. The original is an amazing game, you should definitely get it.

I’ve never had all the emotional attachement to all the games everyone else played, like Zelda, Mario, Final Fantasy and all that! ;)

These are my favourite Xbox 1 games, maybe you’ve played some on the PC? http://carocat.co.uk/games/favourite-xbox-games/

One day I’ll make that list for the 360 games!

Looking by your blog you’re quite a large Xbox360 player?

I’ve seen on your blog that you play games, do you only have a Wii and a PC?

Out of interest, do you get a lot of problems with your name and either confusion or jokes about the cook?!

The only place where I don’t mind it being used is when gaming, as you can’t help abbreviating words when you are being shot at =]

Of course there are exceptions, everyone’s mispelled a word accidentally
before.

I don’t pull out my hair when I see bad grammar because I am not an idiot. When they are using IM programs they are not illiterate, they are saving time.

However it is a different matter when they are writing an e-mail or a letter.

So you use your electronic devices with your own permission? ;)

The occasional abbreviation I don’t mind, it’s more the constant shortening of words and completely changing the language that gets to me.

I sometimes send messages with missing words and abbreviations like “Taking off. Back four hrs.” but realize that such messages are sent while I’m actually in command of an airplane, and perhaps you will forgive me. (I can use electronic devices on board with the captain’s permission, and yay, I’m the captain.)

By the way, I am with this “Movement” all the way!

I’m afraid neither Matt or myself can take credit for that. We both frequent many internet forums (one is even the same!) and Matt came accross the banner somewhere, placed it as his signature and I just thought it was too good to pass by.

So after a discussion on msn we made the posts on 2 forums and got varied responses. Everyone who uses txt spk has no problem with it and everyone else is really, really annoyed with it.

I really do want to create this movement. The English language needs to be saved. Kids don’t know what they’re doing. Any suggestions?

Cat. :D

Can I join the movement and steal the banner please? Obviously, appropriate back-linking would be set in place.

Alternatively I would happily start an official “movement” and invite for joining all those that I steal the idea from.

thx. ;)

Sorry, had to be done! I hate it that much that I even ranted about it in my “About” page!

All the best

Collin

And don’t come on my blog again with that kind of typing. ;)

Innit i’m wth u all da way

But I can understand people that don’t use it and that use txt speak to abbreviate it. Just about anyway.

We really should make this a movement.

Save the poor little vowels from extinction!
