I mean just for research purposes. It's easier to access all sorts of information without having to go to a library and dig through mountains of books.
Yeah you can still do that but I'm just saying information is more easily accessible now.

Plus afaik the grading systems they have now are a joke. Back in my day you could be passing all year with your work, then come exam time if you failed it would drag your final grades right down.

People still get away with plagiarism all the time. Even in universities.

Actually in my secondary school it was ultimately your final exam which determined everything, hell the Junior Certificate and Leaving Certificate are the only ones which actually have any lasting effect so it's all down to two exams and coursework doesn't matter that much at all (not for learning but for final results).

Maybe it has changed here again idk. But it did get a lot easier in more recent years compared to the early 90's.

I don't actually recall the failure rate for my final year...but I doubt many, if any, failed*
There was one guy I knew that repeated year 9 and another repeated year 10.

Spoiler warning:

That was pretty unusual. Both those guys left school before doing year 12 (final year).
*Private school, lack of boob distractions etc
Substantial failure rates for public schools weren't odd back then.

I just posted that because I was looking for this -

Not very well equipped are you, little man?

Nope

Since it's december are we setting up a secret santa thing again?

[deadlegion]

Spoiler warning:

Hikers find a secret grove of extra-terrestrial marijuana and must fight for their lives when they anger the other-worldly forces protecting the plants.

Ya I just consider it like DQ or FF, the number means nothing.

Alundra 2 is a fine game though, the lighter theme is much nicer than the uber dark theme of the first.

The Art design of A2 is much more appealing as well.

Lol stop it.

Yes. You may all pitch in and get me a PS4!!!

There was a good deal going on here recently for a PS4 with the Uncharted collection and God of War 3 for 400 bucks!!!


Of course I would probably also need one of them new fangled TVs to go with it.

A small (like 60cm) 1080p tv shouldn't cost much at all. Just a cheap one.
You don't need a hueg tv.

Also you'll need plus if you get a PS4.

Yeah I got Uncharted trilogy and some other games bundled but I payed more than $400 (well I didn't really because I traded some stuff).

Yeah I keep a loose eye on prices for those and they've really come down in the last few years. Could prolly find a decent little guy for aa couple hundred.

Does PS4 run PS3 games?? I had a nice list going with ps+ when I had my ps3 and if I got it again they'd be available again right? I most likely will just get a PS3 again anyways.
