Lets say I put my brain in a robot body...

[SnakeySnakey]

and in the future, theres a war between robots and humans. Whos side am I on?

[borox0]

You want to be on humans but they shoot you cause u robot, you slowly die on the pavement

[Hitman079]

it would really be up to you, but in essence you'd be on the human side. you may not possess human flesh but you still possess the human mind and spirit.

[Neoteny]

I imagine it wouldn't work and you'd just be dead.

[Hitman079]

Seemingly such a simple question wrought with so many ways such a situation could be impossible..

[reminisco]

you are rejected by both sides, because you are a cyborg.

however, this eventually works in your favor, because the humans the robots end up killing so many of each other that you and the cyborgs you build out of the remains of the dying humans and damaged robots become an unbeatable army.

just be careful when the fighting gets to Kamatchka, i hear that motherfucker is a bitch.

Robots, they have the advantage of being invincible with the right exoskeleton.

not if their flip-flop override device is damaged. no way.

i know a lot about robot killer assassins. i've seen Terminator 2 like 500 times.

My current understanding of the brain leads me to believe that such a technology, even if possible, will not be available in Snakey's lifetime. My imagination died long ago, by the way. With my religion.

[SnakeySnakey]

Okay, so I guess you would be on the human side. But will the cyborgs be really discriminated against? I dont want to live on a reservation.

I mean what if I want food, will humans be able to tell if Im a robot or not?

Cyborgs were pretty damn cool in Tiberian Sun.

[reminisco]

actually, this should be a non concern...

not with companies like Old Glory Insurance here to help:

(when they grab you with those metal claws you can't break free. because they're made of metal. and robots are strong.)

You just made me smile... I just started replaying the series...

[Hitman079]

*gasp* A fellow C&C lover! I myself am a Red Alert 2 commander.

you won't need food. all you'll need for fuel is old peoples' medicine.

I destroy any and all who stand in my path. My weapon of choice is the original commando.

"I've got a present for ya!"

[SnakeySnakey]

old people medicine? would I need it for my brain causes it ages twice as fast?

What if I grew a tumor in my brain, will I survive?

[reminisco]

not sure i want to admit it, but i love C&C too.

there's prolly a lot of C&C lovers here, kind of similar concepts, the two games. (and Generals was definitely a good synthesis of all that had come before in the series)

"China will grow larger"

"C4 knockin' at your door!"
For some reason I've always loved using Marines in RTS games.
Though not powerful, my favorite vehicle to use in TS was the...wolverine, it was called?

Pah! Generals? It was all right, but my God, was the game slow-paced
Yes, I loved using China. Hackers FTW.

I have snapped up every single C&C output... except for that one game... I like all three of the lineages' styles. I hope they continue all of them for a while... I'm pretty sure Kane will never die, and there's always room for more tiberium...

Mammoth MKII for the win! What can I say, I've always been a brute force kinda guy.

I was kinda worried when they stopped carrying the Westwood logo, but I'm glad the quality hasn't slipped.

[Hitman079]

Sadly, Neoteny, we won't be able to talk C&C much because you seem to prefer the Tiberium series while I prefer the Red Alert series
...and Red Alert 3 comes out soon! From what I've seen, though, it sounds like there's no way it can be as good as RA2
If interested, there's a wikipedia article.

I like them all equally (that was the three lineages thing: tiberium wars, red alert, generals). I'm totally stoked about RA3. I'm sure it'll be better than you expect.

And just look at those graphics...

[Neoteny]

Kane's wrath apparently is due out and will have the wolverines and such in it. I'm pretty stoked.
