Architecture Student here. Spent 3 years in UNILAG engineering, now in UNILAG Architecture 100L. Why? Hated engineering.

I'll read all that has been said after posting this, so bear with me.

There needs to be a revolution. It's not the schools, I think. I'm in a class with a lot of bright minds. I think it's more or less because everyone out there in this country are mostly looking for something generic, or just a building so they can go about their business, maybe so they have to spend less, it's more or less the same state as Nigerian Soundtracks. Filmmakers are less willing to meet Don Jazzy for a soundtrack that costs 35K and would prefer to meet a JJC who just learnt music production who is willing to do it for 3K or less... but I digress.

I heard about an oyinbo architect that designed a mad building for a bank, and the reaction was "What the hell is this rubbish? Mo o fe kini yii o!" He had to tone down the design before they agreed.

All the same, Rome wasn't built in a day. I will never stop believing in this country. Little by little, the mentality of people is changing. I believe that in the nearest future, Nigerian architects will have the freedom to truly express their innovation. Afterall, look at some of GT Bank's designs. It could be better, but it's an attempt, and I applaud them.

tl;dr version: Nigeria has a lot of intelligent and bright minds. The problem is freedom of expression, methinks.

I know this is late, but I am now one.

I have to say, that picture's design is MAD. I love how all the interplaying elements come together.

I am definitely interested... It's just the Time factor.

Currently playing: The Cave, Psychonauts, R6 Vegas 2, COD Black Ops 2, Far Cry 2, Black Mesa.

Games I have solely for multiplayer (with my friends, I study Architecture)= Shank, Team Fortress 2.

Waiting for Dishonored DLC, Wasteland 2, The Walking Dead Season 2 (Episodic Adventure) and SC Blacklist.

Lord_Reed: Grim Fandango! Men how can I get this game?!

I simply torrented it... And as it is an old game, some sites have it for free... I think.

Playing: Prototype 2, Bioshock, The Sims 3. Also replaying games from my childhood like Grim Fandango, Interstate '76 and Revenant. Preparing to get both Arkham Batman games, Bioshock 2, Deus Ex Human Revolution and DISHONORED!

On other people's systems, I'm playing Crysis 2 SF vs Tekken

BTW, what's the size of Dishonored torrent?

Time has passed, so I'll say this: It's for a drawing project. All your answers have helped, but I want to know what to look for when drawing faces to make them look distinguished. I, for example can guess someone's origin based on their eyes and face. I used to have a social studies note about the subject in question (worldwide, the Czech look different from the Persians), but I lost it years ago, hence my asking.

Games I'm waitn for: Dishonored, Bioshock Infinite, Hitman Absolution, The Walking Dead episode 5, AC3...

Games coming out in a while: Watch Dogs, Fallout 4, Wasteland 2...

I have an idea for that myself. Make a comic, then find someone to animate it for me. The thing is, my ideas aren't geared towards children but towards teens and young adults. It can be done, but a way needs to present itself first.

I'm really liking this... The world needs to see that we Nigerians can make our own stuff. I have a few ideas for games myself but I can't use Blender too well yet. One thing I practice doing is making adaptive game soundtracks... Could I test one on split assassin?!

Bump.

Like the title says, what physical characteristics and features distinguishes us Nigerians? Like the way you see someone and know he's Calabar, or you see another one and know she's Fulani.

What are the physical features that makes one actually look Yoruba or Igbo, for instance? E.g. Shape of eyes, facial structure, forehead size etc.

Please answer, it's for a project.

kombats: guys, since the closing down of megaupload and co., I have been searching thoroughly for any site to download pc games. Can any of u help me out? Can download any game no matter the size 10x to my swift 4g modem. Thanks.

Am I allowed to recommend Demonoid?

ritchboy: ^^ Alan Wake's American Nightmare was released last month.

Correct!

UK Bobo:
I fear a Nigerian man would marry a corpse if there was a fresh visa attached to the cadaver.

E fit happen, sadly...

I depends on the girl in question, actually.
