[QUOTE="MGibster, post: 9349215, member: 4534"] I'm only going to go by the first movie because all the movies that followed it were crap. Every. Single. One. In the first movie, in addition to becoming mortal, being able to sire children, and not having to worry about cutting your head cut off, winning the Prize allows MacCleod to read thoughts and he hopes to use this power to bring peace and understanding to humanity. Presumably had Kurgan won he'd usher in some sort of dark violent age. Part of the Prize is just having the opportunity to live a normal life. I don't think living forever was a punishment, but there definitely a downside and it's that you watch your loved ones die. Connor lost his wife, and I think that's where "Who Wants to Live Forever" first plays, and later we see his adopted daughter who appears to be older than he is. We see how Conner lives, from his start being exiled from his home, and he lives a pretty lonely life. [/QUOTE]
