Fahrenheit

LukeG writes "As games developers constantly seek new methods of tapping into the mass market, the French team at Quantic Dream have taken their inspiration from the television in developing 'Fahrenheit', what they claim will be the world's first interactive TV series, an episodic 3D-adventure set in New York. Here's a full look at this interesting development." See the company's website (Flash-only, unfortunately); or there are several other previews out there (1, 2).

    What is up with still using this old fashioned measurement for temperature? The rest of the world has been switched over to the metric system for decades now, why is the USA always playing catch-up? (and not doing a very job at it)

    Video games are great.
    Television is marvelous.

    The problem?
    I don't know about everyone else but it seems that the "kids these days" do nothing but sit around and watch TV or sit around and play video games. Neither of the two really provide anything mentally stimulating...

    (granted there are games and shows that do have redeeming qualities. But even still, if you sit and watch Jeopardy for 8 staight hours, you might learn somethhing, but you still just wasted 8 hours of your life watching Jeopardy).

    ...Point is the last thing anyone in this world need is the combination to the two most mind dulling activities known to man.

    For the record I have nothing against Jeopardy or video games and have myself sat infront of the TV or PC doing either for an obscene amount of time.

    Good Day and Good Gaming.

    Doesn't often happen. Even over at my site, the number of intelligent people using moderation to reward people is far exceeded by the number of assbites who sit around and turn moderation into a pissing match. Fortunately, we don't get a lot of angsty whistleblowers pissing up a rope and posting shit metamod comments like yours. Thank God.
