This has it's good side and it's bad side. I can see the positive applications in the from the advertisers point of view but come on do we need to be bombarded @ every instant w/ mind numbing ads!! ack...someone said earlier "just what I need SPAM on my cell/pager" hehehe so true..it's coming...our cars will be telling us to wash w/ Armor All soap and fill up on ESSO gas and be sure to buy a Mars bar while your in the gas station ug.. I was watching this tech show they other day and this is where I first heard of this new application for GPS and they were calling it Airvertising. So, I can see that it now has and acutal "name"......it's coming! Wireless ads through the air aaah! no place is safe now!
What are your thoughts on HALO both graphically and what is claiming to offer gameplay-wise and what do you think of Tom Barbalet's efforts w/ his nervana project (Psi engine)? Do you see id's next game as perhaps being what we all dreamed the original quake would be, a game in a huge world populated by players that can roam freely among various landscapes (ie: realistic forests, rolling hills, lakes, etc...maybe even w/ the planned quake hammer too hehe). Hardware is at the point that you can implement these landscapes/features...so why not? capsule
