I like Kart. The GC versions was pretty crappy. The Wii versions goes back to more of the great N64 version. Good new features are online play in Vs, battle, and time trials. Try downloading some of the world record holding ghosts in the time trials, it's impressive.
I just wish they had brought back the short oval track from the GC.
I still have a functioning copy Herzog. My 6 year-old was playing with my old Genesis over the summer, so I've actually played it in the last year. That game has intense PvP.
It's definitely an RTS, even if you control the main unit on the board directly. I'd say it's more similar to the C&C style games than it is different. Most of the differences are b/c it's a console game instead of PC. You get money by taking over mini-bases, make and command units, and win by destroying the enemies base.
Dune 2 was an awesome game. Every time I play a modern C&C game, I always lament the absence of the Dune-style transports. It was so rewarding to watch them fly your harvesters around the board.
I agree, the machines are really nice. If you can live with a raw batter, its a really quick process.
One tip, if you're making cookies and cream ice cream, freeze the cookies first, then you can just break them up in a zip lock with a hammer. If they aren't frozen, the white stuff smears all over, plus the batter freezes better when the cookies are cold.
What I don't understand about Mag-Lev's, is how they don't consume an inordinate amount of power - which isn't to say that they don't, I just don't see how they can't. If they worked with natural magnets on the train, and natural magnets on the track, I could see them being efficient, but everything I've seen shows the trains using electromagnets. Unlike a wheeled train which uses no energy to sit above the track, you'll need gobs of continuous power just to float the train, and you haven't even left the station yet. Am I wrong?
If that were true, then they would be piling up on the shelves, which I haven't seen. If they aren't sitting on the shelves, and sales are down, then they aren't releasing as many to the stores.
Maybe they are cutting shipments to build inventory for the Christmas season. If they already know they can't meet this year's Christmas demand, this may the part of a strategy to minimize the number of angry Christmas shoppers.

Now that's irony, and so we can see that in the circle of life, the hacker will eventually become the hackee.
Exactly! Aren't fiber optic cables REALLY delicate? I don't think they can handle the abuse of a ubiquitous USB cord you throw into your laptop bag haphazardly.
You may be right about the cold war part. Today from Fox News.
I want to know if this will count as the same Cold War? Will it be Cold War II, with Cold War I ending at the fall of the Berlin Wall?

Describing a baseball's speed in kilometers per hour feels like mixing systems of measurement.
I would "mod you up" if I could.
Did you ever hook-up with that receptionist?
Who hit me with this airplane? Which one of you guys hit me with this GD airplane?! WHO HIT ME WITH THIS F-ING PAPER AIRPLANE!
I will destroy another major city every hour, that is, unless you pay me - One hundred billion monkeys!
*The President and his advisors LAUGH.*
Dr. Evil that's more than the entire federal monkey budget for 1969.
I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if a billion monkeys suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
I think what always bothered me most in Double Dash was that you couldn't hold an item behind yourself for protection.

The inability to win, beat the game, or just finish is the reason Thermonuclear War never interested me. How about a nice game of Chess?
No kidding, everyone knows the sql queries go in POST data.
"Not that it's going to help any in this case"
Wouldn't that make this a bad example?

Does this mean that all of Bioware's titles are going to play like XBOX games ported to the PC, like all of the C&C games now? I'm sure it does.

TLDR
.... don't think this mean the Democrats are the anti-RIAA party. The interests of Big Business is important to both parties.
