Well in GTA:4, although there is lots of eye candy, where are all the cool side missions? No cash for wheelies?stoppies?
Heck, where is the TANK, i spent hours upon hours just seeing how long i could go before i blew up or the tank flipped, cant do that now:( Can't even take the Dodo for a joy-ride. I dont think i will be purchasing any further games in the series, if you think that you can sell me a game for $60 then turn around and sell me all the good content for more $$$.
How was taking the dodo for a joy ride fun? While their automobile controls are really good. The controls they put in for any type of airplanes were always worthless.
For those across the pond who haven't heard of the Daily Mail, they're pretty much our equivalent of Fox News. They'll publish any story if they think it'll sell papers, but they usually play on Joe Public's apparent dislike of immigrants, gays, people whose skin is too dark, etc.
They are not the equivalent. They are Fox News. Rupert owns the Daily Mail.
One of my favorite things about Baldur's Gate and KOTOR was the fact that it was single player. I've played my fair share of multiplayer games and MMOs, but sometimes you just want to play a game where the whole universe revolves around you. Where your actions alone determines the fate of the world. Those are the kind of games that Bioware makes and I kind of think they were forced to make this MMO because EA wants a piece of Blizzard's pie. Nevertheless, I look forward to seeing what Bioware manages to comes up with.
I believe you are misinformed about bioware. They weren't forced to do anything. Bioware has had the kotor mmo in development for a couple of years at least. It was one of the reason's that ea bought them out.
Safari's search feature is awesome looking for this kind of stuff. There are even google textual ads at the bottom of the article for irrigation systems. Lucky coincidence for them.
You have it backwards, the marketers got shoveled vista. How are you supposed to market an os that recommends a dual core and 2gb of mem to check email?
Which brings up an interesting question. If intelligence is some kind of naturally occurring, self perpetuating thing when certain conditions are met. Does it not appear humans are furthering it along with silicon? Sounds to me like we are creating an environment for the next stage of life.
It's not about long term data; not mostly anyway. It's about accessing it faster. Ssd speeds are around parity to hds now.
They can basically keep up to 7200s, but use less power while emitting less heat and noise with lower latency. Once they hit higher distribution rates prices will drop and better tech will come out.
Ars has much better info and commentary on the auction. Basically tho, Att can try to outbid google, however, there are requirements that the auction winner has to abide or they lose the spectrum.
What would you suggest? Impeachment? neg.. what would be your desired outcome?... impeach the pres and vice pres? talk about a long shot. Votes of no confidence? don't mean anything here. Election in a bout a year? you'll just have to wait
I am using vonage right now , in the process of switching to broadvoice tho (hate indian tech support among other things....), and I have no problems using a second line as a fax only line.
The problem is our American "dream" i.e. a middle class wage forces us to work ungodly hours, which leads to not having the liberty (yea a joke right?) to keep tabs on our government properly. So, most of us judiciously take advantage of our fully realized republic by not doing anything but pressing buttons in a ballot box. And leave the proper scalping to the press.... unfortunately the press is now owned by multi-national corps with a vested interest in both current parties in power.
Our only recourse of getting rid of a standing president is impeachment>indictment. However the dems are pussies to the full extent. To me, just from videos I've seen Cheney and Bush have directly lied on numerous occasions, and yet aren't taken to task for it.
Does the gfx res go any higher than 720p on the desktop? Since the appletv has more powerful hardware than necessary. I was curious if they already had 1080p output, and was software limited.
I mean really thats the smart thing to do imo, make the early adopters pay for future revisions... and software update later; if its a viable product. Except it doesn't do surround.. meh.
I think you should change your post or maybe you read quickly or something.. or maybe I am bad at math, could you explain how 6+2 = more than 10? A millennia is 1k years not 1 million.
Seems pertinent.... osx is running on appletv now.. linux should be doable once someone gets some drivers up... nice form factor, low power cpu, fairly expensive, and a sff.. sounds really tasty to me.. any other takers?

A dong?
Strangely enough, my failed dns searches don't seem to resolve to verizon's search page now. And I haven't tried a clean dns server.

I for one welcome our new Cylon Overlords!

And let's see how long they last versus night predators.

Tell that to NBC Universal!

Ibm just won a contract to administer the digital tuner rebates for ~350 million. The 700z auction was supposed to pay for the program.

I believe license refunds are available, for new purchases. Dunno the hassle it requires tho.
Woops, modded you wrong, teehee!
So, build your game in flash if your gonna skirt the AO line?
