    That isn't what the x-box is going to look like. It still has yet to be designed, right now all they have are a bunch of specs on paper.

  2. My experience: bandwidth isn't being used on Bills to Restrict Campus Internet Access · · Score: 1
    Last year I went to a small-ish college where there were a number of restrictions on internet browsing, open ports etc. (Thank God for my friend at another college who set up a quake server for my clan) Not believing the "we need the bandwidth" excuse me and a friend did a little sniffing around on our network (we didn't do anything evil, I promise) and talking with the admins and we found out that somewhere around 2% of the bandwidth was being used at "peak" times, and most of that was just people e-mailing eachother. With the huge connections that universities have today and the dropping price of bandwidth for those that don't, I doubt it is much different other places.

    We were about to put together a summary for the network people but then I came up with a better solution - I transferred to another college. :-P

    As for the opposite sex visitation thing, I don't think I need to comment on that, there's no way in hell that will last long among the horny college student population.

  3. Re:Why couldn't it be Mech3? on Monolith Adds Games For Linux · · Score: 1
    My personal opinion:
    With the way games have evolved so rapidly, Shogo is a little behind the times now. Plus, it's really more of a first person shooter type game than a "Giant Robot Crushing Things" game. Part of the time you are a human and it is just like every other fps, and some of the time you are in a giant robot, but it's easy to forget since it still plays like an fps.
    It's still s decent game but if you're looking for an fps there's this little game called Quake 3 you might want to look into.... *droooool*
