  1. Re:but its just as bad on PVE servers too.. on World of Warcraft PvP Ranking System Detailed · · Score: 1

    Get your thousands of other players to FIGHT BACK. You're not alone on WoW you know. Just because you chose to solo through the game and pretend you're playing single player doesn't mean you can't get help if you want to look for it.

    Show some effort people.

  2. In 6-12 Months this will be moot. on PSP Battery Journal · · Score: 1

    In 3 months or less, third party manufacturers will have released replacement batteries for the PSP with more battery life (and likely at a cheaper price than the Sony brand). Within a year Sony may release their own branded suped up battery pack.

    The capabilities of the device far outweigh the bitching and moaning, and the main problem of the bitching and moaning is temporary.

    In one to two years the model number of the PSP will increase as they run better production models down the line. So whether you're an early investor or bide your time, if you WANT a PSP... you'll get what you want. The battery issue will be solved.

    Now let's start comparing games between the DS and PSP! Go, Go, Wipeout Pure!

  3. Re:Mac Gaming on WineX and the Future of Linux Gaming · · Score: 1

    Gentoo Games has already done a self-booting game using America's Army.

  4. Re:There is no Linux "game market" on WineX and the Future of Linux Gaming · · Score: 1

    Thanks... this has actually enlightened me to why we should stop buying Windows games. Before I couldn't really picture the economic reasoning, but if we're already buying stuff for WineX, we're not like Mac users who only buy Mac-compatible gaming software and thus we lessen the impact of porting directly to Linux.

  5. Re:Those cflags are nowhere near optimized on Measuring The Benefits Of The Gentoo Approach · · Score: 1

    You are absolutely right. Whoever did the gentoo install isn't properly informed on how to optimize it. I hope next time they borrow a gentoo dev and have them use the same hardware and THEN run the test.

  6. Re:No. Gentoo is not a performance leader. on Measuring The Benefits Of The Gentoo Approach · · Score: 1

    Say, Here's MY CFLAGS list:

    CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -m3dnow -msse -mfpmath=sse -mmmx -O3 -pipe -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4 -maccumulate-outgoing-args -ffast-math -fprefetch-loop-arrays"

    The fact that they only used a mere one optimization doesn't show you just how fast Gentoo can go. They need a hardcore gentoo optimizer in there for the gentoo box, someone that knows what they're doing. Gentoo is completely customizable but the customization is dependent on the person doing the installing. Hence, I say the person doing the gentoo install is NOT informed on optimizing gentoo and thus renders this test invalid.
