Many have said it before, but I'll say it again: this is a bad idea.
Firstly, please define porn in a way that leaves no grey areas.
Secondly, please define a porn site in asimilar way. If I have one xxx image on my site do I have to move it to.xxx? What if I didn't put it there but a user uploaded it? if I'm allowed one image, what about two? Where is the limit? If one image is allowed, what is the point? Can I take down someone else's site just by uploading an image to it and reporting them?
1) The holographic screens which you can drag something on to from a computer and walk away with it. This was shortly before the iPad was released and I remember thinking that that would be massively useful if Apple introduced that functionality.
2) The scene where one of the aircraft crashes into another and for a split second you see it from inside the cockpit with the propellers still spinning. For me this was pretty much the only bit that was worth being in 3D because it was an experience that you would never have in real life - you'd close your eyes and cover your face to avoid the broken glass.
3) The head army dude (can't remember his name) standing on the flight deck with a cup of coffee. I don't why but that tickled me.
Or it's hard to judge how good a film will turn out to be when all you have to go on is a script meaning that actors will sign up to films that they will later regret.
I never really played Goldeneye but everyone I know loved playing it with four people in one room with four controllers. As this is PC conversion I'm assuming this won't be possible without having four PCs in the same room.
Are you saying that it was made by the Regents of the University of California, not BSD? If so, it should be pointed out that BSD = Berkeley Software Distribution, as in Berkeley University, as in Berkeley California. As in the GP was correct.
Or are you referring to where it says "Copyright (c)", implying that therefore MS shouldn't be using it? If so I'll point out that BSD is a copyright license. Just because they are giving it away for free doesn't meant they don't own the rights for it. The BSD license is a way of enforcing those rights.

If you're in advertising or marketing... kill yourself.
No, no, no it's just a little thought. I'm just trying to plant seeds. Maybe one day, they'll take root - I don't know. You try, you do what you can. Kill yourself.
Seriously though, if you are, do.
Aaah, no really, there's no rationalisation for what you do and you are Satan's little helpers. Okay - kill yourself - seriously. You are the ruiner of all things good, seriously. No this is not a joke, you're going, "there's going to be a joke coming," there's no fucking joke coming. You are Satan's spawn filling the world with bile and garbage. You are fucked and you are fucking us. Kill yourself. It's the only way to save your fucking soul, kill yourself.
Planting seeds. I know all the marketing people are going, "he's doing a joke..." there's no joke here whatsoever. Suck a tail-pipe, fucking hang yourself, borrow a gun from a Yank friend - I don't care how you do it. Rid the world of your evil fucking makinations. Machi... Whatever, you know what I mean.
I know what all the marketing people are thinking right now too, "Oh, you know what Bill's doing, he's going for that anti-marketing dollar. That's a good market, he's very smart."
Oh man, I am not doing that. You fucking evil scum-bags!
"Ooh, you know what Bill's doing now, he's going for the righteous indignation dollar. That's a big dollar. A lot of people are feeling that indignation. We've done research - huge market. He's doing a good thing."
Godammit, I'm not doing that, you scum-bags! Quit putting a goddamn dollar sign on every fucking thing on this planet!
"Ooh, the anger dollar. Huge. Huge in times of recession. Giant market, Bill's very bright to do that."
God, I'm just caught in a fucking web.
"Ooh the trapped dollar, big dollar, huge dollar. Good market - look at our research. We see that many people feel trapped. If we play to that and then separate them into the trapped dollar..."
How do you live like that? And I bet you sleep like fucking babies at night, don't you?
"What didya do today honey?"
"Oh, we made ah, we made ah arsenic a childhood food now, goodnight." [snores] "Yeah we just said you know is your baby really too loud? You know?" [snores] "Yeah, you know the mums will love it." [snores]
Sleep like fucking children, don't ya, this is your world isn't it?
True. I guess the same could be said for the Half Life series, as much as I love it.
I think the multi-player plays a part in it though. Back in the days when I was playing CoD 1 & 2 all my gamer friends were still on dial-up. On-line play, whilst technically possible and already fairly easy to set up, just wasn't worth bothering with. These days everyone has broadband if they have a connection at all (I literally don't know anyone on dial-up) and everyone I know that has CoD:MW2 or Black Ops bought it specifically for the multi-player - the single-player was an added bonus.
It seems to me (and maybe this is just me interpretation) that Activision are concentrating on the Multi-player game because a) lots of people like it, b) They can charge for DLC and c) Making the DLC and the game itself is easier for multi-player than single-player - there's no plot to worry about, no (or at least less) AI, you can make DLC that consists of purely maps, no need to make new models, characters, cut-scenes or even new artwork.
Hell, even the iPhone isn't "closed", so long as you don't mind jailbreaking it (which, at this point, is super easy.)
So...it's not closed as long as you open it?

If I am wrong about these beliefs, then I will one day die and go into the soil and nothing more will happen.
Unless the Hindus or Buddhists are right, in which case you will be reborn.
Or if the Catholics are right, you'll be going to hell.
Or if the Jews or Muslims are right, in which case...I'm not even sure what happens but I can't imagine it will be pleasant.
But then again none of the above take too kindly to Atheists so you're probably safest betting on one of them...
Have you just met the pope?
No, just restin'
He only found out that his neck was actually broken years later.
There were four parts of that movie that I liked.
1) The holographic screens which you can drag something on to from a computer and walk away with it. This was shortly before the iPad was released and I remember thinking that that would be massively useful if Apple introduced that functionality.
2) The scene where one of the aircraft crashes into another and for a split second you see it from inside the cockpit with the propellers still spinning. For me this was pretty much the only bit that was worth being in 3D because it was an experience that you would never have in real life - you'd close your eyes and cover your face to avoid the broken glass.
3) The head army dude (can't remember his name) standing on the flight deck with a cup of coffee. I don't why but that tickled me.
4) The end.
Crack is a subset of cocaine.

People who don't use Facebook.
The new "people who don't watch TV".
Well, that's true but my point was that this mod appears to be missing the main selling point of the game.
I never really played Goldeneye but everyone I know loved playing it with four people in one room with four controllers. As this is PC conversion I'm assuming this won't be possible without having four PCs in the same room.
Are companies still agressively beating down any fan mod that dares even closely resemble their IP these days or do they turn a blind eye to it now?
Some do, some don't. Valve are allowing the development of a complete remake of their original flagship game, Half Life 1. Maybe because, like a lot of people, they don't think it will ever be completed.
No, man raping daughters = bad ...I think...
Daughters raping man = the will of god.
The only thing that annoyed me was the refresh rate
How fast do you read?!
And here was me thinking that the US had chosen bush over gore.
Well, yes. You seem snarky, so I'll elaborate.

Not by default. But it can be arranged.
