  1. Regarding Nested Tables on Gamecenter Gets Fragged · · Score: 1

    I don't think anyone here would be bitching about nested tables if Netscape wasn't such a POS. It's a shame that IE is the only browser that can properly load a web page these days.

  2. Re:Firingsquad.com on nVidia GeForce 2 Ultra Unveiled · · Score: 1
    I find that to be an incredibly odd comment. Our GF2U guide is probably the most concise, to-the-point one out there, and our words per page counts are probably at the top compared to others. Ditto for number of banners.

    Oh well I guess there's no convincing some people with facts.

  3. now now let's quote it correctly on John Carmack Interview · · Score: 1

    I believe I wrote "almost needs no introduction." When I told two of my friends that I was posting a JC interview and they said "who?" I knew I'd better introduce him.

  4. Another FYI on John Carmack Interview · · Score: 2

    She was sitting right there when he said that, so obviously there's an understanding there.

  5. single and multiplayer on John Carmack Interview · · Score: 1
    I think what you say is true from a single player perspective. But for a game with great multiplayer aspects, players create their own stories and their own memories that persist far beyond the "story" of any single player FPS game.

    Example: I loved System Shock 2, but I don't sit here and think about its plot weeks and months after playing it. I *DO* however love to reminisce and talk trash about the memorable close calls we have in our office Q3 CTF battles. Like the time someone strung together 3 people on one rail. Or the time I got shotgunned with the flag as I was diving into the front hole of my base on Q3CTF2 with 15 seconds left. I would ahve tied that game for sure!

    Those kinds of memories are the ones that persist more for me, not the created ones that *everyone* shares in from a single player game. CB

  6. context on John Carmack Interview · · Score: 2

    I think you're getting the wrong idea from that comment - Anna is very supportive of John. I think she realizes that his passion for his work is what makes him who he is. I'm happy that he found a companion who didn't see the need to "change him" as many women might want to do.
