As far as Machinima goes, treat games as you would any tool in any other field. If it accomplishes the end you have in mind, then you should use that tool. Never treat the games as ends in and of themselves.
This means that if Battlechess 3000 does what you want, then use it! It's just that FPS engines are usually designed with flexibility in mind and so are often the easiest games to manipulate into what one wants.
Ah, but for that to happen, Microsoft needs to become insignificant for a little while, and then make a huge come back using something like Linux or the like. That's why it works for IBM and Novell.
It's been barely one day after the projections, not the actual tallies. Give it a few days after it has become concrete. Let some of us mourn before we get angry.
As much as she has been disagreeable in the past, I think we should be forgiving and help her ever more so to understand our train of thought and where we, like Lessig, are coming from.
If that's the way he feels, then Microsoft should start their own cheap hardware division, and then they can really find out if that's true. They shouldn't be asking the rest of the industry to be footing the bill for their problems.
Which is why it's a good thing to research. Perhaps games in general just don't appeal to most women, or perhaps we need to explore different types of games that cater more specifically to women.
No, it means that they, like all other human-created organizations, is flawed, and lives in a shade of gray. People who only see black and white will detest anything that isn't pure, and so will dismiss a company that mostly does good, with an occasional misstep in the wrong direction.
Google employees have these little side projects that they call 20% Projects. If there is going to be a browser, I'm betting it's going to one of these 20% Project based off of Mozilla/Gecko.
Or it could be the result of a new group that was formed at Google to address the issue of their OSS involvement. All I know about this is that they want to become more involved in various OSS projects to address the question of people asking "You use so much OSS, why don't you contribute much back?" Believe me, they're very grateful to the OSS community, and they do feel a large obligation to give back. It's just that many of the engineers/developers haven't had the time.
do you believe that a rider and bike (200lb tops) out of control at 20mph is somehow more worrying then a 6000lb car and driver out of control at 60mph?
Well, see, there's this little thing where I don't want to hit them.

This can't be happening yet, unless Duke Nuke'm Forever is going to be out soon!

Therefore this should have been modded Funny, not Insightful.
Asinine Moderators.
And this is why Knoppix should be illegal, because it's a gateway distributions to more dangerous distributions...
Because everyone one is doing it...
First time is free! Hehe...

No riots? No cities on fire?

READ THE F*CKING ARTICLE!!!!!!!!!!

Did you forget that Nintendo owned Rare for a while before Microsoft? Rare developed the game, but they didn't publish it.

You know you want to be like Corey Hart
The DoJ doesn't need to explicitly declare it ware for us to know that they are doing so.
Interesting, his name is Seemann.
Very little in the gaming world requires you to actually *watch* two screens.
Perhaps, or perhaps you just have no imagination. People once thought that a mouse would be useless as well.

I'm sure someone will come out with a duct tape mod for the movie.

I'll bet the GNOME Foundation is a little upset. Now they'll have fewer names they can use.

Whatever. Your 3d stuff can't hold a glass of water to my four spatial dimensions.
What? You have a problem with Footbal Fields Squared?
It's the reason why the US Army avoids conscripts like the plague.
Sure, but MSVC.NET does, so what's your point? That and the fact that your example conforms to ANSI C, just not to ISO C++.
I would also like to note that Borland's compliance up to version 5 of their IDE was worse than Microsoft's.
