  1. Re:That's odd - I think games are boring on Average Gamer Is 35, Fat and Bummed · · Score: 1

    Games are pretty much the easiest way to be "successful". In FPS games you're Rambo,

    I'm a walking target.

    in RPGs you're a hero,

    I'm a punching bag.

    in RTS/TBS a mastermind,

    I'm easier to rout than the French.

    take your pick.

    Do I have to? And this from a guy whose entire online persona is of a massive, nearly-obsessed gamer. (Yes, I'm exaggerating - I just always feel like I'm inferior to everyone else. Is this related to the depression the article says I probably have?)

  2. Re:Woohoo on Average Gamer Is 35, Fat and Bummed · · Score: 1

    Join the club - 25. Personally, I find this average to be slightly suspect - what are they counting as a gamer?

    Nothing like yet another off-topic WAH WAH I'M BEIN' OPPRESSED whine.

  4. Re:Don't forget Bowlderizing on The Problems With Porting Games · · Score: 1

    Plus the SNES version was a superior port - the folks making the Genesis version totally blew it on the AI.

  5. Re:Console Gamers Shouldn't Complain on Are Game Consoles Ruining DLC? · · Score: 1

    So while we may be able to get DLC, your game at least works when you put the disk in the drive.

    That's no more of a given for consoles than it is for PCs. Lots of games are released buggy and broken on any platform - hell, Action 52, buggy, broken piece of crap it is, sold for $200 and people bought it. (Anyone got a more recent example?)

  6. Re:Psychology on Are Game Consoles Ruining DLC? · · Score: 1

    Well, that's riotously offensive.

  7. Re:Sorry, lady. Incitement to violence is a crime on Woman With Police-Monitoring Blog Arrested · · Score: 1

    Tell me, in all that meaningless ad-hom screeding, do you have an actual point somewhere?

  8. Re:Not so happy when the shoe is on the other foot on Woman With Police-Monitoring Blog Arrested · · Score: 1

    So do you have some kind of personal thing against straw men, or is it just a general hatred without reason?

  9. Re:GNZAA on A Mathematical Model For a Spreading Zombie Infestation · · Score: 1

    The zombies are already here - only in this case, they spam racist troll bullshit instead of eating brains. I'd rather have the brain-eating, thank you.

  10. Re:Sick of zombies on A Mathematical Model For a Spreading Zombie Infestation · · Score: 1

    That's because the democrats are in power.

    Yeah uh.. this has what to do with anything?

    It's time to break out the vampires movies and stories.

    No, as much as I hate to say it, we're getting vampires as the Next Big Thing because of Twilight.

  11. Re:Sick of zombies on A Mathematical Model For a Spreading Zombie Infestation · · Score: 2

    If I had mod points, I'd be giving them. Amen to everything you said. Zombies are abso-fucking-lutely played the hell OUT. Sadly, it seems we're going to be back on overusing vampires very soon. This stuff's cyclical, you know.

  12. /.: Ultra-Predictable on Twitter Used To Control Botnet Machines · · Score: 0, Troll

    Slashdot hates Twitter and ignores the story to trash it, surprise me. Something's popular and not engineered specifically to cater to us; therefore we must hate it. Don't you guys have anything better to do than whine about things you hate - like, say, FIXING things you hate? Shit or get off the pot.

  13. Re:A Few of my Favorite Things on Iowa Aims to Establish International Video Game Hall of Fame · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Good white joke? You, you failchan reject trash.

    And if they hadn't been walking around at night in such slutty clothes...

  15. Re:users should not complain on Digsby IM Client Quietly Installs Badware · · Score: 1

    I was going to say "rapist" but digsby doesn't install via drive-by download.

    Apparently, it installed via auto-update with no warning for those who already had it. Is that close enough for you?

  16. Re:You get what you pay for... and then some more. on Digsby IM Client Quietly Installs Badware · · Score: 1

    You typed all that crap, but all I could see was "I use public toilets and piss on the seat / I walk around in the summertime saying 'HOW ABOUT THIS HEAT?!'" Think about how you come off with that rant.

  17. Re:Nuisance of free software on Digsby IM Client Quietly Installs Badware · · Score: 1

    Again, Digsby didn't do anything wrong. They just changed the default "install options" and to use computer's idle resources, like everyone else.

    "Well, if everyone else was jumping off a bridge..." </mom>

  18. Re:Surprised? on $18M Contract For Transparency Website Released — But Blacked Out · · Score: 4, Informative

    Ahh, the hypocrisy of our democracy.

    Actually it's a republic rather tha a democracy

    MYTH. Representative democracy != Republic.
