Dont you know everyone here hates MS for no real reason. Microsoft could donate all the money they have to starving kids and people on slashdot would still complain that they are evil or some shit about blue screens.
Does anyone else hope this is a super powerful machine. I remember when N64 came out, the graphics on that thing were great. Beat graphics on an playstation no contest.
Like what tho. How do you gather more evidence of such a thing without going into someone house, taking their computer and looking in it. Only ways i can imagine is by hacking his pc. But that would be even worse.
Pre order bonuses really piss me off. Hell i buy games new and on top of that im restricted because i didnt buy it BEFORE it came out? Also ever notice that all these preorder bonuses are run through gamestop, the evil company they are trying to squash out.
Exactly. If they "sold the experience" aka a license to use content, then they should freely provide said content to paying customers. This is something in my opinion Steam does well. They dont sell me a game they sell me the license to play the game. If i lose my actual physical copy of my game its not a big deal as they will provide me with a digital copy. Publishers these days tho seem to want to have it both ways. Cant make backups of your games and now cant sell it used for what its worth because "paying for license to play" but they will certainly not replace your copy if it gets scratched or stolen. You paid for a game not the license.
Not only that but they also recently declassified a RAM/SCRAMJET plane about a year ago that does mach 7or so. Oddly enough it was tested in the 1990s right when the "Aurora" was being sighted everywhere. We have VERY fast things. We just dont know we have them.
What about supersonic bombers such as the Tu-160. They didnt build the largest supersonic aircraft for defense. Large numbers of attack submarines. Fighter aircraft. Do you believe the soviets didnt have invasion plans for mainland America? Just looking at soviet aircraft technology from right after WWII you can see that they were willing, and able, to launch a first strike invasion type attack. That would probably led to global nuclear war tho so they as america decided to just stalemate it out.
I disagree that they were crude in development, they just follow a different mantra with their military technology. Combat tends to favor tough as shit equipement that can be fixed by slamming it with a rock over some highly intricate technological wonder. Take for instance the M16 and its variants (excluding hk416). Nice fancy gun made with space age materials that in actual combat turned out to be pretty craptastic. The Kalashnikov design isnt king for no reason. Simple, will seldom jam on you and can take a hell of a beating. That can basically be applied to most soviet military technology.
You must have an amazing machine. Everyone i have played with has pointed out its a resource hog. And that inculdes people with multiple core processors. Im sure lack of full screen support and being coded entirely in java dont help. Maybe poor server design? I dont know but i dont see how minecraft should eat up ALL my ram and must be set through task manager to have highest priority.
Remember the days when they would distribute like 1/3 of a game for free so if you enjoyed it you could buy it? Was the business model of try this finished game and see how you like it too generous for the gamers? I cant believe people would pay for a beta of such a badly designed game. Its fun sure, i just cant see how people would pay for a resource hog BETA version of a game, that isnt even beta its more like alpha.
Too bad you will only have access to the whole title list if you PREODER FROM GAMESTOP NOW. If you dont you just get games that didnt sell on the virtua boy.
Not immersive? You must have never enjoyed a good novel.I would sit there and read for like 3-4 hours when i was 10-12. Not immersive my ass. Kids are naturally violent, at least males. Do you think children in the 1950s playing cowboys and indians with bb guns got that behavior from playing contra? I know i didnt, contra was just something i enjoyed when it was too hot, rainy, dark to go outside and cause real trouble and mayhem. Maybe violent people are attracted to violent videogames and other media, and not the other way around.
Why is that so? I only have few games on steam, original HL and cs, hl2, css, gmod. And i find steam pretty nice. They provide me with a copy of all my games that i can download anywhere whenever i want. In my case i can play them all offline no problem whenever i want as well. Its nice not having to worry about finding CD's whenever i want to play the game.
Yes but only violent videogames. Other forms of media that depict violence such as movies, magazines, books, comics, and songs no. Actual violence no. Videogames yes. THEY ARE THE WORK OF ALAN TURING'S HOMOSEXUAL DEVIL MACHINE.

Ah i wish i lived in a world where banning exports of weapons to a country meant that country had no weapons exported to it.

You can run N64 games on a gamecube?

I think it was more to do with child porn.
I also dont understand how Microsoft is impeding Sony from doing anything. I guess its still cool to blindly hate MS and all their activities.
Wtf is this crap. Am i on cracked.com now?

They also had space cannons. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salyut_3

So go do something about it instead of complaining about people that do something about what they find unjust.
Lol it sucks mining the same 5 blocks 30 times huh?

Will i have to send a small drilling robot to nuke the middle core if i need to reboot?
You can always buy physical media. Tbh this is why i prefer consoles. I put my disc in my console and that shit just works.

Or in the case of eurobeat cd's 40-80 dollars in the US. Which to me is alot of money for a cd.
