Because a game that does something I would never let a game do dang well better be free. Not to mention the computer I use to play it (or whatever system it's on). Because I sure as heck am not wasting good money on this. Yeah, it's a good idea, but I don't need another avenue for anyone to throw their products in my face. I get enough of that already.
My whole workplace uses IE. But the techs are smart guys. I used to be a tech before this job, it just pays better and I don't have listen to idiot users all day long, win-win for me. Anyway, I'm the only person in the office who runs Mozilla. Every month a tech runs through here and logs in admin for me so I can get any updates I need. Too bad I've been asked not to install iTunes.
Actually that kinda happened to a friend of mine. They broke in, took all his games, movies, systems, computers and even blank media. Left the warrent on the kitchen table. Turns out his last roommate was running a kiddie porn site or something to that nature. You think you know someone...
Got a check from Best Buy many years ago. There was a class action suit and they ended up having to pay temp employees OT. The check was for 7 buck and some change. And I got it two years after I worked there. Meh...
The defendent wasn't even at the trial. The jury listened to whatever the plaintiff said and made a decision. The defendent didn't even get a chance to put her 2 cents in. She had to leave home because of Hurrican Katrina, but that didn't stop the plaintiff. So who's to say if the plaintiff was actaully slandered or not.
How long until Animal Crossing: Revenge of the Hampster comes out?
Personally, I'm waiting for Animal Crossing: Loan Sharks Come Collecting. It's a little more violent and adult themed in that you have to fish under the cover of night and pretend to not be home to avoid beatings and broken limbs. It's one of Nintendo's 'cross-over' titles that mixes the Suzy homemaker aspect of Animal Crossing, the stealth of Thief, and the brutatlity of Manhunt (in that networked players who you owe money come looking for it).
Actually no profits. Neither of them actaully paid for their systems. The only cases where one should have been paid for, my brother bought a PS2 at Wal-Mart, switch the S/N sticker and returned it as a dead unit. The XBOX was swapped out by a Gamestop employee who was quiting his job or getting fired for like behavior. Oh well. Not that I care if Sony or MS gets screwed out of some money. May not be moral, but they're doing it to themselves and the retailers don't have to pay for it.
I read TFA. Doesn't say much about what happens besides that it stops bleeding.
Does this mean it will make a way for blood to flow in an artery? Or does it just get in the way? Does it make room for healing cells? TFA says it doesn't interfere, but does it get out of the way when the body starts to heal? Could something be added to 'nourish' the or promote more healing cells?
Does it promote healing or just act like a mega-bandage?
Don't get me wrong, I think it'd be great to throw this stuff in a first aid kit so you could just glop it on if you get a gash while out hiking or hunting. They could be the first real 'med-packs' like in them 'video games'.
My brother has been through 3 PS2's and an XBox. A friend of mine; 2 PS2's and is awaiting his third 360. I've only purchased Nintendo stuff. Haven't had any problems so far and everything I own save the original NES was purchased at launch. (My SNES has even turned greenish on some pieces of plastic, but plays fine). I don't have any qualms about getting a release model of the Wii.
Funny. But as long as it's Street Fighter II (none of this alpha VII turbo hyper-tastic mode crap) then I should be just fine. My mastery of Chun-Li and Vega should prove usefull (provided that at some time during the end-times someone has unlocked Vega). As long as you're not intent on throwing weak fireball after weak fireball B/S I'll be happy... pretty pathetic if that saves the world.
Good call, but it's definately the first step. Though I think the video on the treadmill site was completely lacking. Something like four seconds of some chick speed-walking and playing a game. That and they should have thrown someone who looked like they could use excercise on the thing rather than that girl.
I agree that Sony and MS are giving us what they think we want. But they're missing the fact that many of us do not or can not. The post you responded to had a very good point. If it's not playable on standard def, it's not worth playing. But to continue the point, I would add that if your game is not playable, or has reduced functionality at low resolutions, then label it clearly, so people don't buy it thinking it'll be just fine.
or photography at least. Not sure what you would call a bad screenshot. But on the second page they complain for the second time about how Capcom's Dead Rising had illegible print on standard (even 480p) TVs. Yet, they do not show what the text looks like, just a shot of Frank smooshing some zombies with a park bench. I'm not in need an example, I've played it on a 36" 480p TV (and yes it's still very difficult to decypher most of the words). The game has text on the bottom of the screen well over half the time you're playing, it wouldn't be hard to get a screen capture of the script.
So when did people start equating 'pretty' with 'totally hot'? Pretty would be someone who is pleasing to behold. Which is different for everyone. I didn't say locate the ones make you want to get it on right there.
I didn't say to ask out the 'prettiest' girls either. I said just 'pretty'. And that's it. See the girl looking at the new graphics card? She's kinda cute? Go talk to her. Ask her if she's had lunch yet. Don't discount the power of yourself. Don't ask out someone because you think she's 'okay'. If you don't find a certain girl (or even ethic group) attractive then don't feel bad about not stepping out. Don't be cocky, but give yourself credit for what you want.
The clothes thing was part of hygene. Take care of yourself. Be prepared to look nice if called upon. Dress to the occation. If you plan on meeting some one at a LAN party, then by all means wear your logo stuff.
Don't change your personality, just leave some words that can make other uncomfortable or confused out of your vocab. Talking in leet speak isn't really part of your personality that they're going to be concerned about.
By all means be yourself. Never change who you are because that woudl be living a lie. You'll lose every time.
Funny that, you and I are in a good accordance. Though you did put words in my mouth.
Comb your hair, permanently delete all your porn and all those DVDs of backups, comb your hair and shave the beard. Buy some new, clean, clothes without words or logos. Ask out pretty girls. Avoid the use of the words woot, pwnd, and 'leet' in any casual conversation. Do not admit to your unhealthy infatuation of a sci-fi or fantasy series of books or movies.

If he's playing with a Powerbook or any Dell, he probably won't have the opputunity to have any grandkids.
Being that it takes 2-30 minutes per turn do you really want to wait that long when you're yelling at the Pally for a heal?

Say... Keanu Reeves. Since he's only got one facial expression, all you need is a camera and... well, that's it.
I figured you just meant they were Core systems. haha!
Sad thing is that this would work 50% of the time. Especially in any residential area or an appartment complex without lead paint under the wallpaper.
do tell, oh all powerfull AC
Good Lord... Didn't you see Broken Arrow? John Travolta has them. But don't worry, teen hearthrob (of the 80's) Christian Slater will get them back.

Ahh... the elusive 'white spot'. Quite the opposite of the black hole. It has no gravity whatsoever.
You mean the Cheep-Cheeps (Orig SMB)? Oh, wait, bigger fish. Perhaps Big Bertha from SMB3?
