Check my list I added some of the originals (that made Diablo and others real) but on my list I missed Fallout (another of the greatest but a little recent)
They were not so recent (yes not so recent)
Some examples?
A. DIABLO? NO! the original Diablo was...... NETHACK!
The Great interface game? SYSTEM SHOCK (the orignal)
Instead of Doom? Wolfenstein (admit it. it was the orginal "Violent" game)
Instead of Quake? Doom (admit it. it was the orginal "good" shooter.)
How about the original game? ADVENTURE. (Don't get lost in the past? Yeah right but that was the first true game)
Then they put in TOMB RAIDER? It might have been revolutionary at the time but the award is revoked for stupidity (5 games now 1 engine.. no upgrades? even microsoft isn't that dumb)
Kings Quest 4? no Quest for Glory 1 (or any) or any of the original Sierras (Btw Thank god it is not KQ5)
Now for MYST? I have to leave it. (love it or hate it you have to respect it.
Now just so you know these are all off the top of my head
P.s. If you have not played System Shock GET IT NOW! it was the most awsome game that came out before Doom. if you can get the CD version you will be amazed. (possibly the greatest game ever made in the history of games. and the sequal sucked.)
possible end to "NO SOURCE" Microsoft? Let's hope.. I for one would not mind....
But think of the scariness of Seeing Microsoft source would be? not only is it large and complex but there would be 100 bugs per page. You would have to get 100 men just to rework it and it would take them about a month at the least.:)
When did the Reply page go from being "intresting side stories" to "bitchy complaints?" (Answer... One week after they started:) )
But let the people talk about the new cool toys and some fun stuff. 99 percent of the stuff here is real let a few intresting toys be discussed to. I personally don't click on EVERY story so why should you? If you don't like something don't read it.
(This goes out to anyone who ever gets offended or pissed off about something on anything including the radio, the TV, the movies, the Paper, or a Web Site)
I'd Advise against it. who would want to see a ugly goth chick? (though I know a lot of hot ones so don't flame me) And besides it is obvious they must like exhibitionism so then when they know that you see them, they would be doing a lot worst stuff, (trust me there is a lot of weird stuff they will do.. I shiver typing it.)
Well lets see? I think someone mentioned porn cams. (Admit it. you all thought it.)
But how about
Cam in the ladies shower.
Cam to watch the kid.
Cam in the Ladies Bathroom.
Cam for secret agent.
Cam in the Victoria Secret store changing room.
Cam for the tech freak who has to have everything.
Other then that I don't know what to use it for.
That is not the point. knowledge of one computer system usually allows a speedier delevery to another system. he says he has tried the Docs and they are too complicated or too easy. If there was a good doc from Windows to Linux we could have a few more converts now instead of next year (when windows crashes 10% more but no one really notices) personally I know enough people who would go to Linux if they had a good tutorial..
That is why Windows will remain the best because it is a standardize version and it is well made (in theory) and easy to use for your average idiot. (please don't flame ME... I hate it too but it is a lot easier (which sucks because it holds your hand for everything) ). Also buying a book costs money I rather get something for free.
I earlier posted a response that I am a Windows person who is going through the conversion to linux (and when I say conversion I am going to try to learn as much as I can) I also asked if anyone wanted me to post something of this please e-mail me at Kinglink@collegeclub.com
Also does anyone know a free site where I can post this?
Just wanted to make my topic more specific. Thank you.
We need a tutorial for the smart user but not for the old school Unix users. I am currently keeping a journal of my own personal trek so that other Windows users can switch over. I am using KDE and have only been working on it for 4 days (more like 12 hours or 24 hours) but It is working. if anyone wants to see this work posted tell me.

1. This computer probably had moderate security. When I was in High School about 4 years ago. I was "helping the network guy" (aka learning the system behind his back) and when ever a new system came on it was hacked. usually just a simple looking hack but still. But never tell a teacher that you hacked something.. if you have to just get a file off the server to prove it (and if you get caught claim Josh gave it to you...)
2. Another lessons. Teachers are a bunch of assholes. You only get 3 good teachers in your lifetime. don't waste them
3. Teachers lie (well duh anyone in school should know that one)
4. Teachers are cheap (duh anyone in school should know that one)
5. Hacking is fun. Hacking teachers is fun. but getting screwed over by a teacher for hacking his computer when he asks you. is not fun. (duh again.)
Something like this happened to me once. but that was on some powermacs which sucked and a long and boring story. besides which the bottem line is that authority and network admins are assholes 99% of the time in school Especially if they like Macs..
I admit you NEVER know but why don't they attack MP3s then? (you know RIAA would love to and are already trying to get all MP3 formats deleted but a codec is just a compression scheme the files is what causes the problem (just keep saying that no matter what anyone says)
A. Hacked codecs of MPEG4 generally fail with 1 exception. DiVx:) (Or what ever you call it)
The Microsoft MPEG4 is the best for pure compression (works the best)
DiVx codec works the best for multiplatform use (since Microsoft is not exactly being forth coming with their codec which is why there are HACKED versions of it)
Why not take the time and get away from MPEG4 Why do we stay with it. 3ivx is just another hack. no matter how good it is just a hacked version or an alternate version of a hacked version. We don't need more codecs.
We should start to make ONE codec for video that works on All platforms (read: don't let Microsoft work on it) one codec for all audio (Mp3s are almost the best) one codec for pictures (that is almost complete) and one "codec" for internet. I admit this does not lead to diversity and if a new codec comes along we can change the system but with out standarization people have to get huge system files with millions of codec.
And I realize that "codec" is not the right word for some things but the idea is there.
When will the madness end?
I don't but what I am saying is there are smart people who could make sense out of it, and any data in Los Alamos isn't exactly the type of data we would want in the open. you know? But I am not fretting but people seem to calm about this. P.s. FIRE=Smoke Screen Clinton= Crack Seller China= non ADDICT but user Favors= CRACK Money= MONEY any questions?
I mean when I see this, it says one of two things, 1. someone out there has this information and is probably going to sell it to someone else who might use it to cause a LOT of deaths, I mean A HELL OF A LOT. what else is the bomb used for? "destroying trash" (aka the bad scenario) 2. Someone out there has this information and is going to give/sell it to a foreign probably hostile goverment (or China in the case it is a Clinton Controvesy) and they will use it to cause a lot of AMERICAN deathes. (aka the bad scenario) I mean this is REALLY bad. anyone else pissed about our goverment's lack of secruity in the last 7 years? (aka the CLINTON ERA) and no I don't like AKA I just use it because that is the hidden message or the joke. Thank you.

I understand why this is but I find it funny. it records on audio tapes but no sound :) just makes me :) you know?
Yeah but it is more fun to do it yourself. don't you think? hybrids are always cooler too.

OH SHIT THERE REALLY IS A LICENSING AGREEMENT? I always thought EULA is a Acroynm for LATIN that translates to "CLICK YES YOU MORON" Like SPQR
