I haven't seen a good Bond game since Goldeneye64 and even that left me lacking after a while.
That's because Goldeneye was made by Rare, and EA got the license after that. Make no mistake, if the new Bond game is from EA, it will probably be lame.
2004: nintendo DS launched. Backwards compatible with gameboy advance.
For purposes of clarity: the DS will play GBA games, but not Gameboy games. Still, I agree with your sentiment that Nintendo has behaved well regarding backwards compatibility.
Would anyone really buy this arcade machine if they knew that there was no legal way for them to run over 99% of the games that they were promised, I don't think so, and if you really look at this without emotion, I'm sure you would agree.
Would anyone really download MAME if they knew that there was no legal way for them to run over 99% of the games that they were promised? I submit they would, as the multitude of thriving ROM sites attest to.
Also, obligatory IP angle: If not for the ridiculously extended duration of copyright, many of these games would be public domain. Free the damn mouse.
Presumably it would be selling a Nano-ITX based PC, running some non-Apple operating system. He did say "next week", you'll note, and I am anxiously awaiting the form factor's availability.
Postage stamp sized mobo + x86 architecture = small, feature-laden, and inexpensive. Sadly, only available next week... but early adopting fools have long been the financiers of my "digital life".
The problem with trying to appease the creationist's argument of "Where is the missing link?" (If that can be called an argument), is that there are already dozens of intermediary fossils that precede Homo Sapiens. Each time one is found, the dogmatics respond, "Well, yes, but where is the fossil between that one and us?" In short, they will never be satisfied with any missing link that is found, because they will cling to anything that allows them to believe the universe was created by a divinity.
A better question is, if all life was created within a very short time, why does the fossil record invariably proceed from simple to complex? I don't recall any mammal fossils being found in the strata that contain the earliest invertebrates. Creationists would have you believe this is the work of a "Prankster God", who created a world full of evidence in favor of evolution in order to test man's faith in Him.
As the late comedian Bill Hicks said in his act, "I'm at the pearly gates. Saint Peter's like, 'Do you believe in dinosaurs?', and I say, 'Well, yeah, there's all this evidence; fossils, you know...' 'Straight to hell with you, sinner!'
Exactly how should people "do it *themselves*", when they don't have the power to do it?
Power comes from the people, regardless of whether they are active or passive. A revolution does not require running water or electricity, merely a sufficient number of people with the power to say no.
As evidence, look to Gandhi, who managed to evict the native empire with little more than the clothes on his back.
he specifically said, "The argument that the Andean Condor, being a type of vulture, isn't a bird of prey is moot: "Andean Condors may kill some living prey."
Also where I first encountered it, on the fights with Bowser when he throws chains of hammers at you. I initially thought he acquired the power of controlling time in the later levels, and feared him.

and this guy.
I actually heard some music from Chrono Cross the other day on the weather channel, quite surprising.

Man, I'm glad I didn't get anything frivolous like that enscribed on my body... /me flouts his Quake tattoo.
It was so easy I finished the game without dying.
For all of you who miss the challenge in recent Zeldas, I direct your attention to Alundra and Alundra 2.
If you hate the place so much, move. What's keeping you here?
The US now sees fit to enforce its laws even outside of its borders.

I am not certain, but my best guess is that it's a buzzword. If I had to impose meaning on it, I'd do so like this:
Time-continuous media: television shows, movies, radio shows.
Non-time-continuous media: Paintings, photographs, books(?)
The product reviews at that link are some of the best I've ever seen on Amazon...
I know it seems extreme, but we must be protected from the terrible secret of space.
Because we is people. ;)

Exeem Lite coming soon
How about the widespread publication of the Necronomicon, as its author intended, on human flesh?

/me prints out a roll of "Gravity is only a theory, not a fact" stickers...
And please let it work on humans. Also, it'd be nice if it didn't have unforeseen longterm effects.

Although he didn't provide a source.
MS Office: Now with the animated paper clip the masses have been clamoring for.
The problem is that if they rename the wma files to mp3, and WMP is set to open mp3's, they get the same effect, without the tell-tale extension.
Quake 1 and 2 also shared only the name.
In fact, it's impossible to do the unlimited lives trick in 1-2 using Raccoon Mario without inducing slowdown.
