  1. Re:Theft on Morpheus Infiltrates Other P2P Networks · · Score: 1

    that's slsknet.org, you heathen! the above url is for a spyware clone of soulseek! but do try soulseek people, it hearkens back to the olden days of napster.

  2. Re:Um okay on Sony PSP - Pricing Hints Emerge? · · Score: 1

    I might pay $400 just for a portable Symphony of the Night experience, especially considering all the half-assed sequels on GBA...

  3. Re:Training Videos for Restaurants on Best Albums of 2003, Scientifically · · Score: 1

    My friend worked for Wendy's for a while and managed to steal their training video, which is rife with music videos for such Billboard hits as "Got To Serve The Drinks" and "Hot Drinks". Unintentionally hilarious, I say!

  4. Re:Japanese Music ? on Japan's Empire of Cool · · Score: 1

    Dragon Ash is an excellent band that was recommended to me by a japanese quake player on irc. Their best work includes "Lily Of Da Valley" and "Viva La Revolution (especially the latter).

  5. Re:good point on Satellite Radio Systems Compared · · Score: 1

    supercedes? not only is it spelled wrong, I do not think it means what you think it means...

  6. Re:Wow on The Return of S3 · · Score: 1

    Preach on, brother!

  7. Just what the gaming world is clamoring for? on First Nintendo IQue Reviews · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Check this out!

  8. Re:Lack of Progress = Bullshit on Mario Kart Double Dash - GameCube Savior Or Rehash? · · Score: 1

    Add to the above...

    Faster cpu= Better enemy AI (at least in theory...)

  9. Re:I can map that Internet in ... on Map the Internet... In One Day? · · Score: 1
  10. If this were a newsgroup... on There Inc - Propagating the Bad of Society? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Godwin's law would be invoked already:


    Have you ever wondered what sort of society Hitler would have envisioned if he had grown up in modern times and watched waaay too much MTV? Well I used to, and then I beta tested a game called There...

  11. Re:Slightly off topic... on Nokia's N-Gage - Savaged By Online Opinion · · Score: 1

    Notice how on the fifth page, the trend-chasing, emo-glasses wearing wannabe's start to crop up?

  12. Re:Yeah on Gaming Communities Cause Of TV Ratings Decline? · · Score: 1

    Paul Reuben is consistently amazing, regardless of his role. Re: "fap fap fap"... he was in an adult theater. It's not like they were showing children's movies.

  13. Seems to be a recurring trend... on Former Blizzard Staffers Announce New Studio · · Score: 3, Informative

    I can think of at least two other instances of the most talented section of a game development company taking wing over petty differences:
    1)When the developers of Contra left Konami to form Treasure.
    2)When the developers of Goldeneye and Perfect Dark left Rare to join Eidos.
    In each of these instances, the output of the parent company suffered greatly, while the prodigal developers released games that built on the strengths of their previous works, while seeming less constrained (or focused, depending on your perspective.) For Konami vs Treasure, compare Contra 3 to Gunstar Heroes. For Rare vs Eidos, compare Goldeneye or Perfect Dark to Time Splitters 1 or 2.
    I wish the upstarts the best of luck, and hope they can further refine their work.

  14. Re:second post?screw it ill actually read the arti on History Of Mega Man Explored · · Score: 1

    According to the first NES megaman game, Rock is also the first of a new generation of robots, who could think, feel, etc.

    And regarding Keiji's comments during the interview, surely Capcom would never ret-con the MegaMan franchise? That would interfere with the tight continuity established by the NES games. ;)

  15. Re:Not going to win any awards there on Praying Doesn't Help · · Score: 1
    i happen to be an evolutionary biologist. do i believe man was derived from the monkey? not completely.

    As an evolutionary biologist, you should not only know but also make the distinction that man is of course not derived from apes, but is beyond doubt that man and apes have a common, apelike ancestor. Troll.
  16. Re:ok.... on Praying Doesn't Help · · Score: 1

    As the person asserting that god exists, the burden of proof falls on you.

  17. Re:good games vs. nostalgia on History Of Mega Man Explored · · Score: 1

    Time to bust out FCEultra and show those young whippersnappers what's what!

  18. Re:second post?screw it ill actually read the arti on History Of Mega Man Explored · · Score: 1

    It is my understanding that Mega Man and Mega Man X are in fact the same person; he was awakened from a time capsule at the start of Mega Man X for SNES.

  19. Hmm... on Benchmarking With Halo For PC · · Score: 1

    This sounds suspiciously like a timedemo.

  20. Re:The iPod tastes like fluffy caramel. on iPods are for Audiophiles · · Score: 1

    You mean to say that you can't see the emperor's new clothes? Then, certainly, thou art a fool!

  21. Re:IBM model M keyboard on What's the Oldest Hardware You are Still Using? · · Score: 1

    Wow, I just hammered my shift key after reading what you said, turns out that pressing shift five times rapidly in win2k is the shortcut for StickyKeys... live and learn.

  22. Re:Get it right on Matrix Revolutions To Be Released On Imax · · Score: 1

    Hear, hear!

  23. Wow, useful. on Free Unreal Engine Release Planned · · Score: 1

    This is clearly a shoddy attempt to compete with id's opensource tactics. I doubt it will be met with much fanfare.

  24. Re:Interactive Music on Game Music Benefits From Interactivity, Budgets · · Score: 1

    Both Banjo-Kazooie and Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain utilize it extensively, although B-K does a better job, imho.

  25. Re:Artistic Quality on Game Music Benefits From Interactivity, Budgets · · Score: 1
