  1. Re:Um, I'm a geek on Beer Stein Goes Hi Tech · · Score: 1

    I know this is a fairly obvious statement, but drinking is a key to social interaction... especially on the college campus.
    Yes, I did spend 12 hours finishing my long inductive proofs of Fib sequences and dynamic algorythms, but these are not the roots for a fruitful conversation with non-geek persons.
    I'll be the first to admit I'm not a full-fledged geek, but that's not because I drink, it's because I go out to drink and enjoy things like going to clubs and random house parties. Moreover, for business, you learn golf, for life, you learn beer.
    I don't trust anything that dosen't drink beer.
    I don't trust anything that bleeds every month and dosen't die from it.

  2. Beer glasses? on Beer Stein Goes Hi Tech · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Why drink beer from a glass when my PBR comes pre-packaged in an easily disposable container?
    Quite frankly this project is a waste of time and resources that could be more useful in the attaining of more beer and the consuming of materials thereof.
    Why waste money on these glasses when the R&D money would be better suited to get more beer, cheaper for you and me... who's with me?

  3. Re:deus ex, Thief, HalfLife? SystemShock2 ? RTCW? on Game Developers On Game Criticism: Spector & Church · · Score: 1, Informative

    An often overlooked FPS was actually syndicated with Origin before System Shock called Ultima Underworld(I and II). These games were the first I found to properly incorperate plot, resource management, skill, and puzzle solving. Moreover the technology was far beyond it's time, incorperating an actual Z-coord about the same time that ID's Wolf3D was gaining popularity. It just goes to show that an FPS in my mind can properly balance many good aspects of gaming and dosen't have to be restricted to shooters or stealth games.

  4. Older Product Placement on Product Placement in Video Games · · Score: 0

    Ahh, but does anyone remember Spot for the sega genesis? That's an example of an entire game based on product placement that failed due to the product's (7up) lack of caffene.
