I got a Neuros from the Neuros online store and I am very happy with my purchase. They are running a sale right now and you can get a Neuros in a bundle that includes 2 backpacks: 128 Flash and 20 Gb HD (read the website if you don't know about the Neuros backpack concept) and some accesories for less than 250$ shipped. I don't wanna marketing for them, I just think it's a great deal! Down side: it uses USB 1.1 so transfers can take a long time especially when you sync the 20 Gb HD for the first time (~10 hours). This device supports OGG, WAV, WMA and MP3. There're 2 sync managers and one of them is open-source and on SF.net. Digital Illusions, the manufacturer, is planning to release the device firmware source and the sync software source so that the community will be able to modify the way the player is programmed and add supports for more formats. There're also talks about getting a programming language (or scripting language) for the device so that people could write some basic applications and games for it. Anyway, check out the website! The forum is also very active.

You obviously aren't aware that new maps WILL be created by mappers and new mods will use the engine so it needs to be much more flexible than "we'll do smart level design to cover". Doing integer math is really really faster HOWEVER I'm not sure yo can do appropriate physics calculations with only integers. Especially when you need to push down floats to the gpu, it doesn't make much sense do calculate everything in integers then cast to floats for the rendering. Well, maybe it does, I don't know:)
"If you run at 72fps, and the engine runs at 60, then you'd get a duplicate frame every 5 real frames. Since the controls are tied to the physics engine, the controls would feel laggy 12 times a second, until the frame rate again caught up with the engine."
I think EVERY game engine should have an update "pass" (move the guys around based on speed, collisions, physics, ballistics, etc) and a render "pass". The update pass must be at a fixed frequency (to fix problems like explained in the article by Carmack) but I see no reason to have the rendering at a fixed frequency. You only need to interpolate between the last update bones position and the next key-framed bone position. This way you get a smoother movement of the mesh for faster machines.

Vivendi Universal Says Delay Not Confirmed
Tuesday, October 7, 2003
According to a news article posted today on a UK press release, there is a Half-Life 2 delay. We already know that Valve does is not mentioning a delay.
We received an email from Mike Thompson who says he works for Vivendi Universal and writes:

Here we go around and around... again...
From Half-Life Source Dot Com
What happens if a manufacturing company (or even a computer-related company) decides to split the "IT department" off the company to create another company that will offer IT services for that manufacturing company? If your IT department was 1/100th of your company, you just got Sun license for 1/100th of the price... maybe their "license" will cover this kind of practice but if not, it would be easy to do.
BTW, I don't mean to say this is or is going to be a bad game. I mean that 50k copies is quite a lot. Some mainstream game sold around this number of copies.
and they'll be releasing the code under an Open Source license after 50,000 copies of the full game have been sold.
...that means never, right?
