Everyone seems to complain about hollywood making sequels and remakes.But the game industary is actually worse then hollywood, and it works great for them.
Every single Playstation 2 game I own is a sequel or remake of something else. The last original game I bought was probably Tribes. Of course I have also bought Tribes 2 and Tribes Vengeance
I remember a while ago were I had this problem where I couldn't connect to ten percent of the internet. I first noticed I could not connect to Kuro5hin. But I also couldn't connect to some other websites. People on IRC told me they could connect to these sites fine.
I play Magic Online I could get into magic online but 30 percent of the time if I tried to get into a game it would say it could not find the server. Guess the normal server and the servers you play games are different, one or more of those servers was in my "blind spot". I ran a traceroute to kuro5hin and noticed my trace seemed to always get stuck so it never reach kuro5hin.

I remember my Dad doing something like that and how shock I was. It was not nearly as bad as this as he had done researched stuff on the internet for a few days.
But of course buying a computer requires months and months of research and planning. Then even more months of research because all the research you did before is out of date.
humans on the moon would be taller but weaker than earth humans and perhaps one day be diffrent enough that they would be considered a diffrent species.
You notice that in these disputes they always say they don't want to buy MS software because MS makes them buy the whole Office Package. Then Microsoft "clarifies" claiming that you could have always bought MS Office programs seperately?

Seriously, is Buzz Lightyear the only character to ever say the word "copy" in any disney animated film?

And Tribes, of course, was the first game where you "shoot" things from a first-person "point of view".
Well you know nothing is truly original. But I get your point
