1, Agreed. You can walk into the water in GTA3 and VC and drown, because you can't swim the 1 foot it would take to get your feet on the ground again. Also, the boats were deathtraps. Not only when the boat was about to explode, but also when you were trying to get to shore. You'd have to jump perfectly off the boat not to miss the pier.
I agree about the GameCube's controller. A big primary button, a small secondary button, and "X", "Y" and "Z" in the same direction as in the 3D co-ordinate system.
I only remember that the mission briefings said something to the effect of "You might want to use a single agent armed with a sniper rifle", then I would use 4 agents armed to the teeth with miniguns and gauss guns, start the mission by minimizing all the drugs and waiting for the bars to drop to minimum. Then I would go around the city until I saw a hostile, maximize the drugs and go on a rampage.
Or maybe thay made easily broken crap in the good old days as well, but nobody uses them anymore since they all broke down a long time ago.
In twenty years someone will still be using that washing machine or toaster they bought today, and saying how stuff was made to last in the beginning of the century. Unlike these newfangled quantum toasters and food replicators and teleporters.
The latest viruses on Windows also didn't have their executable falg set, in a way, since they were contained in a zip file.
The users had to open the zip file, then run the program from within the zip file.
Now you could say that they shouldn't be able to run programs from within a zip file by double-clicking on them. But if users were used to having to first extract the file, then setting the executable flag, then running the program, they would do it. There is no such thing as a foolproof operating system.
More like internet darwinism. If you have ended up on the goatse page more than once by blindly clicking on links in slashdot and have not learned to check the links before clicking on them, shame on you.
And Slashdot's link-parsing algorithm isn't flawless either.
It doesn't help that by default Slashdot adds the friendly [example.com] after every link (that could be a redirect) and they add a title-attribute to the link so that you can't even check the url by hovering on it.(at least not with most browsers)
I haven't seen it as much as a 5-year old might, but I've seen the movie close to a dozen times. I have made many of my friends watch it, and have seen it because of that. It's kind of the same with Iron Giant and Cats don't dance.

No, the lack of backup tapes of worms would suck the most.
I would guess that they will use USB to connect PSP to the PS2, and I assume the PS3 will have USB ports as well. (IDNRTFA)
Popfile strips out any invalid tags and increments the pseudoword html:invalidtag for every such tag.

The PS2-version has aim-lock for small arms. You press down one of the shoulder buttons and it automatically aims the nearest hostile.
On the other hand, Duke Nukem 3D had an earthquake, to which Duke said "I ain't afraid of no quake."

It was fun, though...
Damnit, when I take a photo, I want to be able to see the pores on their skin!
Because it wouldn't be a proper intarweb page without one.
Y?
Because I gotta!
OOOOOH, Shiny!
Don't forget Maestro.
USA! I'm putting my money on a company called Mainsoft.
There are clients that support multiple trackers.
I use Azureus.
Mod parent up, +1 hilarious!

Not just the font size, it zooms the whole page, graphics etc.

Opera 7.5 will have the option of showing Google text-ads in a narrow toolbar.

"Scary beyond all reason"
I can if you write it phonetically.
