  1. Re:I miss EAX on Oculus Rift Raises Another $16 Million · · Score: 1

    And the funny thing is, EAX technology is a perfect fit for the Rift.

  2. Re:7 Titles. on AMD Radeon HD 7990 Released: Dual GPUs and 6G of Memory for $1000 · · Score: 2

    It actually is a standalone title.

  3. Re:Wow, I'm amazed... not. on German Cable ISP First To Deliver 4700Mbps Internet Connection · · Score: 1

    I'd love to run as fast as the Flash for 17 seconds a day. Doesn't sound like a lot, but if you can move that fast, it's plenty of time.

  4. Re:Available on Applie mobile products? on Google Rolling Out Live Streaming For YouTube · · Score: 1

    There's a justin.tv app that works just fine. Which other ones have they rejected?

  5. Re:Just a bit more than an iPhone on SatPhones — Why Can't They Make It Work? · · Score: 1

    How much does call time run you?

  6. Re:Can't make a call from inside on SatPhones — Why Can't They Make It Work? · · Score: 1

    I imagine sending and receiving constant voice data is on a whole other level from simply receiving pings of GPS data.

  7. Re:Can't make a call from inside on SatPhones — Why Can't They Make It Work? · · Score: 1

    For the people these things are targeted at, I doubt cost is much of an issue.

  8. Re:Nerd Fantasy Extrodinaire: Ingame Scripting Age on StarCraft AI Competition Results · · Score: 1

    Did you ever play Carnage Heart? It sounds a lot like what you're thinking of, though this was from the mid- to late-90s. My friends and I played this all through college. We eventually came up with some pretty ridiculous strategies.

  9. Re:Agreed on Game Reviewers Face Odd Bribery From Publishers · · Score: 1

    Don't forget the Giant Bombcast. One of the best out there.

  10. Re:In other news, HP sex Scandal == Push other new on Claimed Proof That P != NP · · Score: 1

    [inception]BWOOOOM[/inception]

  11. Re:You already have better on Intel Says Farewell To PCI Bus · · Score: 1

    Holy Christ, I thought the guy was just exaggerating with the external power supply thing! That is simply brilliant.

  12. Re:wow... on Valve Confirms Mac Versions of Steam, Valve Games · · Score: 1

    That would be an EA issue, nothing to do with Steam.

  13. Re:A Quote from the "General Gameplay" FAQ on Star Trek Online Open Beta Starts Today · · Score: 1

    Holy shit, I thought you were joking. That is brilliant.

  14. Re:Online vs Offline XBL? on Xbox Live Class Action Being Investigated · · Score: 1

    You can get a disc with updates directly from Microsoft for just the cost of shipping. Call their Xbox customer service line and see for yourself.

  15. Re:Yes, but where is the "RISK OF DEATH" label? on Honda's Answer To the Segway · · Score: 4, Informative

    Hate to break it to you, but Toyota does robotics, as well. Most heavy industries do at least a bit of this stuff, especially in Japan.

  16. Re:GeForce FX 5800? on A History of 3D Cards From Voodoo To GeForce · · Score: 1

    Try clicking the picture.

  17. Re:I can haz April Fool Achievement? on Slashdot Launches User Achievements · · Score: 1

    It couldn't be too tough to code something. Although I'm not going to do it...

  18. Re:Sounds like the expired Wacom patents on TrueMotion Game Controller a Step Up From Wii Remote · · Score: 1

    Ever tried messing with the Steel Battalion controller for Mechwarrior? It works surprisingly well.

  19. Re:I don't think it would happen... on Will Consoles Merge Back Into PCs? · · Score: 1

    They used to make Vaio desktops, but they don't seem to do anything beyond laptops anymore.

  20. Re:Typical release date pattern on Fallout 3 Gets Leaked, Goes Gold · · Score: 1

    This is nothing. Talk to the UK and Australian Rock Band fans if you really want to see "fuck you".

  21. Re:bullcrap on New Details For StarCraft 2's Zerg · · Score: 2, Informative

    Sounds like you might want to check out Sins of a Solar Empire.

  22. Re:dumb people lose money, not freedom on Jail 'Greedy' Scam Victims, Says Nigerian Diplomat · · Score: 1

    Patrick Combs. Pretty funny story. Even got a Broadway play out of it.

  23. Re:What's weird... on The Evolution of Sega · · Score: 1

    And of course the coolest (IMO) handheld ever put out was by Sega. I mean, how many other manufacturers have put out a handheld that lets you use your existing game library?

    At least one other one.

  24. Re:Nintendo to Sega: on The Evolution of Sega · · Score: 1

    I've read far greater histories of Sega told by far greater men within the company then this guy.

    Such as? I'm genuinely curious.

  25. Re:more or less true, but . . . on Google Says Complete Privacy Does Not Exist · · Score: 1

    Many people survive today without bank accounts. That's why check cashing places exist.
