Read this story and then hop over to half.com and buy the 1982 orginal VHS of Blade Runner for 3.95 +2.95 shipping&handling did I? Yes. Yes, I did.
Nerd? I've had the "directors cut" for years and always thought there was something wrong with it that I couldn't put my finger on. I'm a nerdy, nerd.
After the gubment sells the Internets to AT&T and Verizon you comments won't be allowed... After all it is *their* Intetnet, go get you own if you want to bad mouth our Interwebs masters!
Someone is actually funding a game designed for the PC that maybe, just maybe, 100k people will pay $15 a month to play.
They'll spend what? $4-12 million just getting the game released and make how many boxes for store shelves.
If the idea is to spend millions designing a game for 100k people I can do that and pocket a few million in the process. With the state of graphics today it's time for a subscription PC based sex RPG... Virtual dating for Vanguard players.
"and have never had, any privacy whatsoever. It's an illusion. Deal with it."
Actually we all know this. You haven't made any grand statement of fact. What you are missing is that before now, there was a court order and over site... Now it's just one man deciding everything with no over site.
Every ORPG suffers from this basic problem, the only limiting factor for progress up the scale of "I won!" is time in game.
The makers of this style of game fear the twitch style or the kill points style or the land grab style of advancement. Nope, time in = advancement, is all they know.

Bush isn't using any laws at all. Not FISA not the 4th amendment. He's just making up law as he goes.

Sorry but the idea that we all have to give up our freedom to be safe and free is just beyond stupid.
Sony sounds ripe for the the picking!
1. That I just not use my computer. (If I can't open files that appear to be from business clients, um what files can I open?)
2. That Word 97 is better than Word 200whatever?
Anyone remember Fatal Error or Mudge or that even Jobs and Wozniak built and sold blue boxes?

We are such pesimists because being negative is right more than half the time.
This is a bad thing for users of games.
