Last week's episode was really good, yeah. Last season was the worst; if I wanted to watch nothing but an idiot hurt himself and run around screaming I'd go outside and watch for awhile.:)
Holy hell, I've done that too. But only once. Next time, why don't I talk about the time I tried to see if a laptop power supply was working by licking it?
It's nice to see what these guys have done with this; it's an incredibly complex project and the software uses every trick in the book to get decent performance on the little Amiga.
The reason why the load times are so insane in Halo is because the game is copying half of whatever map it wants to load onto the hard drive. I think one of the FAQs ranting about the co-op "infinite ammo" exploit went into further detail.
I don't think a lot of people posting here are all that familiar with Eugene Jarvis other than the Cruisin' series, and that's a shame. I'd trust the guy behind Robotron with my life!
If I were a betting man, I'd put money on the fact that 90% of idiots will go "Hmm, there's this Eye-Tunes thing in my Pepsi... oh well" and toss it. I'd bet that probably very few people will cash in their codes, and even fewer will give them away to this site or even know it exists.
Personally, I'm in Canada, so I don't really care (iTMS isn't over here because of the Canadian music industry being a pain).
I find it extremely hard to find a game nowadays I can be interested in for more than two or three hours before wandering off to look at something shiny or a red car or... what was I talking about?
I heard that they flash the rovers when they're on final approach so I would assume Opportunity is running with the latest version of its software, probably patched up from Spirit.
For what it's worth I think most of the games (namely the ones at the top) look good. The rest are of varying quality, but there are some damned nice ones here.
It's nice to see there's people working on the GP32 other than the script-kiddies who just download emulators and ROMs to it and bitch on message boards.
Yes, but this is the same Nintendo which has been fighting the production of flash carts for the GBA. Sure, people pirate games on them but people are also developing some neat stuff using them.
I don't think any of the big console companies are really all that interested in the hobbyist market.
Microsoft can argue about music player choice when they've leaned on RCA to release software so you can talk to their players on machines not running WMP or MusicMatch.

Huh? Last I checked, the Web was different from the Internet! You'd think people would figure this one out by now. Of course, if you're merely talking about HTTP traffic then I guess some P2P apps would be involved (gnutella uses HTTP to negotiate and download).
While I disagree with the author's quest to find symbolism in this game, it is an excellent game and the interpretation of it certainly makes me think twice.
The videogame industry needs more analysis, not just "what to buy".
There used to be a one-handed PlayStation controller by ASCII; perhaps if they're bugged enough they'll release a USB model.
As for PC gaming, I would imagine that the best routine would be to obtain a japanese "keiboard" or cellphone-clone keyboard and use that. Most of them have integrated mice too.

Twilight Zone slapped together four extended episodes for its movie; I'd like to see a similar thing done here.
I'll say. Obviously they didn't pay writers for the last couple of seasons, because it was pretty much a series of shows about Homer hurting himself.
Moronic.

Even if they don't use it, it sure looks good on a spec sheet, right? :)

They're one of the finer cranky-gamer sites out there as of late.
Robotron forever! Oh, and Yak's new game looks amazing.

As soon as they find an actor to play RMS.

I have got to get into a marketing firm somewhere so I can put those directions on a game box.
Shake til you puke!

Congrats, you blew open a valuable antique for the ability to run Wintendo on it.

Wow. Mod this up. It's amazing (and telling) that a thread about Lego would be one of the most intelligent discussions so far on /.

Some Apple operating-system engineers left to form Palm, I believe. I dunno how they got away with it.
My LC I is running quite fine under v7.0. I just created a folder and it reported the date as Thu, Jan1, 2004.
