The best adventure I've seen so far remade for NWN is Lone Wolf.. Think you can top that? (of course, I'd be interested to playtest!!)
Isn't this somehow related to SCUMM? (I really haven't been following that story/thingie.. some sort of engine for old Sierra games? if it is, it can probably extract stuff from stuff..)
(sorry, I need another coffee)
I was about to start a project for Lankhmar, but that HQ project seems a lot more interesting and feasible.
You still need to dump it on a cartridge so you can play on your GBA, right? (something along the lines of this) Unless I missed something? and if I did I'm going to run out and buy a GBA this week...

assuming of course you unplugged your dial-up modem.
I know people who get charged a 2-3$ in premium service call (976-type number in Sao Tome) each month.
It's not that bad, but Bell will no refund it whatsoever.
There was a story a few weeks ago of a 3000$ bill, again for Sao Tome.. That's a surprising bill. (the lady was on DSL, had her dial up modem plugged in and was infected with a dialer...)
Of course, everyone I've been talking to about it only said "haha, dumbass!".. still, it could happen to anyone.. (using win, I guess.. any word on dialers exploit on other platforms?)
let's see.. I'm no jurist, but here's what I can decipher...
"No person shall circumvent a technological measure that effectively controls access to a work protected under this title." 1201, a,1,A.
Anything in the machine could be copywrited. It could be a digital render of a song by the beatles or it could be an encrypted.txt file with a poem by Bill Gates.
So under the DMCA, just "disabling" that protection would be the illegal act.
Let's say no games will work unless they are somehow transformed by that piece of code, which is a transform of a copyrighted document.. Just like someone suggested a few months ago to use a (c) work for e-mail authentication, and any spammer using that work would be infringing on my (c), so they would be doing something illegal.
You're probably right, btw. and I'm just rambling. (some will say trolling..) He probably spoke to his lawyers before saying that in an e-mail interview, right?
Project founder Mike Curry said in an e-mail interview (...) "We will not actually break any laws until we crack the code," he said.
(rofl)
I hope these were not his exact words, because it's an "intention" of breaking the law, plain and simple.
The problem with this distributed project is that both Microsoft and Mod Chips manufacturers/resellers are going to be against them. And that was not the case for SETI. (oh.. wait.. yes it was... (insert link to favorite alien race that does not want to be discovered))
AA_v_Farechase/ American Airlines obtains an injunction against software vendor Farechase for scraping AA.com website for "web fares" information, relying on trespass to chattels and breach of a browsewrap license.
I thought I spotted some bias in that description, but haven't been able to put my finger on it, english not being my native language.
In a previous story about the POS world, related to the high tech pricing game, there is a passage about airfare pricing, where each airline publishes about 17 times a week the price of seats for all their flights..
So the big story here seems to be the tech behind fetching these prices from the website and not the prices themselves...unless the prices publishes on those websites do NOT concord with the ones they advertise to ATPCO?
All of the major airlines ( except Southwest ) participate in a joint fare-publishing enterprise called ATPCO. ATPCO collects fares and rules ( such as advance-purchase requirements, refundability, and so on ) from each airline. ATPCO then publishes those fares back out to the airlines and to the reservation services.

Yahoo! Online Games Contain Spyware, the story on Civ3 downloadable from yahoo.
So they just moved to another platform, right?
Yes.. I can see the recipe.
Ingredients:
one graphic card
two memory stick
solder and paste to taste
1. little solder there
2. chip here and here.
3. a dash of flux there.
4. in the oven at 350 for 30 minutes.
DING!
OH NOT! That was 350F, not Celcius!!!
Anyone want a byte of my overmelted Board?
I call it "GeForce FX", the FX stands for "Flambee Xtra".
3. Full Motion Video
Agreed, and it should have been shot in the head at birth. Anyone feel any real loss for Space Ace, Psycho Killer or MadDog McCree?
Space ace was ok.
