  1. Re:Old hat? on Star Trek - Elite Force 2 Demo Out Now · · Score: 1


    Actually, the Half-Life engine is based on the Quake I engine.

  2. Uh oh... on Video Game Pioneer Speaks Out · · Score: 1

    Uh, what?

  4. Re:Remember Dreamcast on Xbox Live Volume 2 Released · · Score: 1

    It seems like the quality of gamer on the console side just isn't up to the same standards as PC online gamers.

    This may be true, but it's also understandable, as many console gamers have little to no online experience (as far as gaming goes). One hopes that this will eventually improve, but until then, you can always just play with friends...

  5. Re:Caving on Technology for Mapping the Underground? · · Score: 1

    lots of string and a compass will give you distances and directions, used correctly.

    Something tells me that being inside a big metal pipe might screw with the compass a wee bit.

  6. Re:It's a crying shame. on Fallout: Brotherhood Of Steel Impressions · · Score: 1

    Fallout Tactics is an action game, not an RPG.

    Or turn-based strategy game, depending on the option you chose.

  7. Re:Ooo... A whole two (canadian) dollars on First Test of New Canadian Privacy Act · · Score: 2, Insightful

    So you wouldn't mind paying me two dollars a month to not spam your number all over the Internet?

    ...Solid Snake was unavailable for comment.

  9. Re:nasty on 12" PowerBook Wobble? · · Score: 4, Funny


    Yeah, having your hard disk platters go floppy at 7200 RPM would kinda suck.

  10. Don't click on the Torrentse link (warez and porn) on Mozilla and BitTorrent? · · Score: 5, Informative


    It redirects to Tubgirl now.

  11. Wow. on Designing and Making Custom Wedding Bands? · · Score: 1

    Now I've seen everything: a dupe Ask Slashdot (well, sort of).

  12. One problem if this catches on... on Apple In-Store Software Burning · · Score: 1


    ...no excess copies to liquidate through the bargain bin.

  13. Re:I thought the title was... on Feral Robot Dogs · · Score: 1

    No, feral dogs eat electric sheep.

    And then promptly die from electrocution.

  14. Note: on Experimental Drug "Caffeinol" Tested · · Score: 2, Funny

    Use of this treatment is not authorized for patients under the age of 19 (21 in some states).

  15. Re:Actually... on Stupid Censorship, Stupid Security · · Score: 1

    The one thing you damn Americans always seem to forget is that rebellion and liberty do not equate directly.

  16. Re:What i want to know.... on Comparing Sci-fi Starship Sizes · · Score: 1

    The Independence War series has full Newtonian physics, except for the lack of gravity/orbital mechanics. Makes for interesting dogfights...

  17. Ah, progress... on Anachronox Movie Finished · · Score: 1

    From Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within to the Quake II engine... Won't those crazy animators ever decide enough is enough?

    But seriously, I loved Anachronox, and I'd download the movies if I were actually finished the game.

    Holy shit, you're a pretentious ass! Way to go!

  21. Re:Deathmatch, the profession on Deathmatch for Dollars? · · Score: 1

    Should it be a viable profession?

  22. Re:Some of the best games... on Commander Keen: 13 Years Later · · Score: 1


    Independence War 2 is pretty good, too (haven't played the first one).

  23. Re:Two words: on Community-Driven Documentation for Free Software? · · Score: 2, Funny


    Incidently, the irony of my post hit me about five seconds after I made it...

    Message boards.

    Can't beat those for user-based support.

  25. The arrogance... on The Ethics of Life Extension · · Score: 1

    ...of this sort of thing always makes me ill.

    The desire to extend your life to this sort of extreme is the ultimate vanity.

    YOU ARE INSIGNIFICANT.

    Take your allocated time on this Earth, use it well, do good, and then fade away.

    Incidentally, if "using it well" to you means to sit in front of a computer on your morbidly obese ass wanking to porn, you had might as well just end it now, and be done with it.
