World of warcraft collectors box is really sharp looking. No copyright notices, system requirements all that junk. All that is on a soft glue paper attatched to the back. Its flawless except for....
THE %#*%#@ ESRB NOTICE RIGHT IN FRONT!
Now I can put the box up for display and show to everyone that this game is rated teen.
How was the noise? what I renember from these classic projectors the teacher had to talk really loud to be heard over the high speed turbine turbine cooling fans.
Does anybody think there is a water cooling solution? If you can pipe that heat into the ceeling and cool it from there or if it sits on the ground just make the whole base a 5' cooling tower.
I gotta tout, I was amazed by the graphics created by a team of 5. Then I heard its supposed to scale down really well and I was just playing it on my tablet with a 1ghz transmeta and a low end gf2. The game handles GREAT! I didn't have to change any graphics options. Just, a great game. I've been looking for this since tradewars.
If you really want an off the shelf game then buy the $49 6 month subscription. Its the same cost as a shelf box and I hardly buy more then 3 games a year leaving 6 months to be plenty of time to exaust the game. If you want to keep playing after 6 months then its obvious the game has more replay value then many other games. If it takes 6 months for you to finish a game then its not very cost effective for you to buy a new game.
I dont mind month monthly subscriptions when you dont have to buy a box as well. And it sounds like the expensions will not have to be purchased on the side.
Good things ahead... we had the buy the box + expansions + montly. Now we have buy the montly as well as (Guild wars) buy the box, buy expansions with no montly.
Ok, here's your new media, yes yes it still doesn't have a protective cover. But look! This magic coating will keep it from ever being damaged! Yes yes it will last forever and you will never lose your data!
Thank GOD we dont get to deal with those nasty dust jackets from the days of old. I feel SO much smarter now that I can see every rainbow of data as I try to wrap my fingers along the outer edge of the disk when I put it in. DVD rentals have never been more pleasant.
The FUCK is going on here?
This 2 party political system is a joke and we get no vote on how we want our new media.
There is just no way to actually enoforce people activating. I can't think of a single game that you can't get a crack for playing without using the CD for singleplayer mode.
There is just no point, if someone knows enough to burn a copy of a CD for a friend then he knows enough to go to gamecopyworld and add the patch to the disk.
So instead of calling a truce they just want to dig their heels in deeper. Frankly i'm offended they are wasting their efforts on activation that will not make my game any cheaper because it does nothing for piracy.
morons, any ATHF refference diffuses any tension. Just so you know, if you dont get modded back up its because they are afraid of the meta moderators who can't see the sig.
PVR's are in heavy need of a nice rotary controller. A single large knob that you can modify the volume and time shifting controls with. With a knob you can get a nice feel for how far ahead back or ahead you want to go without flooding the IR.
I had a coworker who had a tapping heart. When he "told" me about it he was standing behind me while I was showing him something on the computer. Then I started hearing this tapping like a water faucet dripping and was looking behind him to see who was wearing the grandfather clock on their wrist untill he proudly stated that the giant tapping noise was his chest.
Hey bob, renember when I was asking for a low powered handheld computer that I could only use if I plugged in a monitor keyboard and mouse? And you said "thats the stupidest fucking I idea I ever had, if i'm going to take someones copmuter over its much easier to knoppix and thumbdrive it." Well you were right bob. And um, i'm sorry.

Alot of devices have a dead pixel policy of like 4 or more before they will offer to repair.

I dont know what crack would to to me, probably post more slashdot.

Said the deer: "Lets go, this guy bots"

This "breaking news" is also posted on the side of the website. Where the ad's usually are. In big bold letters... ...
its been there at least 3 days.
I think about telling my friends not to shop at best buy. Then I think about what to say when they ask where they should shop...

you failed it.
Dont know how the game is running but the website went south just a few hours after announcing the stress test.

Nobody is going to be interested in taking bug reports this weekend at blizzard because they are all playing guildwars.
Maybe the "gay tax" will save social security?
Yea we wouldn't want SuicideGirls and Nintendo getting mixed up by the search engines.
My problem is its pointless.

But I would much rather see someone block sales of a product that required online activation vs violence content.
