  1. Re:Competitors with "Sims" like product? on EA Reports Slight Q4 Dip in Revenue · · Score: 1

    I have this game. While it was built on the Simcopter engine, the stability was absolute shit. I couldn't play that game for more than 30 minutes without having it hang or crash. Plus, the highways weren't raised from the ground unlike their counterparts in Simcity 2000. Waste of money, but I hope Maxis tries again with better results.

    Why don't they just give them all t-shirts they have to wear instead?

  15. Re:Made in... on China Walks Out of Wireless LAN Security Talks · · Score: 1

    Not only that, but the Chinese government has shown much resistance against products or standards that are patented by foreign companies in the past. (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2003/11/20/china_unv eils_dvd_killer_video/

    Given China's stubborn stance towards royalty payments to foreign companies and lack of control over the design standards, I'm not surprised that they walked out of the meeting.
