Once, while working at SSA, I was running thinnet LAN drops in this one area. We discovered about 500 feet of coiled thinnet cabling tucked in the ceiling. Must have been put there by another contractor who wanted to charge them more.
Ahhhh the good old days...
oh, we removed it.
I tried the DEMO of this last night and was positively blown away.
If the rest of the game is this good I will be very happy.
Can anybody suggest a WW2 game that is as good or beter than this?
N-Gage! Warp Factor 10!
It can't be done Captain! It's too lame!
This one is going to make the Atari Lynx look like a success.
That a so totally flawed idea can become a reality is astounding.
This article at the register has an interesting field trip with the N-Gage. Hands-on: Nokia's N-Gage
IMntbHO....
I don't know about you all, but I don't want wireless gameplay in a portable. never have, never will.
When I play (gameboy SP) I am just killing a few minutes here and there, I don't plan on getting hooked up and
fragging anybody.
I have though about this with regard to the GBA-SP and decided that the only good games on it are RPGs. Want to know why?
Because other game types like shooters or platformers require bigger screens and better graphics.
I know, I know, there are good non-rpg games on the SP, but of the people I know who play with these, they almost ONLY play
RPGs. Indeed it becomes physically painful to hold and stare at a gameboy screen for a game like sonic or castlevania. RPGs at least afford
you the opportunity to move and or look around.
Who knows, I might freak out if I see one in person and decide I must have one, but I sincerely doubt it. If I haven't bought a GP32 yet,
I am most certainly not getting one of these...
The real discussion here is not to N-Gage or not to N-Gage,
it is to TAPWAVE or wait for PSP.....anybody?
I am a bit surprised Sony didn't post some prototype shot of the psp just to take the steam (if it has any) out of the N-Gage launch.
Maybe tomorrow...
stole my thunder, Jungle guy.
I am tempted to preorder this bad boy myself, but have decided to wait and see what the games look like.
Right now the Gameboy is good enough, and I don't want to have to buy a 1gb sd card.
Just wish there were some cool mods for the gameboy, like an MPEG4 plug in or something that would turn it into a good multimedia player.
Sony PSP is right around the corner....
I can't believe this, what a dissapointment.
How are all these children who are getting left behind supposed to get a good education if taxes are not taken from selfish consumers?
I know a certain elementary school that has to share computers. There are, say, 5 computers for 20 kids. How would you feel at work if your boss told you, "Hey, Cmdr Burrito, you are going to have to share this pc with charlie here." Not to mention the fact that these machines, which dumb down our kids by weening them on the win-doze inyourface, are, at best Pentium 3s. No wonder our kids are so damn stupid.
That's just the tip of the old iceberg people. without these taxes, we will not be able to afford any tax cuts. So kiss those goodbye.
And don't forget perscription psycho-active drugs for your kids. Who is supposed to pay for that? Without tax revenue from the internet I will have to go back to beating my kids when I find him using Kazaa on my computer! Imagine that, not taxing the internet actually causing the physical injury to our children.
Fine, fine, if you selfish bastards want a nation of uneducated, unmedicated, bruised and soar-assed kids then be that way. As for me, I am going to pay these taxes anyway. That's right, I will just send a check at the end of every month, (anonymously of course) to the government. I will not be a part of the problem.
Chip on my shoulder? CHIP ON MY SHOULDER!?!?
Why you no good, stinking, linux hugging, twelve sandwich eating, slackware loading, All your bases are belong to us quoting, er ah jerk!
Seems like you just don't like varying opinions. Slashdot is LIVING PROOF that I don't need facts to back up a microsoft critisism.
It wasn't bitching either.
I am not ignorant nor do I care that a corrupt Linux Kernal was released. I think Linux is a waste of time. Sort of like reading your response to my post was a waste of time. Or your mother feeding you when you were a baby was a waste of time.
Have a nice day you elite hacker!
Because I was afraid that a new patch would CAUSE a problem (as they frequently do) and leave my system less stable than before.
I guess I learned my lesson, install any piece of crap MS tells you to.
To say that most people here don't believe in free music is naive at best.
For the most part I was just yanking chains here, and I agree with your response, however, I do think that the vast majority here could care less about the rights of anyone with more money than they have, including musicians.
So it's alright to steal music off the internet because music should be free, but when someone takes free software and violates the precious GPL it is the worst thing ever?
I think the GPL should not apply in this case. If people want to use and modify the software, so be it. This will encourage open source developement!
When the game comes out,
If it is worth it people will upgrade and not really care.
Plus they will fix it. What are they going to do blow off everyone who runs a geforce?
I will wait and see.
Who knows, the chances of this game meeting the hype is pretty slim anyway.
The thing that CS and HL have is a special feel to them. When you are blazing away at someone with a machine gun, it has a solid realistic feel. When someone jumps past you and you blast them out of the air with the shotgun you know you got them right away.
Call it collision detection or whatever, no other FPS IMHO has this. UT is a great game, but the FPS experience in HL is just "richer".
Tribes2 cannot be compared in any way to HL. Sorry, but it can't. It may be fun, but for raw, gut wrenching, blast your way to glory fun HL is the one. period.
I have tried them all, and I keep coming back to the king. I really want to find a FPS that has better graphics and gameplay, but it doesn't exist.
Think about it, HL has been around how long?
I hope that HL2 can follow in it's own footsteps, but I am not holding my breath.
HA HA HA!!!!
Nice, now non-subscribers are assured to get only outdated stories.
You guys just can't accept that your non-profit status can seem to generate revenue, can you?
Slashdot Mirror
Neither will this iPid thingy. Wait and see. A flash player is still 200$ The way some people swallow unsubstantiated hype is hysterical.
You can't look it up? Do you know what a dumbass is?
Iriver has one. http://www.iriveramerica.com/products/iGP-100.asp Rio has one. Now apple gets into the game. La-dee friggin da.

So, this new handheld system, will it have a backlit screen or what? ;)

If I had 20 MS servers and one of them crashed every day, then obviously I have idiots ruunning the damn things.
.NET sucks and ASP can't scale.
Except web servers which crash all the time because
But hey! That is the price of RAD!
Screw it, it doesn't matter. I hate the way this commie pinko site jumps on Gates every time he bends over.

Enough said in the subject.
Such a lot of work to create an elevator with only two floors...

Another peice of Vaporware!
I am going to put this right next to my
roll-out big screen tv and my hovercraft!
