  1. Mountain King! on On The Quality Of Licensed Game Soundtracks · · Score: 1

    I remember that one, fun game...using the music's volume to find the flame was also pretty neat (the music got louder as you got closer to it and so on)

  2. Medal of Honor on On The Quality Of Licensed Game Soundtracks · · Score: 1

    My favorite original soundtracks would have to be the Medal of Honor series and Tropico series, both have great music that just happens to be in a video game.

  3. Re:Nutjob on Bullet-Proof Xbox Wows Police · · Score: 2, Funny

    "When Gamers Go Mad!" 1 hour of gamers chucking controllers at walls! At least it would probably be more entertaining then most of UPN's lineup.

  4. The tricky part... on Should Developers Listen To All Gamer Feedback? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    is seperating the wheat from the chaff: Remember that "gamer advice" hepled gave us the original NBA hands-sized Xbox controller, as well as the longer/breakaway cord.

  5. Re:Why not PS1? on Midway Arcade Treasures Released, Rated · · Score: 1
    Actually, many of the games on the collection have been released before on the PS1 on one of the following collections:

    William's Arcade's Greatest Hits
    Arcade's Greatest Hits: The Atari Collection 1
    Arcade's Greatest Hits: The Midway Collection 1
    Arcade's Greatest Hits: The Midway Collection 2
    Arcade's Greatest Hits: The Atari Collection 2
    Arcade Party Pak
    Atari Anniversary Edition Redux
    and there's also Konami Arcade Classics

    FYI A few of the games also don't work on the PS2

  6. Where's Perfect Dark Zero? on Rare Grabs Ghoulies For Microsoft, Gets Mixed Results · · Score: 1

    Conker should be fun, but I want Perfect Dark Zero, the first was a great game that was hampered by the N64's limitations. Heck a re-release of the first one with updated graphics would be nice.

  7. Medal of Honor series on Game Music Benefits From Interactivity, Budgets · · Score: 1

    The first time an in-game soundtrack really caught my attention was in the Medal of Honor games...great stuff there.

  8. You call that a shell script?? on IT Training in the Military? · · Score: 3, Funny

    DROP AND GIVE ME TWENTY!

  9. Bah on True Crime - Streets Of L.A. Ratchets Up The Vice · · Score: 1

    If I want 'cinematic flair' I'll go to the movies!

  10. What I want to know is... on Looking For God In Videogames · · Score: 1

    Do spawn-campers, aimbot users and other smacktards go to Virtual Hell?
    [sound of rocket launcher being readied]
    Let's find out...

  11. Dollars short and days late on Capcom, Sega Drop Gamecube Software Prices · · Score: 1

    Nintendo should have made this move a long time ago, they don't have the market share to act like the 800 lb. gorilla anymore. So is there also going to be a drop for 'Player's Choice' titles? (currently $30). Ah well, less money spent on games is always good.

  12. I'll buy that on Dead or Alive Online Announced · · Score: 1
    Yeah, Nintendo is just as bad, probably even worse considering their games are pushed to kids.

    Let's not also forget the recent Rygar (which I haven't had the chance to play yet but I hear is really good). Lots of folks are probably clamoring for another Tecmo Bowl, but just keep Mighty Bomb Jack dead and buried, and we're okay...

  13. Tecmo = The New Capcom on Dead or Alive Online Announced · · Score: 2
    Now all they need is about 20 more iterations of part 2, another version with cutesy versions of the characters, a great puzzle game, and some Game Boy versions of the first 2 games...

    They're certainly milking it for all its worth, aren't they?

  14. Well, somebody's gotta say it! on Infogrames Officially Changes Name To Atari · · Score: 1
    Have you played Atari today?

    Just let it die already. The glory days of Atari are way past gone...

  15. FYI, you can turn off the tracers on GTA To Appear On Xbox and Gamecube In 2004 · · Score: 1

    There's an option in the display portion of the pause menu to turn this off. It got on my nerves too and helps the framerate a hair on the PC version.

  16. If you work for a Defense Contractor... on Are Programmers Engineers? · · Score: 1

    then you would be a Document Engineer... :)

  17. 2-D Engines? on Can Game Developer Unrest Lead to Revolution? · · Score: 1

    Does anyone know of a good 2D game engine? I'd like to do some game programming for fun, but have little desire to deal with the 3rd dimension.

  18. Nobody's perfect... on Dealing with Employers Who Perform Credit Checks? · · Score: 1

    I went through a credit check prior to getting a job at a company that printed lottery tickets. In that instance, it makes sense. They explained why and it didn't bother me.

    BUT if you're not going to be in a position to handle large sums of cash or a company American Express card, then yeah, what's the point?

    Everybody has screwed up somewhere down the line, it doesn't make them thieves...

  19. Old joke, but what the hey... on Car Digital Assistant · · Score: 1

    All gauges and indicators will be replaced with a "General Car Fault" light.

    Most people can barely handle cell phones, that UI had better be REALLY good.

  20. Re:too many verbs on Microsoft foils Xbox hackers with new Config · · Score: 1, Troll

    Don't look at me, it was only 15 words long when I wrote it. :)

  21. The price will never go down on Report: Broadband Too Expensive For Many · · Score: 1

    Well, not in the U.S.A. anyway; look at who's in charge: the telephone companies and the cable companies. Have they ever lowered prices on anything??
