  1. Re:Excellent Game on Review: Dragon Quest VIII · · Score: 1

    same here, i didn't think id like it (i got a burned copy originally) but after hours of playing, i got the real thing. i havent been this pulled into a rpg in a long time.

    to bad the holidays are a busy time of the year, i dont have much time till new years i think

  2. Re:What the hell on High-Tech RepoMan · · Score: 1

    ive seen this before, about 4 years ago. it was only used on people who's credit is sooo bad, they cant trust them otherwise. it works for 2 reason really. it makes sure the company gets the money, and it gives someone with that bad of credit the ability to get a car and go places. something almost needed for anything in life now a days.

    drinking it like there is no tomarrow?

  4. Re:People pay $2.49 for ringtones? on Cellphone Songs Overpriced? · · Score: 1

    no whats worse is, at least for me, that the 2.49 only lasts for 3 months anyways. i really dont see the point of that. if i paid for a ringtone, it shouldn't expire!

  5. Re:Blizzard Sued for death of gamer. on Blizzard Sued for Death of Gamer · · Score: 1

    dont need to, probably only had the one kid.

    would you rather just have the last word false advertizing?

  7. Re:The Jerking of Knees on UK Politicians Threatened By Bully · · Score: 1

    the easiest way to quick finish a fight (is to well. know how) is know a few mean things that in themselves are dirty.

    one i learned to like was when they would get close in of my face (they liked to do that for some reason) was to hed but them only decently hard. it generally really threw them off balance and off guard. since they were the one "intimidating you" then they would generally be quiet and leave. orr... a bigger fight would enseu... my school had a rule about punching... if you didn't punch them, you didn't fight them... being the fun of that.. i tripped them.. allot. but i also had kids growing onto my side cause i was small (60lb 4' in up till 9th grade) and that i tend to protect my friends.

  8. Re:The Jerking of Knees on UK Politicians Threatened By Bully · · Score: 1

    i was a small fry, but quick, i started protecting people in school from bullies... ie: i started beating on the bullies. not th ebest method. but it did seem to change the bullies. never got in trouble. never got caught. dont nessisarily feel good. but let me kind of turn the tides. Bullies should be taken care of more often by the schools though.

  9. Re:Let's be HONEST here on Fighting FUD with Humor · · Score: 1

    ive noticed that. if you click "always do this" it tend to "always use auto play for whatever windows program wants to use this.. not even the default one"

    only way to set them all to that is right click on the drive. properties, and the autorun tab. i wish they had a global shut off that they used to have in 98.

    and also. my usb HDD that i dont keep running all the time. auto play all the time. i just got it to work. but sometimes it turns on in windows with the setup compleetly removed. and i have to do it again.

  10. Re:If this kind if thing is a concern on Intel Slashes Computer Startup Times · · Score: 1

    Not really.
    My mother only uses her computer when she needs to. Which is once a day or two. not often, but the boot time for windows is long anyway, and makes it. boot 15 minutes before use.

    i suppose nothing is as bad as my cell phone. im gonna time the two. i think my phone takes almost as long a boot up as my computer. its sad really. and annoying.

  11. Re:game mods are the new indie games on Is There a Future for Indie Games? · · Score: 1

    ummm... Half life is counterstrike? you can do allot with most engines now a days, youd be suprised how much things can change

  12. Re:Good Investment on Marvel Gets Cash to do 10 Films · · Score: 1

    sometimes.. there even the same actors. or get put in allot of the same things.

  13. Re:Amen Brother! on Death to the Games Industry · · Score: 1

    port police/space/kings quest to DS! i really would like more of those types. less text driven though. more click and still have option to type in things

  14. Re:But what are they wanting? on Death to the Games Industry · · Score: 1

    i though i just got an email saying the pay amounts being way to high for such a simplkistic game. like15$ a month.

  15. Re:I'm on a 100% music CD boycott on RIAA Hands out more Lawsuits · · Score: 2, Interesting

    i would be happy to buy more cd's again if the price was mroe reasonable. they say its expensive because of the label and the booklet and the such in a cd... but then. a dvd movie is about the same price (20$ for a dvd seems good to me) and they have, bigger capacity disc's, color labels and all. though no booklet. its also almost 2 hours longer and has video in it as well. and more people involved in the making of it. (since in a movie they have to do the audio sweetening too) so i really dont see the point of paying more than 10$ for a cd. or if the price stays the same, online being cheaper. cause of them not making a copy physically at all.

  16. Re:It's not "just like shoplifting" on King Kong vs. Movie Pirates · · Score: 1

    make themselves a networked thing ov "preview movies" they come to set top box the day it comes out! ready for people to watch! service costing 40$ to 60$ a month would be worth it for someone with a nice setup.

  17. Re:Caught by the suits: 20 yards and loss of down on King Kong vs. Movie Pirates · · Score: 1

    20$ is worth it for me for most dvd's i have downloaded some, but more cause im worried the movie will be compleet arse and not worth 5c

    cd's on the other hand... i still dont think there worth 15$ or whatever they are now.

    i think they should make a keyboard with analog key setup for gaming (so i dont need a walk/run toggle button) that woudl kick ass.
    is there such a thing out? and woudl any game make use of it right away?

    i just got out of the military, and im just now gettung unemployment (been 3 months) its a bit of a hassle anyways. i wish they did a better check though. im hoping next week to be off of it though (so in total, getting unemployment for maybe 2 weeks)

  21. right.. on DoubleClick Warns Against Ad-Blocking Browsers · · Score: 1

    you know, ad's i dont mind, what i mind is the:
    *Flashing

    *ones now that grow if you go near them and cover buttons
    *ones that just bug you in other ways to go lookie me!!) (yes, im thinking of you poperazzi add)

    i dont mind banners, specially if they have something cool to them, im mad at the more and more annoying things they do with these ad's

  23. Re:That's what I was saying. on 7-Year Old Prequel Fan On ANH · · Score: 1

    or r2 escapes being wiped at first because suddenly the world is in a war and reprogrammign a droid that doesn't seem to have any personallity issues yet drops in problems, they wipe c3p0 because anakin made him.

    i am a huge r2d2 fan though, i think he is a kick ass robot. and i dont think he has been wiped since the start of the first movie (he does the same thing to padme's ship as he did to the falcon) i think he just by the end if a bit messed up from not being erased.

    i also remember someone talking about how he found out and backed himself up into the xwing or cloud city, or the falcon's r2 units so if he did get wiped, he would just come back when he connected to one of them

  25. Re:The Problem: Batteries don't last long enough. on Batteries Becoming Limiting Step For Portable Toys · · Score: 1

    just patented and lots of stuff use em/people use them in things. people are greedy. hell. cd's should have dropped allot. they still wont ever. tapes cost less and are more expensive to make than cd's

    i just see inherent evil in monopolys.

    so price would go up due to the microsoft:office theory of "people pay for this upgraded sh*t?!?!?!? lets do more!"
    yay, i get to bash microsoft and be in topic in a post!
