This is not true when you consider PC games with dedicated servers run by the public.
Team Fortress Classic (2001), Natural Selection(2002), hell, even the original Quake can still be played multiplayer.
Just make sure the games you buy are available with dedicated servers that can be run by the public, and you will never have this problem.
Game modding has been around forever.
The very earliest I can think of is changing the rules to board games.
Monopoly, for example. Who doesn't play with "house rules" like:
Tax money goes to the Free Parking jackpot.
Double money if you land exactly on GO.
Build with as many houses as you want.
Build two hotels on one property.
etc.
It makes the game more fun and exciting. But makes it take longer too.
Jury duty is an interesting process.
But it is a long process. If you are picked for jury duty, you could spend hours or even days in court.
Think about it, the same people talking about the same crime over and over again. Plus, you don't get paid very much.
So, for most people, you'd lose money by serving.
Just like a cell phone, credit cards are a necessary part of anyone's modern life. But the more you use them (cell phones and credit cards) the more they take over your life. Just keep everything in moderation. Even/.
Why strip out the share-over-the-internet feature as well? Wouldnâ(TM)t this effectively "share" the commercials that the media giants want everyone to see?
This is really sad. Just when you thought technology could work for everyone, The Man comes in with a big lawsuit and stops it in its tracks. This is the RIAA. This is big Petroleum. This is pissing me off.

The judge could tell by looking at the pixels.
I though the UHF frequencies are now being used by ATSC "over the air HDTV."

There, fixed that for you.
Sending me the $5 instead of wasting it on a greeting card would be a blessing.

the last thing I need is to be bombarded by bright flashing graphics and loud sounds!
You mean the ads that say "Click here, you have one message waiting?"
Actually, the UT2003 demo plays pretty good on my P2 400 Geforce2 GTS. It appears to be very video card dependent.
