    but by a a few pixels???? no the truth is your preceive a difference but Im sure if you where to do a test where you where told it was a better mouse, but it actually was just the same, you would feel it was a better mouse, but infact be tricking yourself into that feeling.

    there comes a point where its scientifically impossible to preceive a difference, its just that simple our senses are not that good, even people with handicaps whos body has learn to compensate with another sense still dont have senses powerful enough to preceive a change after a point. Your fooling youself if you think you can, cause there is plenty of scientifc evidence that proves you wrong

    bullshit that this is a Troll post, he's EXACTLY right.... THIS IS A AD PURE AND SIMPLE. Human's cant tell the difference between 300 dpi and 1000 dpi anyway, its just the industry TELLING you can that makes people think you can.

    When it comes to gaming a higher DPI mouse simply will not make you a better player, gaming does.

    This is the same bullshit the Audio industry uses half the time, there comes a point where our sense's are just NOT accute enough to tell the difference between one thing or the other.

    For those who dont know, the NY Post is little more than a regonal Tabloid, they have no honest reporting anywhere in the paper and very often copy other peoples articles from other papers with a yellow journalistic slant. NO one around here honestly takes them seriously, which is exactly how we should take this peice of garbage

    yes, actually its funny you mentioned the game cause I just sold it back to EB today along with a bunch of other games

    freaking 34 bucks back for a bunch of games that cost me more than 300.00 total

    shakes head

    My biggest problem with the game was had I known it was going to be the way it was, i wouldnt have had a problem... I wouldnt have bought it till it was MUCH cheaper, but i would have still played it. It was the fact that the "Epic RPG" was little more than a computerized chose your own adventure book that pissed me off, fun, but NOT what I had been lead to beleive by Square.

    a) the grid system isnt original, it is a copy of one of the old FF leveling up systems b) Characters gaining hitpoints from hits came from FF2 c) lots of games have multiple storyline pan-outs d) I sure didnt feel like i was playing a game, rather I was reading a story e) this game was NOTHING like Square-Enix billed it as as was horrable

    no its illegal too record a convo where the other person DOESNT know they are being recorded (ie THEY knew they where being recoded by Apple, but the guy from Apple didnt know he was being recorded hence illegal.)

    yeah but your adverage user doesnt take that as word and asks to talk to a manager too.

    support person = idiot, you could just look up online to see that battery replacement was a service offered even before they made it a big deal recently. But going around spraypainting signs instead of investigating further or asking to speak to a manager, especially since it IS easy to get into the case to do a replacement anyway = even worse, cause now instead of fighting they have just commited a criminal act that Im sure with Apples lawyers knowing about it, is going to bite them in the ass.

    No I have to be honest, I dont really beleive eveything thats being shown about this deal, for one thing why do they have a recording of the whole thing, in most states its illegal to record phone conversations without the other person knowing (hence the "this conversation may be monitored deal")

    I really hate people sticking up for these two punks, cause while they may have had reasons, the end doesnt justify the means, and its obvious these kids are trying to stir up more trouble than the situation really is.

    ha funny,

    It took me 2 minutes with a screwdriver gently slid under the top portion of the iPod.

    I too have a 1 gen iPod and have yet to have it die and I use it as both a MP3 player and a hard drive for work. Sure they die out (ALL batteries die out) and yes they are expensive, but honestly what those guys did was just plain wrong and the fact people applaud it just makes me shake my head.

    see i was going to say something about that but was afraid i would get flamed for it.

    I was watching a special on getting away from the gold standard (which shockingly enough we really didnt do untill Nixon even though we credit it with FDR) and it talked about how we have now even gotten away from tangible money and how binary (ie data) is the new standard with more transfers done without money exchanging hands than money actually being taken out/ put into banks.

    Some of you may think this is rediculous but it has broad reaching implications.

    for one thing this mean a court of law in a country (China) says virtual items are just the same as real. Likewise it means that there is a legitimate claim to such items, ie a person can own a item even if it is intangable.

    while not so much a issue now, It COULD be one in the future, one that could become a very serious issue. By making things legitimate now you advoid the issues that could come later

    Actually no they dont use ANY paintballs. The US Millitary currently uses an advance tactical simulation modual that attaches the the stock of a standard M-16 rifle of other equipment (aka missles, rocket launchers, M1A1 tanks, you name it) They then don laser vests that sense laser radiation emmited toward them. It also filters out bounced signals so that you cant fire a gun at a mirror and have it hit someone who isnt in the line of sight. (dont ask how I dont know) A hit from any of the weponds on the persons body scores a hit. The weponds fire blanks to simulate the sound and reload factors so recruits HAVE to reload and not just shoot. Yes its one big game of Lazer Tag. Tactical to Practical, and Mail Call shows it all the time.

    your right, that would be the coolest game EVER!!!! So lawyer dude what do you think????

    SCREEEEEECH HUH???? YOUR GOING TO DO WHHHHATTTTTT!!!!! shakes head. honestly this is going to be bad. Even if it does slip below the radar here which it has so far, you know the minute something happens this game will be brought up and thats the end of freely being able to buy games here. This game will piss EVERYBODY off free speech be damned!

    I just think this game is sending the wrong message to the people we have to watch out for, the bleeding heart liberals and the wack job right wingers.
