Exactly dude. The control actually makes the games! How else could Nintendogs be played? Or course one can always use a mouse but it takes away the personal touch when petting the dog. This touch screen control makes this game possible. There're many more such as Big Brain Academy, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan, and surprisingly Tony Hawk's American Sk8land that uses/needed a touch screen. TH needed it because you really run out of buttons/hands for tricks, heh.
This time around with the Wii, golf is no longer about pixel-perfectness of your middle finger on the A button, or an awkward slide with the mouse; jedi knight isn't about pwning noobs with circle strifing; and house of the dead might not come out with a typing version anymore.
And it was never the console that makes me buy the console, or the brand or technology for that matter. It's the games. SMB for NES, Y's for PC Engine, Crazy Taxi for DC, GT4 and WE for PS'2, and now if Mr. Lucas say one word, I would kill for the Wii.
Whoever posted this article probably never met anyone who can't sing, or who had formal training and still can't sing, or those who think they can sing but it's way off, or in my sister's case, can sing, but in a different key eventhough she hears the song at the same time in karaoke.
What I meant by "can't sing" isn't the inability to give a tonal vocal jibjab, but that no matter how hard they try, can't really grasp the trick to singing (ignoring the breathing factor already here). But at the same time there're those who never had formal music training and can sing perfectly well on their first try (first poke at karaoke).
I've also found that those who can't sing usually can't whistle. As whistling is like blowing with a specific vocal cord position.
And this article's telling me, if my sister goes thru the same training I did (pretty shitty, 2 years of highschool band, 1 year in choir and that's it), she'll be singing like me. I don't chink so.
Sorry:) When I was typing that and forgot my BR's I know capable (economics major) will correct me. I know I was wrong btw cuz I did do ECO101. But I had to paint the picture to make people think. In fact you points are completely true and valid. And I apologize if mine was too extreme and I agree it's completely ignorant. My apologies.
I mean here I sit working my ass, succumbed to my own ignorance. Well of course I smile when I turn on my NDS Lite:) And that ain't no barter.
However it does make you think doesn't it. Whether someday a star-trek no money society will actually come from the way we do things today. Who, and what group will ban money so to speak. Who would give up the "freedom" as you stated, or as someone developed the "transporter" to materialize "things", money really goes away. And the NYSE magically gone.
I truly hope that the answer is yes, we'll get there. But the rational side of me tells me otherwise. The greed of us.
This world and the way we live it will never end. If you take a moment and meditate with me:
Money is a form of control developed by the powerful. The barter system would transfer power semi-randomly, and those who hunger for power cannot allow that. A group of these smart people developed money. That in turn developed way to make it. A job, which is another form of control. Not a career but a job I am talking about.
I am not talking about mr. gates. For he's also caught in this vortex of control because the world we live in now, everyone is stuck in this. It's so scary cuz it's no longer the group of smart men, it's became an idea. Just like terrorism, an idea. And ideas can't be beaten. Those who think they're in control (the riches) are actually not because as Neo said, you're only in control if you can turn it off. Today, even the Saudi's with oily can't turn this off. And we're fucked.
If you look as far as you can into the future, this form of existence will not end unless a world war 3 happens in which case, the space exploration will be pushed back further. To me, I am not afraid of dying from a worldwide nuclear strike. I am sad that I KNOW the world we live in ain't ever gonna change, even after I am long gone.
Worse yet, I hardly get after auction offers, as ebay clamped down on emailing members outside the control of their system a few years back.
I am sorry to hear your story it seems you worked for what you've got today. If you ever sell on eBay again, stick a piece of contact information in the package you ship so the buyers can contact you directly and bypass eBay. Just a thought.
Ah that's good to hear. Good job btw. I was wondering why the OC result on the page was so bad. Sometimes we really don't need that 15fps but I can't justify my purchases, as you said the middle cards are the ones with most value, but we go ahead and get the extreme ones anyway. I can't justify my purchase if I don't OC the hell out of it. Eventhough we know it'd only last 6 months before somethings replace it.
I totally understand the peacefulness of a quiet computer:) But most of the time my winamp is on and I don't notice the fans anyway. When I need to turn up the fans, I usually have my headphones on for games and if I do 4.1 for games, they're up high:).
It moggles my bind to imagine someone buying that card within the same generation just for the noise it reduced versus framerate gains that's all.
The main problem is dell or anybody can't fool "the gamers". We know that 2k rig can be put together with 4 hundies so we went ahead and do it. For the average consumer, a 2k "gaming rig" sound like something they don't need and to gamers, it's a rip-off.
Alienware I believe tried to fill the gap with fancy machines but in the end, I'd trust me coolermaster case more than that big alien-head case that can't lie down on its side.
Went and looked at the OC results and well, it's like nil. Why bother with watercooling when you can't squeeze more clocks out of it. I believe the vid fan isn't the noisest part in the box?
Ah so that's why we got the fake Gucci bags. I live in Hong Kong and well I guess the Brits did a good job for us cuz when I grew up, cheating is regarded as incompetence, bad, shameful, ugly, and ghey.
But from your experience I guess I understand why I feel threaten every time I go to China (HK is part of China now btw).
Ze reason is in itself. These "future potential professors" are cheating to get in school. And you want your kids to be taught by them. I don't chink so.
Whatever Jack is doing to Chuck this moment, he better not answer his damn phone because the moment he does, Chuck Norris will roundhouse kick Jack even when ziptied and send him back to CTU.
The best games are those which throw you into the midst of things and let you figure out how to play
I completely agree. CoD2 and I don't remember if CoD1 did the same, or MoH. Or ever HL1. These game made me go wow in the first level. The very first level where you either think you're in training, or it's gonna be mickey mouse but it turned out that it's real battle (in a soft way). Kinda like the different way movie starts now. Instead of rolling me the full credit, start with Samuel Jackson kicking ass, then tell me it's from paramount pictures..
I doubt it's the start/stop. I get sick in some parts especially the ones with glass floors. But the start stop never bothers me in CS:S; it's how sniping works. I think it might be the FOV, or the photorealistic texture finally fooling our brain that we're moving.

How would you like it if someone displayed your entire personal life (simple or shocking as it may be) in a deliberately disparaging fashion? Or perhaps (we don't actually know in this case), they make a bunch of crap up about you.
I offer evil ass 4 face human beings $10,000.00 to disprove self-inflicted Taoism x 4 creation principle by making up a bunch of crap about me and post it on the net WHILE getting posted on/.
It was as extreme for me in the area of privacy. But I choose to play games and have "computer" as my primary hobby because it's the cheapest hobby. It gives me the most hours of enjoyment for the least amount of money, whether you bought the software or not.
In this whole world only, my best friend and my cousin know this. My parents thought it was addiction and I don't wanna make them feel sad by telling them I can't afford a game at the billiards. So I stuck to Hugo House of Horror instead.
