    I should never have pressed the submit button

    But.. but.. you typed that before you pressed submit, so you must have projected yourself forward in time and then lamented the actions of your past self, but your fingers and any necessary tendons stayed behind in the present (which is already the past) to electronically record your lamentations so they could be submitted on Slashdot as a joke to potentially increase your "karma" which is used for... future projection of yourself? But if your future self was indeed in the future lamenting your past post, then your future self would also be watching the post change right before his future eyes because his present (past) self was currently being channeled the lamentaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH *explodes*

    I wish I had the motivation to share everything hilarious like this I've managed to find in the GTAs, but here's one gem: turn on the "cars float away if you touch them" cheat in San Andreas (http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/action/gta4/hints.htm l).

    Gently touch a cop car with yours (so as not to get a star yet, but so it floats), quick get out and hop on it, and wait for it to float high above the streets. Then shoot the cop car you're standing on, and you will get a star and the cop will get out to reprimand you, only to fall to his death.

    Coordinate with multiple cars for more fun :-)

    PS: GTA 3 is still the best for cop fun, since their strategy to reprimand you is to drive insanely fast in a straight line towards you, with complete disregard for what stands in their way, be it pedestrians, cliffs, etc :-)

    He's the MyG0t of Attorneys. And the best way to make a MyG0t'er leave a server (assuming you can't kick/ban) is for everyone to ignore him.

    I've found that any situation in life can be reduced to a Counter-Strike reference. Or any song; take Brian McKnight's "Back At One", for example:

    verse 1:
    --------
    it's undeniable
    that we should scrim together
    it's unbelieveable
    how i used to say that i'd camp never

    you didnt believe me though
    that i was cal-invite for real
    so let me show you now that i'm leet krew
    of all the things in cal, i will reveal
    woo-oo-oo-ooot

    chorus:
    --------
    ONE you're like a dream come true
    TWO just wanna scrim with you
    THREE girl its plain to see, that you're the only t for me
    FOUR we plant the bomb in b
    FIVE camp and snipe out the c-t's

    "Bad" press can help people out, if they use it right. I'm thinking, oh... say.. Kevin Mitnick?

    If Jack Thompson were to use his bad press like Mitnick did, he'd open a consulting firm to help people protect themselves against frivolous lawsuits from completely-fucking-batshit-crazy lawyers.

    Along the same lines, try the hospital parking lot in Staunton Island when you have 5 stars. There's a short fence at the top of the walls, so when the FBI cars come flying into them, they get some serious (hilarious) air before crashing to their deaths in huge piles.

    Thanks for the most original joke I've seen for a long time on Slashdot. I mean, really, an anti-Microsoft joke about bugs in their software? You're just fucking hilarious.

    They have no problem with charging a 14 year old as an adult when it comes to murder

    I'd say comparing murder to copyright infringement is comparing apples and oranges. It makes sense that a 14-year-old gets tried as an adult for murder, because the loss of a human life is far more important than the money some pop artist is losing.

    This is just the method for them to learn the rules of society

    I don't think that a kid in 2005 is going to find that the "rules of society" #include !downloading_music.h.

    Though he should have said "There are" instead of "it's", he did use "it's" correctly.

    "there are" is indeed correct for the first "it's", but the second one, describing Slashdot's HTML, should have been possessive.

    I play Guild Wars, but I think WoW would be cool if I could afford it. The things you mentioned do suck, but I think the idea of one persistent world (well, one per server I suppose) would be cool... As you were doing a mission, you could run into a friend in the middle of nowhere. You could also play the game with lots of people instead of up to 7 other people.

    I actually think the environment was sufficiently creapy, but the enemies look like shit and would have been just as scary as DOOM1 sprites

    I'm pretty sure the normal mapping, bump mapping, good models, good textures, and the fact that enemies actually look great, completely invalidate your statement. A pixelated sprite wouldn't scare me, at least not in 2005. And I'm fairly certain that you could not have done a better job on the monsters.

    Oh, and since you were being a dick, I will be too. It's spelled creepy, not creapy. Dumbass.

    That screenshot is from Blue Shift, an expansion released for Half-Life.

    To answer to both you and the child poster, Blue Shift came with a high-definition model pack (which updated Half-Life as well), and that scientist in the screenshot (a main character in Blue Shift) was a good demonstration of the HD pack.

    And yes, I would agree that Blue Shift was a bastardization, as you put it. It was only a few hours long, and the story wasn't nearly as interesting or well-done as that of the original Half-Life.

    And for nostalgic reasons, I like the original 8-polygon faces better anyway :-)

    To those of you who use Steam to play Half-Life, they only just recently released Blue Shift on Steam, and later released the high-definition pack.
