Does anyone remember the show "Video Power"? This game show had a real cheesey early 90's hip-hop opening. Players would go through various rounds, including video game trivia, and head to head competition. The winner went on a run through this "Fun House"y maze grabbing games and other prizes that were all over the place.
How about the cartoon with that dude and all the characters from the popular NES games? IIRC, Megaman, Samus, and Simon Belmont were there... I wonder if you'd see all those publishers collaberate like that to sell again
In that case, they are doomed to collapse under the weight of their own hubris, emulators or not. It's not like Sony and Nintendo are just sitting on their hands.
I'm glad somebody else out there actually played Rocket Knight Adventures. One level I remember quite vividly involved platform-hoping, but stalactites blocked the view of your character. The rapidly rising and falling water beneath you reflected everything you couldn't see upside-down. Quite a unique level, in my experience. Jumping at an enemy and button-mashing as rapidly as possible was great fun, too. The game could sure use a GBA rerelease.
At what point does a bios become an operating system in and of itself. Seems like all the features this thing has will require more than just basic input/output.
In the initial Simpsons script drafts, one of the running themes was going to be that Bart idolized Krusty instead of his father, Krusty giving him the nurturing he needed through TV. Pretty much how it ended up, although off camera we find the Krusty is much worse than Homer has ever been. Anyways, I think this is the reason they were designed to look very similar. If I'm wrong, please correct me.
The quality of these posts is getting much better. For instance, this "mini-review" only has three or four sentence fragments, one misspelled word, and two run-on sentences. Go slashdot!
BTW, it's not FLCL, and if it's not FLCL, I don't give a rats ass.
That's what I can't stand. It's one thing to hear someone say something stupid. They may not know better, but when a group of people choose to be ridiculous, well, my sympathy goes way down.
What's interesting about the protests about the project is that the political types that represent the area where the hole is are fine with the project... it brings plenty of jobs to their area, and they're convinced of the safety.
You are so fucking wrong it boggles the mind. I'll challenge you to read this article and think before you support bullshit like this in the future.
And as a resident of Las Vegas, may I personally say, fuck you.
Ah, but the first place hover showed up was on the first release of the Windows 95 Upgrade disc. How do I know this? Cos when Windows 95 came out, I was 12.
I know it's corny, but there really has never been a system that has rolled with the punches as well as the Mac. I hope for twenty more years and beyond.
You know how it is? When you don't get enough fibre in your diet. Things get all, well, you know, repressed, which is the nice way of putting it. Then, you have a prune juice, or have a fat friend jump on your stomach, and before you know it, you feel like the fog has lifted, and everything is going to be okay.
Damn it, milk just shot out my nose and now it's gonna feel weird all day.
Ya know, ever since I heard about them, I've been very skeptical about the hype that has surrounded this band.
First time I had ever heard of them was on Conan... and it wasn't simply that they were on Conan, they were on Conan for a whole week! Immediately I sensed foul play... how could such a insignificant band get such serious coverage. Could it be that I completely missed some strange single? Nope.
Then, a couple months later, I heard the first single on the radio. It was.. okay. Nice beat but no real point, imho. But mho isn't important here, because, somewhere, someone or something was working very hard to ensure this group's popularity.
This fall, MTV aired their yearly Video Music Awards, (which I'll refrain from commenting on.) I managed to catch Metallica's performance at a friend's house. Their set consisted of one medally of popular songs, and then their own song "Frantic," which nobody seemed to recognize (go figure.) Anyways, their medally consisted of four songs, including Nirvana, Jimi Hendrix, Micheal Jackson, and... get ready... The White Stripes!?! What the hell?!? Since when did those amateurs get good enough to stand with the likes of Kurt Cobain? Clearly we're seeing the Pop Culture Aluminati at work here, trying very hard to cram that band down our throats, although by the looks of things, it appears the public isn't buying it.

Finally, a technological fix for a social problem.
You're thinking of guns, dude.

the audience utters a collective "wha?"

How come Homer and Krusty look like clones?

Fuck you. It's our desert, not yours. When Nevada builds a nuclear power plant, maybe we'll consider it.
The truth is that presently, we don't know of a cleaner, ecologically-safer way to generate power than fission.
Really? What about this, this, or this.
You are only looking at a very narrow slice of the big picture.
Both of you are scum.
All I have to say is "daymn!" She is hot! Like, nuclear hot!

It's like the laptop version of my sister!

Reminds me a lot of these guys.
All hail Aemima!
Best - album - ever!
My favorite display format technology has always been paper.
Now I can pay thousands of dollars to look like a jackass, and I won't even have to look at the people laughing at me!

So, nya nya nya nya nya nyah!

pricely correct, dude
It's like Puss 'n Boots...
You have real people.. then they start pretending they're someone else... then they become that person!
Does any one else think they're building an army?
lol... that's hilarious
One of the largest man-made lakes in the world is right outside of Vegas. It would make for a wonderful place to dispose of bodies in the game, just as the mob has done for years.
Maybe throw in a little desert driving and I'd be one happy camper, wreaking havoc upon my home town!
