This game gives the goods pretty well. You shoot, pilot big ass robots around that shoot, kill a bunch of bugs, and kill a bad guy in a bigger robot suit then yours. What's not to like?
Sure the storyline is kinda flat, but your not playing it to be emotionally propelled into something right?
Shoot the bugs, get their guts to stay warm... Love the game.
One of the nice things about inland North America is that there isn't a large amount of large predators. Sure there is the occasional mountain lion, and the odd bear when you get in the north and west areas, but mostly, no large predators.
The idea of bringing large (huge) predator cats is insane. First we don't have a food supply that's large enough for them so we have to bring their food supply here, then, bring them here. Then, they will probably eat us occasionally. I can just see lone Telco trucks out in the middle of no where fixing some broken circuit being eaten by a few lions.
What about farmers/ranchers/cattle movers?
Screw the tigers/lions. Bring back the buffalo, horses, & wild turkeys.
You have never tried to get a cert in Excel or Access have you? My Wife has those certs and she does stuff in Excel that just isnt right, creating all holy damn in that program. I am glad I dont have to deal with that crap. Give me SMS and Exchange any day. Excel is hard That stuff is easy.
Hungry People are more important then a damn fish. (I dont see a fat person in any of those pictures so they probably need any food they can get)It's big & Ugly, looks like table fodder to me.
It sounds more like just general "I am pissed at windows and going to choose Mac because I like the white plastic case".
The more use an operating system gets, the bigger target it becomes, period. Let us not forget the auto-installing widgets in OS 10.4
Also I would look into the Apple licensing rules as they are considerably more restrictive then Microsoft.
About Quality of hardware & Software: My XP machine at home runs for months without rebooting. I have wintel servers at work that hum along just fine. The only thing is you cannot buy a mac at Wal-Mart, but then again you shouldn't be buying a 300 pc at Wal-Mart seeing it crash because it's built with crap and shouting MS SUCKS!!!
I just need to say this: G4 I will forever dislike you for making one of my favorite shows other then Good Eats away. You didnt take it off the air, but you made it into something that no one could love.
You made it into something dirty and lame. Others just as I are grieving for their loved program.
I hope you get bought by HGTV; G4, and all your Gamer people are made to wield garden spades,dig in the dirt, and learn how to serve things on crackers.
There will always be people who abuse policies. But, if you make it hard to do business with someone, they will stop doing business with you.
In this story, if the woman spent 2,000 bucks a year on cloths, say she returned 500 bucks worth in the same year, then the store is making 1500 from her. Now, since she has a bad feeling, and doesn't like to shop there anymore, she might only spend, 200-400 a year there, or maybe no money at all. So now instead of making 1500 a year on her they make much less. The returns she brought back could be resold anyway, so the business is not taking a loss.
There are two things; first they want people to buy on impulse, (such as clothing) and they must realize impulse will fade away sometimes. Returns are to be expected.
Another point is that returns are apart of business. They just are, and they must be ready for them. If someone conducts a lot of business with them, they will probably have more returns then a casual customer who only buys once in a while.
I have a wireless I use for work and stuff, but at the same time I have an old Linksys AP I have broadcasting totally open. Lock Down the one you want to use, and just let the other sit online plugged into nothing.
I do agree, I think a company should give you the tools to do your job. If they are after hours, a cell phone and laptop. and so forth. However, I do not own my laptop, that is the companies, and I think the Computer should only have the companies' data on it. It is theirs, not mine, and I dont want to have company data in my possession.
I do not let my company pay for my broadband, or my cell phone. I do not want my company to be able to summon my internet records or anything of the kind. Its my personal attachment to the internet, and I dont want to answer to anyone about it. If I want to look at nudie pics, well I'm over 18, its all good. Same goes for a cell phone. I dont want to feel like I am using company resources to speak to my family. Sure work is going to call it, and it will cost me money, but I rather take the small hit for that call or calls so I dont have to look my boss in the face and apologize for calling my wife for 20 minutes a few times.
Also, lets face it. It's do more with less. We are in a war here, between ourselves. There a tons of techies that will pay for anything to get a job. We as IT workers/managers are all in a war to generate results at the least cost. At times we must remember that.
I dont like it... but who does? I am just glad I have a job now and no longer job less.
Hey, I am glad they are bringin' the stuff back. Like Mega Man annivers collection. I am having more fun playing it then I am the new mega man series, or Ninja Gaiden. Sometimes a good old straight forward side scroller is what we need. instead of crammin all sorts of crap in the games and "10003245 hidden weapons!" how about making simple and fun. I go to work to tax my brain, skills, and my body. Why do I want to keep taxing my brain and frustration levels when I am "playing" a game. I am not playing anything I am suffering a game.
Anyhow, make games fun and simple like they used to be. Case in point = Mega Man.
fight against the copyright machine. If you want to see old men making complete asses of themselves just go to the local nursing home. There is plenty of them, plus, admission is free, and you can tape record as much as you want. No DRM restrictions there.
I bought the game cube because I knew it would last... just like all nintendo hardware.
Besides the Super Nintendo I have now, and N64 are both kicking some tail. I dont need to worry about Nintendo Hardware surviving, like I do with the Ps2, The infamous SCPH-3001's.......
I like to play games, my games, and I like to play them a lot. Either make your system last till the end of time like Nintendo does, or put in backwards compat.
*nods* Xbox2 not having Backward compat, will really hurt it. The games I am buying now I am looking towards the new systems. I was thinking of Full spectrum warrior, but if that will not be able to be played in the next Xbox, I will purchase Mega Man Anniversery for PS2, or Game Cube because I am simply going to be able to play it on the next hardware.
Not only has microsoft lost the battle on the next console, they lost the battle selling titles now because people know they wont be playing them on the next xbox platform.
Kinda makes me sad, I love CS on Xbox, and Ninja Gaiden.
I just returned my cable box and took off the two packages that had TechTV and G4.
I liked the screen savers, I mean there is a lot of little tid bits you can pick up while watching it. Leo kind of annoyed me, you could crap on his face and he would still say, "YOU CAN DO THAT ON A MAC!? THATS GREAT!"
I never trusted who smiled so much when speaking about tech. Then again I laughed my ass off when he was trying to push an AGP card in a PCI slot and Roger had to set him straight.
Oh well, my cable company makes $15 less on me now and I am reading more books. I Think I am the victor here.
Sorry to Kevin, Sarah, Patric, Leo,& Roger. I know what unemployment feels like.
I will miss the show, but I have a public library, time to make use of it.
I was lucky to find a tech job at a computer repair center and network conslt company here in Cent. Illinois. Almost 80% of my workload is getting rid of spyware, its just nasty!
But then again, it got me out of un-employment so I cannot complain to much.
To turn a small profit, they have outsourced over seas and cut the people that brought them to their current size. If turning on the people who made you what you are isnt treason, then what is?
But there is a lot of stuff about an XP machine to remote fix another XP machine or lower. It seems if you use an XP machine to VNC another XP machine or "lower" OS like Win2k you are allright. But if you use Win2k to Remote fix an XP machine, you are in violation.
*shrugs* If you have windows legally on both machines it shouldnt be a problem!
it would probably have a pro version that would help you get to the chick's home or get said chick to your home. It really dosent matter who's home you go to does it? As long as the both of you go to the same home...

Because I was one of the massess that felt the sting of the PS2 Disc Read Error monster.

Sorry Sony, I am going to wait 2 years before I will buy it.
However I love my Nintendo DS
Nintendo Hardware = Tank.
Go to help, about:

Expire? Why should it expire if it is free?

I am sure Microsoft will find a way to double charge this with fee's or they all ready have some way to recoup their "loss" in this.
You never get something for nothing......ever..
I'm not bitter.
