  6. Sun Server Containers on The Google Navy · · Score: 1

    Wasn't it Sun that had a setup with shipping container filled with servers and networking gear. Converting an cargoship into a data center could be as simple as loading the containers, networking them, and voila instant sea based cluster. Lots of power options as well, nuclear, solar, wind, wave...

  7. Re:Effects of Cannabis on WCG Tournament Director Admits Drugs In E-Sports · · Score: 1

    There are a few beneficial aspects to smoking up for pro gaming. First is the focus that pot gives the user, it makes it easier to immerse yourself in the video game, and focus all your concentration on it. Second is the stress release aspect, where you feel more calm and less stressed out, which is good when your under the gun playing a pro match. Finally is the medicinal aspect of pot. If you play vids for many hours every day it strains your body, eyes, arms and makes your ass sore from sitting. Smoking up eases the discomfort or pain, and allows you to focus on playing and winning.

  8. Re:ETQW on How a Quake 3 Mod Team Turned Into a Successful Studio · · Score: 1

    ETQW is an awesome game, tons of fun to play, and yet it features asymetrical teams, and is still balanced, which must have been a hell of a task, but gives it a great unique feel that lends well to replayablity.

    Pro Gamer Business Plan 1. Buy PC 2. Play Games 3. Go Pro @ e-sport of choice 4. Profit at tournments Digital Artist Business Plan 1. Buy Mac 2. Make Digital Art 3. Sell it/ Blog it/ etc 4.

  15. Shadowrun for X360 on Shadowrun FPS Forums Retired · · Score: 1

    Wasn't really that bad. It was a fun game, a bit half assed with the animation (no animation for going up ladders, just hovering up or down), but had some awesome fun things to do, run backwards at someone teleport behind people and stab them in the back, and the fact that it allowed PC and console gamers to duke it out was fun, I never felt disadvantaged due to the controller.

  16. Re:Or D on Cocaine Vaccine In the Works · · Score: 1

    Actually this could actually decrease alcohol sales. When your drunk, and you snort some blow you seem to return to sobriety, so you drink more beer. Now coke heads will just get drunk and pass out and not be able to buy more beer.

  18. Re:Welcome to the digital age on Study Finds Games Stores Still Selling to Minors · · Score: 1

    It's not about gimmie, gimmie, gimmie. Its about being marketed a product, wanting to PAY for the product, then being discriminated by age and told I am unable to buy a product. Why should someone live in a consumer world, and be inundated with marketing for something that they want, something that they should be able to buy and use responsibility, but denied that because they are too you.

  21. Re:Seems unlikely on Valve Looking to Port Games to Linux? · · Score: 1

    Sure, it seems unlikely because Gabe and Co. were MS employees, but even MS is working with Novelle on Linux, and if Valve is selling id games on steam, and id games work on Linux already, then Valve as a digital distrbution provider may want to push sales on multiple platforms now.
