And have you gotten easily over a thousand hours of time out of HL and at least 500 out of BF1942, *single-player*? Otherwise you're not making a fair comparison.
Some people still appreciate good single-player games.
After foolishly attempting to run the demo on my six-month-old PC, I can confirm Microsoft's vision of Combat Evolved is shooting their other corporate branches in the feet.
Actual forum exchange: Player - "Why can't we have both male and female characters on the same account?" Gravity Corp. - "Maybe that way you will encounter less HOMOSEXUAL!"
That particular one is just cultural standards at work, I guess, but there are many other precedents of Gravity hardly giving a fsck about their US playerbase.
Not because their argument is right, but because they are actually seeking a solution instead of just obscene amounts of money. It's very refreshing, isn't it?

Some would say millions of consumers, in bedrooms and offices the world over, are doing a good job of dictating terms to the suits in music and film subsidiaries of the major entertainment conglomerates. But when the RIAA goes after a 12-year-old girl or confused pensioner, who are they going to call? Of course the answer could well be leading IP lawyer Fred von Lohmann from the Electronic Frontier Foundation, given his track record fighting the controversial US Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Can currently be found defending Streamcast in a case brought by 28 entertainment companies.
Office workers will no longer bash their brains out against the copier when the presentation they worked on for a month is corrupted irretrievably fifteen minutes before the executive meeting.
So SCO will still be spreading FUD and delaying lawsuits when Linux 9.0 comes out, with long-awaited time traveling capability? Sounds plausible to me!
"Its like a manufacturing plant owner who allows their facility to fall into disrepair for years. When someone gets hurt on the job, they then rush to make the repairs.
No, this is like the employee refusing a doctor who can determine the extent or reality of his injuries, and demanding $699 from every person who bought something made at that manafacturing plant.
Yeah! Everyone knows a CPU's quality is directly proportional to the amount of heat it dissipates. And you can't even soft-boil an egg on a C3, let alone fry one... what a piece of junk.
One day back in junior high, I was in a lab full of old Macs. Netscape suffered a lag attack and decided I wanted to go to 'hoo.com', not 'yahoo.com'. Hilarity ensued.
Anyone use one? I'm considering buying a USB model and would appreciate feedback.
Seems a lot of people are crazy over the IBM Model Ms. But I'd rather not buy a PS/2 keyboard in this day and age, and I like all the utility keys on the Sun. I use my Compose key occasionally and would have nowhere to map it to on the Model M.

Max Payne has mods too. Very good ones.

Ragnarok Online was amusing in that respect.

Overlords, buddy.

It may have a lot of pretty green boxes, but if you look at the columns on the far right, it's often slower then ext3 and never faster then ext2.
Generally, "Linux" keyboards are 101 keys with Ctrl and Caps Lock in their God-given place (e.g. swapped from the usual.)
Some also follow the Sun layout, with "Meta", "Compose" and the "AltGr" key mentioned in the blurb.

IBM and Motorola both produce PowerPC chips. What's your point?
I think mod points are distributed according to what percentage of posts by a given user contain "fp", "mod parent up" or "natalie portman".
MYST was made in HyperCard.
'Nuff said.
As if that's any better. All your music files were just overwritten by Madonna saying "What the fuck do you think you're doing?"

But in Linux, you could write a script to complete Xfreecell games automatically for you, and run twenty instances in parallel!
Did he work alone, or was Babelfish involved?
Well, BSD users scroll back on the console by hitting it and working the PgUp/PgDwn keys.
That's long-winded. Try just "Evil will win, because Good is dumb."

Can't wait for the Prescott!
VeriSign is better then porno.

I think that particular site is defunct, though.

Whoa there, don't forget the expansion packs. >.
Couldn't one or two of these guys give you a free trial, too?
