Wait till you get to college. At least here (Penn State) the DS is great between classes, and at night hangin out in the dorms. It's hard to play a regular console when you share a TV with two other guys (especially if the three of you all have CSI addictions.)
Although it rarely leaves my room, the DS get's plenty of play around here.
I am a huge fan of the show, and i think "Out of gas" is not such a great episode to get started on. It's all charecter development. watch them in order, they actually do fit that way
(By the way, my favorites are "Ariel" and "War Stories")
known troll or not, if a comment is worthwhile, it should be modded up. Also, you can't really take fault in him being a Microsoft Apologist, i mean it's not like Bill's a Nazi or anything.
Actually, that IS fud. Binaries in linux are pretty much universal, and libraries could be linked statically and/or provided locally to the game. All of this could be packaged in a loki installer a-la UT2004. it works, i've seen it.
Hate to reply to the same post twice but i thought of something else: Non-gamer parents with Gamer kids. If the parents buy the console for the kids, and at some point pick up and play with it...there's a new market right there.
Well, right now i own a PC that runs slackware (not really for games, except unreal tournament). I also own a DS and an SNES. My roomate owns a playstation 2. As a casual gamer, The DS is the most attractive to me, because of it's simplicity and it's "pick up and play" paradigm. I do read slashdot every day (including the games section) just because i'm a gadget freak and like to keep up on this sort of thing. That said, I am bored with offerings by Microsoft and Sony becuase they seem to be stuck in a rut. I think i'm not the only person that is excited to see a fundamental change in games, if only because it will bring about NEW experiences. Also, in my experience, simplicity does not nessesarily mean not fun. Unreal Tournament couldn't be simpler: shoot the guys. Meteos couldn't be simpler: line up blocks. These are the two most addictive games i've ever played.
That being said...Nintendo will most likely get my money this time around, unless Sony does something surprising.
Slashdot Mirror
I agree. Using Meanwhile instead of the stock client saves me a bit of grief

Does it matter?

They're always happy and ready to please
Hey...worked for seinfeld
Plus that would open up a new level of dick jokes...

I don't think this is so much an IM app as a filesharing one...
I've actually been looking into that purchase...it is in fact 2d, but i believe that it also has 3d portions as well.
You are an idiot.
Not so fast...i don't think the PSP makes any money for sony either.
Just curiosity, not a flame:
How does one use an iPod without owning a computer?

Firefox is at most half as buggy as IE...and at least not buggy at all.

Excel files can get pretty big when you have obscenely large tables of, say, customer data on them.
The planets in meteos are not really just skins, they also affect the physics of the game...things like gravity, play width, etc.
We don't need spelling and grammer check, that's what ACs are for!

I was thinking Ender's Game too...
