The price has remained the same, but remember that back in the days of yore a lot more cost of the game was involved in it's medium.
Yes, but remember, those Atari 2600 cartridges usually had a development team of one. Today, you need dozens of programmers, artists, modelers, musicians, sound effect engineers, voice actors, writers, QA engineers, and a project management staff.
The game is ten frikkin years old. It's graphics are 2D sprites displayed at a whopping 640x480. And to this very day, you can go to any Wal-Mart or Best Buy and find copies stocked on the shelves.
Arthas' own personal road to hell was paved with the best of intentions, but he was only capable of seeing the world in stark black and white -- no middle ground.
In the AD&D 2nd Edition Player's Handbook, they described what behaviors would cause a Paladin to lose his abilities permanently. The "textbook" example was the Paladin who, upon entering a city suffering from an epidemic, razes the city to the ground in order to stop the disease from spreading. Funny, how the "Paladin" Arthas in Warcraft III began his fall by entering a city suffering from an epidemic, and razing the city to the ground in order to stop the disease from spreading.
It's not the number of server requests as it is a problem with "user experience". You don't want an entire page to refresh on the browser just because you switched tabs.
Many of the discussions of the future at CERN and the LHC era end with the question - "Yes, but how will we ever keep track of such a large project?" This proposal provides an answer to such questions. Firstly, it discusses the problem of information access at CERN. Then, it introduces the idea of linked information systems, and compares them with less flexible ways of finding information.
It then summarises my short experience with non-linear text systems known as hypertext, describes what CERN needs from such a system, and what industry may provide. Finally, it suggests steps we should take to involve ourselves with hypertext now, so that individually and collectively we may understand what we are creating.
This being said, I'd say that the LHC has already paid for itself a thousand times over.
Absolutely not. Double jeopardy means you are tried twice in the same jurisdiction. You can commit a single "crime" and find yourself charged in state, federal and civil court.
I specifically remember a Pimp in Fallout 2 telling you "No Cleveland Steamers!" when you took one of his girls back to her room. I assume the rule still stands.;)
That's not so bad....
You'll find other toilets whose bowls are already filled with rather graphical... biological matter. Attempting to use these toilets will result in you drinking from them as well.

Exactly. When it's time to get down to the literal wire, the JVM has to make native system calls to get its job done.
The compiler output *is* the same regardless of platform. Bytecode is Bytecode.
Ummm, perhaps you need to go back and play FO1 & 2 again. I think you'll find their quests to really be no more engaging than the ones in FO3.
No, your character is just a wus. :) I drop giant radscorpions effortlessly.

Every game that allows modded content requires that you purchase the "core" game first. There's nothing new here.

Perhaps they should try something like:
"GIVE US OUR $699 LICENSING FEE BACK, YOU COCKSMOKING TEABAGGERS!" ?
Ohh, I think we already know what that would look like.
"In Space, no one can hear your Velcro tear."
Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!!
Spathi are at their most dangerous when they're running away. That means their B.U.T.T. cannon is facing you. ;)
Please don't be so *frumple*. *Happy Campers* are best!
No, it isn't!
Absolutely not. Double jeopardy means you are tried twice in the same jurisdiction. You can commit a single "crime" and find yourself charged in state, federal and civil court.
*Whoooosh!*
The Day the Earth Froze: "Have the log back by ten. AND STAY OUT OF MY SISTER!"
Don't you mean, "Attack of The the Eye Creatures."

The devil's in the details. Were you not paying attention when they explained why they behaved like Vampires?
Wow! You were able to make that conclusion out of a mere 30 minutes of play time?
