Not as much as me, you don't. I want Ralsky imprisoned, beaten, chained, ass-raped on a daily basis, shivved, shanked, stabbed, tear-gassed, napalmed, face-raped, cock-punched and sodomized by the most massive, cruel, heartless, multiple-STD-carrying maniac convicts that a shitty B-grade prison movie could invent. For years that fat fuck has willingly and gleefully shit all over my inbox, my servers, and the net in general knowing all the while that not a single goddamned person on earth was interested in what he was selling unless they were certifiably ripe for scamming or being conned. I'll give a tiny amount of begrudging credit to someone who has the brass ones to take a pipe or a gun and rip off a convenience store. They're shit and they should die with a.44 slug in their brainpan, but at least they had the nerve to go out and confront the people they wanted to fuck over. Ralsky sat on his bloated, porcine ass behind the safe glow of his monitors and zillions of layers of firewalls and he stole from us for years. He stole our time, our resources, our bandwidth, our security, our privacy, and our feeling of idealistic hope for the future of the net.
Seriously. Fuck that guy...

Heresy.
All popular music is worthless. If anyone with a clean shirt and a decent haircut has heard of a band, then they're over-processed sellout pop shit for teenagers. It's a scientifically proven fact that the worth of a band is inversely proportional to the number of records they've sold. That's why The Beatles are the worst band in history and quality music peaked when G.G. Allin shoved a Sennheiser up his ass after a baked bean dinner.
And just to add on to your frigging genius comment (me without mod points... grr!), keep in mind that when Han flies in with the star at his back he's also the classic western character of the stealing, smuggling, black-hatted bandit who has always been the self-directed, rootless loner, yet has now found himself in the center of something far out of his control. The local authority has given him a badge which now legitimizes his previously criminal actions, and at the last second he decides to do the right thing, which erases his previous life and gives him a second shot in life as a reluctant hero with a checkered past.
According to an industry mag that I just took a peek at, there were two radical re-stagings of shots from the original production. First was the re-shoot of the "retirement" of Joanna Cassidy where the original shot was so horribly obviously a stunt double. The final moment where she gets hit was reproduced from 25-year-old production design and recreated to make the scene work. Even better was the through-the-window shot of Deckard in the noodle shop. The original cut had horribly de-synched picture and audio, so the restoration team had Harrison Ford's *son* stand in to say the intended lines. The image of his mouth doing the lines was digitally patched over the original footage of his father speaking to repair the scene.
Can't be. If that were the case it wouldn't be called "The Orange Box." It'd be "Half-Life 2008" and we'd still be at Black Mesa, just with bigger textures.
...but in the end I don't think it'll fly. Too bad, as the failure of such an interesting idea will really knock the wind out of their sails. I hope they don't blow it.
Close. A lot of people may work on a script but the final writing credit always goes to the person who is judged to have done the most significant amount of contribution to the film. If multiple writers get credit, then the listings are adjusted to indicate seniority. If two people write collaboratively, the credit will read -

Considering the job he's doing these days, I think any post lacking the words "retarded," "epic fail," "witheringly stupid," "colossally dishonest," or "amoral, greedy cocksuckers" hardly counts as a "dig."
Yes, and we know how well that business model worked out.

Actually, when it comes to discrete logic hardware like you're talking about there is almost none of it present in MAME. There was an attempt to emulate Pong for a while, but that was eventually ripped out from the main build. MAME's stated objective is 100% accuracy to the original hardware and as of yet there's no system of emulating the circuits back then that's accurate enough for the developers. There's some emulation of discrete sound hardware for a few games, but until the devs find something that's up to their standard then there's really very little work being done outside of that. It's the same thing that's keepin laserdisc games out of MAME. The hardware is long-emulated, but there's no acceptable method of reproducing the video yet.

Datamining? I thought it was just another of those stupid online games that encourages you to spam everywhere.

Fine. Then we'll just punish spamming with the clearest, most obvious and appropriate punishment. Walrus sodomy.

The new issue of Maximum PC has a hands-on as well. They tested one in a Asus P5E3 motherboard.

You magnificent bastard...
"America's Zombie Ninja Pirate Army?"
Oh, man. I'd buy two copies of that and throw one of them at Jack Thompson.
Yeah, but it's just a free game. If they added robot then they could probably get money for it.
Never underestimate the selling power of Nazi robots, guys. That's the first thing they taught me in business school.
Wars we are currently fighting are not a game.
Medal of Honor? Bring it.
Wolfenstein, too. I'm not gonna roll over for no Nazi robots...
Yes, and we know how well that business model worked out.
