1)chickens are living organisms, how are they to survive while being barried underground? if they put the chickens down they would put them down at the same time as the bomb...and the chickens can survive through the winter?? They should try to survive any day before a winter day
It really doesn't have much to do with a lack of creativity. We can look at original games as base games and sequals as secondary games. as there are more and more base games there will be more and more sequals, there are still original games being made, but because many of the original games were so good there is a demand for a sequal.
if there are ten original games a year the next year there will be ten base games and ten more orignal games. the next year there will be 20 base games and still only ten more original, that goes from 50-50 to 66.67-33.33 and the next year when 30 games are bases and 10 are original the ratio is even further appart.
First, there are metal studs on the wheel into which the ball occasionally runs. These pop the ball up a little bit and cause it to run down to the numbers more quickly.
if this is such a factor, then the computer would definately not work at predicting the resting spot of the ball without the "studs" programmed in too, the article said nothing about studs programmed in. The Professor said that a good guess can be made from the velocity of the wheel the mass and speed of the ball. It is possible that a dealer could "aim" the ball where he wants it.
When I read this the first thing I thought of was the final fantasy series. Although, they really are not sequals the idea is still there. Take an older game that people liked, change the story, modify the battle system and put it on shelfs. It works and the games are still fun. The fact that more sequals are being made is natural because the original games of yesterday are sequal games of today. If an original game comes out today and is a huge hit, most likely there will be a sequal tomorrow. No need to worry!
The age of the console is comming. While PC's own the MMORPG catagory right now, the console has many advantages. You are garenteed that your game will work on your machine, Communication through the headset can compensate for not having a keyboard, consoles are cheaper than computers, MMORPG dont take up Massive Memory Ammounts when on a console.
Didn'd/. have an arguement like this going the other day?
The key problem with PC is with it's setup and startup, else PCs would win the race hands down
..I disagree, set up on a pc is a one time event, after the game is installed the first time, setting it up is as fast as a console. ..While start-up takes a good minute or two, a gamming session above 30 minutes and those two boot up minutes are soon forgotten.
I think that that computer gamming will pick up as laptop computers get faster and have more compacity. As for why I believe that consoles are winning right now, it is becasue of the huge variety available. A quick trip up to blockbuster and you have a new game for the week. That and the fact that a game can't "out-do" your machine place consoles running a lap up.
I think I'm goona make a web page right now that says multiple negative things about me and then search for it on google. When it comes up as a result I will follow suit and make my fortune! Isn't America great?
This guy is ridiculous he needs to grow up and swallow his pride!

who knew that dial up internet was a form of virus protection? I dont feel so bad anymore!

Utter, utter bullshit.
