    How about the fact that M&M's missed out on a good chunk of money?

    I just tried to do what you said and the crash immediately crashes as soon as I start it. =/

    You make me want to try and install my old Creatures 1 game, but I know it won't work on XP... I am a sad, sad man.

    Isn't everything else just a convoluted metaphor for life?

    The Sims Online was just was basically just IRC with pictures. I decided I didn't want to pay money to talk to people and make pizza for hours on end.

    The idea was that you would have no direct control over them, but you'd indirectly control their lives via furniture placement, architecture, and the like Feng Shui anyone?

  7. Re:And what kinda games do you like? on Sims 2 Goes Gold · · Score: 1

    Are you saying that people keep playing the Sims because they already suck at what the game is simulating and want to get better at it?

    Because the whole point of dystopian literature is to point out something wrong with society at the time. Technically it is being written in the present. It's written in the future to show if we continue along the path examined in the book that is what can [will] happen.

    I'm reading her books only because a peer of mine worships her for some unknown reason. After I read her books then I intelligently call him a jackass ;)

    Apparently the book I just started reading, We The Living by Ayn Rand was really looked down upon during it's time. In fact it took Rand years to just find a publisher that was willing to publish it (everyone else said it was too anti communist)

  13. Re:A new inroad on Game Biz Squeezing Revenue From On-Demand Digital Subscriptions · · Score: 1

    The Phantom. Ha. If similar things such as these game on demand programs continue I think the Phantom will have no chance. I mean computers are cheap now so most people can afford them. Computers tend to be a family thing (as they end up in family rooms, they're basically the next tv, etc.) Consoles are cheap and very user friendly but for the type of gaming (sit and play for a bit) the Phantom may not fair quite as well. At least I think so.
