Not sure what you meant by do yourself a favor and buy the nes but that gave me an idea.
why doesnt nintendo rerelease the NES price it $50 or less and watch the things fly off the shelves. esp. around christmas. Surely they could be made cheap very easily with todays technology and components. Make it look just like the original but remove the blinkies problem
..the christmas market has already been hit by nintendo DS. Kids are gonna buy what their friends have adn their friends have the DS. Especially when it's as cool as the DS. PSP is gona have some serious high quality features (divx mp3 etc.) if they want to pull this off. But if the PSP costs more you can hang it up.

whoopdeedoo the n gage hasnt done well since it was released.
every page had at least one thin that was politically motivated. "video games make kids fat" " Legislators Move to Restrict Sales of Mature Games--And Fail" "Video Games--The New Terrorist Device of Choice" etc. I think someone had an axe to grind
I've learned all kinds of things about where cities were in ancient times buildings in the cities and units relatives strengths when they were used in battle by playing Rome: Total War.
I agree perfect dark rocked but you could tell it was straining the limits of the 64.
I even found a way to make the framerate slowdown with goldeneye. In the second level with the lab once you get to the room with all of the gas canisters at the end talk to trevelyn for a second then when the baddies start coming in run to the exit door.
But instead of exiting run up the stairs and go through the door closing it behind you as you get to the top turn so you can see whats going on with trvelyn and just start shooting the baddies they wont come through the door or shoot back. as more and more of them make it to the ledge you'll see a massive slowdown in the system performance.
Some of the posts seem to imply that other leader of the other fork is somehow mad about the poster using code from the other fork. Has this person whined about it, or are we just assuming this?
From TFSummary)
"Yesterday, I was contacted by the leader of the spinoff project who told me that he's quiet angry at us for doing that and that it's considered unethical and rude to copy code from the spinoff."
Star Wars, starship troopers and others also used space navy references. From the ranks to the names of their ships "dreadnaughts, picket ships, battle cruisers and the like.
Though i'm not sure how the Sky Marshal in Starship Troopers plays into it.
Your body produces millions of sperm a day. Even if the amount of sperm you produce today is lowered by using a laptop tomorrow (assuming you dont use the laptop then) your sperm production will be back up.
If they advertise that hey this costs a few bucks more but you can buy this now and play it on your DVD player and play it in the net generation players without having to repurchase everythings.
I agree if the band can get their music heard they can make a decent living from concert tickets and cd sales at concerts, heck if the band knows how to work a program like Adobe audition >$200, have an audio card >$100 that will connect to their mixer, they can make an album that sounds pretty darn good.
So for less than $300 they can have a studio good enough to make an album to get them on tour.
If they dont know how to record and edit audio got to the local college/university and find a mass media major looking to make some extra money.
IIRC the standard is to accept designs and proposals from companies and then decide who gets the contract without any actual work being done on an actual craft that works.
I know thats how the contract for the new space shuttle was awarded.
This could turn out to be a good thing, Developer handles all of the R&D costs doesnt get a dime unless work is satisfactorily completed and cant go over budget.
only down side I see is it could also scare off buisnesses not willing to take the risk of spending all that money and then not getting the contract.

I have found that they always accept "no" for an answer. However, you could always ask them back - "You give me your number first."
Hmm might try that next time I get the hot chick at Best Buy

I believe that the implication is that with 50 noses their sense of smell is more advanced
Certainly if it _was_ GTA:SA, then the story's a fake because I understand it wasn't available back in March.
Assuming the kids didnt get it off bit torrent
Actually IIRC In texas it's illegal to shoot someone in the back

Then they could really be on to something.
