These types of games are excellent for some casual multplayer gaming and Tetris is no exception.
I hope Nintendo (or at least some 3rd parties) continue(s) to add to the DS lineup these types of games.
I would really like to see a new (not another straight port)Puzzle Bobble/Bust-a-Move for the DS.
However, I really would love a new Magical Drop for the DS. There hasn't been a US version out since the GBC which obviously won't work on the DS. I think the stylus would be the perfect controller for it too. Use it to grab the row of bubbles and pull them down and then use it again to shove them back up.
I ask this because its not like you could just look at the binary and tell that it was the same program as the source.
Are there going to be people who will read the entire source, then sit there and watch it compile, then installed, followed by watching the machines every moment from there until voting is completed?
1. Time is infinate because is repeats (Loops) itself. That's why prophets/psychics/etc can see the future as it already happened and their subconscious remembered it from the last time through.
2. Humans didn't evolve from monkeys, they evolved from rodents. If you think about it many people fit into rodentia categories: That mousey girl at school, that weasel across the street, that rat that sold you out, and that badger who thinks you are his best friend.
Yeah, Valdrax is right. I once lost 30lbs in 3 months just by stopping drinking soda pop and switching to water. I didn't get the munchies as much any more and sugary/salty snacks just didn't do anything for me anymore.
Yeah, that game really brings out the sadist in a lot of people....
They should make an expansion called "Die! Sims Die!" where the Sims try to survive their cruel player. They run away from walls/obsticles that spring up around them. You would have to try and lure them to their deaths or into traps to capture and torture them. Also, I'd like to be able to drop in some monsters in the maze to hunt them down as well. Earn money to buy naster traps and monsters and such for each kill!
Gawd I feel evil...but then the Sims kinda have that effect on many of us... ^_^;
That is what I'd really like to see, a racer with all of those different Nintendo characters.
It could add a ton of variety to the gameplay and race types.
Think about it, if you will, a race track where the players fly in spaceships in a starfox kind of setting.
Perhaps a horse race, riding Epona from the Zelda series?
The only thing that I'd worry about creating such a title would be the possibility of it becoming super cheesy like that "Nicktoons Racer" game I see at movie theaters and Chuck E. Cheese type places.
I have been pretty disappointed with OKCupid. The site is pretty entertaining with the tests and all but otherwise its pretty worthless for matchmaking. I have yet to get a woman to respond to any hello message I send. Also, I only had one woman send me a message out of the blue and it was more of an insult. The gal messaged me to tell me that she felt sorry for me because of where I currently live. She went on about how much she hated the place I currently live. This really pissed me off as I live in the place that I always wanted to move to since I was a kid. Its a good site to kill time but a waste if you want to really find someone special. Oh well, I guess I could always ask out one of the cute gals at work. I just need to find one that's NOT married or with kids.:-/
Myspace sucks! For the first month or so since I signed up, my 'myspace' mailbox keeps getting spam from porn sites acting acting like they are actual women interested in me based on my profile info or my picture when I havent even entered any info about myself in my profile, let alone a picture.
I read the article but something is bothering me about the scenario..
How can you find someone if you have never been to where they are and they have never been to where you are?
I mean, if you or the other player has been through the whole place, then one of you would have the info needed to describe (sketch) the directions to the other person.
If you only know the room you are in and the other person only knows the room he/she's in, how would either of you know what is in between and if there is anything in between you at all?
I believe that the Amiga floppy drive had a variable speed motor to it that helped it squeeze more data into the inner tracks by spinning slower.
And there were HD Floppy drives for Amiga but I think they were all 3rd party. In fact, I owned an external one. It would read any HD floppy but to write to it, you had to run a special patch. Also, with the right drivers, you could read any PC floppy or Mac floppy with it as well.:)

Why didn't you just post the contents of the entry as the story?

Is it such a good idea to 'Slashdot' a MILITARY website?
Lets hope they don't hit back....
If so, then you can call it a food pyramid! :P
If we removed the 2.5% of the DNA that is different and replaced it with the 2.5% that we humans have that they don't, what would we get?
Why don't we just setup a giant electro magnet where the north pole belongs and pull the pole right back into place?
Also, I was wondering if that giant nuke the Russians set off up there a couple decades ago might have effected our poles as well..
Winners were allowed to send an unpleasant, loud blast to their defeated opponents.
:P
Usually Halo night with my friends would involve some sort of chemical warfare among us in the form of victory farts.
But then it could have been the Taco Bell / Burger King / Pizza Hut / etc that we ate between rounds too..
Microsoft knew they'd lose money on each one they sold at their own devised retail price so I have concluded that their business plan goes as follows:
1. Only release 10% of units produced to retail market to create huge artificial demand.
2. Sell Remaining 90% on eBay at insane prices that desperate parents and fanboys would willingly pay.
3. PROFIT!!!
Davey to Galliath: Where the heck are you Galliath?
Galliath: Gee, I dunno Daaaaaveeeeey...

:(
It was much worse in my case, I took a bathroom break and came back to find that my SANDWICH was eaten by a grue.
Finally! Something that can run Windows Vista at a descent speed... :-P
Will any software be able to see that file after it disappears so you can delete it or will it be stuck there, forever hidden?
$400,000,000?
:-P
Geez! That's government spending for ya....
If it was up to me, I'd just pay the $80/yr for a AAA membership and have them tow it..
