  1. Re:Stunts on History of "Gods Eye View" 3D Game Perspective? · · Score: 2, Informative
    Stunts (a.k.a. 4-D Sports Driving in Europe) came out in 1990, according to MobyGames. I had a ton of fun with this game. I remember the following camera options during replay. For each one, you could select which of the two cars to follow:
    • Helicopter (follows behind and way above selected car)
    • Track cameras (view transfers from camera to camera along the track, each one following the selected car as it passes by)
    • In car (same view as during gameplay)
    • Choose your angle (similar to the helicopter, but you choose the angle relative to the car. You could even pause and change the angle in the middle of the replay)
  2. No nicknames on Abbreviating Name on Official Documents? · · Score: 1

    This just gives me further ammunition for not using nicknames for myself or my children. Of course, my first name's only three letters, so nicknames aren't an issue for me. 8) My kids, however, have names that are commonly shortened. If they want to use a nickname when they grow up, fine, but until then I'll stick with the names my wife and I actually gave them.
