    Or perhaps it's that AMD has superior products all-around--there has never been an AMD analogue to the f00f bug, and they also don't overheat as much, leading to a more reliable product. Plus they're cheaper.

  16. Stargate (Was: Re: Screw gaming) on Neural Interface for Gaming Getting Closer? · · Score: 1

    There was a Stargate SG-1 episode about that. A civilization that built a forcefield to protect itself from the extreme pollution in its planet, and the only major piece of technology you saw them use was the 'Link'(I think that was the name), which connected to a computer with a database of all the information they had. Except the power source for the forcefield was failing, so the forcefield had to slowly shrink, leading to the computer having to kill off people and erase their memories of it using the Link to prevent everyone from dying. When the SG-1 team tried to explain that, the population believed that taking off the Link would kill you(Even though, at the beginning of the episode, one of the council's members took off the Link to show it to SG-1) SG-1 finally convinced them that there was a problem and that they had to leave that planet.

  18. Re:C&C Back in the Day on Command and Conquer 3 Announced · · Score: 1

    To get this aside so I can type the rest of my post: The APCs could only carry 5 people at once--RA2's Flak Tracks could carry 6, but all the APCs previous to that were 5(except possibly TS--don't remember if they could carry 5 or 6). Done with the nitpick, now for the real post:
    I completely agree--I still play Tiberian Sun and RA2 to this day--can't play the first two because Windows 2000 refuses to play them...*checks WINE to see if it plays them* And, since it plays, this post will have to get cut off, as I get out my old C&C and RA1 disks to install and play.

  19. Re:New direction needed.. on Command and Conquer 3 Announced · · Score: 1

    Actually, in the original C&C(called Tiberian Dawn nowadays for disambiguation purposes), if you were playing as Nod and you had multiple airfields, you could order multiple vehicles at once. No other C&C game has that feature though, and DeeZire hasn't tried to add it, so it was probably removed from the codebase after Tiberian Dawn.

    Actually, TibSun starts in 2030. It says so at the beginning of the first briefing for the first GDI TibSun mission.
