  1. Re:Aliens don't belong in an Indiana Jones movie on Max Payne 3 Announced For Next Winter · · Score: 1

    Yeah I don't think we should be mixing michael jackson's kiddie fiddling and david bowie's step-away-from-watchmen spandex dong.

  2. Re:Stop listing time periods based on seasons! ARG on Max Payne 3 Announced For Next Winter · · Score: 1

    Then you're in the north hemisphere of the planet. Enjoy not having your seasons backwards and don't worry you aren't missing out on water spinning the other direction.

    Shame he isn't in sweden, then he could send the american people a copy of a MAP.

    I'm suddenly left with the image of thousands of people storming germany with light guns shouting PEW PEW.

    Since when has this had anything to do with facts and logic? Listening to these guys talk about games sounds almost like they're word for word quoting the 40s and just scribbling out racial references for digital ones.

  6. Re:$0.16/GB is a pretty good price on Sony Charges Publishers For DLC Bandwidth Usage · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You forgot that they've already admitted that they make their entire system difficult and painful to use on purpose believing that it will extend it's life by making it more difficult to use it's full potential quickly.

  7. Re:Sarcastic or not? on How $1,500 Headphones Are Made · · Score: 1

    No that's "real" volume. "Fun" volume is loud enough for me to hear the footsteps but quiet enough that the loudest sound in the game isn't uncomfortable to hear.

    You wake up?

  9. Re:Sarcastic or not? on How $1,500 Headphones Are Made · · Score: 1

    I already have a psychotic ex with an underage boyfriend who's probably a roid nut and can lift me and her with one arm each like we weigh nothing.

  10. Re:Sarcastic or not? on How $1,500 Headphones Are Made · · Score: 5, Funny

    They are however excellent when it comes to playing games at a fun volume and getting decent positional audio.

    And flattening my ears. And yanking things off my desk.

    Unless you're looking for labratory levels of precision imho there's no point once you're above the HD-555 range.

  12. Re:I'm not overly concerned on Court Demands Private Facebook Data · · Score: 1

    This is pretty much what I thought. A friends-only posting somewhere is no more inherently private than a conversation had between friends without anyone else present.

    I don't quite get the link, sbarro is expensive yes but at least all the places I've eaten it's MUCH better than the McPizzaplaces.

  15. Re:Missiles reach SPACE you know. on US Pentagon Plans For a Spy Blimp · · Score: 1

    Didn't some dude down the page calculate that it'd visually be about the size of the moon?

  16. Re:Missiles reach SPACE you know. on US Pentagon Plans For a Spy Blimp · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I would think the thing in the sky about the size of the goddamn MOON would be a bigger giveaway that something's in your airspace than the radar signature.

  17. Re:20 percent? try 20 times on New Graphics Firm Promises Real-Time Ray Tracing · · Score: 1

    I was really tired and read that last line as getting 20 FRAMES extra.

  18. Re:20 percent? try 20 times on New Graphics Firm Promises Real-Time Ray Tracing · · Score: 1

    So if a quadcore with current gpu hardware runs at something around 16fps or so that would put us at 35fps, right about the absolute minimum of playability.

    My mother went big on feng shui and crystals. Then she reorganized our living room so that we had a lot more usable space and it looked a lot better and stuck a bunch of pretty crystals on top of the shelves where we used to tend to pile things up.

    Part of scientific literacy is knowing how to pull the good ideas out of the sea of Woo Woo. Subluxations? No. Massage? Hell yes.

  21. Re:And it's a statistics game... on US Adults Fail Basic Science Literacy · · Score: 1

    The problem is more that you in particular have displayed an astounding degree of incompetence in 3 very important ways:

    1. Summaries and headlines you rubber stamp tend to be sensationalist and often wildly inaccurate once TFA is read

    2. Memory of a goldfish.

    3. Not news, not for nerds, and doesn't matter.

    Do us all favor and step down or take on some other responsibilities, you just don't seem to have the responsibility necessary to do this particular job. This isn't [FOX|CNN|NBC], wildly inaccurate sensationalist headlines and summaries just piss us off even if we AGREE with the wildly inaccurate sensationalism.

    So yeah... it's not so much that we hate YOU, we just think you're incapable of doing this job with any degree of competence beyond actually getting something posted on the front page.
