You only have your gear and attributes exposed in WOW. Warcraft3 replays had real complaints. People could totally steal your build order and the creep order you did. They could essentially copy your game play by watching a replay and be almost as formidable as you. This made all the effective builds known, and there was very little creativity in that RTS.
Developer Micro Forte has been working on the game for some seven years now, and they've now publicly announced it just won't happen. Instead, they're not working on a spy-themed title.
I'm also not making a FPS based in the Tokien world.
Imagine a 10mx10m room that has cameras on many angles. You wear different colored gear on your head, upper arms, lower arms, chest, upper legs, lower legs, and your sword. You wear a light VR helmet. Inside the room spawns monsters that you have to fight off with your sword, while the cameras track where you are.
To me, the arcade died off because home technology caught up. These VR rooms will be the resurgence of the arcade when they become a reality.
I'd call you daft if you built a castle in a swamp, but you're right that there is a grain of truth in not building your house on sand. It's so dumb to build your house on sand that Jesus even spoke a parable about it for people who listen to his words, but don't actually put them into action.
To me, fantasy is more than just roleplay. I actually think of the people who may have engaged in the behavior in reality, and judge for myself if it's good or bad fantasy. For example the suicidal robot is supposed to be a joke to most, and we've had a suicidal robot before the robotic arm: Bender. When I look analyze the fantasy, they're making a joke about going suicidal with the arm in a legitamate manner because he lost his job. To me the commercial is more sad than funny because in the past there have been many people who've killed themselves over the loss of a job. People who have lost a family member to suicide gets to relive it every time they watch this commercial.
Another example is Grand Theft Auto. Before I became a Christian and analyzed things to their core, I used to lay waste everything that walks or drives in Vice City. Now that I've moved away from anything that has 'bad fantasy', I don't play GTA anymore. The way I look at it is this,"There are real people who die from being run over by a car every year, and its a tradjedy. Why should I be eliciting morbid excitement over running people over. If I knew someone who was run over by a car, I certainly wouldn't be playing this game with the intent to commit vehicular homicide."
Finally I don't see the problem with 2 year olds driving in a commercial. When I was a kid, I always fantasized about driving like most kids. This commercial isn't going to add to the instinctual desire to drive. I'm just chiming in with my post because I have two unique views on wicked fantasy: A longer look at this post entitled: Wicked Fantasies
Let the taxes ride for a year or three. Move the buisness out of the USA, and raise ebay fees. All you need to do is state that the fee raise is less than you'd have lost for taxes, and everyone wins, except for the US government.
Welcome to first grade! Here's the laptop you'll use for the next 6 years, it will save the school money on books. Don't drop it, or get paste stuck in the keys, or you automatically fail.
I wouldn't worry about them getting the Bomb anytime soon, but making tools for various purposes has been observered.
But typing Shakesphere is more likely with our fancy word processing software. Then again, who do you think would type Shakesphere first, a room full of a million monkeys with word processors, or a room full of a million Shakesphere trained parrots who are using Vista speech recognition?
In the article it says the reviewers will act like police, trying to find infractions in the game's ESRB rating. If there is an infraction, a... one meellion dollar fine will be attached and the ratings will change. I can see this program actually working out: less from playing, and more from reading review sites for extreme bits in a game.
If the government thinks this is such a great thing, expect it to be standard in one of the next few OSes. Of course it will not be known it even exists. Tin foil hat time?
Starcraft is based on Starship Troopers, and everyone knows reality likes to emulate fiction. The asteroid itself won't harm us as much as the alien space insects that come out.

Ha ha. You just posted on Slashdot proving you're clueless.

I have been experiencing true euphoria most of the day today. I even wrote a post on it just 15 minutes or so before this article came up.

Yah, Redmond isn't the place to be with a CS degree, you want to be in gaming specifically Electronic Arts.

Do you hate true evil and injustice with a passion
Just wrote this one up last night.
Now I can order Linux, and install windows 98 to stick it to the man.

"Hello, Game master. I can't zone out of the starter area, and the mobs are mocking me."
Heading that sales army is 42-year-old Styler. He's multilevel marketing to track down people faster to kill them off for their super powers.
Oh sorry, I thought we were talking about the PS3.
Did he legitamately say that stuff, or is it just made up stuff about him? If he really said it, why should it not go on his permanent record?

A real hacker wouldn't have participated, but let's not get into a "definition of hacker" debate..
You're right because real hackers are banned from the internet. You're not a real hacker til you get charged as one.
Maybe I misread constant 1G acceleration. The 1G could be facing in a direction that people stand on.
Since you've worked no where, no one will hire you for lack of experience. I laugh at jokes even when they're at my expense.

I heard Pamela Jones was last seen with the Quantum Computer.
In case of a bandwith crisis, Microsoft will have a 5 gb automatic update patch ready.
