  1. What's your reaction to something like.. this? on Ask mc chris · · Score: 0

    Daikatana.

  2. Re:Ringtones are one of the dumbest things to pay on Short History of Cellphone Ringtones · · Score: 0, Troll

    That's why I have the dungeon theme from Super Mario Brothers 3 and you have Fuga. Cheapass.

  3. Not the first time games have been used for this. on Surgeons Use Gaming to Improve Skills · · Score: 1

    ... Oh, come on, you all know the Operation commercial theme song!

  4. Ow, my ears. on Babylon 5 Theatrical Movie Falls Through · · Score: 2, Funny

    No wonder I heard a bunch of nerds screaming in unison earlier in the IT division at college.. Ears are still ringing.

  5. Re:UReal engine looks sweet on New Technologies to be Revealed at GDC 2005 · · Score: 1

    More like dual Intel Xeon processors, 1 to 16 GB of RAM, and a $600 video card, but you're close.

  6. I wonder if I can go to GDC on New Technologies to be Revealed at GDC 2005 · · Score: 2, Funny

    Girlfriend used to work for a game company and had access to it. That woman better find her ID card and claim me to be an assistant. Last year she didn't even go because her co-workers said there'd be nothing there. What'd she miss? THE GOD DAMN PSP. Now to find my ninja cape.

  7. Re:I have a hard time trusting people on Was the Lokitorrent Suit a Hoax? · · Score: 1

    What? Christ man, who am I supposed to believe? It's like there's a large case against both sides on this. Which side is lying MORE, however?

  8. Re:I was going to say Nintendo is full of it, on Nintendo Warns MMO Company Over Trademark Issues · · Score: 1

    The only way they can get away with this is if they change it or give it away for free under the name "Wind Waker: Pirate mod! ARRRRR!"

  9. Re:Class-action lawsuit, anyone? on Was the Lokitorrent Suit a Hoax? · · Score: 1

    It doesn't matter. If the MPAA had a press release, it must be 100% accurate and entirely true!

  10. I have a hard time trusting people on Was the Lokitorrent Suit a Hoax? · · Score: 1

    That go around sticking "You can click but you can't hide" images on sites. I know that's authentic, but there's a chance the MPAA most likely feels it can post false articles as well. It's all about scare tactics for them. They should figure, "Why not?"

  11. Slashdot hasn't the time to rationalize! on Was the Lokitorrent Suit a Hoax? · · Score: 1

    We must shoot first and ask questions later!

  12. Re:Class-action lawsuit, anyone? on Was the Lokitorrent Suit a Hoax? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Oh crap, I hope I didn't offend that Macromedia Flash artist I donated to then when I said that was all I could afford..

  13. Class-action lawsuit, anyone? on Was the Lokitorrent Suit a Hoax? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    If I recall correctly, wasn't there a Paypal donate button? Fairly sure they can find out each and every person that donated to that POS. Glad I didn't give him my $0.02.

  14. My cell phone may have problems in some cities on Using Air to Recharge Your Cell Phone · · Score: 1

    Birmingham's dirty air would probably fry my cell inside of 40 seconds.

  15. Who will release the game this summer? on Ubisoft Developing Next America's Army Game · · Score: 1

    Will we have the logo of Ubisoft, or their soon-to-be possible overlords, Electronic Arts?

  16. Re:I don't see much of an improvement. on Pentium 4 6XX Sequence and New EE P4s Launched · · Score: 1, Interesting

    "If you spend a significant amount of time waiting for that sort of thing to complete then it could well be worth it, especially if you're rendering more complex models." If I did that, I'd be better off with an Intel Xeon processor or two, not this.

  17. I don't see much of an improvement. on Pentium 4 6XX Sequence and New EE P4s Launched · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Especially in encoding. Is it really worth the extra several hundred to shave 6-10 seconds off of rendering a model or enconding an MP3?

  18. To clear up some possible confusion. on Cory Doctorow's 'I, Robot' Posted · · Score: 2, Informative
    The original title for the book was to be "Mind and Iron." Martin Greenberg, however, rejected that title and suggested the book be called "I, Robot." Asimov cringed at this idea because in 1938 Eando Binder wrote a short story called "I, Robot," and felt that he was stealing from another author. Mr. Greenberg "colorfully" dismissed this ill placed loyalty and the title was changed. Some years later there was a televison play of Binder's robot story and several fans wrote Asimov about some joker who stole his title. Asimov, being a man of honor, wrote back to each of them explaining the situation. Postage was a lot cheaper back then.
    I, Robot
  19. DARPA and AI? Video games have told the future. on DARPA Contracts For AI Technology · · Score: 0

    Won't be long before we have Metal Gears swarming New York City.

  20. Video game sports is dead. on Take Two Lands Exclusive MLB Deal · · Score: 0

    For at least 7 to 15 years, anyway. It's annoying that the companies with the games of lesser quality are the ones coming out on top with the licenses, considering IMO ESPN NFL> Madden MVP Baseball > ESPN MLB I would hang myself (or just hang others. More fun that way) if 989 had bought the rights.

  21. My God on A Countdown To Global Catastrophe? · · Score: 0

    Highlander 2 is the prophet movie of the ages.

  22. Re:Pentium M is not 64 bit on Centrino Mobile Equals Desktop Pentium 4 in Speed · · Score: 0

    If I remember right, Windows' newest operating system soon to come out, Longhorn, will require a 64-bit CPU.

  23. Re:My thoughts by John Madden. on ESPN And Electronic Arts Sign 15-Year Deal · · Score: 0

    9. Tennis commentator: "One of the reasons Andy is playing so well is that, before the final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them... I bet that got his raquet going.

  24. WARNING: Abbreviations may cause infertility. on OpenBSD Activism Shows Drivers Can Be Freed · · Score: -1, Troll

    So the TI's WNBU in BSD under the GPL BSD OSS HIJKLMNOP? TTYL I'm fuckin' confused LOL BBL KTHXBAI.
