  1. Re:No, this is typical for virtually anyone sellin on What The Banned iPhone Ad Should Really Look Like · · Score: 1

    Uh... I think he was referring to the fact that your reply started with "Uh" in the quote box, thus doing the very thing that you advised against.

    And you're welcome.

  2. Re:Everquest 3? on Future Sony MMOs Will Be On Consoles · · Score: 1

    2. There's no reason an MMO needs to revolve around communication or raids.

    MMOs absolutely need to revolve around communication. What's the point of playing with a massive number of people if you aren't interacting with them? Teamwork is the core of an MMO, and to work together effectively, you need to be able to coordinate with each other.

  3. Re:What do you get with knighthood? on Stephen Hawking Turned Down Knighthood · · Score: 1

    He's also in the new Futurama movie, Beast with a Billion Backs. Too bad that it's about as good as their last movie.

  4. A fresh start. on Next Prince of Persia Game Promises Fresh Start · · Score: 1

    You can't have a fresh start without a Fresh Prince.

  5. Re:I see the lawsuit now on Frog Resembles X-Men's Wolverine · · Score: 2, Funny

    Nature files for bankruptcy.

  6. Grand Theft Scratchy? on GTA Parody Elements Pulled From Simpsons Game · · Score: 1

    I'm glad they pulled this section of the game. With a name like "Grand Theft Scratchy", how good could it be? If it were up to me, I would've called it "Grand Theft Otto".

  7. Presidential Quote on Airlines Have to Ask Permission to Fly 72 Hours Early · · Score: 1

    When asked to comment on this new policy, the President had this to say "Get off my planes."

  8. Re:My opinion on Orange Box Turns Gold · · Score: 1

    I was lead to believe that Team Fortress 2 was to be the multi-player part of Half-life: Episode 2, which will be available for $29.99 from Steam. I don't think, however, that you will be able to buy Team Fortress 2 or Episode 2 separate from the Orange Box in a physical store.

  9. Re:scofflaws on The Pirate Bay About To Relaunch Suprnova.org · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Yeah, we were founded by scoffing at unjust, unfair and immoral laws. The idea that you shouldn't steal copyrighted work doesn't quite seem to fit in those catagories...
    It isn't stealing copyrighted work, it's copying copyrighted work. And the penalties for breaking such a law are unjust, unfair, and immoral.
  10. Re:Poor Squirrels on High-Tech Squirrels Trained to Conduct Espionage · · Score: 1

    At least they didn't go through with it like the Russians did with their Anti-Tank Dogs. Dogs that were trained to search for food underneath tanks, starved, equiped with a bomb on their back that went off when they crawled under something, then let loose on the battlefield. The only problem was that the dogs were trained on soviet tanks, so they were just as likely,if not more so, to head straight for a friendly target instead of the enemy.

  11. Re:This is Madness - eradicate all copyright! on RIAA Forces YouTube to Remove Free Guitar Lessons · · Score: 1
    Have you even read Harry Potter? It's drivel.
    It's a book intended for children, and it gets them reading! That's the important thing.
  12. Re:perhaps take-two should.. on Take Two Shelves Manhunt 2 · · Score: 1

    And how would they do that? It's not like they have a choice. None of the consoles that they developed the game for will grant them a license to release it on their system because it is rated Adults Only. Which makes wonder what kind of idiots they have working at their company. How would a project, that would clearly earn a rating of AO, be green lighted when they know that such games cannot be released on the systems they created it for?

  13. Re:Why? on Diablo Movie Now in the Works? · · Score: 4, Funny
    Sure they generate a few bucks...


    I think you just stumbled upon the secret motivation behind these mysterious thing we have called "companies".
  14. Re:Personally on Fallout 3 Fundamentals Released via Game Informer · · Score: 1

    Really? Most modern Real-time Strategy games use a 3D, movable camera. You want me to name some? Homeworld, Ground Control II, Warhammer: Mark of Chaos, Rome: Total War, I can go on.

  15. Re:No what? on Battlestar Galactica's End Officially After Season 4 · · Score: 1

    As long as that successor doesn't use stupid, invented words like "FRACK" to mimic vulgar language, I'm hope so, too.

    I'm going to have to ask you to kindly shut the frell up.

  16. Re:Blizzard entering secondary market! on Blizard Sues Virtual Gold Seller · · Score: 1

    Except the terms of the EULA only apply to the end-user and not to Blizzard themselves.

  17. Re:I don't get it on CG Television Clone Wars Trailer Released · · Score: 1

    Boring enough that we had three movies based on his childhood.

    The coolest thing in Star Wars is the light saber. When did the most light saber action take place? During the clone war when the Jedi lead squads of clones into battle. For an animated action show, this is the best time to set it in.

  18. Why is Lucas wasting our time? on CG Television Clone Wars Trailer Released · · Score: 3, Funny

    Why is George Lucas bothering to remake the Clone Wars shorts when he knows that everyone really wants prequels to the Ewok Adventure series? I want to see what Wilfred Brimley's character, from Ewoks: Battle for Endor, was like when he was a kid.

  19. Re:We asked on User Created Content is Key for New Games · · Score: 1

    If only I could mod you "+1, Sad but true."

  20. Re:Only eggheads would look for Vulcan... on Mission Could Seek Out Spock's Home Planet · · Score: 1

    Except I'd hate to be the guy looking through the telescope that spots the Borg cube and notices them looking back at us. First of all, it would be awkward that they caught us staring at them, and second of all, they'd have to come assimilate us after that.

  21. Re:Not looking forward to that letter on Earth Bacteria May Hitch A Ride To The Stars · · Score: 2, Funny

    You're right, he should have said "space dollars."

  22. Re:Good on BioWare Goes Episodic With New Games · · Score: 1

    Are you saying that you won't live long enough to invest 60 hours into a game? What's stopping you from playing it a little bit at a time? How is spending 60 hours in one game different from spending 60 hours spread out over three games? It shouldn't matter as long as you're having fun.

  23. Re:Fucking Philistines! on Word of the Year - "Truthiness" · · Score: 2, Informative

    ... and that's the word.

  24. Concentration Camp Tycoon on Taking Bully Seriously? · · Score: 1

    I want someone to make a Concentration Camp game where you play the Nazis and see if it causes a ruckes near as big as a game about schoolyard bullies.

  25. Re:marketing on Game Reviews Don't Matter, Study Finds · · Score: 1

    Most stores tend to stock many copies of the most hyped titles while only ordering one(if you're lucky) copy of the games that don't have tv and magazine ads. It seems every time I go to EB Games in search of something I read a killer review of from a small company, I leave with nothing.
