  1. Re:Some parent's don't like responsibility on How Videogames Became the Bogeyman · · Score: 1

    Too Long/Didn't Read.

  2. Re:Calling all English majors on Peter Jackson on the Future of Storytelling · · Score: 1

    Yeah, because the Final Fantasy series is only on its 14th iteration, Squenix must really love to lose money!

  3. Re:Addictive on Guitar Hero II Coming to 360 · · Score: 1

    exactly how they sold me on it. Was at a LAN tournament to play some battlefield 2, found out at midnight they were having a pick-up tournament of Guitar Hero, and there was no BF2 stuff going on, so I said what the hell and signed up, first match was Symphony of Destruction. The next weekend I had my own copy of the game (I wasn't able to make it to the mall all that week, else I would of had it that Monday).

  4. most gamers on Peter Moore Plugs the Wii60 Again · · Score: 3, Funny

    well seeing how most gamers play with their wee for 10-15 minutes with a few minutes between for hours on end I'm sure they could handle it.

  5. Re:Just as they,,,, on Intel Pledges 80 Core Processor in 5 Years · · Score: 1

    I do seem to recollect a certain P4 that was overclocked to 6GHZ. . . good luck with the liquid nitrogen cooling in a practical home application though.

  6. Re:ok, so the game gives him MORE than promised on The Myth of the 40 Hour Game · · Score: 1

    yeah after about an hour of play I decided to turn around and shoot everytime I picked up an item. 95% of the time I'd kill an imp. (the other 5% i'd have fired too fast and shot through it while it was still spawning in)

  7. Re:try shopping on How Can I Build a Portable "Dead-Man's" Switch? · · Score: 1

    DIY Instructions:
    1. obtain chest spreader, scalpel, and deadman's switch
    2. make 6 inch incision down own chest.
    3. use chest spreader on ribs
    4. Make a one inch incision on heart
    5. insert deadman's switch

    THUMP... beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

  8. Re:strategic paradigm shift... on Scientists Shocked as Arctic Polar Route Revealed · · Score: 1

    that's what they want you to think

  9. Re:Great Idea on First Gaming Fitness Arcade Opens in CA · · Score: 1

    now if only you, if you didn't get away from onyxia, it would melt you for reels. There we have my solution to WoW.

  10. Re:strategic paradigm shift... on Scientists Shocked as Arctic Polar Route Revealed · · Score: 1

    so what you're saying is that Coca-Cola is communist too?

  11. Re:"Price Cut", that sounds nice doesn't it... on Low-End PS3 Comes with HDMI, Cheaper in Japan · · Score: 1

    Holy shit I wish I had mod points right now, that was fucking classic.

  12. Re:Reviews Prevent Me From Buying on Game Reviews Don't Matter, Study Finds · · Score: 1

    Though I hardly ever have time for X-Play, I often get to see electric playground and Reviews on the Run with Tommy and Vic. Personally I find their shows to be unbaised based entirely on their own biases. Basically, for anyone who hasn't seen the shows, the two of them have entirely different preferences and playstyles, Tommy tends to like action and platform games whereas Vic likes strategy and thinking games. So for any given review you find yourself aligning to one or the other, which in my opinion, is vastly superior to reading a review from any magazine. Most importantly though it seems like they review honestly, if they like a game it'll get a score between 7 and 10, if they hate it between 1 and 4.

  13. Re:Wiimote not appropriate on Guitar Hero II Coming to Next-Gen Consoles · · Score: 1

    Dai Gassou! Band Brothers for DS.

    I highly doubt they'd program an entire new game just to lock in with a Wii feature, and lock out sales of this hypothetical new game.

  14. Re:Wii controller on Guitar Hero II Coming to Next-Gen Consoles · · Score: 1

    I have no knowledge of the inner workings of bluetooth but could they not develop a USB bluetooth receiver dongle for the 360 and just make it bluetooth. The same could probably be done for the Wii. Either that or they could just assume the PS3er's will use linux and set it up for themselves. . .

  15. Re:strategic paradigm shift... on Scientists Shocked as Arctic Polar Route Revealed · · Score: 1

    So that's why Comrade Santa is decked out in red, doling the presents to all the good little Communist children. . .

  16. Re:Games recreating historical events on 'Columbine RPG' Creator Discusses the Dawson Shooting · · Score: 2, Funny

    RUN! RUN to the patent office before ROCKSTAR takes it from you! GO GO GO!

  17. Re:The Perils of Today's Console on Xbox 360 adds 1080p Support · · Score: 1

    meh, you're not missing much, that was the one that sucked.

  18. Re:Mirror Neurons on What Came First, the Violence or the Videogame? · · Score: 1

    excellent, I agree with you fully. To be honest, I was just trying to whore another "funny" out of the moderation system.

  19. Re:My Bicycle and Kayak on Massives As Your Third Home · · Score: 1

    Easy. . . it's a two seater.

  20. Re:Mirror Neurons on What Came First, the Violence or the Videogame? · · Score: 1

    Sweet, so you're saying that when I start boxing next month I'll finally start beating my girlfriend and robbing banks? Why oh why didn't I start sooner?

  21. wtf? on What Came First, the Violence or the Videogame? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I'm relatively sure the crusades came before pac-man. . . So my guess is the violence, just a hunch though.

  22. Re:How do you learn robotics? on How Do You Get Into Robotics? · · Score: 1

    okay, I was just getting worried that slashdot changed and left me behind!

  23. Re:Repeal the prohibition of marijuana on Swedish Voters Keelhaul Pirate Party · · Score: 1
    but I can see that it's illigality is stupid, anti-freedom, and causes far more problems than it solves. Don't you think there were those like me in the 1930's advocating the repeal of alchohol prohibition?
    Umm... you sure you've never smoked?
    Okay, low blow, but I do tend to agree with you. There probably were people who didn't drink at the time but still advocated the repeal of alcohol.
  24. Re:ninja pirate on Happy Talk Like A Pirate Day, Me Hearties · · Score: 1

    actually Ninjas don't talk, they just kill.

  25. Re:Why? on Katamari Damacy - A Critique · · Score: 1

    except for the part with jiggling boobies right?
