As amazingly funny as that show is, when he opened that flip phone and it clicked open with the sound of a TOS communicator, it sent me rolling on the floor and hitting my instant-replay button. Never have I been so glad to own a TiVo.
It's a digital cable. It doesn't matter if it's oxygen-free or pure gold or any of that other shit Monster makes consumers think they need. As long as the pulses get from one side of the cable to the other, it doesn't matter if the cable is $15 or $150 for digital.
Using a crack to enable you to play a game which you rightfully purchased and own is against your personal ethical standards? What tenant of your ethics does this violate?
Apple keeps low stocks in their retail outlets and does a good deal of their business online, so I would imagine that the shipped numbers are closer to sold numbers than they are for most other consumer products.
The new hardware COULD play the old games, though. I have a 32x and a Mega CD, and I can still drop a Sonic the Hedgehog or Phantasy Star II cartridge into the top of the console and it plays just like it did when I bought it. In fact, I can remove the 32x and put on a Power Base Converter and play Master System games, as well.
.kkrieger is certainly a feat of software engineering (pretty much anything.theprodukkt puts out is) but procedural synthesis can only go so far. When you get to elements of the game that should be static (such as specific characters) then a static model would probably be more efficient than an algorithm to generate the same.
Of course, I could be (and probably am) wrong.
Easy. Make the amount of coins you need for one credit different at different times during the day. So, at 10 in the morning, it might be 1 Coin = 1 Credit. At 7pm on Friday, it could be 3 Coins = 1 Credit. Sounds easy enough to me.
Like DDR. Dance Dance Revolution almost saved the arcades in my hometown. It was about the only game anyone played (well, that, and Soul Calibur II) and there were ALWAYS people on the machines. Unfortunately, it just wasn't enough in the end.
And one thing KH2 bucks from the recent (past 10 years or so) Square history is that it clocks in at around 22-25 hours. It probably could have been shortened just a bit (going back to each world asking, "You seen Riku?" got annoying after the first two times or so), but it feels like a very natural length to me.
The only problem is that there hasn't been this much divergence in gameplay since FFIV introduced ATB. In fact, I'd say it's more drastic a change. But when you make this drastic a change, don't you think it would be a good idea to see if the market accepts it?

Even better, use the two-finger scrolling on your Powerbook/MacBook trackpad!

I don't know, the system is actually kind of shapely. The power supply, on the other hand...
Fantastic! Now it will cost them even less to buy a system they don't want!

2GB is enough to store almost 7 days of UNCOMPRESSED cd quality digital audio: 2^31 bytes / (44,100 * 2) bytes per second
What do you mean? Uncompressed CD audio is 80 minutes for 700MB. If you mean losslessly compressed...

It is.
I'll say Pac-Man's violent. Have you ever seen what he does to those poor ghosts? Eats 'em and leaves nothing but the eyes. Gruesome stuff, man.
au contraire, if you're using bittorrent, you're distributing at the very same time as receiving! It's a deep, dark hole...
I'm just waiting for the PSP market to crash so I can get one for $100 to play homebrew on.

You mean, while Blackcomb/Vienna is being delayed...

It takes the same amount of processing power to render Super Mario Brothers on a 648x486 NTSC monitor as it does on a 1920x1080 1080p HDTV monitor.
Because this is Slashdot, and truthiness is more important than knowing facts. :D
I disagree, especially with the ending Halo 2 has. It almost commands you to get the sequel.

For our org, our proof is "CDW says so". We don't really have anything else.
The Certificate of Authenticity is just that, it has never been billed as a Certificate of License. Why would anyone assume anything else?

Errors corrected below: Windows is crippled by default. You need the patch here to restore functionality.
