  1. Re:Wrong era, wrong comparison on Revisiting Sly Cooper · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Yet Mario 64 can, and it resorted to a "Boswer kidnapped the princess" plot.

    With the added bonus of cake!

  2. Re:Buffy? on Top 50 Science Fiction TV Shows · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Did you miss Xena? I didn't read the entire list.

    Though in their defense, Xena had at least one episode about cloning in modern times. On a similar note, Buffy had the occasional episode that could qualify equally well as science fiction(Robot buffy, the Internet using robot in season 1, etc). Neither were.

    Physically and morally raising a child are two very different things. Society is responsible as a whole for the physical well being of a child(as shown by social services taking away neglected children etc) If we enforce such things, I'd like to see mandatory religion(I don't care which one) enforced. I don't trust parents to morally raise their child. I'm not too sure why porn is illegal until 18 on that note however.

    They had more time to do it and were sitting on their asses until it became a serious issue, much like the video games industry.

    The ESRB and such have begun to fix it, but it takes time. There is however NO excuse for the government to selectivly enforce it. They should either go after everyone or no one. If they're doing such a good job self regulating, then they won't be in trouble, now will they? And, has been stated on *many* occasions by people, children sream and cry, even if you carefully explain the parent what they're buying, half the time they'll just get annoyed at you and buy it anyway.

    I really don't think this would do anything except make video game stores suffer. The dumbass parents will still be dumbass parents, except now they'll have to personally buy the game instead of giving little johnny $50 to do it himself.(What parent does that!?)

  5. Re:How much?! on Voice Actors Vote on VG Strike · · Score: 1

    A building, a few dozen(up to 100-200 people, at various points during development on the biggest games), computers, electricity. Oh and licence, that can cost them a depressingly large amount. It adds up fast, as currently they're working for a year or two.(more in some cases, HL2 for example) Why do movies cost a 100 million? All they do is make a picture that moves!

  6. Re: creator of the C++ programming language on C++ Creator Confident About Its Future · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It went from a non object oriented language to an object oriented one, seems like creating to me.

    (though yes, you can of course use OO in C, it just sucks)

  7. Re:As long as it's on... on Our Ratings, Ourselves · · Score: 1

    As I doubt there is more than one chain of them(or another place that happens to use the name) They're definetly a fairly big chain where I live in texas.(W, orange/white striped roof?)
