  1. The problem is centralization. on A New Replacement for TV Tome · · Score: 1

    I ran the main Sealab 2021 fansite for years, which I recently shut down due to a number of factors. Looking at TVIV, it seems like it may be a good place for me to dump much of my old content, without having to sell out to something commercial and turn all the fan community's work that went into my ad-free fansite into just another lump of data to increase CNet shareholder value. Additionally, seperate fansites usually lack interconnectivity. Knowing that someone from my show is doing a guest spot on yours is a lot more difficult without either constantly referencing the person's IMDB page or an insane amount of crosslinking between sites. Fan sites can be the best, but they can lack permanancy.

  2. Re:Sure they are... on Hayabusa Probe Arrives at Destination · · Score: 1

    Funny you should mention that, as the next stage in the probe's program is to give the asteroid a good old-fashioned kancho.

  3. Re:crap movie? on First UMD Movie/Game Combo · · Score: 1

    I thought about going to see it, but I was sick that day.

  4. Re:Mr Miyagi on Singapore Bloggers Charged Under Sedition Act · · Score: 1

    That site seems to be down now. I wonder why.

  5. Re:ESRB trying to ban all modding? on ESRB Demands Hidden Content Review · · Score: 1

    Thing is, if you're obsessive enough and skilled enough, any game ever created is moddable.

  6. Hot tip for contestants.. on Playing all that Bejeweled Pays Off · · Score: 1

    If you get the whistle, it opens the warp!

  7. Re:Seaman on Satisfying Sequels · · Score: 1

    I hope so. Someone needs to go ask him if he's up for a second helping of Seaman.

  8. Looks good. on Company to Settle and Mine Mars · · Score: 2, Funny

    This is one of the better ideas for a startup company I've heard, but then again I've spent the past 15 years or so on the Internet.

  9. Obligitory PA rerun on Don Mattrick leaves EA · · Score: 1
  10. Re:Red vs. Blue team in on charity too on Katrina Hits the Gaming World · · Score: 1

    It's actually Bungie, the company behind Halo, that's selling a specially designed shirt for charity. The RvB guys just linked to it, along with the standard lineup of charities. Get the shirt here, read Bungie's news post about it here.

  11. Re:Could be worse on Exploiting Gaming Icons For Profit · · Score: 1

    Nah, but there have been reports of Luigi walking the streets in a miniskirt at night, whistling at sailors, reeking of cheap booze and plumber's putty.

  12. Re:Bittorrent Download on Public Domain from Outer Space · · Score: 1

    Nice!! Thanks for doing it.

  13. Irony doesn't just mean "sort of like iron" on Microsoft Enters MMOG Deal with Marvel Comics · · Score: 3, Funny

    Assuming Marvel's character creation engine turns out worth a damn, will the COH folks be able to sue Marvel over the ability to creat Marvel-style copies of the copyrighted COH characters?

  14. Obligatory PA rerun on EA's Busy Week · · Score: 1
  15. I don't get it.. on Total Annihilation Sequel Preview · · Score: 1

    How can you make a sequel to a "Total Annihilation?" What's the title.. "Still Annihilated?"

  16. Hear hear! on The Making of Maniac Mansion · · Score: 1

    Count Floyd deserved hella better. Great game, but the TV show was an insu;t to anyone with eyes and/or ears.

  17. Heh.. on Create New Atari 2600 Games With BASIC · · Score: 1

    Just like Qbasic took all the fun out of coding for the PC. Now if only I could get online deathmatch to work in GORILLA.BAS...

  18. Wrong puppets!!! on Statler And Waldorf From the Balcony · · Score: 1

    If I'm going to watch puppets make fun of movies, it'd be the seasoned professionals who are actually funny and aren't owned by Disney.

  19. Re:Tycho Brahe? on Huge NES Collection PAX Omegathon Prize · · Score: 1

    I find what you have to say about referring to the guy from "Penny Arcade" posting under a fictitious name interesting, Doctor Tesla. (Big fan of your coils, btw.)

  20. Re:What I'm doing. on Building the WallTop · · Score: 1

    That's a really cool idea! I look forward to seeing it.

  21. Re:Bloodhound Gang on Video Game Mixlist · · Score: 2, Funny

    And a skit involving Pac-Man trying to get kids to do drugs with him, bless their hearts.

  22. No more CG Lawrence Fishburne....? on Morpheus is Dead · · Score: 1

    Actually, due to a power surge, Morpheus was simply split into his two component parts. Zion will now be led by Cowboy Curtis and Ike Turner.

  23. Re:Sabotage on Voice Actors Protest at E3 · · Score: 1

    Oddly, it's the Winnie the Pooh game that makes me want to shoot up my city.

  24. Re:Units! on Game Boy Micro Announced · · Score: 1

    Dunno, but it's about 16.7 square attoparsecs.

  25. Check out Miyamoto! on The Making of Super Mario Bros. 3 · · Score: 1

    Wacky seeing how young this guy was.
