  1. Re:!overrated? on Inside View of Epic, Preparing Gears of War 2 · · Score: 1

    I can't in good conscience have a go at you for this, as this is why I stopped playing the prologue in the PC version, and didn't pick it up again until I got a 360. You shouldn't be able to jump over stuff in that huge suit of armour, you have to vault over it by pressing the action button twice and walking towards the rock.

    Its a port, Xbox version was released in 2004, Vista version didn't get released until 2007.

    I've heard it being called the E-PC a fair bit.

  4. Re:Well one good thing about leaks on Fallout 3 Gets Leaked, Goes Gold · · Score: 1

    You mean Half Life 2. Halo 2 is an Xbox game.

  5. Re:Government Incompetence? on British MoD Stunned By Massive Data Loss · · Score: 2, Informative

    The UK Skynet has been around since at least 1969.

    There is an Xbox 360 version of FFXI too.

  9. Re:I have true unlimited on Typical Home Bandwidth Usage? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Does your VoIP provider allow emergency calls? Last I checked, Skype, at least in the UK said you needed a backup phone for emergencies.

    This is probably intentional, they do this whenever an IP address is mentioned in a film or TV show.

  11. Re:Hell has frozen over on The Duke Is Finally Back, For Real · · Score: 1

    My dino-crate version of DUKE3D (1996 DOS edition) runs in full screen fine on XP, infact it ran in full screen first time.

  12. Ugh on The Duke Is Finally Back, For Real · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Take this down and learn to read please editors.

    Don't be so selfish.

  15. Re:What's up with price differences in US vs UK? on A Video Tour of the MSI Wind and Other Netbooks · · Score: 1

    Because they can, I guess. Here is a page with some links: Rip-off Britain.

    A couple of the worst recent examples which stick out in my mind are the PlayStation 3, we paid over twice the $US price for a cut-down version, and Rock Band went for $170/£85 in the USA, $340/£170 over here.

    On subject though, I purchased my EEE-701 for £220/$440 here, which was the same price in the USA at the time.

  16. Re:About time. on Senate Hearing On Laptop Seizures At US Border · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What about MicroSD? I have a 1GB card, and it is smaller than my little fingernail, it could go taped inside the cover of a book, roof of your mouth, in a packet of sweets, anywhere.

  17. Re:image in the post? on Galaxy Zoo Produces a Rare Specimen · · Score: 1

    Though there was an embedded YouTube video not so long ago, to much outrage :P

  18. Under Pressure on Register, Others Call Plagiarism in "Limbo of the Lost" Game · · Score: 1

    Bad example, that isn't sampling, that song was a collaboration between Queen and Bowie, and Mercury and Bowie sing all the way through.

    See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Under_Pressure, and go and listen to it again!

  19. Re:Zoom on Firefox 3 Release On Tuesday · · Score: 1

    Doesn't windows have a chunk of BSD code in it somewhere? :p

  21. Re:Music sharing solution on Virgin Media To Spy On & Threaten Downloaders · · Score: 1

    Yeh, thats encryption, and everyone should be using it. uTorrent has the functionality built in, in the "speed test" menu, and probably other programs have it integrated too.

  22. Re:New Home Page on goosh, the Unofficial Google Shell · · Score: 2, Informative

    When the results come up, type the number of one and hit enter.

  23. Re:Awesome battery life, assuming it meets up to on First Reviews of the MSI Wind Ultra-Portable Laptop · · Score: 1

    They always exaggerate, that will be the battery life when inactive, screen with no backlight and WiFi turned off.

  24. Re:page on First Reviews of the MSI Wind Ultra-Portable Laptop · · Score: 1

    I like them, can't use anything else now. Have to put up with space-bar-ing in web browsers on full-sized keyboards.

  25. Re:Why not web-based desktop? on A Look At the Lightweight Equinox Desktop Environment · · Score: 1

    Most browsers are _really_ bloated. Just think how much RAM is needed to run Firefox with a javascript calculator, or email client, compared to the same thing written in C.
