  1. Re:WoW-based machinima *dev* resources? on Huge World of Warcraft Machinima Contest · · Score: 1

    Short answer is no, all the movies you'll find are recorded gameplay, wich is another beauty of it if you know the game a bit, like getting dubbing right can reveal quite hard, and your camera is always centered on a character.

  2. Re:Confusion on Jack Thompson Under Investigation · · Score: 1

    Well the comitee is going to investigate the content of the complaint given to them, doesn't mean the complaint is right, doesn't mean its wrong, but it does mean that its viable.

  3. Re:Windows on 20th Anniversary of Windows · · Score: 1

    Actually both are grammatically correct though i usually use "Plus sa change, plus c'est pareil" the other one sounds more like a direct translation.

  4. Re:Maybe a combination of the 2 on Archimedes Death Ray · · Score: 1

    Yep it was even /.ed some time ago -1 redundant on the article

    Dat's a nice website ya got dere. SHAME if sumtin happened to it. /Godfather music in background
    Dat's a nice website ya got dere. SHAME if it got posted on /. . Who needs a botnet ...
  6. Re:Oh sit down in your corner. on Best Buy vs. The Game Makers · · Score: 1

    The game still belongs to only one person to whom wich they owe service, I doubt the person who bought the game retail and got rid of it will call the help desk anymore. Granted the examples described in TFA (cd-key not working) wouldn't happen if it was a 1st buy, its still a legit call.

  7. So this is it on Guild Wars Gone Gold, Previewed · · Score: 1

    Thats what everyone's been talking about huh ... looking at the specs and seeing as my comp has fun running WoW I think I'll stick to that. Doesn't seem like my type anyways, I like having to watch over my shoulder all the time in case some crazy opponent is running by (FPS habits)

  8. Re:Geezus, what horrible lists. on Genre-Defining Games? · · Score: 1

    Only thing I would change is Sports, has to be Blades of Steel on Nintendo, EA took of from that and added nice graphics. I have yet to figure why people buy EA Sports games every year, I guess I'm just not a sports game fan

  9. Re:Google's usefulness on No Secret Plan at Google? · · Score: 1

    Now now since when is Canada part of the US ?

  10. 404 on No Secret Plan at Google? · · Score: 1

    Now the reason for people speculating that Google is building an OS to be wrong is a 404 error. I've seen bad argumentation on /. but this is definitely the worse one yet.

  11. Re:Easy. on In Which OS Do You Feel More Productive? · · Score: 1

    Ohhh geee, and I thought 42 was the answer

  12. Re:$91840 salary + overtime? on EA Faced With Another Employee Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    Your calculations are all good, and I'd sure like to make 90k a year even if I have to do some crunch time. But taking reference the EASpouse post, at EA your talking crunch time over crunch time over more crunch time, you can't even take a 3-day weekend to relax from your last crunch because your starting another crunch on monday.

    So like someone else said before 90k a year for 60-70 hours a week does not equal 41$ / hour

  13. Re:Good. on What Makes a Good UI? · · Score: 1

    KISS is all i have to say

  14. I like this part on Online Gaming Addictive? · · Score: 2, Insightful
    It all boils down to whether you have enough willpower to tear yourself away from whatever is keeping you amused.
    People like to blame the game, the developper, the marketing, the government, esrb? i could go on ... In the end your the one sitting in front of the screen and nothing is plugged into you sending addictive molecules to your brain.
  15. Re:Missing the point of the judgement on French Court Orders Google to Stop Competing Ad Displays · · Score: 1
    The problem I see is that google is offered to companies as a free publicity service (if your using search words not side adds), what could stop them from not showing the official website of a company when you search for its name...

    We're in a capitalist system, use it or change it, if Vuitton wants their adds to show more than the competitors well their just going to have to pay more, period.
