    I believe the Xbox 360 can perform 3.6 MHpF (Mega-hypes per fact ). The marketing team sat for the last 6 months optimising the performance of the facts ..The new technology breakthrough was thanks to an unprecedented runaway budget and an amazing amount of bullshit performance optimisations

    Us evil gamers are getting bad press on slashdot . Not all gamers are good upstanding people who just enjoy playing games to de-stress and have a good time . Some of us gamers actually do go on killing sprees , eat babies and Worship Satan whilst sacrificing virgins .
    I cheer CSI for giving us forgotten gamers some press .

    You are getting no Christmas present this year , only a lump of coal ;)

    The only thing which will damn you to hell in Christianity is apparently doubting the existence of the holy ghost even once (it doesn't exist , bring on the flames of hell)

    If it is right , I would rather go to hell than spend an eternity with Creation Psyentists , Their heaven would be my hell.

    Personally I am agnostic , I do not know and do not care really as it is not relevant at all . The only thing I care about in this field is the knowledge we currently have and the development of theories concerning life and the mechanisms of evolution .

    I can not say that they are wrong for the simple reason that their is absolutely no way of knowing , which in my mind makes it absolutely useless .I do not even give these people the time of day as they are preaching nonsense .

    I think I shall join the cult of Dionysus , give me something interesting to talk to them about ;)

    In 2005, a crack Hacker unit was sent to prison by an over-zealous RIAA for a crime they didn't commit(Theft , it should have been copyright infringement).

    These men promptly got released due to a technicality ,to the Los Angeles und3rgr0und!!!!. Today, still wanted by their Previous employers due to a contractual problem and for maintaining some perl code , they survive as Developers of FORTRAN.

    If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire...the @-Team.

    I would disagree partially there , It is defiantly an art ,but if you have ever been in a drawn out game you require a hell of a lot of Stamina .

  14. Re:Big Effing Deal on Gaming Fanatics Show Hallmarks of Drug Addiction · · Score: 3, Funny

    apparently the symptoms include :
    The lights being on , but your not home ,
    Your mind is apparently not your own .
    Your heart sweats and your body shakes ,
    You need another kiss to alleviate the symptoms

    Also you can't sleep , you can't eat .
    There is no doubt this is deep
    You will also notice your throat is tight and you cant breath
    again all you need is a kiss to alleviate symptoms

    Well many like to think they are immune to this stuff , Oh Yeah!
    Unfortunately it is closer to the truth to say that they can not get enough .
    Gonna have to face it , You're addicted to love.

    "Addiction by defination is a "strong emotional and /or psychological dependence on a substance""
    So , a religion is by definition
    noun the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, esp. a personal God or gods : ideas about the relationship between science and religion.
    • details of belief as taught or discussed : when the school first opened they taught only religion, Italian, and mathematics.
    • a particular system of faith and worship : the world's great religions.
    • a pursuit or interest to which someone ascribes supreme importance : consumerism is the new religion.
    "a pursuit or interest to which someone ascribes supreme importance"

    Now I do believe that strong emotions can enter into this ,being that it is something which you base your whole frame of reference on and are passionate about .
    As for a dependance , well if you live your life by a set of rules to which you believe will affect you for all eternity . I would put forth that this is a dammed good trigger for dependency .

    Is the addiction a bad thing , in many cases yes , in many cases no .

  17. Re:Now there is a good idea on Nintendo Puts Emphasis On Parental Control · · Score: 1

    I believe it could be done properly quite easily , so long as their is an easy tagging system and developers implement the tags along the guidelines of the ESRB (assuming the ESRB does not screw up). Naturally for perfect results you would need to test everything out for your children , I am sure nintendo will have a disclaimer stating such .
    If all goes according to plan , then the fault should rest either with the parents of the ESRB if there are any screw ups .

  18. Re:so essently a video game version of the v chip? on Nintendo Puts Emphasis On Parental Control · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I wouldn't say that is pessimistic , more that is exactly to the point . Rightly so , Nintendo cover their own backs and also give parents the power and responsibility to control what content their children have ,Quid pro quo .

    Nintendo may not intend it to get used , but if it is well label and explained then the fault rest solely with the parent (bar any bugs ,or the games developer if the software is not tagged properly )

  19. Re:ESRB.... :( on Nintendo Puts Emphasis On Parental Control · · Score: 1

    Hm I would rather they play games with (mild) sexual references and drug use before violence , but the idea is a good one that should be implemented.
    On a slight side note , Violence did occasionally upset me when I was young , though the only time sex on TV made me uneasy was when the parents were around .

  20. Now there is a good idea on Nintendo Puts Emphasis On Parental Control · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Actually put the responsibility Squarely at the feet of the parents , no fobbing it off to the government to pass legislation or even letting the "MORAL PANIC " groups start a witch burning .
    Though I don't know how many parents will actually bother to read the Manuel and discover about this feature , or how quickly the child will find a way to reset the defaults .
