  1. Swords. on 20 Titles At Revolution Launch · · Score: 5, Funny

    This means about 20 developers thought "Hmm... that's a cool controller. Wouldn't it be cool if you could use it to swing a sword... or something."

    The games are:

    • Sword Fight
    • Sword Fight 2
    • Flying Swords
    • Zelda: Sword Fight
    • Mario: Sword Jump Super Sword!!!
    • ...
  2. An idea... on BBC Tells World About The Warden · · Score: 1

    A good idea might be to have servers where the invasive software is required, and servers where it is not. Players will then have the choice between less cheaters or greater privacy.

    A better idea would be to design a game where mindless repetitive behaviour is not rewarded. It is easy to create scripts for and rarely fun anyway. I say this without knowing how repetitive this particular game is, as I haven't played it.

  3. Re:In Perspective... on Wireless Hijacker Dealt First UK Punishment · · Score: 3, Funny

    This method was introduced by Margaret Thatcher to take down crime.

    It worked.

  4. Re:Perhaps the wrong distribution model on American Anime Localization Company Tries Torrents · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Isn't that why it's precisely the correct model?

    Those who want the DVD will still buy the DVD. Meanwhile, those fans who wish to download the anime and respect licencing laws can now do so.

    I don't think providing a bittorrent will cost them much extra. Plenty of people seem to be able to do this for free.

    It's win-win.

  5. Re:Amateurs don't carry static charges? on Inside the PSP · · Score: 1

    If we get the entire readership of slashdot together, we could probably harness the power of lightning and take over the world!

    Nerd utopia, here we come!

  6. Re:It's kind of wierd to think on Powerful Galaxies Found in Infrared · · Score: 1

    How would you know if there is life or not from an infared spectrograph? Maybe an alien got drunk one day and moved the stars to spell out 'GAPHALGROD WAZ ERE STARDATE 29293'?

    We're not even sure if there's life on Mars yet, and that is right next to us. There are also some moons in our own solar system that are good candidates for possible life.

    It really doesn't matter how much space we've mapped from here - we're actually going to have to get off our arses to find life.

  7. Re:homosexuality on A Savant Explains His Abilities · · Score: 1
    Man lie with a man as he would a woman?

    It occurs to me that the only people breaking this law are:

    • Men who have sex with both men and women.
    • Men who have sex with neither men or women.

    The following are safe:

    • Men who have sex with men but not women.
    • Men who have sex with women but not men.

    So, the only ones screwed over are bisexuals and nerds who can't get any.

    Erm... best to keep this quiet guys.
