  1. Re:Even though sales suck I still don't regret my. on PSP Still Struggling For Notice · · Score: 2, Interesting

    >>the PSP screen is beautiful...

    For still images, yes, it's gorgeous, but its response time is horrible. I was excited for GTA, but the constant ghosting makes me sick (not to mention the aforementioned ass-sucking analog nub).

  2. [Complement] on Greatest Games - The Sims · · Score: 1

    Fantastic observation!

    So... Will you be my friend now? I only ask because I'm trying to get this promotion at work. If you do not comply now, that is OK; I will simply keep joking with you and giving you backrubs until you do. Be warned, however, that if I am too involved in rubbing your back or trying to tickle you, I may pee myself and yell nonsense into the skies.

  3. Re:The middle ground? on The Industry On In-Game Advertising · · Score: 1

    >>One of the reasons I don't like going to IGN.com is because they INSIST on occasionally loading a full-page commercial instead of taking me straight to the news.

    Use Adblock and block atax.ign.com; no "click to continue" pages and everything loads faster. It is the sweet life.

  4. Re:Possible... on PS3 Industry Leader In 2007? · · Score: 1

    This generation, yes, Nintendo was like RC Cola. They had a slightly different taste, but they were still a cola. Next generation, I would say they're more like Dr. Pepper... or maybe even milk.

  5. Re:The question is... on Nintendo Puts Emphasis On Parental Control · · Score: 1

    That post reminds me of two things I've forgot about over the years:

    When I was young there was some protection scheme on our C-Band satellite dish receiver. I could never guess the password, but one night it came to me in a dream. The next night I snuck out and tested my dream number (2589, BTW). What followed was a night of watching glorious, muted porn. (I'm on to you dad!) It must run in the family, because one time my brother awoke from a dream and somehow knew the password to get to the last level on Aliens for the C64, where you play as Ripley in the Power Loader and fight the Queen. And those passwords aren't short, either!

    I SHIT YOU NOT.

  6. Re:What you really need... on Nintendo Puts Emphasis On Parental Control · · Score: 1

    You act like you don't like being called the N-Word over and over again every time you are killed by someone with a high-pitched voice.

    But for real, overt parental control is a step in the right direction, but the problem will never be solved because people will continue to be stupid, parents and children alike. Perhaps something akin to Leisure Suit Larry 1's age verification trivia is in order?

  7. Re:Web Browser on Hands on With Nintendo's Wi-Fi Adapter · · Score: 4, Informative

    I recently upgraded my PSP to firmware v2.0 in order to play GTA:LCS. I will now tell you the wonders of browsing the web on the PSP. First, while the screen si[OUT OF MEMORY]

  8. Re:Other tidbits on BusinessWeek Interviews Miyamoto · · Score: 3, Funny

    Always thought it would be neat to have a version with the same levels but you could go to the left.

    But then everyone would go back and get the hidden green mushroom after the pipe before the hole. Where's the fun in that?

  9. Re:So on Significant FBI Abuses of the Patriot Act · · Score: 1

    I am -- I didn't know Female Body Inspectors had so much pull in America.

  10. Re:Something I always wanted to know about Cliffy on CliffyB Talks Gears of War And Design · · Score: 1

    Don't talk about Grandmaster "Cliffy" B that way.

  11. Re:The headline.. like a tragedy on Indie Game Developers See Big Opportunity · · Score: 1

    btw when is it indie, and when do you use indy.. ??

    "Indie" is short for "Independent".
    "Indy" is short for "Indiana was the dog's name!!!"

  12. PSafeP on First PSP Trojan Reported · · Score: 2, Interesting

    There is a program called PSafeP for Windows that claims to check EBOOT files for suspicious code. I have yet to verify its validity (my PSP is still collecting dust). Has anyone here checked it out?

    (Sorry for linking to PSPUpdates, but it's the only place I've seen this.)

  13. Internet Partitioning? on Internet Partitioning - Cogent vs Level 3? · · Score: 1

    We should partition the Internet with FAT. A 2GB limit should suffice, right?

    "Hey, where did Slashdot go?"
    "Oh, that's at F:/http://www.slashdot.org now."

  14. Re:The Bad on The Gameboy Micro Reviewed · · Score: 1

    My girlfriend does not like playing with small, pink things.

    Trust me.

  15. Re:okie doke on PSP Firmware Downgrader Released · · Score: 1

    (or three)

  16. I'm not sure -- on Revolution GunCon Concepts · · Score: 1

    Was the Concept created for IGN by Tim Forbrook (Paladin69, IGN Boards)? Can someone fill me in on this?

  17. Re:"the japs...."? on Buffer Overflow Found in PSP Firmware v2.0 · · Score: 1

    I didn't know my grandpa visited Slashdot, much less knew how to use a computer...

  18. Re:You say you want a Revolution? on Nintendo Revolution Controller Revealed · · Score: 1

    "While I am male ... I just want to have fun."

    I thought only girls wanted that.

  19. That said, on Nintendo Revolution Controller Revealed · · Score: 0, Troll

    I didn't think it was possible for my boner to rip through my pants.

    Thank you for your insights.

  20. Re:remember when on Nintendo Revolution Controller Revealed · · Score: 5, Funny

    I was eating mushrooms.

    I think.

  21. You're forgetting about... on Review: Nintendogs · · Score: 5, Funny

    A cat would be easy, it just eats and sleeps most of the time, though you could enjoy the thrill of virtual litterbox cleaning and dragging a string around while the cat chases, or even give it a brown paper shopping bag to hide in.

    You're forgetting about putting a sock on its head.

  22. Re:Maybe it's just me, but... on New IBM Ultra Fast Printer · · Score: 1

    A Redundant Array of Inexpensive Printers is a great idea, sans the fact that the acronym is RAIP.

    "Hey new guy, we need someone to configure our new RAIP system. Want to go in the back office and check it out?"

    DAMMIT! Can I trade you?

  24. Re:40 games at once? on S3 Graphics Comes out of Hiding with Chrome20 · · Score: 1

    They weren't playing them all at the same time.

    I think the more interesting thing about this article is the door that reads "This door is to remain closed at all times". How do they get in?

    ...with rice and beans on the side.

    Oops, I'm sorry -- that was my señor project.
