*Nokia tune* Hello?! No I'm on an airplane! An airplane! It's some new system! Total rubbish! Hang on you're cracking up! You're cracking up, call me back! Alright, ciao!
You know, there are a lot of starving children in Africa who would be benefited by much less effort than what went into this device that will lead to many premature deaths through sloth and gluttony.
THIN THE HERD. There's already global overpopulation, why are we trying to save these kids?
I think the best you're going to get are Rogue-like games. I'd recommend ADOM. You might also try shockwave.com, they actually have some pretty interesting puzzle games.
There was actually a suite of parody games/toys that came out a few years ago called "Microshaft Winblows 98". I remember seeing it in a CompUSA store, me and my mom both had a good laugh.
GameSpot has some video previews of the game, if you can stand programmers with no PR training whatsoever blathering on for 7 minutes. But that hasn't kept me from adding it to my Christmas list, for sure.:)
I've found that the same people that make statements like this are also the people make flip remarks such as "Well don't buy their products then" when someone complains about Microsoft's unethical business tactics.
I only use "then don't buy their products" when the person doesn't offer a realistic solution to whatever they're bitching about (which is 99% of the time). If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem.
the n64 and psx controllers have more buttons.
n64 has 9; R, L, 4 C buttons, A, B, and Z (trigger)
psx has 8; R1, R2, L1, L2, circle, square, triangle, and X. (who the hell came up with the idea of using shapes to identify buttons?)

I agree. It could get quite messy.
Yes there is.
Seems OSI really had a genius plan with GGS... Wonder why I didn't think of it.
I avoid AMD because of my personal experience with them. Motherboard problems with a K6 400MHz, and software stability problems with an Athlon 900MHz.
Forget about speed, I'd rather pay more for a chip I'm 100% positive will last.
Reminds me of a t-shirt I had when I was a kid.
"In Washington, you don't get a tan, you get rusty"
I'm waiting until it gets to the North Pole so Santa will actually recieve my emails.

If all else fails, there's always the Playstation Portable...
Wow, you mean I'm not the only person in the world who isn't a jaded AMD fanatic?
But if it would actually require a treaty between most of the nations on earth, it obviously won't be happening any time soon.
And of course we'll have to actually get to the moon first...

everyone needs porn. the amount of porn people have is limited by bandwidth and hard-drive space, not desire.
