If you have just a little patience, then almost all the games out on the XBox 360 will be put into PC platform. Like Halo did for the regular Xbox and a few other games that dont need to be mentioned becasue they suck. Not to mention elumators work great on the PC to play a huge portion of Xbox games.
Now dont get me wrong here. I am an avid Microsoft fan, beta tester and what not for them. but I would never put money down on a fancy gaming system when i could drop the same money into my home system and have it more powerful then what gameing system is out.
True very True about the Star Wars mess. after the NGE they did it messed the whole thing up. i played it for a bit becasue a friend really wanted me on his server. I have been playing City of Heroes though since it came out.. i also have a FFXI account, but i am thinking of selling that one now that i am married i dont have as much time to devote to online games. so now my PSP is saving me.:) a cool MMORPG for the PSP would be cool i think. lol
Star Craft is fine and all.. but you already have a "Craf" game... World of Warcraft.. hmm lets see.. should we make a game that is pretty darn the same thing as what we already have? migth seem like a good business model right now, becasue of all the people that love WoW. But as an avid Diblo 1 & 2 player i would love to see a new update to an already MMORPG. It is all there. just needs some graphic tweaks and allow a ton of people in the same "world". I think that waisting time and money on Star Craft is a bad idea. and one big reason why is that Star Trek MMORPG will be out soon. how many star based MMORPGs do we need? Star wars Star Trek adn now Star Craft? i think not.
I think having Vice City Stories on my PSP has been great this year. Not too many great PSP games out there right now and i have always loved the GTA games. this one has some great added options like being able to buy back your guns after being arested and such. (also being able to swim rocks).
I have been playing Valkrie Profile on the PSP and that is a nice port they did. I also have been happy playing Final Fantasy XII on the PSP. being able to play PSOne games on the PSP is sweet. so maybe that is the best thing this year for me at least.
I would NEVER buy a Xbox becasue my home PC is a nice gaming rig so no need for a Xbox. I have some money set aside for the PS3 but i think i will wait till May to buy one.
I agree fully with Apple on this one. but i think that no one ever should have called a Pod Cast a PODCast unless they were using their iPod directly to send the data over the stream. i had a buddy with a SoundForge radio staion and he called the a Pod Cast. i told him that is in no way a Pod Cast. no way! he doesnt even own an iPod (nor does any one i know hehehe). We all have Archos and Apitek products.
I think that "normal" people are so out of touch with PCs and understanding what is going on with their PCs and all this is becasue of Mac making it easy enough for a 2 year old to use a PC. so adding names like Pod to things that got with your iPod makes since to me beacsue normal people are to dumb to understand it if it didnt have the Pod in the name.
Good point i was going to say the same thing.. Either NetFlix or GreenSceen have a very nice set up to hold thousands of DVDs. I am sure something like that combined with a Robotic Arm and a Bar Code Scanner would be the best soultion.
I have a few macros that i have made. one of them makes my Caps Lock key a direct CTRL-ALT-DEL. and if i ever needed to use it i have it set up if i hit SHIFT and CapsLock it turns it on/off:)
it's all about the Macros for me. about 80% of my job somedays is cut and paste so why not?

Shadowrun vs. Shadowrun

· Score: 3, Interesting
I think that if they really wanted a true to RPG table top game for the PS3 or what ever they should have made a shadowrun game like how the newer GTA's are set up. That way people can pick what type of char. they want to be. be it Rigger / Decker / Mage / Body Mods / or combo, but you would be able to grow your char. like if on one mission your arm gets blown of you can go to a hosiptal and get a new one put on be it cyber or cloned. i think making Shadowrun a FPS is the worst idea i have ever heard! (well i hate ALL FPS so it is hard for me to say anything else.)
Funny i saw the subject of KISS and thought you were going to sujest to make a KISS - the band PS3 system. I would love a KISS system to go with the rest of my KISS posters and shirts and hats and all that jazz.;) lol
on your other point there "rack mount systems" with a unervisal plugs.. Have you checked out JVC's line of home therate products? i love my ALL JVC home audio system/TV. They have a thing called AV comp-u-link. this is a 3.55mm jack that takes of all things any male to male headphone cord. With this all hooked together, my TV/DVD/Reciver i can plop a DVD in and if i am watching TV the reciver will automaticly switch over to DVD and then change the sound and suround levels to where i had set it last for playing a DVD. If i turn off my TV, everything JVC related also turns off. all in all the JVC comp-u-link is awesome and i would sujest it to any one.
ohh.. good question.. i actually dont use a copier. I down load the ROMs from ROMNation or some other site. but i have been using ROMs for a long time now on my PC so i had a good stack of them already saved up. As far as making new ROMs with the GB Advance or the DS... i would go check out this site: www.gameboy-advance.net
psp-hacks.net is a great spot for links on how to get the the PSP back down to the 1.5 version that you need to run the homebrew. or if you have a 2.5 system and GTA you can use the elumanators.
that is pretty ture.. very hard to do a lot of things in FFXI with out having to have a party. the NGE in SWG through me off and i only knew one guy playing it. so i re-instated my City Of Heroes account so i could try out the newer City of Villians. those are both good/fun games to play with or with out a group.
so yeah... umm with a firmware of 2.5 you can downgrade to 1.5 and be able to play games coded for 2.0-2.7 so far. it is not hard to do at all. i have my psp set up like that. i have 1.5 firmware on mine still but i use a tool to trick the system to let me play my newer games. yes it sucks havning to do that, but it would suck even more not to have it at all.
Plus if you feeling up to it you can always get the new Mod Chip that is out and you can use Custom firmwares made by the homebrew people.
I have coded many Java games to run on the 2.5 browser and they are great to play with too. Everyone loves a quick game of hangman or tic tac toe! lol
but being able to also run Elumators so i can also play to ever cool GameBoy games on my PSP. i dont see being able play PSP or old PSone games on a DS;)
I was going to say the same thing the other way around. Lucasarts has always been the forfront of messing up the fun for poeple playing their games.
SOE on the other hand has a few great MMORPGs, i played Final Fantasy XI for over two years, all the updates they did were great. the down time was nill. being able to group with people to have a nice team effort wroked great. i loved it. but then a freind of mine (an avid Star Wars junkie) wanted me to play a medic toon on his server. so i joined up before the NGE that they did to that poor game. at first it was okay, not really up to par with FFXI but okay. then after the NGE it went all down hill, things i had on my toon were no longer useable, the path that i had spent HOURS and DAYS working on was gone and all i had was my orginal path and a stupid re-spec thing.
So all in all i would say SOE is okay. Lucasarts has their thumb on the wrong part of the world. they have no idea that people no longer like Star Wars PC games becasue of this online one.
Has any one played this before? it is a Mod for Quake 3 built on the quake 3 engine they have made a very very nice Dragon Ball Z type of fighting game. Although they had to drop all DBZ refferaces the feel is still there. the team capture the dragon ball (flag) is great. the level desgines are up to par with other mods on Quake. plus you can use any quake toon mod to make your player look different. Or you can revert back to Quake and have a Goku toon to play with and in stead of holding a gun the builts or what not comes out of the palm of your hand. pretty sweet.
i am not sure if you all read Physlink.com but it is a great site. ANy ways they have been selling a Fule Cell Toy Car Build it your self kit.

A Science Kit for the 21st Century!
Endless hours of fun and learning as you assemble and experiment with a unique reversible fuel cell.
This new Thames & Kosmos Fuel Cell Kit provides a playful introduction to one of the most significant technologies of the 21st Century. With this kit you can build a model car that actually runs on water! Now that we have your attention, roll up your sleeves and find out more through experiments and demonstrations you can do on your own, in a classroom or with friends.
Fuel cells are one of the most promising means of producing energy in the future. Because they do not consume fossil fuels they are considered environmentally friendly. Automobile manufacturers are already experimenting successfully with this technology and it is widely believed that fuel cells will become the energy source for automobiles in the near future. With this unique kit, you can build your own experimental reversible fuel cell car to learn more about this energy source.
With more than 30 experiments and demonstrations, provided either in the kit or on our web site, users will learn how a reversible fuel cell works to perform electrolysis as well as to create energy. The electricity required to activate electrolysis is created with a large solar cell included with the kit. During electrolysis, water is separated into hydrogen and oxygen and the resulting energy is stored as a gas. When needed, the gas is fed into the fuel cell, which then serves as the power source. The Thames & Kosmos Fuel Cell kit also includes a digital MultiMate which measures currents and voltage, allowing you to learn exactly what a fuel cell is and how it functions. The experiments and demonstrations explain the physics upon which this future technology is based.
Experiments
30 Experiments include: How to build a solar-powered car; Effects of direct and indirect radiation; Characteristics of a solar module; Electrolysis and its effect on water; Oxy-hydrogen test; How to construct and load a reversible fuel cell; Decomposition of water in the fuel cell; Qualitative and quantitative analysis of gas in a fuel cell; How efficient is electrolysis?; How light influences electrolysis; Solar electrolysis; Fuel cell-powered car. Add your own experiments!
Kit contains:
Complete reversible fuel cell (hydrocycle system) Wire Motor Chassis Axle Gas collector 4 Wheels Solar panel with support Syringe Tube Digital multimeter Test tube Protective goggles Labels Bag of small parts for fuel cell Bag of small electronic parts Comprehensive lab manual with 30 experiments and demonstrations (Additionally required: 1 quart of distilled water)
The kit comes with a 96-page, full color manual and experiment guide.
Recommended for ages 12 and older.
Price: $129.95 with free shipping!

I already have my cash reay for the launch of the PS3. i have saved $$$ each check since last November... and put it into a whole seperate account just to hold for a PS3.
I think that loyal Sony fans like me will be doing the same thing. i am so very sure that PS3 will blow the stupid Xbox out of the water. (plus my home system has more power then a Xbox ever will, and most games for Xbox are put on PC at the same time or even before the console release.)
Now dont get me wrong. i love Microsoft more then the next guy, but a Xbox i will not buy, might play it at a friends house and rag on him for shelling out the money for a computer you cant upgrade.;)
Long live sony!.. hmm now where is that Sony OS.. that is where they need to go.
Descent was a awesom game that pushed the limits of the PCs of the time. I would love to have cool fun games like that again.:)
I am so tired of The Sims, Sim City was fun becasue you could destory everything after you built it up. And all the MMOG are yucky. i got sucked into Final Fantasy XI becasue i was into the rest of the series. but after i got Married i had to cancel that account;) and then i tried Star Wars because a few old Collage buddies were playing it. and well it sucked big time, then they did the NGE and wow they really messed things up. The toon i picked was no longer an optoion and i had to choose a new way for my toon to go. and then there was Jedi's running all over. forget that! Stupid Sony Online:(
Umm? Have you played Madden on the PS2 before? has this Seahawks guy? i dont think so, becasue i have a madden game i can have 8people playing at the same time, that is four on each team you can do, not the full controll of all then players on the field but enough to have a team effort.
Even Ice Hockey games you can do this...
I got a call from the CEO's assistant. she said her PC wont turn on. i had her check the connections and everything but is the lap top here in the office?.. lol so once i went up to her office and i looked at the docking station. i asked where is the lap top? she said oh that? it is at home. i thought everthing was stored on that, and she pointed to the docking station. hehehe.
I had a job for about two months at a best buy. the only questions they asked me when they were interview me was:
1. If i hit print on a word doc and the printer isnt printing how would you solve this?
and then the best buy question of the year:
2. Tell me how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich step by step like i dont know how to make one...
i think that is a reason why the people that work there are so bad.. all they know how to do is make PB&J sandwiches;) lol
I ended up quiting to go back to web design:)
I called and cancelled my account with AOL (i only signed up for a free 30day thing to get a free Flat Screen), i called on the 28th day and told them i wish to cancel and i didnt want it and i never ever used it or logged onto their web site. so they canceled it. then i get a charge right out of my account four months later for 89.99! i call them and tell them to give me my money back because stil i have never ever logged onto AOL but they would not refund my money saying that i never canceled and they didnt have record of my conversation. I then yelled at the person to get a manger on and the manager was so very rude. i told them all to go fu@k themselves and burn in hell.
so the point of the story.. never ever sign up for AOL!
such a good point there. all goes back to the big oil companies and the government wanting more money.;)
i think it is time to start an IT island now. start a new government that has a mandatory work from home.. lol not really but that would be nice.

Why cant these compaines use Term Server? it would then be a bit more on the secure side, at least that way you dont have dumb people taking their lap top home with personal data on it. I actually work as IT for a sub division of Bank of the West, we do not allow our users to have ANY borrower/customer data saved on their local machine. if they do they can be let go quicker then you can say "i didnt mean to save it on my desk top"
some of the managers here can "telecommute" in. if they would let the loan processors here do that too, then we could close half of the office and save the company on rental costs energy costs and much much more. Plus not to mention the gas saved for the peopele that could work from home.
I think with the gas the way it is, more companies should encourage their employees to stay at home.
So the police have already done their job and arested the 19year dude. Would you beable to sue the phone company if someone calls you and then you meet them and they rape you? i dout it. this should get out of court soon. Stupid girl probally liked it but the mom found out and got upset.

If they released more Anime films, TV shows and such i would buy them up quick style. but watching a full legnth Hollywood film on my lunch break doesnt work, I would rather watch a short TV show while i am eating and then when i am done eating pop in a game and finish out my luch hour in style. Plus if sony was just a little smarter they would make a portable UMD player/game thing. Like make a 11'' portable screen about the size of the PS1 and have a UMD slot and a regular PSP DVD Rom slot and have a nice little protable game / dvd movie thing i can take camping.

Plus not to mention the gas saved for the peopele that could work from home. I think with the gas the way it is, more companies should encourage their employees to stay at home.
So the police have already done their job and arested the 19year dude. Would you beable to sue the phone company if someone calls you and then you meet them and they rape you? i dout it. this should get out of court soon. Stupid girl probally liked it but the mom found out and got upset.
If they released more Anime films, TV shows and such i would buy them up quick style. but watching a full legnth Hollywood film on my lunch break doesnt work, I would rather watch a short TV show while i am eating and then when i am done eating pop in a game and finish out my luch hour in style. Plus if sony was just a little smarter they would make a portable UMD player/game thing. Like make a 11'' portable screen about the size of the PS1 and have a UMD slot and a regular PSP DVD Rom slot and have a nice little protable game / dvd movie thing i can take camping.
