I remain skeptical also. The resolution is small for one thing. Is there a way to get larger resolution for these games? I'm used to games taking up my entire screen.
Also what will be cost of this service? I mean is it aimed at people who can't get proper hardware for these games? If you can't afford the hardware why would you afford this service? What happens when this service goes down?
They have to homogenize. If the two factions were either perfectly balanced or not in competition with each other it would not be a problem. But because it is very hard to balance the factions if they are different, and because the factions are competing with each other for player, move to a more uniform factions is natural. When one faction has an edge over the other, however small, it is detrimental to both factions! This has been proven over the history of WoW and many other games.
Yes however this seems to be different. You will be transformed into another race I think. Which is kinda lamer than the EQ2 version. I loved the betray function of eq2 which allowed you to use the races of your opposing faction.
I don't know about that. Ultima Online, the grandfather of MMOs, has had near instantaneous travel to anywhere in the world. Yet despite this people still gravitated towards social hubs. Though such hubs varied by server a bit as players created their own hot spots. You could go anywhere in an instant (provided you have the properly marked rune), but you might not find anyone there.
The world was still big enough to find a spot to bash monsters and not be interrupted by any but the most diligent player killers.
While UO evolved and moved towards a bit more restricted travel in some instances, it still maintained hot spots vs cold spots dynamic. There were places that took effort to get to, and were usually deserted.
And what will people eat instead? The problem has never been too many cows, it's always been too many people.
As a side note I can see the classic corporate dick move. Come up with a cow that create less methane. Patent this cow. Lobby US Congress to mandate that this cow become the only cow allowed by law under the guise of lowering methane emissions. Sit back and collect money.
Also why does this cow make less methane. Do we know for sure that there is no side effect to this? Maybe the cow is less efficient at digesting. and requires more food. Maybe it just tastes bad. When you try to select for a certain gene, you usually realize rather quickly that a gene does more than one thing. So far they have not made this magical cow. When they do, we might find that it is impractical to use this breed of cow at all.

All crime is hate crime. You don't commit crime on people you like.
1)There is already more women than men.
2)There is not that many Lesbians.
and graphite is an excellent lubricant.
So is Di-Hydrogen Monoxide, or so the prisoners claim.
This is to block stuff like Hamachi and GameRanger.

Make shitty games.
Oh you don't need to teach them this.
Are they sure they didn't get the George Foreman Grill Edition?
Yeah honestly I made 90 gold with a lvl 19 character mining copper and selling it in AH for 1g a stack. Some people are just lazy :/

Seriously, it's impossible to get rid of $65 Billion without having something valuable to show for it.
Wacko Jacko would disagree... were he alive.
Yeah. Just whatever you do, don't complain about your wife's "extra pounds." Unless your sofa is very comfortable of course.

Who rated this funny?
Someone with a sense of humor I'd wager.

I'm tired of non-explicit images ruining my Google searches!
How many planes will this thing bring down?
They are not stupid. They won't start filtering results unless they manage to sweep Google under the rug.
Where are you getting your information? Ahmadinejad only received 64% of the vote.
Participation = voter turnout....
Government ill-suited for big brother surveillance of populous? Sounds good to me!
Yes they were stupid. The real masterminds are the guys who sold them the credit cards.
Swine flu dropped off the media radar. They had to turn the scare back on... Millions are at stake! $ not people of course.
Yes before the damned Tower of Babel there was only one computer language. And all nations of the world wrote in single syntax!
16 million and 1 years ago? Talk about a tough crowd... and no booze or blow to help take the edge off.
