  1. Re:Manhunt 3 on Rockstar Fights Back Against BBFC · · Score: 1

    is it still fun when you can hear the begging and screaming in 5.1?

  2. Manhunt 3 on Rockstar Fights Back Against BBFC · · Score: 1

    Just imagine the next one they release in a couple of years time (ha, i know). Hi def graphics with photo realistic body and face textures. Nintendo will have released their WiiAxe and WiiCleaver by then and you will be able to watch the blood spray from a victims jugular using the most realistic fluid modelling physics engine money can buy. It will be indistinguishable from real murder except no one really dies. or do they?

  3. Re:I wonder why... on Orange Box Dysfunctional on the PS3? · · Score: 3, Funny

    It was probably the Madden team.

  4. Nano Nano on Nano Safety Worries Scientists More Than Public · · Score: 1

    This is Mork signing off.

  5. Re:It's a subliminal suggestion on The 110 Million Dollar Button · · Score: 1

    Legend has it every 1,000,000,000,000,000th person gets the view down Clint Eastwoods gun barrel when they click that button

  6. I'll make you a green PC ... on Western Digital Touts New 'Green' Drives · · Score: 2, Funny

    now where is my paint.

  7. Re:Thanksgiving wishes for our UK slashdotters on Worry Over VZW, Sprint Phones' 911 Alarm · · Score: 1

    You are welcome to it.

  8. Re:And Opera on Comparing Memory Usage of Firefox 2 vs 3 · · Score: 1

    What the world really need is a text/command line web browser. Something that looks and feels a bit like "Word star/perfect". Rather than clicking on hypelinks you type in your destination into a command line and it converts all images into ascii art. Maybe even colour as well.

  9. Re:Unfortunately on Ecma Receives 3,522 Comments on Open XML Standards · · Score: -1, Troll

    3500 were from /. readers bitching simply because it was M$ related.

  10. Re:HL2 Has Levels? on Why Do Games Still Have Levels? · · Score: 1

    My gripe with HL2 was that each level (bit of map, whatever) had a start and an end and only one way through between them. It couldn't have been more "on rails" if it had been a racing game.

  11. Game Boy Micro on Must Nintendo Make a Mobile Phone? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    on one side and a phone on the reverse. Now that would be neat.

  12. Or maybe ... on Must Nintendo Make a Mobile Phone? · · Score: 1

    they could stick wheels and an engine on it to make a car for gerbils. That would be as likely.

  13. Re:Preinstalled firefox? on Firefox 3 Beta 1 Review · · Score: 1

    Maybe this will change your mind? I thik they can spend some of their own money first before the consider taking donations from the public.

  14. Re:A lot of these are app flaws, not flac flaws .. on Multiple FLAC Vulnerabilities Affect Every OS · · Score: 0, Redundant

    2. I hardly think libFLAC counts as an "essential Linux library". You are new here aren't you, boy.
  15. Re:Just a few more minutes... on Is Apple Tracking iPhone Users Through IMEI? · · Score: 1

    I am just saying that things like up to date stock info cost money and Apple is is giving it away as a free feature of the iPhone. Yes, you could quite easily take the URL used by YOUR iPhone and use it to get the data back in some other browser/app. Yes, you could pass the URL onto your friends and I bet that eventually Apple would eventually twig and ban it. A pirated IMEI would return the same as no IMEI. Nothing.

  16. Re:Just a few more minutes... on Is Apple Tracking iPhone Users Through IMEI? · · Score: 1

    Yes, but I would guess user-agent is the same for all iPhones. The IMEI isn't. I then refer you back to my original post.

  17. Re:Bury!!! on 90% of IT Professionals Don't Want Vista · · Score: 1

    I am just saying that I didn't want to see it. I didn't say that you couldn't see it.

  18. Re:Just a few more minutes... on Is Apple Tracking iPhone Users Through IMEI? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It is probably just to make sure that only iPhones use that service. Or registered iPhones at least.

  19. Re:Why go through all that trouble? on Is Apple Tracking iPhone Users Through IMEI? · · Score: 1

    I hear that the iPhone also takes secret photos of your ear when you are making phone calls and mails them back to Apple. Just so they can see what you are listening to.

  20. Bury!!! on 90% of IT Professionals Don't Want Vista · · Score: -1, Troll

    It is a shame you can't "bury" a story like you can on some other sites. Then you wouldn't have to waste your eyesight on FUD like this, until it eventually falls of the end of the screen.

  21. Re:what is this anime thing ? on Comcast Targets Unlicensed Anime Torrenters · · Score: 1

    I have checked out a few series and I have to say, none of it made any sense at all. Even the stuff dubbed into English. I am sure it does to the Japanese.

  23. Re:Wii on The Latest From the Front in the Console Wars · · Score: 1

    Trouble is that most of the decent Wii exclusives are only things that you have played if you have owned any of the previous Nintendo consoles. Zelda and Star Fox don't mean much to anyone raised on a PS2 or xbox. Sony lost Square/Enix years ago. They are working on 360 exclusive games and have been for a while now.

  24. Re:Wii - A passing fad? on The Latest From the Front in the Console Wars · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Yeah, I can imagine the multi player Wii experience is fun but what about single player? What about when you have had a hard day at work and just want to crash out and play something for a bit? I think I would feel a bit silly doing the whole Wii thing by myself and sometimes you just can't be arsed to jump around.

  25. Re:The richer they are on Gene Simmons Blames College Kids For Music Industry Woes · · Score: 1

    He needs the extra money to keep him in high class hookers and coke while Thom York doesn't. Not that Radioheads music couldn't do with a bit of the latter to liven it up. ;)
