  1. Re:"free" on Cingular's Free Music · · Score: 2, Funny

    My thoughts exactly...

    It's NOT free... as in beer

  2. (OT) Wow... on Microsoft To Announce Linux Partnership · · Score: 1

    As I post this... 86 comments were before me. NONE rated above 2 yet. None were sticking out as a post.. i had to individually click every post to read them.

    It's like /. was spotlighted for a moment or something with this news.

  3. Re:Yerp. Figure it Out, Already. on Game Breakers · · Score: 1

    The Metroid Prime re-spawn-every-time-you-enter-a-room effect was simply taking the concept from ALL the OTHER Metroid games before. In every single Metroid game the enemies re-spawn when you enter any room.

  4. Re:Low prices? NO on Three Retail Versions of Halo 3 · · Score: 2, Funny

    good move!

    Sony root kit!

    Jack Thompson sucks!

  5. Re:'wii' should be like 'fish' . . . on Nintendo Promises 4 Million Shipped Wiis By Year-End · · Score: 1

    murdering? do you mean like "sleepin' with the fishes" murder?

  6. Re:Blue ray probably... on PS3 8x More Power Hungry Than PS2 · · Score: 2, Funny

    Care to provide any additional evidence ON THE background evidence to suggest that there is ANY suggestion that it wouldn't be possible to be a possibility?







    Sorry... I'll get me coat. ;)

  7. Re:I want Tetris! on Wii Virtual Console, Launch Titles Finalized · · Score: 1

    Total FUD IMNSHO, the last non-Nintendo Tetris game I recalled was Tetris Worlds (by THQ). The game WAS for the XBox.... and PS2, and GameCube, AAND GBA.... AAAAND PC.

  8. Re:Sounds good... on Wii Virtual Console, Launch Titles Finalized · · Score: 1

    Smash Bros. was dismissed from launch status MONTHS ago... E3 at least.

  9. Re:The Nintendo offerings are a bit lacking... on Wii Virtual Console, Launch Titles Finalized · · Score: 1

    Dunno, I, personally, never cared for most of the light gun games on the NES. However, I am quite sure there are a ton of folks who were.

  10. Give them a "Time-out" on Better Ways to Handle User Conflicts? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Also, ground them from the internets for 2 weeks! Also, no video games until their attitudes change.

    "HEY, you better finish you vegetables!"

  11. The Nintendo offerings are a bit lacking... on Wii Virtual Console, Launch Titles Finalized · · Score: 1

    ... luckily, the Genesis/MegaDrive and T16 offerings are GOLD.

  12. Re:Can't wait for more! on Wii Virtual Console, Launch Titles Finalized · · Score: 1

    In Japan 1 Point = 1 Yen. 1 Yen != 1 US Cent. Exchange rates are probably a *factor*, but certainly not the final say on how much a Wii Points card would cost (I wouldn't be surprised if a Canadian 2000 point card costs around $24-$25 CAD).

  13. Re:Enough storage on Wii Virtual Console, Launch Titles Finalized · · Score: 1

    Speaking of limits for SNES/MegaDrive/T16 ROMs.... those are the TOP limits of size. Many MegaDrive and SNES ROMs came in easily under 2MB (even 1MB or 512K). I'm sure (not 100%) the T16 HuCards have similar lower-end size proportions.

  14. Re:Search, Gmail, Google Earth, Picasa ... on Google Winning By Losing? · · Score: 1

    I really like Yahoo! Maps interface - it is really really nice. However, last I checked, their geocoder was still less than mature. I sometimes use obscure addresses that, these days, Google CAN find, and Yahoo! thinks are on the other side of the city.

  15. Re:A few titles I didn't expect. on Wii Virtual Console, Launch Titles Finalized · · Score: 1

    Like the previous reply you got... I, also, have played this many times, in actual cartridge form on an NES and on an emulator.... many of my friends have also. It's a great game and a decent choice for the VC.

  16. Re:No Zelda 3?... on Wii Virtual Console, Launch Titles Finalized · · Score: 1

    Australians (and Japanese also, IIRC) get a title called Wii Play that you can get "free" when you buy an additional Wii Remote. Wii Play has a series of simple Wii Remote played games similar to Wii Sports, but are not necessarily sports games. One of the mini games is a game VERY *VERY* MUCH like Duck Hunt.

    Weather or not this title is available at launch or with a Wii Remote in the US or Europe is unknown (especially to me!).

  17. Re:Worst Case Scenario? on Microsoft Partners With Zend · · Score: 1

    There are already Windows-specific API calls in PHP - has been for several releases now.

  18. Re:Attention demands 27096 gold pieces. Pay? (yn) on The Many Ways To Die in Nethack · · Score: 1

    Or in Jersey....

  19. Re:Attention demands 27096 gold pieces. Pay? (yn) on The Many Ways To Die in Nethack · · Score: 1

    What gets me about this is not the insane difficulty.... but.... WHY IN THE HELL would an ATHEIST care to ASCEND?

  20. Re:My best character meets her demise on The Many Ways To Die in Nethack · · Score: 1

    Hell... i even wrote an app at one time to do save game management :-P

  21. Re:Vascetomy is better on Trial For The Male Pill Shows No Side-effects · · Score: 1

    Just get a condo... property management will mow it!

  22. Vascetomy is better on Trial For The Male Pill Shows No Side-effects · · Score: 1

    ...one time, and it's permanent! YAY!

    unless some of these men would want to make kids someday... i have no clue why anyone would want to do that... *shrugs*

  23. What material would I'd like to see? on EMI Exec Says 'The Music CD is Dead' · · Score: 5, Funny

    $100 bills would be pretty frickin' cool

  24. Oh great... on 'Tower of Babel' Translator Under Development · · Score: 4, Funny

    the last time i heard of people constructing a Tower of Babel, the whole world got toally pwned and no one could understand each other. well, not much different than it is now is it.

    /not religious

  25. Re:I'm goin' home! *tantrum* on Lik-Sang Is Out Of Business · · Score: 1

    Well, they are stopping now... so they can refund as many orders, pre-orders, credit accounts, and *MAYBE* have a bit left for a severance for the employees they have. if they started throwing money at a lawsuit defense and drained their reserves, then there would be even a more angry customer base. and of course lik-sang wants consumers to rally around them, they are a CUSTOMER BASED BUSINESS DUH!
