  1. Re:my thoughts on EVE Online's First Quarterly Economics Report Published · · Score: 0, Insightful

    Yes you obviously must be a WoW player. Sorry but not every game is going to allow you to be uber l33t in just a week. You have to actually work hard in this game. That is one of the many reasons I love EVE. It does away with the carebears and WoW players, and has a more mature player base.

    You say combat is boring? Yeah you obviously never been in a hundred man op before either. Once again if you dedicate some time to the game and put forth the effort you might get something out of it.

    This isn't WoW and it never will be.

    There is obviously not enough lobbying going on...

  3. Pull the plug on Monitor Draws Zero Power In Standby · · Score: 3, Interesting

    So does that mean I can pull the plug and have the monitor remain in standby mode?

  5. Thanks Slashdot! on What Are The Best Free Games Online? · · Score: -1

    The exchange server is going to catch on fire, but I won't notice because I am to busy playing Bow Man.

  6. Would it really bother us? on Target May Discontinue Manhunt 2 Sales · · Score: 0, Insightful

    Would it really affect us that much? Most gamers pick there stuff up from GameStop or Walmart. You would think the extra games could just be shipped to those locations. It's not like were going to run short because one company wants to stop selling the game.

    Also...Don't hand me that "The game is not selling well" bullshit. I swear if I see a "Barbie goes to the mall" video game, I know that Manhunt 2 has to be selling better than that.

  7. Re:matter of time on Cell Phone Jamming on the Rise · · Score: -1

    Any business owner who jams a call about somebody having a heart attack would be sued into oblivion, and deserve it.
    Any business that does not have a land line phone is in need of some serious help.
  8. Re:fanboys unite on Fake Codec is Mac OS X Trojan · · Score: -1

    Isn't that why they put that into Vista? The whole "Prompt for admin rights" yet people flipped a bitch about that one.

  9. Look at the possitive... on Metal Gear Solid 4 Delayed To 2008 · · Score: 0

    I'd rather them delay it than rush something out the door. If this is to ensure that it gets done correctly, that is fine by me.

  10. That was obviously not the Best Buy....Oh god I hate myself....

  11. Video on Lunar Lander Challenge Ends in Fire, Disappoinment · · Score: -1

    I'm not sure if this is the right one but I found a video...perhaps for a later crash.

  12. Cut the guy some slack on Thompson Sues ESRB, Best Buy · · Score: -1

    Ok, I'm no Jack fan, but he is right that games with M rating should not be sold to minors.

    That doesn't exactly prevent people from taking it out of your mailbox before you get to it first.

    For some, Comcast is the only options besides Dial-up.

    Think before opening your pie hole.

    Nah I don't have a T2 Battleship. I was just using that as an example.

  16. Re:A lot of issues on EVE Online Endures Downtime Due to Breached Security · · Score: 0, Insightful

    it is addictive because it is unique.

    Without making a super long post about it...my #1 favorite thing about the game is the strategy forced upon a player. By that I mean the death system can be harsh. You don't just run on in guns-a-blazin and hope to kill something. This isn't WoW. You have to think hard and work as a team so your T2 Battleship doesn't go down the drain. Some losses can cause months of lost work.

    Some gamers like that kind of stuff, and some do not. I for one love the thrill I get when I rush in with 100 other players. It truly is a player created world.

  17. Re:Common carrier on Comcast Confirmed as Discriminating Against FileSharing Traffic · · Score: -1

    But do you think anything is going to be done about it?

  19. Re:Hmm on Consumer Group Demands XP for Vista Victims · · Score: -1

    peripherals actually be compatible.
    So that's Microsoft's fault? Try blaming the vendors who made those peripherals. Oh and a 900 rig 2 years ago can run Vista, but I am sure the last thing on peoples mind 2 years ago was "But will this run Vista" Most consumers never kept up with the news enough to know about Vista until the day it was released.
  20. Hmm on Consumer Group Demands XP for Vista Victims · · Score: -1

    Let me guess, these people probably thought they could get away purchasing a $300 computer and expect it to run Vista. Yeah it isnt the best OS in the world, but be smart before purchasing a new computer.

    I can't stand it when people complain how slow their computer runs when they only threw down 300 bucks on a new PC. They expect it to be as fast as a Viper but it ain't happening.

    What if you encrypted your traffic...Would they then know that it was VOIP traffic?

    Only the FBI said through a spokesman: "We don't have anything like that."
    *whew* We'll thats good. Nothing to see here folks move along. Why would the FBI ever hide something from us.

    Holy sh*t you mean the internet has been active for 10 years?

    Seriously though good job /.

  24. Don't Update on Hacked iPhones Confirmed As Bricking With Latest Update · · Score: -1

    If you updated the second it was available and had an unlocked iPhone your just asking for it.

    Any person with any sort of common sense would know now to run the update until someone else does.

    Simple put....Don't update until you read the latest news.

  25. My opinion on Orange Box Turns Gold · · Score: -1

    So I have heard alot of people complain about the orange box saying thing's like "I already purchased the old half Life whys should I have to pay for it again?"

    Well me personally, I have never played any of the Half-Lifes. I think this was a great opportunity to get me into the Half-Life series. The Orange Box was a great idea.

    I do think they should offer games like "Team Fortress 2" for a lower price by itself. But as a whole it is a great deal.

    (BTW: That game that comes with it? Peggle? Yeah...f*ck that game is so addicting!)
