    The Escapist Show: Episode 40: Putting a SSD in a PS3

    I'm with matt on this one, MGS4 had a lot more data than just the ten gigs or so that it installed to the hard drive. I have to admit, that was incredibly annoying playing that game with the constant loadings every time you changed a "scene" Anyway, I think a lot of you should check out this...

    Big Brother is Searching your Hard Drive

    Here's the plan: Write a program that looks a lot like something that could be used to pirate music or something. The second that they open it, it installs a rootkit on their system, and then writes over their MBR. That'll show the bastards.

    Worst video game weapon.

    552, M9, 9mm pistol, M11, 12 gauge pump, and basically any exclusive terrorist weapon in Socom II. If you've played that game, you'd know that there are a few very good weapons, a few average weapons, and then a whole load of shitty ones. Inaccurate, weak, and slow. In MGS4, the race gun...

    You're an NPC with only one line of dialogue

    I just want an NPC Rick Astely. "We've know each other, for so long..."

    Poll: A little math problem

    ...Is English your first language? ___________ so if "the other puppy" "fulfilled the "at least 1 is male" requirement," then the answer to the question is 100% ___________ --If, by answer to the question you mean "probability for that particular scenario", then yes. However, that is...

    Poll: A little math problem

    Another way of thinking this problem through could be to use 6 parallel universes. UNIVERSE 1: You walk into a pet store. You see two dogs, one on the left and one on the right. You walk over to the one on the RIGHT, and find that it is a MALE. The one on the left was also a MALE...

    Poll: A little math problem

    Actually, I think I've got it. It's a 66.6% chance that the other puppy is male. When you look at all the possible pairings: M/F M/M F/M (And yes, there is a difference between M/F and F/M) you just simply count up all the m's and f's -so it's 4 m's, 2 f's -so it's 6 total, and...

    Poll: A little math problem

    It's 33.3%. Since you know that one of them is a male, and the other has a .5 probability of being a male, there is a 66.6% chance that they'll both be male. Er, wait, no, since they're exclusive, it's only a 50 percent chance. Or are they exclusive? GAHH!! I DON'T KNOW! Great...

    What would you do for 3 Days...

    I'd go as fast as I could for as long as I could. Just tear down the highways going WELL over 100 mph, at least 120 if i couldn't find a car better than mine. Also, powerslides all over the place. I'd probably try (and fail) to fly a jet. And by fail, I mean I probably couldn't get one...

    Metal Gear Solid 4 Coming To Xbox?

    Wow. First off, it's called "Linux". Secondly, that's not the difference, the difference is that the Xbox 360 uses a different processor architecture than the Ps3 (x86 vs Power PC if i'm not mistaken). And if you're trying to tell me that there is no C++ compiler for a power PC based...

    What games are you replaying at the moment?

    I'm beating the original metal gears. I replayed MGS 4 and it's online a whole lot, I beat Blue Shift and Opposing force (although sadly I'm not quite done with the original half life), and other than those games I've just been re-rotating through a whole buttload of old games. Like, I've...

    Story of Portal 2?

    Well, if there is combat in the next portal against humans, just remember that only Chell is protected against falling damage because she wears those leg braces. Anyone else would be crushed to death. I have no idea how they would implement the portal gun into combat similar to Half life 2...

    Zero Punctuation: Metal Gear Solid 4

    Thank you SO MUCH for pointing out the flaw about the Mark 2 tranquilizer pistol. It's essentially the EZ gun from MGS 3, in that the suppressor is built in (and therefore never wears out), the ammo for it is essentially infinite (you'll find this stuff EVERYWHERE), and the octocamo will...

    GTA4, play it your way.

    Personally, I like to just wall off a random area with vehicles and whatnot (like times square), cause a bunch of mayhem, and when the cops start coming in numbers I can't handle, get in a car and just drive around the block in a circle for a while. Whitetrash roadrace FTW. Not really a...

    Most disappointing game?

    Recently, Haze UT3 and Assassins creed have let me down. Haze was total shit, I really can't name any redeeming features of that game. The story was shit, the graphics were shit, and the ending was even worse. Assassins creed was a great game, but could have been sooo much better given just...
