    MMOs Need More Bastards

    You can still come across this level of 'realism' in some MUDs. Shame it's hard to translate to the mass market. (just having a pvp server doesnt really count)

    How is the American War for Independance taught in the UK?

    I think you'll find the Allies won WWII. As of 1941, Russia became part of the Allied effort to push back Germany. If Britain (with massive assistance from it's colonies at the time) the USA, Russia, the free Polish along with the French resistance (who would of course be classed as IED...

    UPDATE: PS3 Hacker GeoHot Claims He's on Vacation

    Hmm. I would have to say that the innocent do run, in the face of insurmountable odds. Further, the emerging particulars of this 'case' should not detract from the underlying issue - the right to do whatever you want with your own property. Piracy arguments do not apply, the person...

    David Jaffe Predicts Next Console Generation Will Be the Last

    What a load of tripe. Recordable cassettes were going to kill the music industry. (A succession of bland "1 album" 'artists' are doing that job quite nicely) Recordable videos were going to kill the film industry. (A succession of shite films are doing that job quite nicely) Software...

    Extra Punctuation: Let's Talk About Let's Play

    Whilst not a specific LP site, over the years I've enjoyed keeping an eye on http://speeddemosarchive.com/ - not all of the run throughs have commentary, however some of them are hilarious - the just over 4 minute completion of morrowind being an old fave.

    Escape to the Movies: Four Lions

    Enjoyed the film at the cinema and it gets a re-watch every couple of weeks on dvd - as with most things, you pick up on so much more in the rewatches and if you enjoyed it at the cinema or weren?t sure about it, get it on dvd and go through it again ? I don?t think you?ll be disappointed...

    Ubisoft DRM Authentication Servers Go Down

    The use of continual callback DRM protection of this nature is bloody stupid. A bud of mine bought napoleon total war via steam, had played it a few times, and was furious to find out it refused to startup when his ISP went batshit for 3 days. (he was playing solo, not multi) Offline one...

    244: The Last Masquerade

    Really enjoyed the game - although I only played it after the 1.2 patch was released. Later replayed it with wesp's unofficial patch. And am current replaying it after finding a tweak to make it sit nicely on the widescreen monitor =) Excellent music, voice acting, atmospheric...

    Poll: Your feelings of game pirating.

    Excellent posts SavingPrincess & invitationofchaos. You've both managed to say what needed to be said. IMO naturally ;-)
