I would hafta say the original Legend of Zelda.. or else LA Crackdown back on the old Apple IIC..

Course, there is always the path Eve Online seems to take. They decide that griefers and scammers are just part of the game, and make it a 'selling point' of the game... a 'there is no real law here, so take care of yourself or die' kinda environment. But yes, many of the ways griefers are...

gods, I remember those times back then. I was part of a Horde guild that would do the same thing on the Demon Soul server (we were Calamitous Intent and then later Poor Impulse Control), we would get bored and go take over a ship.. or a town, or whatever. Those days did go away once the first...

I recall a similar case several years ago that Apple got itself involved in for basically the same reason. They wanted to use a name that was _already_ trademarked by another company within the same business. You might recall this one.. the trademarked name was iPhone, which Cisco Systems uses...

Always a fun thing to go to, specially if you get involved with community projects like the pub crawls and dinners and parties. Plus the companies always seem to have nice contests going.. last year I won a 1TB external drive from Ubisoft.

looks interesting, shall hafta wait and see..

Really this is very par for the course for BOC. They have always been into fantasy themes for their music, and it would make sense to look to MMOs for new stuff. Very cool song, but then always good like BOC.

I miss the days when we got all the machines together on a network and played games. My group played Diablo 2, Starcrack, Worms 2, Mechwarrior (I think 3, maybe 4), some FPS or another, Dungeon Siege, and so on and so forth. Plus, if we didn't feel like playing a video game we could break...

Ahh, cool, I honestly could not remember if it was partnership or buyout.

Bah, the PC Nazi's are idiots anyways. The big downside is that for a good gaming laptop you end up paying at least twice what a desktop is going to run you. So look at paying at least $1500, if not quite a bit more. What you want is a decent processor (dual core, 2.1ghz) and at least 3...

Mass Effect has Alien Lesbian Non-Married Sex in it. That alone makes certain groups who will remain nameless uncomfortable. Plus I am sure the whole 'Humanity is one of those low races' and 'we treat other low races like slaves' kinda attitudes in there were sorta frowned on. These...

You know, reading this makes me happy in one thing, and one thing alone. Maybe PAX will feel a bit more like PAX this year and less like "The New E3". I swear the exhibitors just felt like they did things wrong at last year's PAX with all the Booth Babes and flash over substance. Please...

Yes! Derailing time! When I was younger we use to play things like Rummy Tile, and Monopoly, and Life. I useta go outside a lot more also. Reading books was a big one also.. and I'm only 31! My mother use to play N64 with my little brother though, Goldeneye or something like that. My...

Not really. Sometimes shock makes it take awhile for the pain to hit. Eventually the death will feel 'real' and you will probably be hit with some grief. Course, it also depends on how close you were to your aunt and so on. Hard to really feel 'bad' about a death of someone you didn't know...

True.. it should.. but people like to forget that.. and I was bored and felt like pointing it out. I should mention I liked Little Big Planet, and loved it the little bit I have gotten to play it. Hell, this is the one game that would make me want to get a PS3. But user generated content...
