I'll believe that when I see it.

I did not know that. Who bought them up? And who did make Diablo? Because I thought Diablo was Blizzard through and through. Somehow I can't see the relationship to the old SNES/Arcade Alien vs Predator dynamic. Which AvP influence went into Starcraft?

If the game is good, I'll get it. It could be called WER@#$%2we and I wouldn't care.

Look around at reality Hades. The places that have problems with human rights typically aren't the places that have basic needs being met. If people are starving to death and not having their basic needs met, they aren't going to be too concerned with their own human rights, or the human rights of another person. They're going to be concerned with living. Maybe you would condemn yourself to death in this case, but I doubt it. It doesn't matter if you think survival is meaningless if it comes at the cost of dehumanizing another. It's not the way the world works. It's easy to tell people to not worry about their own survival, when you don't have to worry about your survival either. You might as well have just said "Let them eat cake."

Well, laughing typically comes immediately after murder.

It's the thing to do!

Yes.

It is fun. If 4 of us wanted to game, it'd be interesting. Much more fun when we can all laugh at my mistakes.

At least you didn't spell Yale with a 6.

I never played Dawn of War. I enjoyed it. Though it's certainly a much faster pace than Combat Mission or Close Combat. I was usually playing against better players though, so it made it a bit less fun. Though somehow I still managed to usually "win" in the amount of kills that I can get in the 4 player games (2vs2). Rockets are a bit too useful IMO. I made a wonderful flank with a Panther behind 3 rocket trucks, and they just turned their rockets and fired some close range salvos at me and killed me. I was swearing.

The other joke is that my version is obsolete, so I need to redownload the 1.61 GB file. But after that, I'm running you over with Tiger Tanks.

Samwise before he was Samwise!

I'd rather drive over you with Tiger Tanks!

I have the beta... >.> <.<

Nah, it sounds like teams can negotiate directly with the Russian teams to make an arrangement. TSN mentions Pittsburgh is doing this for Malkin.

Hah! I have played that too with good ol

Itanium was targeted at a very different market segment (although it may not have started life that way). The mid-range and high-end server market had been using 64-bit machines for ages: Sun Ultra SPARC, IBM P-series, DEC Alpha etc. Itanium was Intel/HP's attempt to play in this segment. Machines built around these processors usually had Multi-Chip Modules (in which each chip is sometimes multi-core e.g. IBM Power5), fancy interconnection networks (e.g. Alpha), huge caches (20-30MB is not uncommon on an Itanium system), loads of memory bandwidth, NUMA, etc. etc. However, these servers were usually too expensive for small businesses. Therefore, Intel had always had a market for the Xeon line: relatively low-end 32-bit server parts. AMD was technically the first to step up the ante in this particular low-end server segment and introduce the Opteron as the first 64-bit x86 server processor. Intel's "reply" to this was the 64-bit Xeon, not the Itanium. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I know the Itanium wasn't meant to compete with AMD's 64-bit solution. I was unaware that the Xeon was an attempt to "reply" to the Opteron though.

Because the person would have already played through it and experienced all this stuff.

Yeah, the GM goals are retarded. Sorry owner, for netting you millions in playoff revenue and giving you the most successful team in recent history. Sucks to be you.

I don't recall being Swedish "

No Vic 20 for me. I was 4 when I was playing on the Apple ][e.

I preferred AMD's approach as it would be easier to integrate 64-bit chips, as they still had excellent 32-bit support. Given the installed base of 32-bit architecture, it's not surprising it has not been a speedy transition to 64-bit.

If you really were old, you'd have cited CGA. I remember playing Test Drive a long time ago. Everybody always picked the Ferrari Testarossa because it had the highest top speed, but I was the first to beat it in the Lotus Turbo Esprit And let's not forget the green monochrome of the early Apple ][e. I was a big fan of Rescue Raiders. Choplifter eat your heart out.

Intels solution was the Itanium was it not?

It may have something to do with these other people not being you. FTR I don't do speed runs either.
