  1. Heheh, I'm in a bit of a crunch at the moment, and my facial hair is definitely thicker than normal I liked how the EA University Liasion opened up his speech at my University: "We turn pizza and pop into video games."
  2. Hehe. 1 hour no matter what, win or lose Well, I guess you could win it in less time.
  3. IIRC Mars has ice caps that would be useful for oxygen and water. I believe the moon also has water at its poles.
  4. All of the RPG games that I play.
  5. The combined mass of our asteroid belt is less than the mass of our moon. I remember thinking the same thing as you with respect to the Asteroid belt's usefulness, but I did a report on colonizing the solar system in one of my Astronomy classes and it was quite an eye opener. Ceres is the largest asteroid, and it has a mass less than 1% of the moon. IIRC the numbers indicate that the combined mass is about 1/30 of our moon.
  6. But evil IS good for hire...isn't it?
  7. I enjoyed Terminator 3. It was on TV just the other day and I watched it with my roommate. Good fun.
  8. Looking forward to it. I like the fact that the toolset is less "rigid" in its interface.
  9. I'd say the limit of n, as n -> infinity amount of magic.
  10. That's the big thing. I think the only reason why we think the older games are longer is a combination of no saving, in addition to being poorer game players. I mean, if you think about it, all of the Mario games for the NES were made to be beaten in a single sitting. In fact, most NES games were made to be beaten in a single sitting, unless it was a bigger game that had a battery for saving the game. I don't consider games that can be beaten in a single sitting to be "long" games.
  11. Didn't feel like going for the Quad Core
  12. No they weren't.
  13. Aren't you REplaying REmake? For the REumpteenth time? Which one does it remake? RE1?
  14. They've had no problems doing it for the past 20 years. Though with inflation it's actually gone down in price.
  15. So who is Tic Tac?
  16. If we get off the rock, where are we going to go? The closest star is over 4 light years away. And then we'd have to hope that there's a planet there that is habitable. Alpha Centauri A is at least the right type of star...though there's that annoying Alpha Centauri B that will likely screw things up. Not sure how many habitable planets a twin star system could have. Proxima Centauri is a little closer, but way too hot. We better figure out how to start warping Space Time. But to be honest, I think we'd have to learn how to terraform a planet like Venus first. This way if we go somewhere and there's a planet that is close to what we need, we can at least do something with it. I don't see us colonizing other worlds anytime soon though. At best maybe using resources from off our planet.
  17. I'm pretty sure that's the case. Even then, people always talk about how it is possible to beat the game in a ridiculously short period of time if they know where they are going.
  18. Not too much of a fan of Mr. Wayne. I love all of Clint's Spaghetti Westerns though.
  19. NHL

  20. Survival of the species. We learn things from our experiences (or the experiences of others), and we learn what causes us danger/harm. It's what tells the deer to run at the sight of a human these days. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's never a good thing to have to be checking over your shoulder. Yes, it's survival of the species and all that jazz....but it's not a good thing. Either it's not good because you're stereotyping a race, or it's not good because there is a threat, and being threatened is never good.
  21. I'd have to watch the movie again. I only remember the part where he tells him to go to Dagobah, and Han comes running through him.
  22. I multitask, and bounce back and forth. My CPU is a neural net processor...a learning computer
  23. Hahaha. that movie.
