  1. ... And what is this "players opting in and out" malarky?
  2. Curses!® You FLYING MENACES won't get away with this!
  3. As long as it doesn't start re-programming that nuclear plant in Ames ...
  4. Boothbabes in FO3 or Oblivion?
  5. Shader Model 4, too.
  6. It's the stealth commando spidey suit.
  7. Probably wasn't officially launched.
  8. What does Busuko mutate into?
  9. I missed it! :'(
  10. Mars has some water. Moon has none. Moon was a par of the Earth, until a big meteor knocked a big chunk into space, so the moon is just a large bit of basalt. Asteroids might have some minerals, but planets and moons would have more, e.g. Saturn's moon Titan and Jupiter's moon Europa would be good terraforming targets; the other moons would be terrific mines, like Io. Outland FTW
  11. That is a ferocious game-eating machine! No, wait GAME-EATING MACHINE!!!11!H/\x0rRzzzZ!11 And truly deserves its emboldened status. Except for the keyboard ... what happened there?
  12. Like using tripwire mines in Half-Life as set-once portable jump-assist launchpads to skip over most of Surface Tension and finish the game in half an hour?
  13. You play Xbox at work? Where do you work, a kindergarten?
  14. I have an old Compaq 80286 AT luggable with built-in 10" green phosphor monitor and keyboard with about 1MB RAM somewhere ...
  15. The White Album?
  16. They're fast, but they're noisy. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Performance > Noise <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Built for pimping out a rig: it's got a viewing window, too, so that you can watch the head dance maniacally across the (centre of the) platter.
  17. Hmmm. Adventure games cupboard is a bit bare. Have you played all the classics (early LA) ...? What do you like: point and clickie, 3d wandering ...
  18. Kill everyone that doesn't agree with me.
  19. hooded robes and customisable light-sabres fitted to an X wing
  20. One atom (are you sure it wasn't a tachyon?) is a slightly different scale to a ship. Off hand I think there are a few hundred atoms, at least, in a space shuttle. Lots of E required to accelerate that mass. Lots of E to accelerate the fuel required for the E to accelerate that mass. Etc. Best bet is someone pops out of a quantum singularity and offers it to humans, for free and for altruistic reasons. /fantasy.
  21. Um, forget teleportation, in our lifetime. (Even then, forget trying to convince me to do it.) Assuming it were possible to detect and record every atomic particle of a human being (which it isn't, according to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle), it would take more energy than (iirc) the sun discharges over several (hours / days / months - can't remember, but it was more than is feasible to store) and a lens with a focal length greater than the Earth's diameter to detect the particles which are sub-visible lengths of lightwave). Warp drive may be possible in a different form, certainly ain't going to get anything bigger than a small molecule to reach the speed of light, let alone a ship. Time Travel? :| But advanced science is no more explainable than magic, to someone unfamiliar with th technology. Try explaining how a refrigerator works to a medieval serf.
