Captain Mal and the crew of Serenity need your help to stay flying.
We are looking to push the envelope of episodic television by offering Season Two of Firefly in a groundbreaking new format. Each episode (or the entire season) would be made available for purchase in Standard or Hi-Definition.
It's possible that subscribers may choose one of three playback options; monthly DVD deliveries, TV On-Demand using your cable or satellite provider, or computer viewing via Streaming Download.
It's also possible that a box set of DVD's would be available at the end of the season.
In order for our plan to be successful, we need to take stock of the browncoat recruits that support our cause. It will only take a minute, is strictly confidential, and each profile will take us one step closer to victory!

Fellow browncoats! Support a just cause, it only takes a few seconds. Salute!
To the mods: I sincerely hope this is within forum rules. Its just a heads-up to those fans of Firefly that frequent the
forums here. Heh, you may even be fellow browncoats yourselves.

Place your bets, ladies and gents! Round 1 goes to the hackers. Round 2... Ding! Ding!
LOL! Just something I had to share. Details below.

AACS confirms hacks on high-definition DVD playersA consortium of movie studios and technology companies backing the encryption system for high-definition DVDs on Thursday confirmed that hackers have stolen "title keys" and used them to decrypt high-definition DVDs through flaws in DVD player software.
Both the title keys and a number of decrypted films have been posted on peer-to-peer Web sites for downloading and copying, a spokesman for the Advanced Access Content System (AACS) Licensing Authority said.
The large size of the files and the high cost of writable hi-def discs make large-scale copying of high-definition DVDs impractical, but the attacks on the new format echo the early days of illegal trafficking in music files, AACS spokesman Michael Ayers said on Thursday.
The hackers did not attack the AACS system itself, but stole the keys as they were exchanged between the DVD and the player to strip the encryption from the film.
The confirmation of the attack comes about a month after a hacker called Muslix64 described in an online posting how he defeated the encryption system by using DVD player software.
:cool:

Agree with the p.o.v that third-person just works great in a survival horror setting. Get it?
I really hope that the good devs at Obsidian, ramp up the scares on this one.
It has to be. Cause in space no-one can hear you scream. Also its [tm]Aliens[/tm].

Check it out. LOL!

What I like in a villian, is figuring out his angle. He/she/it has to be mysterious.
The conflict needs to be personal, more than your basic good and evil or black and white.
Sounds like a clish

A good crpg needs good villians, these guys however don't sound that great.
Quite generic in fact.

Telling us about it now, before the game is even releseased is lame as well.
-- It must be some new pathetic form of hype-building. LOL

Informative article on ATARI's financial position.
In addition, Atari's sales and marketing VP Nique Fajors told Next-Gen recently that the firm aims to become more consumer-friendly: "This industry has been taking consumers for granted for way too long," he said. -
Welcome to this brave new world, of EA and XBox ...
All your crpg are belong to us...

About "Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay" - if you haven't played it yet I envy you. Greatly ties in to the movies and actually expands on the mythos of the Riddick universe. Good game period.
You envy someone for not playing a good game??
Its all about the expectation. Meaning that I have completed the game already, someone else not having played it yet, has a good game to look forward to.
Semantics, your friend.
kthxbye.

Lionheart : bleh : Even if you paid me, I wouldn't want to play it.
A big dissapointment. I mean Black Isle, the Special - system, the alternate-renaissance setting, - where did it all go so horribly wrong?
Nevermind, I know.
Hiring a novice console development studio, primarily known for arcadey action games to create a CRPG.
I wonder whoever came up with that bright idea? :sarcasm:

Three passions have governed my life:
The longings for love, the search for knowledge,
And unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.
Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.
With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of people.
I have wished to know why the stars shine.
Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
But always pity brought me back to earth;
Cries of pain reverberated in my heart
Of children in famine, of victims tortured
And of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
And I too suffer.
This has been my life; I found it worth living. - Bertrand Russell

*jumps into thread*
Preamble: I am not a fan of either "next-gen" console.
Microsofts' or Sony's.
Saying that, neither am I a PC 'elitist' (whatever that means).
IOW, this is objective info. Make of it what you will.
Came across this article which may be of concern to those interested in Sony's PS3.
Cell processor reliability details may surprise youAs Sony's PlayStation 3 console nears its official release, more focus has turned to the technical wizardry that lays inside the actual machine. The Cell processor, developed by IBM, Sony and Toshiba, has gained a great deal of attention over the last year. In an interview with Electronic News however, IBM vice president of Semiconductor and Technology Services Tom Reeves says that his company is lucky if it can get 10% to 20% yields on the Cell processor.
The Cell processor is so complex that IBM even accepts chips that have only four out of the eight cores working. Not all cores end up functional says Reeves. In regards to why the yields are so low, Reeves says "[defects becomes a bigger problem the bigger the chip is. With chips that are one-by-one and silicon germanium, we can get yields of 95 percent. With a chip like the Cell processor, you

Think about it like this, at least your thread got more replies than mine.

How is making a boatload money sad?
Well, not sad per se, just pointing that Bethesda's focus is in making maximum sales instead of on making a great Fallout. imho.
In the end whatever game they make, let us hope it has some virtue in being called "Fallout 3".
We all know the fallout name has great resonance with many gamers.

:groan:
They are really stupid if they think the Fallout fanbase just consists of people who frequent the NMA site.
On the other hand it probably won't matter seeing as its Bethesda. Masters at hype and
soil eroding graphics.
If Oblivion sales are anything to go by; plus FOO3 being made for console.
The same people that bought Oblivion will probably buy FOO(blivion)3 and make Bethesda a boatload of money.
And that is the bottomline.
Sad but true.

Saw this linked over at NMA, and thought it a good idea to post it here.
Essentially a tribute article of sorts from a gaming site called "Next-Generation".
Ironically the site name is fitting.
The parts about Looking Glass and especially BIS may be of interest, as I know many ex-BIS forumites dwell here.
Its weird ... and wonderful to think that most of my favourite games were created by BIS and Looking Glass.

It has everything that made Silent Assassin great, and a few more things.
Good stuff.

I thought Slipknot was kinda original back with their first release. Not so good later on.
Most of these bands are labelled nu-metal (limp-bizkit, korn, etc.) and sound totally different from each other.
Genre labels usually were just a tool for music fans to quickly hone in on stuff
to their taste. But nowadays I find it quite bothersome (genre-labels that is)...
nu-metal was (still is?) actually a degoratory term used by "real" metalheads to describe music thought as inferior or crappy.
Mostly music from the U.S. Though alot of euro bands are 'nu-metal' and some old-school bands sound decidedly nu-metallish. As well as being called sell-outs.
I'm more into punk and old-school crap myself. Danzig, Misfits, RATM etc.
But if you like loud and heavy music check out some of these fine euro outfits. Hypocrisy, Dimmu Borgir, In Flames
