5. Long Live Nintendo Jun 7, 2002, 23:33 Todd
 
As much as I hate their games being often marketed towards a younger crowd, I always thought Nintendo was the most "with it". They always seemed to grasp the concept of gameplay over graphics in my opinion. I never really tire of a good game of Super Smash Bros. Melee, Mario Bros are timeless classics, Metroid was awesome, Donkey Kong was cool...

News Comments > DOOM III Preview
18. Re: Slathering praise on like butter Jun 4, 2002, 15:44 Todd
 
...they leave Hitchcock, Lovecraft, and King far away on the left field. Doom III is neither a themed game nor it is an unbeaten compilation of renowned gaming components. And it is not a first-person shooter. It's a sheer revolution. A revolution far beyond the FPS genre, it would alter the entire computer games industry.

Indeed, Doom III isn't just a revolution in the games industry... it's a global revolution. This reporter expects Doom III to settle millenium-old conflicts and start new ones. Massive climate changes would not surprise me. Doom III is not just a game; it's an alternative energy source. Plants will cease to be dependent on the Sun; they will be fully sustainable through exposure to Doom III running on large monitors (I've dubbed this process "Doomosynthesis".)
LOL that has got to be the funniest thing I've heard all day

Try it on a TRUE hdtv not that compatible crap. At 1920 x 1080i it is breathtaking and a hell of a good time to play even for the non console fps fans like myself.
That would be the best way to view it but if you don't have an expensive progressive scan HDTV you aren't out of options. Check to see if your TV has support for s-video or component digital and get the best corresponding cable.

A Stihl chain saw that had cut halfway through his neck from behind was still in his hands, the switch locked open, according to police.

Awww... Died like a true Army of Darkness fan.

When my friend first got his license he almost got arrested for a broken light over the license plate at night. The reason was the DMV messed up and didn't properly put him on the officers' computer database that they search every time they pull people over, so it appeared as if he had no license. Its a rational explanation, but rather amusing.

Regarding spiders, there is a dead spider on the roof of my brother's apartment that his roommate squished up there with his fencing sword over a year ago. We are quite proud of that.

But regarding microwaves, every time I get an AOL CD I get the irresistable urge to "burn" my CDs! I pop them in for like 3 seconds and it is just amazing. Leaves a really bad smell though.
If you put metal in a microwave, it sends you back in time as seen in that one episode of Futurama.

I'd certainly consider a coffee mug, and the ability to pay for an ad-free BluesNews. After all I've been visiting for over a third of a decade.

I would fill out the form, but it requires mailing and email address and I see no privacy guarentee. I don't mean to sound paranoid but I get enough spam as it is.

I'm appalled they are taking their child's ability to hear. Imagine, the child may never hear music in their entire life.

Hmm... For those who do Everquest on PS2 how will they keep hardware upgraded years from now when Everquest may demand much higher system requirements? I mean compare Eq to when it was first released to now.

yeah, that guy who reached the end of the internet must have seen a lot of freaky shit - tentacle rape porn, fecal fetishes, gay porn, etc, etc.
LOL, that's what I immediately thought of when I saw that commercial. "You must be one sick mother fucka!" =)
That explains why he sounds so uneasy when he says "yeah, I finished it!"

Brilliant Digital CEO Kevin Bermeister says computers or Internet connections won't be used without their owners' permission...."This will be an opt-in program..."
There you go. Stop worrying.

Then again, Gator is an "opt in" program... as our many other "opt in" scumware utilities.

I prefer the originals but what is important here is that the directors themselves are the ones opting for the changes. No one made them do this, they were the ones who decided to do it.

21. more on Darwin Mar 25, 2002, 17:53 Todd
 
Todd, why don't you read up on Darwin before you start spouting this stuff, 'k? You seem to be lost on the subtleties (and no so subtleties) of natural selection.
Actually my science class just covered this, I'm not spouting. This was a critical part of the theory.
His theory was of natural selection. When he wrote about evolution there was little known about genes then. HIs theory was all about survival of the fittest, such as Hairy Animals would survive better in the cold then non hairy ones, and therefor the non hairy animals would die off, while the hairy ones flurished. I do agree with you though, that in order for the thumbs to mutate the gameboy generation would have to pass on its mutation to its offspring, and I highly doubt that this thumb mutation is a mutation at all.
Thats right, that is another important part of the theory. According to what my science class just covered, the two key things are natural selection which is what you pointed out, and random mutations which is what I initally mentioned.

12. Re: Thumbs and mutations Mar 25, 2002, 13:55 Todd
 
"The use of gadgets such as mobile phones and GameBoys has caused a physical mutation in young people's hands, according to a British Sunday newspaper."

physical mutation != genetic mutation

I agree that it's misleading (and misused) language, though.

Also according to Darwin (should you choose to believe him or not), mutations are caused randomly, not through extended use of something. So if our younger generation did indeed mutate this dextrous thumbs, then according to Darwin's theory it has nothing to do with the gameboy's and such and it simply occured by chance.
