Today marks the 30th anniversary of the death of Elvis Presley. It strikes me
watching footage of people standing on line at Graceland that Elvis' career has
now spanned a longer stretch since he has been dead than it did when he was
alive. I wonder if it's possible for an individual to become as famous and iconic
as that in this day and age? How famous? When your
full name
on the Wikipedia is disambiguated because of other things named for you, but
your entry can be found under your
first name, you're pretty darned famous. To commemorate, maybe I'll have a
fried peanut butter & banana sandwich, though I think I'll skip the Percocets.

And the NAACP falls silent.
/edit: If they were TRULY an organization that stands for what they CLAIM to stand for - wouldn't they hold a press conference and condone the actions of a football star? How atrocious his actions are, etc etc etc? - nah - that will never happen. That would make too much sense.

I've been trying to taunt him for the last 3 days over it, but he's not responding. i think he's in lala land.
I assumed you were just getting tired of me yamming on about it, and while I noticed, I'm not stopping, either...

my problem isn't so much that it'd be another shooter, but the motion sickness i get over the 1st person viewpoint. that'll keep me from playing the best of games.
Ah, well that's understandable.
I'm glad I've never suffered from that, but a friend of mine who does found that sitting further back from the screen helped a lot. Of course.. that's often more difficult to accomplish than it sounds depending on your setup, but in this case it would certainly be worth a try.
Actually.. in this case, renovating your whole frikkin' house would be worthwhile if that's what it took to be able to play it

Editx2: There is now a pre-load option over at Fileplanet. So this should see a wide release and not be exclusive: http://www.fileplanet.com/promotions/bioshock/
Editx3: Now, as of 2PM Pacific/5PM Eastern, the Shugashack link has been edited. It no longer states the demo will be out tomorrow, but "shortly."
WTF?

Pfft. Wimps. The original rubik's was easy. Now, the 4x4x4.. that was a pain.

yeah, I'm a get the glossy 'solve rubics cube' book, ignore it and use a screwdriver kinda person myself. Screwdriver can also be used to 'fix' the cube to confound nerdy friends.
i thought it was just a pretty shooter.
i may have to reconsider it after all.
Oh man.. and all along, I thought you were just taunting nin for kicks!
If you haven't actually played the demo, then you have no idea how much BioShock is going to rock. Definitely reconsider.
In fact, reconsider everything you've ever considered

Quickest way to 'fix' a rubix cube is to find the center cube that has the pop off top. Pop it off get a screwdriver and viola, fixed.
Along with the demo, apparently neither 2K nor Levine thought it would be useful to announce the above?
heheheh yeah, that is kind of a big deal. Was wondering how they were going to pull off the "need internet connection to activate" thing.
A couple people mentioned it would be nice on Steam.....who knows....
