    An asteroid will kill us in 2036

    Is that 2038 problem anything like the y2k bug? I'm curious because this is the first I've heard of it. I'm going to test this experimentally. I'm off to set my pc's year calander to 2038. If I'm not back in 10 minutes, you'll know we're all doomed.

    New Oblivion PS3 Screens + Info

    What'd be really sweet would be if they allowed the use of end user mods. Without the ability to fix the borked out of the box leveling system, I likely would've lost interest in Oblivion after ~10 hours, too. It would've been a pretty, but stupid, experience. Since every ps3 has a...

    Your greatest in-game challenge?

    Playing "Hunt the Pixel" in graphic adventures is a close second. My greatest challenge was trying to puzzle out exactly what text commands and text nouns the game creator wanted me to type in to get the result I wanted in all those infernal Infocom games. Never finished a single one, either.

    Oblivion on 360 gets another patch thanks to PS3 development.

    Perhaps I've misunderstood something. It's been my understanding that the ps3's non-unified memory divides the total in half for all practical purposes. (256 meg system ram and 256 RSX ram.) So if the gameworld data has to fit in 256 megs, wouldn't that put a stricter limit on how much can be...

    Yes, if these are the same figures I saw earlier it's for all of MS's entertainment division.

    Sony Game Division Earnings, Q3 FY06

    Dude, it's kinda hard to debate you when the stuff you're saying is so incoherant that no one can even be sure what subject you're talking about. On the plus side, that rant did make the thread slightly more interesting, in a morbid fascination sort of way. Now, on the thread topic...

    V-day has arrived

    Time to fess up. Who's got Vista?

    Creative bypasses Vista and enables Hardwaresound

    otoh, some of us have. I bought an Audigy near launch. It took literally a year and half for the drivers to attain non-suck status. That's why Sugarcoat's original statement ("always had very decent driver support") struck me as a stunner. I figured he probably wasn't into things at that...

    Just when I thought I'd seen it all. Wow... just... wow. :shock:

    Sony NDA prohibits developers opinions

    One reaction I get is to wonder, "What are they trying to hide?" But I'm the suspicious type so of course I'll wonder that. :lol: Stifling developers from saying anything at all strikes me as being more then just a bit over the top. Is it really necessary to be this drastic? :???:

    MS: "Record Revenues" thanks to 360

    That'd make sense... But I doubt the new 120 gig will cost less when it's first launched than the pro costs now. My prediction: they'll drop the price of a box with the current size hd by a hundred bucks and introduce the 120 gig for the current pro price.
