JRPGs seem to be lagging behind Anime, which went through this transition and is already out the other end. The traditional Anime girl was your "princess" type. Ornimental and useless except as a motivator and back-story piece for the male characters. (I always think of Lin MinMei in...

This guy has to be the most creative desperate-for-attention-MMO-gamer on the planet. But hes giving the mentally ill an undeserved reputation for being insane. No, that isn't a joke.

Muskrat Love. Definitely.

There's a great, and very accurate in terms of human nature, South park episode that explores that very fact. Its postulates a world without religion... and three warring camps that insist they know the only *right* way to be an atheist. Clarence Darrow said, "God made man in his image, and...

Touche and +1

What kind of intelligent god designs a sky-scraper by stacking a suspension bridge on its end?? That, my friends, is the human spine. Nature is highly creative... but in more of a hacker way then an engineering discipline.

Your right, it's fear, but not specifically religious fear. One of the primary forces in congress trying to lay governmental controls on videogames has been Senator Clinton of New York. She's not exactly beloved of the religious right, either.

There is a category of infantile atheist who is exactly the same as the infantile christian: someone who is SO insecure they *desperately* need to go around "proving" to everyone that their answer is the only right one. I call them the "religion of science crowd" and the science they so...

Precisely. Funcom doesn't understand that the most important part of an "Online Game Service" is that it is a *service*. They are still thinking like packaged game developers. They don't really want to be bothered with how people use the content, after they write it they want to wash their...

new to the online world, huh? This is just about the oldest and stalest trick in the troll handbook.

Btw... I don't get it... Why does it being a "real life female" matter or not? ( A ) Your not really sticking your dick in anything other then maybe your left hand and ( B ) Aren't there plenty of 'real life females' you'ld not want to do? I know there sure are oens I wouldn't...

It wasn't his job. The AoC GMs are volunteers. A very very bad idea... putting volunteers in charge of running your tens of millions of dollars project. But when you don't care enough abt your customers to do real customer support, its about the only option.

90% of all statistics are meaningless. This is one of them. What he does NOT say is what percentage of their dev costs *successful* games make. If a successful game makes, say 100 times the dev cost, then the three that hit more more then pay for your other unsuccessful tries. The film...

No... that's second life. You have to pay for it with $L though.

Oh come on. This is the oldest griefer game in the book, lure someone into a cyber-sex encounter and post it. I can't believe you guys are feeding this nonsense by giving it column inches. Yeah, can the GM cause he proved hes too damn stoopid to be trusted with GM powers. But lets all...
