    What's Your View on Animal Rights?

    My position is that I will be happy to grant animals the same rights as humans when they stand up and ask for them. Until then, humans just need to learn they do not have the right to abuse animals.

    New Tech Transforms Sound Into Electricity

    Uhh, hi. Sound Engineer and Electrical engineer here. I just wanted to clarify some of your erroneous statements, both with this reply, and your original post linking to Wikipedia. EVERY transducer is a "normal microphone" by virtue of the fact that it is a device that converts sound into...

    This is why I own and maintain as many old consoles and games as I can.

    600 Points, No Deaths, One Rescued Princess

    It was in the game design that you could run over a one-block-wide gap while holding B.

    Where does the best music come from?

    It comes from taking someone else's ideas and doing something different with it. EDIT: Well I suppose that's more where the truly innovative music comes from. I believe that great music comes from everywhere, the nexus of great music just changes from year to year. Right now, I feel that a...

    The Big Picture: Going Green: Part I

    Parallax? As an aside, H.E.A.T. in my city stands for "Help Eliminate Auto Theft"

    What lucky video game adaptation would you like Uwe Boll to direct next?

    I haven't seen Postal myself, but wasn't it just, "America is fucking crazy. Here, let me show you..."?

    What lucky video game adaptation would you like Uwe Boll to direct next?

    Halo! He couldn't possibly make it any worse than DOOM.

    PC Games of the Ages.

    Old PC games I still love, eh? Well, for one, ScummVM has made my life glorious ever since I discovered it and have been able to play all of my LucasArts Adventure Games again. The Dig, Full Throttle, and the first 3 Monkey Island games... I'm currently working on tweaking DosBox so that I...

    Your most recent/favorite "WHY WILL YOU NOT DIE!?" moment?

    Just beat Metroid Fusion, so just about all of those bosses: Security Box X, Nightmare X, Mecha-Spider X, all need PIN-POINT precision for missile shots. Meta Ridley X, surprisingly, was not that difficult; just laid about 70-odd missles while soaking damage. Can't think of a favorite...

    does natural talent exsist?

    There are two points I want to make: 1) It's interesting to see so many people conflating talent with skill. So you've been painting for 20 years; you have developed 20 years of painting skills. You cannot develop talent. 2) Talent, as I see it, is merely an adjustment of the entry...

    Sega Hopes You Still Love Old-Fashioned Sonic

    I sure do love the Old Sonic, that's why I haven't bought any Sonic game since Sonic Adventure 2 for the Dreamcast! My complaints, as always, are these: - Controlling Sonic 3rd-person in a 3D environment is about as effective, and enjoyable as trying to ride a Razor scooter along the median...

    R18+ Opponent Accuses Gamers of Using Propaganda in Rating Debate

    Gotta love the self-defeating rhetoric and justifications people like this woman use. As others have mentioned, she is basically arguing that we need to keep R18+ games out of Australia because children have already gained access to R18+ content in movies and magazines. Allowing R18+ games...
