TGC 2009: Highlights From the Programming Front What did the first day of the Game Tech and Programming track have to offer? Soup, cities, randomness and time. Permalink

Do I smell a 2009 release?

If you want to step to "50 cent", you're gonna have to thrown down some loot. The man doesn't get out of bed for less than a G. I suggest the amount of $10,000 and we'll hold and film the competition right here at the Themis office - Durham, NC.

Yes, that's exactly what M59 did. They would actually take a snap shop of your exact character model including armor and weapons you had equipped at the time. It was rather novel concept and I always had a great amount of reverence in the presence of these statues knowing the amount of time and...

I love it every time a MMO comes out with a feature and labels it as a "new" idea. Meridian 59, the first 3D graphical MMO, came out in 1996 with features such as: guild halls, guild hall raids, personal mailboxes, personal storage vaults, personal bank, guild storage boxes (guild bank)...

Howdy Folks, I'm the developer who wrote the Profile Module. I've looked into some of the reports here and it does seem there was a slight problem creating new profiles. Sometimes it's not easy being a programmer when things explode from a left out apostrophe. That doesn't happen when writing...

Yes indeed, what an awesome event! I'm envious of the entire experience except the part where the alien being pops out of the cloud of smoke. I'm pretty sure I would have ran away screaming like a little girl... Russ, I'm buying you a beer.
