Student arrested for making a map of his school

May 2nd 2007 6:24PM (Joystiq)
Yea... this is total bullshit.
I want the detective / administrator in charge fired. PRONTO. What a bunch of bull shit. What this kid does in his free time is none of their concern. And as started b4; kudos to him for learning a new skill. I've made plenty of CS:S maps base on real world locations... everyone has! It's the best way to get exp. with an editor; mapping something that is already layed out for you. And, they wont let him walk at graduation?!?!? WTF FOR!? I WANT ANSWERS. I'M FUCKING PISSED. FUCK YOU FORT BEND ISD.

Nvidia drivers leak potential PC Gears of War

Jan 8th 2007 6:08PM (Joystiq)
360 is cool. No doubt.
but, my $800 PC is faster.
sure, you wont have to "upgrade" your 360, but my CURRENT PC has more power than a 360... so bitching about a PC having to be upgraded down the road is a moot point. Furthermore, PC games look great on my 30 inch hdtv.(the desktop however, does not)
as far as mouse/kb vs controller... well, I'll leave that up to personal choice. And, "is GoW coming to the PC?" I just dunno. as other ppl have said, the site these drivers were pulled from has most likely modded the drivers(or whoever uploaded them did). So, this story doesn't hold much water as far as confirming or denying that the game will make it to pc. Anyone who know anything, knows that GoW is running on the Unreal2007 engine, further EPIC has traditionally been a PC game maker. You do the math. And, as far as a Vista only launch consider, that the 360's gfx card is mostly likely not DX10 compatable. As, the Unreal2007 engine was in dev. WELL before there were ever any dx10 gfx cards. If epic does fall into MSs pocket and release inreall 2007 / gears of war for vista, its not going to be because the games can't run on dx9, but because MS offers them HUGE incentives to do so. Thinka about it, EPIC will loose big if they release their game only for an OS a very small % of ppl are running. Combine that with the fact that there still are not any Vista drivers for the ONLY dx10 card on the market (the 8800).
Just something to chew over.

Ultra gamers make up 22% of the market

If you count hardware, id say in the quarter I've spent about $1200

this article is seriously fuxored.
"ultra gamer"!?? nix the "ultra" and it might be a valid article. does spending $60 on toilet paper in 6 months make me an "ultra crapper"?
