Actually, I paid five bucks for it, and afterwards I wanted my money back.
As for the OCD goals, I hit more than half of them on my first (and only) play through. The game was trivially easy, I'm afraid.
It sucks for a lot of reasons, replay-value is only one of them (although it is the main one, IMO).
And I can only assume you despise movies and books too which tend to have no "replay value" either, and which also only deliver a few hours of enjoyment for the cost...
Not necessarily, but in general, yes. If it's only worth watching once, then it's probably a poor film. If it's only worth reading once, then it's probably a poor book.
Think of your favorite movies. Do you watch them again? Do you own them on DVD? Do you buy movies on DVD that you don't want to watch more than once? Why not?
Same basic principle at work here. Replay-value is an important part of a purchase decision. I don't buy DVD's until I've seen the movie already, why would video games be any different?
Assuming it's in enough cars, you could do it with a mesh-network topology. It'd probably require special software on each device to work that way though.
No, he's right. WoG sucked.
If I can play and beat the game in three hours, and it has no replay value, then it sucks.
There is more to this story.
foxit is terrible these days.. it can't embed correctly to save its life, its slow, getting bloated and the installer likes to install toolbars and crap. I loved it 2 years ago.. not so much now.
haha.. i was wondering the same thing.. However, i was also saddened by the fact it is no longer common knowledge that people know the sun rises on the east and sets in the west
Correction, I meant dark matter, dark energy. My bad.
The data from WMAP indicates that we're living in a Big Freeze universe. Although it's still possible that enough dark energy may exist to reverse it, it seems unlikely.
If you guys are comfortable letting Apple or anyone else have this, it's just because your brain hasn't digested what it means yet. Don't worry, wait for the first few scandals. It will take a few years - maybe long enough for every asshole company to start doing this. But it will get easier to understand.
I voluntarily send my location to Google every 2 hours (via Latitude). Why should I care if they know where I am? I mean, what exactly are you, some kind of spy?
Nobody cares where *you* are. You're just not that important. Sorry to bust your ego-bubble.
They only really care where people are in aggregate. That information is far more useful.
And if where you are does actually matter, then *turn it off*. Simple enough to do, really.
If the data sent is more than one packet, I'd be shocked.
Not. Eventually the universe will run down too.
Hackers often target hotel pbx systems to call rooms and "confirm" credit cards with people staying there.. Its one of those big issues you never hear about until someone is caught and its easily done since 99% of the hotel rooms don't offer any caller-id functionality. So if you get a call while in a room to confirm your credit card, just ask to go downstairs and confirm at desk.
Stand alone blu-ray players can be had for 100 bucks, no need to use an Xbox for that anymore.. Not to mention i hope blu-ray is shortlived and download/streaming media continues to improve a-la netflix so on and so forth. XBL with zune mp 1080p with 5.1 is amazingly good and can only get better.
The problem with nuclear power is it doesn't solve anything. It still ties you to federal and corporate interests. Solar and wind power can free you from both. If every new home in the US was mandated to be built with solar shingles we probably wouldn't have this discussions
Don't compare floating point numbers solely for equality.
