Comment Re:Bullshit. (Score 1) 637

Damn how I wish I had more mod points left. On the face of it you sound like a hippy or possibly a conspiracy nut, but nothing could be closer to the truth. The world is broken and one day I'll have to stand before my children with just the shards of it all and try to explain to them what the whole use to look like.

Comment Re:Just kidding, folks. (Score 1) 139

Just some clever media sensationalism. See, people bears and other animals live in caves, coupled that to the renewed excitement in the media lately with the search for life on Mars and suddenly, almost subconsciously your mind makes some interesting connections when reading the clever headline. "7th Graders Find Large Hole On Mars" on the other hand sounds quite dull (Depending on your depth in the gutter...) .

Comment Re:Bandwidth is a killer (Score 1) 200

What you say about postage sized textures and bandwidth intensity is true. Also you make a good point about convincing people to wait for the plug in to download and all, BUT... I can think of one browser plug in based game that has had fantastic success so far. Take QuakeLive for instance. The only other thing to be said for QL maybe is that Quake was already a popular game to begin with. Will unknown games that are unproven but run with similar plug ins have similar success? Maybe Id Software will sell the plug in architecture in the same way that they license their 3D engines. Maybe they'll open source it altogether. Just a thought.
