Originally posted by MMHEL nice idea i buy if it was cheaper then the actual models. In MTGO the pricing is identical for the real and virtual cards but everything else is free. In theory you can play for years having only bought a starter pack.…

Okay perhaps I can salvage this thread. Here is some semi-fresh blog posting on the story. Hope this hasn't already been posted as well. http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/games/archives/2005/06/09/chinese_gamer_sentenced_to_life_for_stabbing_a_player_wh…

Damn, didn't see it. Sorry guys. Dupe.

I totally agree with you man. I could not care less about other player's postion in the game as well. I still don't see how you "win" at a MMOG which a lot of people seem to be harping on. As long as I can play the game the way I like to (levelli…

I'm glad SOE have made this move and I'm not at all surprised by it. I now look forward to seeing the results of this "experiment". I'm also curious how having trading and non-trading servers will pan out. I don't think this will work as people o…

Originally posted by Owyn The reason that the buying of these items creates an unfair advantage is simple: it's because the action is against the rules of the game. And will therefore only be used by unscrupulous players who don't mind cheating (de…

Originally posted by Obake http://www.catholic-pages.com/grabbag/malachy.aspAccording to the prophecies of Saint Malachy two more Popes will be elected before armageddon. Armageddon came out in '98. I guess he was off by a couple.

Great news. If this case had gotten anywhere it would have set a terrible precedent. I'm glad the judge showed some common sense. Hooray!

Very interesting thread and many good points have been brought up. I know some are sick of this topic but I find it quite interesting and I'm enjoying learning what people's feelings are on the matter. Originally posted by pegleg ... THe two ki…

Fact is IGE is just providing a service some gamers are interested in. Instead of blaming IGE or Ebay or whomever, game developers should just accept the fact that some people want to trade items and design with that in mind. In fact, I've mention…

I hope for the sake of the kids that he hasn't been molesting them but I doubt it. I don't buy his whole "I'm just a kid" routine. What more does this guy have to do to look like a pedophile. He admits sleeping with kids. His room's walls are p…

I think player generated content is the way of the future. If you check out what people are doing in SecondLife you will be amazed. I'm actually surprised that current MMORPG's don't seem to have leveraged their player's creativity. I think the f…

Originally posted by methane47 Yeah the reason why you shouldn't learn Java first is because Java immo was a language that was made so that it would be easier for C/C++ programmers to make programs so they took out all the speed of C and added in a …

I still reccommend you start with Java rather than C or C++. Once you take your first steps with Java, you'll be in a good position to take your next steps with C++. The major difference between Java And C++ is the memory and pointer management. …

Buy some books and start working on some small project. I recommend you start with Java as it is easier to learn then C++. There is obviously also plenty of info on the internet.

I'm going to attempt to get things back on topic by addressing the in-game advertising topic. Unfortunately I believe it's a trend that's here to stay and if anything will probably only increase. There won't be a reduction in price based on the …

If you take a look at http://www.echoecho.com/ it provise the following percentages: 54% 1024x768 28% 800x600 10% 1280x1024 So I would probably target the 54% but still make it legible for the 28%. Of couse it also makes a difference the market y…

I use AVG. It's free for personal use and seems to work fairly well.

Very interesting story indeed. You really can't trust anything anymore you see (or don't see) in the old media. No wonder they are so against bloggers. Cause that is something they can't control and supress. Case in point that Gannon story tha…

Interesting analogy. Personally I hope they both keep doing well. Competition and variety can only be good for consumers. This also brings to mind a lot of the recent threads dealing with creating the perfect MMORPG. Of course they should all be…
