Civ 5 is pretty fun. I once conquered the entire world as China .... I got tired of the other civilizations' demands.

So how long before the powers that be decide it's time for government-run birth control?

Wasn't there a plotline in Half-life or Half-life 2 where the government took away people's ability to reproduce?

I think the worst thing is that the most populated areas are the least developed ones like Nigeria. But we can't do anything about. I'll just sit back and watch.

Road Rash! I still think they've gotta remake that. And Sonic the Hedgehog is one of the funnest most colorful games ever! Psi, I know it's probably not this, but talking of medieval-type games reminds me of Myth the Fallen Lords and Myth II: Soulblighter. They were released about 15 years...

There was a game called Castle, but that wasn't 3D. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castles_(video_game). Any of these? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Medieval_video_games

Sounds like it was 3D? Was it a medieval-type game with swords and shields and bows and arrows?

IGP could be very useful. Not for gamers like me, but for everyone else.

Intel integrated graphics indeed suck for games! And the folks at Future Shop and the like will try to tell you otherwise! I've never seen them offer anything better than NVIDIA or AMD's last-generation mid-range bargain!

At least they got Osama. We don't need people like that polluting the Earth ....

Finally! I've been wanting this since Windows 3.1!:D

I need to get MY hands on one of those!

Thanks for the tip. It's a good idea.:)

Has anyone else noticed Google Chrome is really picky about downloads? If it gets interrupted or sometimes even if you pause it, Chrome refuses to resume the download. I've been trying to download the latest Fedora and I've finally switched to Firefox!

That's what I do, gsouthee. I'ts probably the best way to go about this. It's very convenient!

I found this book on cross-platform coding: http://www.amazon.com/Cross-Platform-Programming-Development-Charles-River/dp/1584503793/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1314428604&sr=8-2. It's pretty detailed, but outdated (2005). It covers Windows, XBox, PS2, and Gamecube. It's still the best I've been able...

You used to be able to download the SDK here http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/power/index.html. They have done away with it, though. :(

Look what I found http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Cell-Processor-Graphics-Computation/dp/0136008860/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1314424966&sr=8-1. Information on cross-platform programming is scarce, but there are some nuggets floating around. The Cell IDE is linux-based, too!

Mine's Feb 7, in the dead of winter.

This reminds me. Wenesday was Team Fortress 2's birthday! People had party hats, and the powers-ups and ammo crates were cakes and presents. And you'd turn into confetti when you explode. That was pretty fun.
