CVG comments on the New Halo Reach game due out soon:

Gaming Divisions

Why is it that most people support Premier League football teams as opposed to, League Two, say? Its because theyre the most exciting to watch. For the hardest of the hardcore thats you, right? a monthly scoring system is now applied to a Slayer or Team Slayer option, funnelling players into five...

So, I finished my PC Tech Support class not too long ago, at least the theory part, and now for 10 weeks on of the job training.

yay...

I make setting up computers fun by leaving little touches here and there. Most probably end users (corporate office movers and shakers) won't notice some of the extra things I do to their machines, and the rest...

something I used to be passionate about, holographic displays. how to light a pixel inside a volume without it and the wires, being so big. The best plan so far seems to be making a matrix of points in a space where two laser intersecting at that point, providing enough energy, makes the point light up. problem is building on that tiny scale,...

Drugs

What if drugs were legal?

It is a show I watched (watching), and it adds another side to a problem I've been discussing recently.

Why are commercial drugs such a problem for people? they can't afford what they need, they don't know what they need and how much, and doctors have serious problems figuring it out for them. Too often doctors tell people what...

Activision and Bungie sitting in a tree


Yes it makes me sick, but at least there are MUCH better off than they were sitting under the Microsoft skirt getting all green and rancid like Rare and Lionhead. That is to say, Bungie needs to be set free, because there's still life enough left in them for there to be games made that can change the...

Noticed this on Daily Planet today. MMMMMM, I never liked scrubbing anyway. Put this on my dishes and cookware and my life will be fabulous.

Plus I like that coating seeds with it makes them grow into healthier plants. This is good for reducing growth chemicals but also might allow plants to grow hardier in places where they might have had trouble before.

New Xbox 360 demo for Split / Second

I like. But it feels too dirty.. too heavy.. too slow. I can't compete with Burnout.

It feels like a Wii game with a budget big enough to put it on systems where it doesn't belong. Not for the simplistic game play that doesn't really appeal by itself. The appeal is only in that it does do...

i know.. it is blasphemy.. but even asa montrealer and member of a hockey fanatic family.. it never appealed to me as a sport, as entertinament on TV or in games.

but what with the winter olympics, and stanley cup playoffs all over TV recently.. I occurred to me to ask why it was that Japan hasn't produced a notable Hockey anime.

Doomed to...

Can Bungie rival Crytek? Epic and Valve

And I mean on PC platform specifically not just Xbox.

I mean I look at those kinds of pictures, and played the games (except ODST) and can'r help but wonder what they could have accomplished had Microsoft taken them and the Xbox 360 seriously. Reach is going to be nuts, they had me at Jetpacks.

happy earth day!

or rather release of Avatar bd day!


how to celebrate it thought when I want the 3D version? no point in owning it twice.. when I've seen it several times already.

the worse part is that since it was released there have been interesting things done in 3D that don't focus on the CG part being in 3D but do more for...
