50k residents? That's like trying to back up your raid array to a thumb drive.

All that backend stuff aside, even with a reason to fight - which most shooters do not have - the gameplay needs to be fun.

Blade Runner

Meh, StarCraft isn't exactly the bastion of sci-fi storytelling - its an amalgamation of cliches without a single original thought or idea.

From the TeamLiquid poll its clear that most people like the new Zerg units and are divided on the other two races. Personally, I think the warhound is the most pointless, and the battle helion is just a firebat you can't heal but can repair instead. The shredder looks badass but is also going to be OP as hell if the…

Tame shit.

Japanese designers taking liberties with the aesthetic quality of their females is almost irrelevant compared to the kind of liberties they take with physics and common sense.

The original did nothing for me. I hope this gets made just so I can watch some cg porn.

This is not what you asked for?

In Japan, everyone wants to be the little girl. No exceptions.

Good photography skills, and I like the Sunshine theme. The scenery is not that impressive, however.

I figured Section 8 and Global Agenda might be somewhat like Tribes and gave them a try. They were both crap. I don't have much faith in Hi-Rez even before the F2P decision, but what can you do. Not many other games let you shove a spinfusor disc up someone's ass in midair at 200mph while taunting them with shazbots.

Rammed twice huh.

You can't parallelize everything, which is why CPUs with monolithic cores will always exist. The GPU is not a replacement for the CPU, it's an optimization of the transistor budget available to chip designers.

Gizmodo is fairly obsessive about the iPhone and Apple in general. Shifting the threat to Microsoft makes them feel better when writing articles pitting one OS against another, because it simultaneously keeps Apple as the Gold Standard while rooting for some disruptive underdog. It also lets them talk about the big…

Memory erasing drugs are a pretty useful tool for governments to have. Makes the witness to crime and corruption disappear without making more people ask where the person went. Maybe this is what the holocaust deniers were smoking?

This is no different from using the discrete GPU to do the parallelizable code with CUDA or OpenCL on the desktop. The PS3 is annoying because it involves more juggling of data between heterogeneous cores.

The price itself or how they got it that low isn't very impressive, it's just the first attempt to sell a major new tablet at fair prices right out of the gate.

Or he can just, you know, get a smartphone and not get a data plan.

Maybe TortillaLover is Mexican and would like the option to vote for said Pedro.
