I see. I know a friend that uses it daily and has said it has acted a bit strange a few times, but I wasn't aware it was that bad.
I'm not sure it is broken as much as it is just lacking. It definitely is lacking some critical apps and I would definitely like to see a more integrated facebook experience (though I don't really hate the facebook app. I actually like it better than the android one).
Agreed. I meant more that there is generally a lot more grinding in MMO's.
I have to disagree with most of the points you make. You seem to have played Skyrim as if it were a list of tasks in a vacuum completely devoid of context and story. I, and I would imagine many other people, play games not just to complete meaningless virtual tasks in order to claim a reward, but to take part in a…
I played it for quite a bit when it first came out. Then again when mines of moria hit (which was a great expansion IMO). Thought it was certainly better than WoW as well. And the lore/story behind it made it even better. I tried it again when it went F2P, but didn't really like the system.
That explains why dubstep makes me want to rip my hair out!
I'm 22 and remember it quite well. The noise it made when it connected will forever be etched in my memory. I even remember when we first got cable.
The background of the title image just looks like the legs of a half-buried giant spider to me. Perhaps it has something to do with playing Skyrim today...
I really want this phone. And have wanted this phone for a long time. But I am tied to Verizon. Yes, it is great that this phone costs $0 if I could switch! Hooray! But I can't. And, I would guess, a lot of people can't just see a beautiful phone and simply switch carriers. This is the problem I have with phones. It…
Why exactly are they looking at mummies to find why we are fat now? Do they have some reason to believe that people in ancient times would have been able to eat and behave like we do and not be fat?
Indeed. Depending on the pay/terms of this, I don't see it as any different than those sign-spinning people, or anyone else that serves as walking advertisement. Not to mention booth-babes, whom, one could claim, companies pay to be ogled.
Search is one of the charms on the right. I would be willing to bet there is also some sort of keystroke that will start up search—pretty sure that they are pushing it way more than they have in previous versions of windows.
Absolutely. I was on the verge of laughing (happily) throughout the entire video—Jörg is too happy and awesome to not make you smile.
Perhaps it is due to my enjoyment of the n64 pod racing game, but the pod racing looks like it could actually be enjoyable. That said, this should really not be a game. Cut off all the different mini-games and sell them as such through the arcade. Or just pick one and actually make it good (except the dancing one).
I love my Zune HD. Was very happy when they went that direction with wp7 (software) but people forget what a nice piece of hardware the HD is. Was very sad when they killed it. I have no idea what I am going to do when mine dies—just not have a PMP anymore, probably.
Very interesting take. I'm a wp7 user, so it was instantly familiar to me. I quite like it, particularly if you were going to market yourself as a wp7 dev.
Not bad. I would suggest a smaller image tiled for the background, though, as I saw some lag in loading the current one (my work connection is rather slow, so it is probably not a big issue). I use [www.stripegenerator.com] for easy striped backgrounds.
Many thanks. I started more from the design side and learned the development out of necessity, so jQuery is a wonderful thing for me. Fancybox is probably the easiest to use of the lightbox-style plug-ins—great tool.
I am self-taught and know where you are coming from. Once you learn it though, it is a great language (and really pretty easy, imo). I would be happy to help if you ever need it—just shoot me an email (found on the site). I was lucky enough to find someone that would look over my code and offer advice when I first…
