I agree but he may be right though not for the reasons stated. The case may be that the studio put so much on the line for Prometheus that lining up two films that could concievably fail with such high budgets could kill them in the long run. Similarities not withstanding, this reeks of a studio taking safer risks as…

I don't think it is illogical for an AI to strive to be humanesque or more importantly better than human. If mankind is a test measure in this case we have always strived for continual improvement over previous generations, likely because we are hardwired for a certain amount of individuality and must set ourselves…

FF Tactics: WOTL port for iOS.

You must whip the potatoes eyes! And serve them; mashed or fried!

"There was no way I was gonna walk around this place with my dork hanging out!"

To the best of my knowledge no japanese animators did HM. As if they aren't or haven't been horney enough already.

I was speaking more towards cinematic influence, I think if you did a poll of the filmakers involved in the clips included GITS would be in everyones vocabulary. I wasn't saying that Ol Spidey didn't do it, I was just stating that Ghost In The Shell popularized it to point it became as pervasive as it is today.

I would actually point to one of the oldest (if not the oldest) clip on the video, Ghost In The Shell. I think that iconic shot is responsible just about everything we see here, kind of like how North By Northwest dictated how airplanes chasing people would look for the next century and beyond.

There are actually quite a few reasons, the one stated previously about companies not wanting to indirrectly support a competitor is a big one but there is more.

I actually kind of disagree, as much as I cringe at collateral damage, it is apparent that many people in this mans life stood idle while he probably pulled shit like this whenever possible. Only this time he has everyones full attention. To paraphrase; it takes a village, or mob of rage bots.

Off hand it appears most of the skate shots are on the sticks so I don't even thing he used a match move system. Still cool none the less.

Agreed, although this just got released. I'm sure the blow back will be the fury of a hundred thousand badgers armed to the teeth with katanas and shotguns.

To quote Gary Oldman ala Leon: "EVERYONE!"

But they are ahead of the curve considering that they already have in house coders who know their way around the system; why would you put that much in the way of resources towards such a small section of the market if you didn't believe that one day they'd have an edge on the competition and not playing catch up? It…

Bin Laden held several degrees, one of them has been speculated as being in civil engineering, I doubt he'd be that inept with email. My guess is that this is a translation error if anything else, although I could be wrong. I don't have any grasp of Arabic so I can't point out any likely errors that could occur. It is…

I guess my basic point was that regardless of the specs, if a developer can provide a game on a particular platform to increase their market then they will.

And I suppose consoles allow for flexiblity?

I don't entirely agree that this is off topic as art and design are important in tech, plus I believe discussing art shouldn't be limited to people whom are enthusiasts as we very much need people outside of the know giving imput into this conversation. If more were included perhaps paintings like this wouldn't fetch…

In a world where a substantial portion of the planet believes that homosexuality is wrong and at times a sentence for death or worse; yeah I'd call that a smudge on your reputation regardless of what you personally believe. It would be wonderful if in the real world you could say "So who cares if someone thinks you…

Probably the only painting worth it's price, maybe.
