| Google Print | It is here. This is exactly the thing that I have been waiting for since I hit the web back in '92. Human knowledge, searchable. All the books in all the libraries can be culled for knowledge from this quaint little electronic device. I began h... |

| Make Fun of My Website Layout! | Seriously... what do you think about human factors (readability, layout, whatever) of my webpage? Does this display well at your screen resolution? Does your browser appear to parse the css properly? |

| Question for those who live in the Austin area: | I'm attending the Austin Game Conference, and driving myself down there. Since I'll have a car, it will be possible to scrimp on hotel costs by staying a few miles outside of downtown. Is there public (free or otherwise) parking available in... |

| Nintendo DS Game Design | What an enigmatic device. Forget the (for now) nebulous hardware specs (RAM and processor capability, backwards compatibility, etc.); concentrate one what is really new. Two screens... What sorts of games will this help? Will any new genres... |

| Pirates vs. Ninjas Comic Strip | Saw this on pvponline. It goes on for 5 panels, be sure to hit next! This post might seem completely off-topic (even for the lounge), but many here will know why this is getting posted... [edited by - SteevR on November 21, 2003... |

| The Real Software Pirates | In an effort to maintain gainful employment in my economically depressed locality, I have recently added IT Training courses on top of my college education. The instructor (who makes a few hundred thousand a year from instruction/her personal... |

| Any Gundam fans? | I was about 4 or 5 when I first saw a pirated VHS tape of Mobile Suit Gundam. I remember it clearly; it was my first exposure to japanese language and culture, as well as probably the most violent thing I had ever seen; I recall an explosion goes of... |

| NaNoWriMo - how did you go? | I got as far as considering it, researching the information necessary to get the details in the ballpark (the concept was a somewhat hardcore variety of SF), and writing a 1500 word detailed outline. I even figured out what plot points needed to go... |

| Victory by proxy - How to make satisfying? (RPG-like) | In such situations, I feel the most satisfaction as a player if my actions directly contributed to the NPC's success. Laying down covering fire, conducting a diversionary attack or other operation, having procured the explosives, or having planned t... |

| Revelation (My Story, what do you think?) | Cutscenes aren't gameplay. They rip the player out of gameplay. Not to mention the combonatorial problem producing all those slightly different cutscenes based on character and hinted other factors. Offering a "single reason" for the charac... |

| Revelation (My Story, what do you think?) | So, all of that to justify a shooter? How can you make all of that directly tie into gameplay? If being on a certain side gives you a special ability or weapon, how does this tie into the story at large? Does this tie into level design? ... |

| What makes a likeable character? | The original Ghost Recon for the PC is an outdoor FPS. What sets it apart in terms of gameplay is the ability to jump between the 7 soldiers in your squad (the sequel and I believe the XBox version of the original removed this ability). Whilst cont... |

| Google Print | Points both taken. I do believe that Google's digital copies of rare documents should be dispersed (at their expense) to as many different access points as is practicable. As to an attack on Google's infrastructure in the digital realm... I... |

| 3d buzz opengl video tutorials?? | A friend of mine bought them, and they were the best standalone tutorials I have ever seen- but in value for the money, a copy of the redbook and some shader tutorials has more information. I suppose since I haven't been a beginner for almost ten ye... |

| What makes a likeable character? | I would say that one reason Doom3 failed as a game/story was the absolute lack of interaction between either component of the product. Either you are playing a shooter/survival horror title, or you are watching a (short) movie. The disconnect... |
