LMAOOOOOOOO!

You should see it live. You can run up to someone
and stare them in the face REAL CLOSE and watch
all their facial expression. Hilarious! Very detailed.

Dude... in 25 years, these games will be SO good that going
to a movie would be moronic.

You could just event your very own, perfectly real life looking,
action flick every single night, when you log on to one of
these action games

It's really getting ridiculous.

It's better than cartoon quality now. Soon, it simply will
look so close to a "filmed" movie, it won't matter.

i completely agree. i think eventually games and movies will almost merge. i'm sure there will still be both, but i bet games become almost movie-like, but you're in control. you can already see it happening now. when i play medal of honor: allied assault, it's kind of like an infant movie that i'm in. you can see the direction games are going.

Those HalfLife II shots are insane.

wait til you see the videos.

Wow.... just watched the video for HalfLife II !!!

The physics engine is UNREAL!!!!!

I'm sold already. Crazy crazy crazy realistic.

I'm not much into gaming since I don't have any time. The only game I'm waiting for is GT4 for PS2; that's the new Gran Turismo

Oh...forgot to mention.

With some video cards like the Parhelia which I have, you
can play a game like battlefield on THREE monitors at once.

"Surround gaming" they call it.... he he he....

i'm so bored i'm about to start counting the leaves on the tree outside my window. i know this gets tossed around from time to time, but for gods sake what do people do to handle the boredom?

i have 2000 songs on rotation which helps, but only so much.

a guy can only eat so many toblerones and sandwiches in a day.

there's nothing on tv and the news looks like the same old talking heads.

help

i hear ya v.....

what am i doing? i got the tunes on, talking to my guitar player about our recordings and shows (shameless plug: www.mercyshot.com). got an herb garden growing (another little project), and i'm making charts and graphs of my trading. analyzing my execution accuracy.

watching premiership soccer in about 15 minutes actually my positions were long over at lunchtime. maybe i'll go up on the roof and run for a bit....or read a book about trading....i never did finish skimming that IB book....
