by Maarten Goldstein, Aug 29, 2006 5:52am PDTIGN and GameSpot have one of the most bizarre review score differences that I remember seeing, with IGN awarding the adventure game Barrow Hill: Curse of the Ancient Circle an 8.1 and GameSpot bestowing it with a 2.6. We have a demo of the game on FileShack, so I guess you can make up your own mind but really, talk about opposites. Also on FileShack

All I need is the E6600 ($370 shipped) and a 7900GT ($280 shipped), but I can't afford either of these this month so I'm going to take the impatient route and get the E6600 + a $30 junker 6200LE so I can have the system up and running and not wait a month. I'll just have to settle for 2D games and emulators :P
I'll also be free to sell my 6800GT AGP that overclocks to 420/1300 (faster than Ultra) with ease.. but what's a good price for this? Newegg has the same card for $289 retail and $172 OEM.. WTF?

My company is looking for another IT consultant. Our company consults public sector clients (cities, counties, states) and helps them formalize and achieve their IT goals. We don't implement solutions, you won't be pushing code or playing with hardware. We interview, analyze and tell them what to do better. Most of my job involves researching software solutions, pricing them, and writing reports/proposals. You have to be familiar with what software systems are out there, and know the computer jargon. This should be 100% of the shack populace.
You can read more about the company here: www.pticonsulting.com
The craigslist posting is here: http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/bus/191198413.html
We are seeking a candidate with 3-5 years of experience. I know that will crush a lot of you, but if you've worked in any enterprise IT organization above being a lackey, think about this. A college education is probably required (I have a BA and I'm the most undereducated person here...by far). Send in the resume, the worst that can happen is that we won't interview you.
I'm at work but I'll try to answer questions as they come up.

I missed these originally, are they playable on a modern PC? Is it worth the stupidly inflated prices I'm going to pay for used copies of them?

I despise most RTS games because the pace is too fast. Red Alert 2 dominates me because I get rushed and can't react. Starcraft is too micro-intensive and fast for me. Same with Dawn of War.
Ironcially, though, I love Total Annihilation...but only on 10x game speed!
I think my brain is broken :(

I actually have to say this game was fucking awesome. The Heaven/Hell party assignment was by far my favorite although I still want to go back and have some fun with the other missions.
I was really impressed, amazing game.

My friend won't put the cat on a diet because she eats what she eats.
I figure if he allowed the cat to roam outside and become an outdoor cat she'd lose some weight but he believes she will lose 2-3 years from her lifespan. I don't think she'll be losing any less being 20% overweight.
Is there anything I can do to help him help the cat lose weight, for the sake of the cat?

I have always done all of my web design with Photoshop but would like to learn Illustrator to WEB 2.0 up my stuff, and just because I like the pretty vector art it creates.
I have no money for books so I would love it if you guys could point me to some good sites with nice tuts for a beginner so I can get the concept down. There are too many sites to sift through my self.
thx

So I'm slated for intralase lasik eye surgery on both my peepers, and those crazy bastards told me that a hard blow to the head can knock off the flap they make in your cornea. How likely do you think that is to happen?
