Morning Discussion
by Alice O'Connor, May 28, 2010 5:00am PDTI'm very much looking forward to the StarCraft II mod scene, hoping it can repeat Warcraft III's success in propelling new game types into the mainstream. WC3 wasn't the first game to have tower defense and Defense of the Ancients/Aeon of Strife-style gameplay but it certainly played a crucial role in their current success. With modding tools that allow far more, hopefully we'll see some new stars begin to rise in StarCraft II.

I want to put Hero's Sylar on here and Big Boss from Metal Gear (NES) but I think the above really great. The villains from Se7en and usual suspects are great as well but I feel like they only developed at the end so I didn't have a longing hate.
I know I am missing a lot so help me out.

" NASA engineers have fully revived the far-flung Voyager 2 probe on the edge of the solar system after fixing a computer glitch that scrambled its messages home for nearly three weeks.
A single bit flip in one location in the 33-year-old probe's memory storage caused the problem, and was remotely reset Sunday by engineers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. After a computer reset, the Voyager 2 is back on track, they said."
I was kinda hoping for kidnapped by aliens but it's good to see it's still working

Queridos amigos inauguramos una nueva minisección en GamesAjare muy interesante, amena y practicante. Se trata de “Solamente puede ocurrir en un videojuego!†(SPOEUV!) y en ella nos vamos a encontrar de todo o casi todo. Cosas que jamás pueden ocurrir en la vida real, ni en comics, ni en pelÃculas, ni en puticlubs. Será en teorÃa bastante surrealista, como es el caso del vÃdeo que inaugura la sección. Bueno quizás esto podrÃa ocurrir en una pelÃcula pero creemos, aunque no soy muy cinéfilo ni filántropo, no ha ocurrido todavÃa en ningún FLIM.

How is the music player/management on android based phones (specifically the HTC Incredible)? I'm looking to make the jump from an iPhone, but the one thing that has me concerned is the music player. I use the iPod portion of my phone daily, so I really need the new phone to do the same thing, but I've seen very little on the music side of driod phones.
How's the music player overall? Can you have music in the background while you use other apps? How do you manage the library? In short: music wise, how does the Incredible stack up to the iPhone?

i peeked into the wiki to see how this might change further down the line and it appears like it really doesn't.
i usually give a series 3 episodes to convince me but for the lack of other shallow entertainment to watch and due to the fact that i'm just drunk enough i'm going to watch another episode (thinking about it i just might have explained why they got a season out of this shit but six of them?).
