Evening Reading
by Xav de Matos, Sep 03, 2010 5:00pm PDTSo, not too much happened today. Pretty quiet considering PAX 2010 just started. You'd think some news would drop, but not a peep out of the industry.
Oh, except for Duke Nukem Forever coming out of its grave!

I have this line of code, inputString = new chastringLength]; and it's my understanding that I should call delete [] inputString before exiting the function, yet I keep getting heap corruption errors. Am I missing something here?

wow, I played the original and was frustrated by some of the mechanics (specifically the timers), but this demo/prequel for the second game is just great. It really is a nice bite sized piece of gaming. It took me two runs to get the 'a' ending and rescuing all the survivors in one play-through, which worked out to a good 4 or 5 hours today. And with the story only being 12hrs of game time, I didn't feel disappointed that I had to restart in order to get all the achievements either. That is my biggest concern with the full game, having to repeat the beginning over and over to work out what I'm doing.
But case zero A+

So does the fact that we are trying to evolve past this with more involved and cerebral story, give you hope for the future? Are the future water cooler conversations going to be more interesting from here on out?

So far no real interest it seems because austin shackers have turned into a bunch of suck wads. Low 70's tonight, lots of beer, sounds fun, who wants in? We could even do something like Gingerman so that you fucks down south don't have to travel more than 50 feet.

Got a bill in from Comcast yesterday. It is $3 more this month - compared to last month.
It seems these small increases happen every other month.
From a TV perspective, I'd really like to dump them.
From a Net perspective, I'd really like to dump them, but I really don't have other options in my area.
Today, I am starting looking at options, any suggestions?
