Evening Reading
by Brian Leahy, Nov 02, 2010 5:00pm PDTSo the real guitar for Rock Band 3 isn't going to be out until March 1, 2011, which is a really long time after the game's release. I'm curious how people will rush out to get the MadCatz controller, which is certainly capable of handling Pro Mode, but isn't a real guitar.
Furthermore, will people that can't wait and snag the MadCatz controller be upgrading to the real deal in a few months? Time will tell!

I'll probably do another live stream of the game, if anyone wants to see it.
Let me know!

So last night I knocked off Mr. House and then found out that the NCR won't deal with me any more. I'm now paralyzed with fear that I've taken the wrong course.
I hate games

Is firmware protected under the same laws as software? For example, is it illegal for a website to offer a free firmware download for someone elses product that has been long obsoleted?

Does IT tend to burn people out at a faster rate than other career choices? The first time when I was a general support/IT guy for a company, I got burned out, quit and went into a different field. I got dragged back in because I needed the money and at least I was programming so it was different.
Now here it is 4 years later and I'm feeling the same burnout, if not more. What is it about this career choice? Is every job like this?

About to start up on the new Castlevania. Hope it rules.
I'm basically waiting on a really good game for the Move to come out. Fighters or whatever looks pretty cool.

I'm looking to save down some videos from my GMAT course I did with Kaplan, but of course the videos are protected.
They're played using Adobe Flash 10; is there a program I can use to capture the audio and video while they play, then save them down? I'm looking for something fast and free as my subscription ends tomorrow.
Thoughts?
