That was the first thought I had too.

yeah my assumption is that all the cool SteamOS shit will be open source and not just the kernel. If they start adding closed source systems to it that are critical then they've lost the point.

I can't believe that it's almost 2014 and mouse lag is a frequent problem in games =( Bioshock infinite was unplayable because of it.

It's open source. Any steamOS I use I'll probably have root access to. And if I wanted to recompile the kernel I probably could.

where is that?

People tell him he's about to die all the time, lol.

It cracks me up that he's so bothered by people's annoyance with his 5 year per book schedule. Add that to the fact that he released his three best books two years apart and he shouldn't be surprised that people are concerned. Either way we're going to get a conclusion to the story in the TV...

I agree with you to an extent. But some people are more in command of their life than others. My point wasn't to say, "Oh look at poor boogie, how dare you say mean things to him." it was more "francis isn't some manchild in his mother's basement, he's a character played by a pretty cool guy."...

Francis is a character played by boogie. He represents the child normal people have inside of them and is untempered emotion and unhindered immaturity. He's there to convey how some gaming enthusiasts feel at the worst (Diablo3 release) and best (this recent video) of times.

What's with the hostility here? I also find the series pretty funny, though it's hit and miss (Like most off the wall comedy is) The dad is incredibly funny though.

I'm not buying DAI no matter what. I might play it but I'm not buying it.

I have them stored in an SQL database. SELECT name FROM guesses ORDER BY ABS(NASalesXBONE - @actualNASalesXBONE) Actually I have no idea how to make a query that would give me the winning result given that there's two parameters =( Someone join my tables!

I'm going to put you down for 1.9, 0.75, 7.5 and 4 million fyi.

I'll put everyone's entries in the OP. If people change their votes it's ok. What ends up being in their post by the deadline nears is what's counted.

No.

While a fight between a woman and the HW champion is ludicrous there's nothing wrong with what she said. On the flip sidei t's not physically impossible for me to trap Rousey in an armbar. It's just not going to happen if I fought her 1000 times.

I knew I'd cock up the wording of the contest the first time Here's the kind of entry I'm looking for. Separate entries for each console for each year (so 4 total). A reasonably formatted entry for the contest would be: PS4 NA Sales by March 31st 2014: 1 million Xbox NA Sales by March...

Ok here's the forum contest rules. There's two contests. Each one is to guess the total North American sales for both Xbox One and PS4. The first contest runs until March 31st 2014. The second contest runs until March 31st 2015. A reasonably formatted entry for the contest would be: PS4...

Good to hear that guy's xbox account wasn't banned. You really couldn't pick a better way of making people fear always on DRM policies than quickly banning people for innocent shit.

I'm excited to see what kind of shit people can do with the new kinect. The current kinect has done wonders for lowering the entry price on sensors for the vision and robotics community. If the kinect II is a step ahead of that it could mean big things. But yeah, I couldn't give a shit about...

Would read 100 more of these.

Yeah but it only takes one nazi mod to infract Hodj and Quaid for continuing their infinite argument to put it back.

Holy shit you guys really want to fuck each other today. The president of Sony said they were going to put it in. If that's good enough for you, fine. If that's not good enough for you, fine. There's no need to argue about it, especially in the impotent way you guys are doing it.

Column I don't want to regulate spoilers in this forum but please don't spoil movies before their US release.

Velasquez Injured, Will Not Fight Werdum at UFC 172 in Mexico | News - BJPENN.COM

Yeah. I'll make it official tomorrow morning in case anyone brings up problems with that plan.

Sounds like Q3 for MS and Q4 for Sony would work well, right?

Good point. What do you guys think? Q3 or Q4? Q4 is my preference.

Yeah that's why I'm thinking we'll have a good estimate by the end of January 2014. I kind of want to run a second, longer contest that lasts until January 2015 just because that's a more realistic time period to determine who wins the first year of the console wars.

It's not really aobut what's fair to the manufacturer, I just think it'd be better to only consider the US since most of us live here. Including the world would increase the error in our predictions too much.

Put a cap on the # of flips you get and the game could be very profitable for casinos. It's a very basic gambling game though, and the odds are so plain that people would be harder to fool into various gambler's fallacies. For those that follow NFL you'll know the NFC won 14 straight coin...

hahaha. If people are interested I'll put up terms tomorrow and close entries before the ps4 launch. My initial thought is PS4 vs Xbone sales in US only.

Pretty much yeah. Who here would be interested in a prediction contest for sales numbers at end of January 2014 (or 2015)? winner gets a title!

intrade.com =(

Yeah but they did preside over one of the most popular trilogies in gaming history so it's not like they're taking a lot of heat from EA over the ending. The truth is probably that they stood upon the shoulders of talented writers, developers and artists and shit only sucked when those talented...

We'll see. The problem with models created for this is that there are very few data points to base your models on. I don't remember the release dates but as far as huge console releases within the same year what is there? Either way trying to model what will get better sales is probably bullshit.

As far as I know it's a tech demo and has a driving simulator you can try. I haven't heard that they are in talks with any car simulators but I feel like soft physics is tech that's long overdue. I think part of the reason it's been held back is because for driving games it probably doesn't add...

Because Casey Hudson and Mac Walters are the project director and lead writers? They're the bosses when it comes to how the game ends. Who knows how increasingly isolated they got with their dumbass ideas and wanted to 'go rogue' just to force their shitty ideas into the product.
