Is it tomorrow yet?

I don't trust Microsoft, I just think they earned what they got and have done a pretty good job. I also use most of their programs and find little fault in them.

If, however, they implement this new Fritz chip and spy sh!t thing, I may consider making a move to Linux and AMD (god HELP me). Because I certainly don't like handing my personal life in word format to Bill Gates or anybody else, no matter HOW much milk he drinks.

Ha ha.

You have to use a badminton or Tennis raquet for wasps. Hockey sticks don't have enough PING in them. Wasps need to be PINGED or TWOCKED, they can't be THOCKED, it doesn't have enough ZING.

Larger animals can be THOCKED, for instance, cows. Humans tend to prefer SOCKS.

I swear to god he was real, he was a computer psycatr...psychiastrist....(sp?) and he listened to your problems and suggested remedies in a COMPUTER VOICE. And there was a talking parrot! You said stuff into a microphone and his MOUTH MOVED. Soundblaster! I wanna download him again! I wanna download the obselete psychiastrist!!!!

The voice of wisdom appears to think this was supposed to be a racist comment, so I edited it out myself.

I would also create Microscopic, and release a new operating system called Microscopic XPerience (commonly known as Microscopic XP), and release a word processor (Words) and Microscopic Office 2000 with it. Then I would release an Xbocks Gaming System and legally rename myself William Henry Gates the III, better known as Bill Gates.

I'd give my money to animal charities and create a 100 square mile safe haven for Red Squirrels and Wrens. Also blue tits and coal tits.

I'm saying life in GENERAL was better in 256 colours, not just games. I remember it as sitting on a HUGELY oversize Bean Bag (Or maybe I was really small?) next to a real fireplace that lit the room up, trying to solve MI2 with my dad and brother (My dad later decided to become retarded so we left). Our tiny, crappy Sound Blaster speakers.... ah yes. We lived in a gorgeous cottage because half my brothers and sisters weren't born yet. There was this hill in the back garden... me and my brother constructed the COOLEST EVER GO-KART. We searched through a rubbish dump and found an old pram, so we uses the wheels on that, an old orange crate and some rope tied to either front wheel as steering. We used to tear down that hill, around the corner and into this kind of FOREST of "Chinese Knot Weed". In case you don't know what that is, it's gardeners hell. It spreads like cowcrap, and grows about 5 foot high. It's hollow and filled with liquid that can cause rashes, and it's very easy to break and grows in thick forests. It was twice as high as me at the time so it was great fun. We had a treehouse, and an orchard, and this weird kind of CELLAR in the garden that had a locked door that we never got a chance to explore because my parents sold some of the land to the building council so they could BUILD THE F*CKING MAIN ROAD THROUGH PART OF OUR GARDEN. Life was good the way I remember it.

Wow, does anybody else remember... Dr Sbatso (sp?)? He was like a doctor for the computer, you could make him faint by swearing?! Where can I get him!? I wanna talk to him again! AND THE TALKING PARROT?!???

Or The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes... I remember those graphics looking SO REALISTIC....

I love Windows, I love Microsoft Software, and I commend Bill Gates. If it wasn't for him alone we wouldn't have an awful lot of the programs and software we have today, and certainly if it wasn't for him and his computer geek college friends, we'd probably only be on 386's right now. He found a way to harness the power of the Supercomputer.

I think he's probably a really nice man. Think about it. He has a nice family, he gives loads to charity. He doesn't just do that for publicity, because he doesn't make a public thing out of it. There are some people who really want to help. If I was rich, I'd definately give to charities, but would that mean I was doing it for publicity? He also drinks milk, and no evil man could drink milk because it would turn sour in their stomachs.

He loves programming and computers. I'd go as far as to say I think we'd all get along with him just fine.

At the moment I'm unsure about this new 'palledonium' thing, but that doesn't change my views that Bill Gates is an ordinary human being, and Microsoft is an ordinary empire company. Of course I wish they had bigger, better competitors so that when Intel and Microsoft introduce their new SPY computers, we wouldn't have to buy them. On the other hand, Microsoft have time and time again produced excellent software, even if it HAS crushed the small timers.

The French always end up as military toast, or so it seems from a search on the popular Google search engine. But a miffed Canadian student is actually behind a prank that says no documents are found in a Google search for "French military victories."
The search brings up a page that asks: "Did you mean 'french military defeats.'"

The French did win some wars. In fact, Google lists about 63,100 pages of French military victories.

But a Web page says no documents are found when searching for "French military victories" using Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" button, which bypasses the list of search results and jumps directly to the first Web page in the list.

That happens to be a mock-up page of Google, suggesting a search for "french military defeats." The large Google logo at the top tends to distract Web surfers from the address in the Web browser: www.albinoblacksheep.com/text/victories.html.

[DIFFERENT]

Mmm, games were a lot more creative. Lucasarts were producing loads of interesting and funny games such as MI and S&M, and the Dig also... and Grim Fandango... anyway... now they just produce a CRAP load full of Starwars ... for lack of a better word... BOLLOCKS.

On the other hand, I guess they ARE releasing S&M2 and FT2... on the other hand, AGAIN, no new material there  

And something I hate about recent games.... back in 256 colour days, they *sometimes* painted every single background with loving care... *maybe*. Now they just made a few 3D objects, throw on some eyes and legs, and call it a "Character". Or make a box with a few other, SMALLER, DIFFERENT boxes inside it, and call it a room.

Curse you lucasarts, Curse you and your crappy employees. See, you should have given Tim Schafer a raise when you had the chance.

You email address is hidden and you don't provide an AIM SN ¬_¬

That's the sort of thing I[/i] say

Sounds fun certainly is a great idea LMAO. I guess by wet dream, you don't mean wetting the bed

And yeah, screenshots!

ALWAYS go upstairs.

I'd rather their new Pandemonium or whateverthehellitscalled system didn't automatically delete files that it finds offensive. One step closer to a 'Democratic Communist' era.

Ha ha! I live in Europe! We'll stay free for at LEAST 2 months after you americans have been enslaved by your own government.

I'd love to go back to 1990, do you know that? Not only was I not being spied on, and not only was I nearly as good as proffesional animators on Dpaint, but my family was a happy one.

Maybe I associate 256 colours with a non broken family.

Does anybody else have this weird thing where they always imagine their parents as kids... in BLACK AND WHITE!?

How many people worked on the project?

How long did it take?

What inspired you to make this game?

Approximately how many hours gameplay?

Can we have a sneak preview of the type of puzzles found in this game?

Quite naturally, this leads to my next question, can I come and live with you?

Yes, but Apple II and Famicon don't allow the American Government to spy on you to this day. The PC, on the other hand, is the biggest spy since James Bond. I'm thinking PC Bond.

Snake, I cry every night and dream about being with you, I want you so much I ache inside, and I don't know how to cope any more.  :'( And your games, also.

EDIT - I read this after I posted it and slightly scared myself. Maybe that's why Tim Schafer never replied to that message.

Sorry, I'm a newbie too I tried searching for that option but I can't find it. In any case, I have no idea what you're talking about.
