The I-pod The effect I-pods putting on music ind.
vladtepesdrac replied to iGuest's topic in General Discussion
Honestly, iPod's are really overrated. You guys are really getting a rip. You have to buy all your extra accessories since the original iPod you get doesnt really have that much for features. Sure the design is cool and its an Apple. Plus all the marketing strategies and such are what makes it so popular. They appeal lots to the average consumer because they are simple and rose to the 'top' really fast. Nowadays when you hear someone talking about getting an HD mp3 player then 9 out of 10 times it will be iPod. However, i decided not to follow this flock of sheep. I did my research on the net for an HD mp3 player that would serve its purpose well. Play music/give me recording/small/fm and am radio maybe/etc. What I found was the iAudio. And I know first thing you are gonna say is that they stole the 'i' prefix from iPod, but actually i did research on that too and the iAudio was established way before iPod was on the market. Anyways, these come from the Korean company Cowon and are really amazing players. They are cheaper than iPods, use BBE music quality (this is really extraordinary effect to boost up the quality of your music) and they have line in/voice recording, also fm/am radio. User defined intro movies. Great customer support on their website and constant firmware updates. And they come out with lots of new designs and players (flash and HD) with really cool designs themselves.I settled for an M3L by them. 280$ US, 38 hour battery life, 20gb HD, all above specs (they have the recording and radio on all their players) and it has a remote where all the main functions can be carried out on. I prefer the use of the remote because to me taking out the player from its case or pocket is such an unefficient task. With the M3L i can change a song without even looking down, i simply clip the remote to my belt strap or pocket edge and ive gotten so used to this i dont hardly ever look down to change stuff (volume, song) unless i want to browse for somethin specific, and even that doesnt take much effort. anyways! I recommed that you get out of this iPod flock and get your money's worth with some players that are actually GOOD. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ these out! I know I might be biased towards iAudio, but I have used some of my friends iPods and compared to the iAudio they really suck and are inefficient, useability wise and feature wise. Thats all from me for now!Vlad -
Man there is so much undiscovered in the bottoms of the oceans. It would be really nice in the future if we were able to go do the bottom of the deepest trench (forget the name) and see what kind of 'monsters' reside there. I'm sure theres alot more underneath there than just giant squids

i consider myself an atheist. Personally, I think spending time worshipping a god or idol is just a waste of time, for me at least. There is only so much time we have on this Earth and any moment that time can be taken away (by death or disability etc). I figure, that i dont really believe in a god, i believe in myself. I believe in man, the human race. EVen though theres lots of good and bad things going on, its just what people do. To me there is no god, there are people. Now im not trying to substitute people for gods but im just saying that i dont believe in something that really doesnt affect me in any way. It is too far fetched of an idea.

Twisted Metal is definately a great game! I remember playing with my friend on it on Playstation all the time. Good for some great times and being able to smash into your best friend in the game haha!

OH WOWW!! Man where do I pick a set of those up? haha! Imagine having a LAN cafe with those things set up for a few computers so you can race against them! HahaThis would do good for a new campaign of advertisements! "GOT REALISM?"

OMG! Arcanum IS a really awesome game. Im surprised it didnt become famous like Final Fantasy and all that other mumbo jumbo. This game IS really amazing, and I agree that the voice acting really added a nice tough. Such a great game, many factors of it make it really realistic too. Wow, it's been a while since I've played it too! This brings back good memories!

Monkey Island Has anyone even heard of it?
vladtepesdrac replied to skuzzlebutt's topic in Computer Gaming
I remember when I was about 11 years old my dad bought me a whole set of games from Ukraine and among these were the 3 first Monkey Island games from the series. Seriously, i fell in love with them from the start, but im not gonna lie to you. I used the walkthroughs for it since I couldnt even get past the first parts of the game. Its really confusing sometimes what to do (especially at that young age). But these games remain a classic to me. Honestly, id pick Monkey Island (the older ones, not those crappy 3D ones) over any modern "top of the line graphics" game. Since back then I think games had way better plot and storyline and general enjoyability than today. Monkey Island (And most of Lucasgames other stuff) are on the top of the list for me! -
What Are: The 100 Oldest Websites
vladtepesdrac replied to RGF's topic in Websites and Web Designing
wow thats quite interesting! I had no clue whatsoever that this stuff was available back then. Seems such an ancient time (in the world of computers/internet that is)! -
Oh wow! Monkey Island series are friggin awesome! Except when they decided to go 3D of course. I picked up the PC set of all 3 first ones a while back and love them so much. The challenge they bring and humour are really great. So ya I agree that most classics are better than todays "look at me im better 3D than the rest" that are out there. But it does kind of bring me down that these quality games arent being produced anymore. Sure, there are lots of good games out there now but not as many with such good plots/humour/ and just general enjoyment. Lucasfilms games are really awesome tho, Indiana Jones ones were pretty good too!
