Wow, a handheld Grand Theft Auto sounds amazing. That series of games is by far my favorite. They are so well made and are so addicting. The PSP is pretty powerful, and I think the Grand Theft Auto game will be great for it. I hope that if they do release it, that they will release it on PS2 or PC or something as well, because I don't plan on buying a PSP .

Apparently they have found what is called "soft tissue" inside of the bones of a T-Rex. This "soft tissue" actually contains blood vessles and cells from the dinosaur. The material is from a 70-million-year-old dinosaur fossil. I think this is pretty crazy that they are able to get tissue from a dinosaur. Maybe they can learn many new things about them...

America To Sell F-16's Up to two dozen to be sold to Pakistan
Hellmonkeys replied to elevenmil's topic in General Discussion
Psh, why in the hell would we do this? I doubt Pakistan can even fly them... This always happens, though -- we give away weapons, etc. and then they use it against us. For example, we gave Osama Bin Laden and the Taliban weapons to fight off the Russians, and now we are fighting against them with the weapons we gave them. Pretty dumb idea... -
Need for Speed Underground 1 was pretty awesome. I played that a lot. But, Need For Speed Underground 2 just isn't the same. They tried to add too much and it junked the game up. I dunno, but I just think the second one wasn't very good.

How Many Mp3's Do You Have? No. of mp3s in your collection.
Hellmonkeys replied to canute24's topic in Art & Creativity
I have 2,057 MP3s, which is 9 GB. I guess it's not too many compared to some people, but I do listen to them all a lot . -
One game that I played a long time ago was Runescape. I haven't played it recently, but I used to play it and I liked it a lot. I suggest giving it a try sometime.

Are You For Or Against Cloning? what would be your reason?
Hellmonkeys replied to adriantc's topic in Science and Technology
I am also for cloning. I think it can be useful for a ton of things. For example, they can use it to create tissue and organs to keep people alive. As long as it doesn't get out of hand, I think cloning should be explored more in depth. Also, cloning can elimate the flaws of humans by cloning people without these flaws. Having every person all the same would suck, but, I think what we should really be trying to discover about is DNA modification, so you can remove some of the bad things about us. I guess this is still controversial, and it will always be a hot topic . -
100 Gigabytes Of Mp3s? ...in Your Pocket? wow
Hellmonkeys replied to Dodger's topic in Science and Technology
Well, a lot of the MP3 players can also store other data on these hard drives as well. Basically it is just a portal hard drive. But yeah, hard drives are getting getting huge amounts of storage for small amounts of size. The 3.5 inch drives are pretty cool as well. -
Firefox Security Update (firefox 1.0.2) Released 23-03-2005
Hellmonkeys replied to Rik?'s topic in Security issues & Exploits
Yay, I love Firefox. When there are exploits, Mozilla fixes them so quickly. Keep up the great work, Mozilla! -
A Very Grim Discovery 41 Bodies Found Shot, Beheaded in Iraq
Hellmonkeys replied to spawn_syxx9's topic in General Discussion
That is sad . There were so many innocent lives lost in Iraq. And all for what? Nothing. There was no reason for the thousands of soldier deaths, and many more civial deaths.I don't get why the insurgants attack civilians. That is so stupid... they didn't even do anything. I don't mind them killing soldiers, because they have willingly risked their lives to fight against them. But civilians? That's just sick... -
The weird thing about this is that the kid took his grandfather's gun, police car, and bulletproof vest. The kid used the police's own gear to kill several people... rather ironic.But, I think this is terrible that it happened. Why would anyone ever do this? The worst part about this is that the kid is only 16. He is so young, yet he kills his grandparents as well as several of his classmates? How sad...
-
It's pretty amazing that the girl survived and the dad died. Maybe since he is heavier he fell faster and impacted harder? I don't know, but it is pretty cool. Not even a broken bone... amazing.

Sony Offers Pizza Feature For Hungry Gamers
Hellmonkeys replied to talbotda13's topic in General Discussion
I think that is pretty stupid... That is just making the people more and more lazy. Now the people that play these games all day are able to order pizza straight from their computer, so they don't even have to leave their seat to order food! All this does is support them in ruining their lives further. But hey, it's their own choice. -
Haha, that is hilarious. PHP a derivative of PCP... what a joke, hahahaha. That must be a good school if the teachers think a programming language is a drug . Just because they are ignorant doesn't mean they have to punish the kid . Maybe he should have typed in "PHP" on google and would have seen 10 million results about it being a programming language. But hey, I guess that would be too easy.

Wow, I am glad that they finally broke up. Now I don't have to worry about them releasing a new album and destroying the brains of anyone who listens to it . I hate Blink 182 and it is great that they are gone .
-
That is good that it got abolished for teenagers. However, I think it should be removed completely. The death penalty is pointless. There is no reason that anyone should be killed by the government. One reason that it should be gone is because of all the false accusations. There have been way too many cases where someone was sentanced to death and then they discovered he was innocent after he was already dead. The only way to prevent this is to just get rid of it completely.

Wow, I think that is pretty cool that it is "legal" in France. I never thought that anyone would leagalize something like that, since it is pretty much stealing. Although, it is pretty hard to catch.
-
Why would you even try to text message anything quickly? Why would you even try to set a "record" for this? I think that's rather pointless. Text messaging is also pretty pointless. Just call them if you want to talk, or go home and E-Mail them.

Ishuffle From Ipod Digital Music Player from Apple
Hellmonkeys replied to err's topic in Science and Technology
While the idea is great, I don't want one because it can only hold 1GB of stuff. Sure, it's tiny and cheap, but I would have to refill it before I went anywhere with it. I like how with a 40GB player I can have my whole collection with me. -
New Use For Old Consoles Make a pocket SNES
Hellmonkeys replied to sirhenry's topic in Science and Technology
I saw an article about this in Popular Science, and it looked pretty interesting. It is a cool idea, but I am not sure how well it'd work. SNES was probablly the best system made, in my opinion. Hacking it to make it cool is an awesome idea, but is way too hard for me to do. I think Nintendo should produce one themselves, because that would be the best . -
Yes, I have to agree with you here. Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic is probablly one of the best, if not the best, RPG that I have ever played. The story was excellent and there was so many things you could do. There was plenty of side quests and other things that you could deal with in several different ways to effect your rank from light to dark, or vice versa.Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II is also just as good as the first. It took everything from the first one and made it better.I suggest playing either of these great games, because that are amazing .

Ghost Recon 2 awesome completly realistic
Hellmonkeys replied to Randle Densmore Jr.'s topic in Computer Gaming
Ghost Recon is a pretty awesome game. I never played Ghost Recon 2, but Ghost Recon 1 was extremely realistic for it's time. The graphics were the best I had seen when it was released, and I would expect the same for Ghost Recon 2. -
My internet connection is cable internet. It has 4 mbps download and 300 kbps upload speeds. The download speed is extremely good, however, the upload is pretty *BLEEP*. I think cable connections just can't have good upload speed, which kind of sucks. But, I like my connection either way and I can download things pretty damn fast . Oh, and, it only costs $45/month.

I am not sure about the Pros and Cons, but I have to say that I am an AMD fan. I just like their processors a lot better, for some unkown reason. But the one thing that I do like about them is that they are a LOT cooler than Intel's chips (at least the Athlon 64 vs. Pentium 4). But, other than this, I am not sure about the pros and cons.But, I have always used AMD, and until Intel creates something amazing with amazing NEW features, I am going to stick with AMD.

Leaving Your Computer On? - is this good for it?
Hellmonkeys replied to nickmealey's topic in Software
I have left my computer on for 24/7 for YEARS now. I turn it off once in awhile for things such as vacations, etc., but that is very rare. And I have NEVER had any problems with leaving it on. Just make sure that you don't do something stupid like leave the door of the room shut or break the fans .One thing that is bad about it is the energy bills. Computers take quite a bit of power to operate, so it costs quite a bit to run it, but I don't have to pay for it so I don't care .Another thing that could cause problems is that leaving it on reduces the fan life. Fans do have a limited time span for ~50,000 hours (http://www.thermaltake.com/home.aspx?aspxerrorpath=/coolers/volcano/rs/a1725.htm). This is a lot of hours, but I guess it could cause some problems down the road.
