OK, This is Just Excessive, Guys
Seriously, two times now? Come on, did you people really think Valve wouldn’t notice you running around with items that should take months to acquire on release day?
Part of me thinks the penalties should be getting more severe, not less.
Ok that’s enough GENERIC INTERNET RAGE for now.

Tomorrow is Wednesday, and You Know What That Means
Yes, that’s right, a new Zero Punctuation episode is released. Remember class, it’s okay to Laugh Out Loud as you young people say, just remember to take notes because there will be a test on it tomorrow. It’s recommended that you review previous editions in the archives to help prepare yourself for the test.
In other news, I went on a nostalgia trip this week when I found my old Rollercoaster Tycoon disc. It actually installed, and then showed me why 2D isometric perspective could not have died sooner. Imagine trying to line up two sections of path in three dimensions, except you have no depth perception at all and you have to stand 20 feet away from whatever it is you’re constructing. Yeah.
I’m not the guy to go to for old school gaming, let me tell you.

DT @ Digital Life 2007 - Novint Falcon Game Controller
Deep Thought staff writer Uchendu Nwachukwu (AKA UnnDunn) recently visited Digital Life 2007 in New York City to test out the latest wares from major technology companies. He also had the opportunity to speak with representatives from some of the exhibitors. Previous interviews we have posted discuss the FordSync in-car entertainment system and the Gateway One all-in-one PC. In this interview, UnnDunn discusses the Novint Falcon game controller.
The Novint Falcon is unlike other input devices on the market. It’s not a mouse, trackball, or joystick. Instead, it is described as being a “small robot” that provides “three-dimensional force feedback,” according to Novint’s web site. The Novint Falcon is currently available, and is now also available at CompUSA stores.
Anyway, enough of me writing about it; let’s listen in as UnnDunn gathers details about the Novint Falcon, including information on pricing, availability, compatibility, and more.
