I agree. The tinkering is bad. I enjoy the original cuts of the films as is. The additions done with the re-release of the original Trilogy (adding scenes, using 3D animation, etc.) were alright, but didn't add anything to the films. This newest release, with certain sound clips added (as in...

Just purchased Space Marine a few days ago and have been playing thoroughly. IT IS A BLAST! You start the game landing on an Ork craft and killing the crew, then turning the guns on the ship itself, where your character, Captain Titus, rises victorious after the ship crashes and explodes...

Either FF7, FF8, or the Universe at War soundtrack by Frank Klepacki :)

Not a problem! And best of luck with your book.

This game is amazing! To start, the graphics are incredible. In-game graphics are very smooth and detailed. You can see reflections as you walk past, clothing has wrinkles and moves a bit naturally as you move. Mouth movements are still a little off, but nothing too noticeable. Then there...

One of the big things with self-publishing is that you have to do all of your own PR work. This can be time consuming, even expensive. While Facebook provides relatively reasonable advertising (I pay about $7 a week) it can still cut into your paycheck, especially if you're putting food on the...

Here's another question: is 75K words for a book too short? I know a lot of books these days (I take my standard of measure from Warhammer 40K) is about 90-110K. My book is 75K. Should I add more? Or is it more about the story content rather than the length?

6-8 months is FAST? Yikes! But if that's the case then I'll slog through it. Again, it's a learning process. And I haven't quit my day job, so I'll be fine if it does take that long, haha. Any other lessons others want to share?

Yeah, she will begin the read and line edit around the 1st of July. As she goes she'll make suggestions and we'll work through stuff chapter by chapter. I want a quality piece, so even though it kills me due to length of time it will take I'm willing to go through with it.

So I just submitted my finished manuscript (75,300 words) to a copy-editor, Ms. Dorrie O'Brien. A little pricey, but that was expected (over $2000). What was not expected was time time. This is something for anyone who is serious about publishing, either through an agent and brick-and-mortar...

Thank God I'm not the only one. I just couldn't identify or sympathize with any of the characters. They all seemed so devoid of personality. Even in Sylveste's most dramatic moments (like...um...yeah...I'll think of one eventually) there was nothing there. I couldn't wrap my head around his...

While this is disturbing, I'm sure developing mobile technology that does not effect bumblebees, or other necessary insects, is possible. On the other hand, I just got my iPhone 4 and I'm not giving it up :) the bees will just have to wait until something better comes out.

I completely agree with the need for a strong marketing plan. I already use Google AdWords and FaceBook Ads, and will be expanding to other sites' marketing tools (DeviantArt, for example). Already my site's FaceBook page has 62 followers, and is growing! :) Additionally I have a blog. And...

Yes, when it doubt man is bad :P Normally it's just nature doing its thing.

I thought about an iPad 2, also. It's soo cool :) little pricey though. I'd want the Verizon 3G model with 64GB...$900 after taxes. But everyone I talk to loves theirs. It's like a Noteputer from BattleTech :3

Where are they? do they just randomly spawn in snowy/icey areas?

I STILL have not been able to find any doggies :(

I actually had to read Flowers For Algernon in school (so, so many years ago). I never understood how he got smart and then got dumb again...perhaps I need to reread it.

Ok. Why's that? Features? Comparison to the Nook?

Such is survival of the fittest. The weak species die out and the strong survive. I can understand that if, like the Panda, humans hunted it to near extinction. But even then that animal should have to adaptation to overcome such dangers, ie.) higher birthrate in the species, better...
