A happy hello to everyone out there in Cyber Space. Today is a pretty cool day as we have a cool interview and some game news to talk about. First up though I have to tell everyone who is a comic fan to go out and see Frank Miller's Sin City. The movie is incredible! It is has bad guys, beer and boobs. Seriously though the movie can be graphic sometimes but since it is set like a comic book it doesn't go over the top in my opinion like Kill Bill Vol. 1 did. I also like the two ongoing storylines.

Speaking of cool things to come out this month. Valve has updated their Hardware Survey website. There are a lot of cool tidbits of information including how many people are using 512k or more of RAM now. Head on over and compare your rig stats to others out there.

I have trouble believing that 776,755 willfully filled out their survey.

I'm sure it probably is...

Bad enough you have the inconvenience of having to activate your legally purchased software, relying on the company to still be there and work properly (some people like to play games that are 20 yrs old, but Valve may not be around that long...)

Now they are collecting who knows from your machine and probably selling it to all sorts of companies.

The whole thing is a steaming pile in my book. Just one step behind the RIAA. Confused
