Yes, he did. But that was before Benjamin Franklin flew a silicon wafer on a kite and proved that silicon is a better conductor than oak; even though oaks grow taller than silicon trees and thus are more likely to get struck by lightning.
For medical "body-visit" fans...

35 MB pak reviewed at http://www.3dgamersedge.com I like shaderparms, I've decided.
Any doodad I want to make into an entity, I can set up my material with whatever textural variety I want built into it. I model one door with a decal on it for the label, and instead of swapping textures on the door or having to have multiple door models that point to different decal textures, I just add a switch in the decal material and all I've gotta do is swap a parm on the model and I get instant and easy access to a whole variety of appearances with one model. Think of how you could apply this to crates! No more aligning textures, or constantly reapplying textures with different symbols on them to different sides - just make one crate model and make the :D What kind of game reviews do you prefer:
- one that summarizes the game, and goes through it's pros and cons - one that gives a fair review throughout the game - one that goes in depth, maybe adding up to 5 or more pages I've got some reviews to write, and since I'm lazy I'm contemplating on writing them more concisely and shorter, but I don't want to leave pertinent info out either. Don't summarize the story or anything, nobody wants to hear that ahead of time - we're buying the game to find out.
Otherwise, uh, I don't know what you expect us to say to the other points. Yes, of course I want the review to be fair. What else would I want? As for length - make it sufficient to say everything you have to say about the game. Five pages, unless they're short pages, is probably too much unless the game comes with new hardware. Also, saying "I'm lazy" doesn't give you an excuse for being lazy. :P There's one thing I expect from a review.
I want to be able to make an informed decision on whether or not to buy the game after reading the review. That's it. I don't want you to tell me to buy the game. I want to know if I'm going to like it. I want enough information in the review about the game itself, not its background, not its makers, not how your review is universally exclusive. Of course, if, at the same time, it's entertaining, well-written and coherent, I have nothing to complain. I would just like to announce that there is a monster in World of Warcraft called Deviate Shambler.
How did Blizzard know? http://img239.exs.cx/img239/5803/dmdepotrc2previewtitle7uz.jpg
If anyone is still playing HL2DM, check this map out. It's pure class. I just had a nice 12FFA on a French server, and I had no problems with lag at all. The map is quite stunning to set foot in -- not because of any specific design or set piece, but because the sense of place is so flawlessly realized. Not that it is devoid of fancy setpieces though. (it even has a very nicely done moving train) It's very large, so you'd probably want to find a server with at least 6-7 people on it. The only knock on the map I have is that more areas should have been clipped off -- you can jam yourself in some tiny/awkward places (though you won't get stuck, it just sucks moving around in it) Anyway, yeah, this map is pure fun. Go find a server! [screenshot]
At first that really impressed me, but the whole shot is just blocks and a cylinder or two. I must learn this ninja art of impressive boxes. If only someone had suggested disabling anonymous posts like seven years ago. Random fuckhats posting nonsense and reviving threads was bad enough but now the board's being used as a target for bombing Google.

er... aren't most maps blocks and cylinders? At first that really impressed me, but the whole shot is just blocks and a cylinder or two.
Exactly. This is why most "Real World�" maps generally fail to impress me. Real life architecture is usually pretty ugly (and from a mapping perspective, as the Lunmeister said himself, just a few blocks and the odd cylinder or two).
