The same company that SysInternals, Engadget and Slashdot recently outted as having too much protection on their “CDs” will not be including region coding on their new console platform. [They already duse this practive on the PSP but some movies are coming with Region coding built in.] Some speculate that this is their way of forcing the HD-DVD standard down the general populous’ throats without them knowing. Some say it’s a relief as it will allow for larger game selection. Anyone else have an opinion?

Nathan will be going under the handle ShotgunMcJerk! (Long Story). Many of you already know Nathan. He is a big fan of Halo and Chu Chu Rocket. He just recently landed himself a Sega Genesis and the game which he discovered at my bachelor party! 🙂
Choo Choo Mouse!
Woot!
Welcome aboard.
To continue discussion on the outing this wednesday… please click the links section in the nav bar.
There are several people planning to be there so if you need a ride or just want to be sure you know who to look for use that link to do so.
I added code that allows you to click the gridcycle logo/header to get back to the main page.
Also added Gorf graphics to Blockquotes. Although I do have to note… since IE is a pile of crap and does not support CSS2, it will not display the critters at the top of the blockquote. If you want this to show up in your posts, when you quote something or want to highlight it… use
< blockquote >< /blockquote >
to make this feature appear. Anything between the blockquote tags will appear in the Gorf bubble.

For all of you Hardcore Coin-Op Freaks out there…
