THE FUTURE

Now this is interesting. No more consoles eh? I think this is definitely possible, but I'm not economically savvy enough to analyze how likely it is to happen. Technically, it's a great idea -- put all the processing and video rendering of a game on a humongoid server which instantly reads your input, then streams the visual information over highspeed internet to your low processing-power receiver unit. This is seemingly an incredibly efficient and resource-saving solution, but who knows what the reality would be. There also MANY potential fubars (server crashes, internet inconsistency, hacking concerns) which could render the entire system unplayable and unleash a legion of angry pasty nerdos with pitchforks (I would be leading, torch in hand). Plus I imagine that would decrease the price of console units sold, which I assume is a large part of revenue, so it may not benefit the companies as much... however there would likely be a monthly fee which would prolly make up the difference. Whooo knows, what do you think?

Here's a new take on energy saving! WTF how retarded can you get. ELECTROCUTING you if it decides you have no need for more light.... HRM doesnt that USE MORE electricity??? ugh.



And lastly, some geeky April Fool's ideas. I love the blue screen of death one, and I'm definitely keeping that wakerupper.com website onhand BAHAHAHA.
