Infinite Line

[was reading IGN]

Infinite Line (working title), a role playing game exclusively for the Nintendo DS portable handheld system, takes place in outer space and gives players the ability to control, build, outfit and customize more than 150 spaceships. Infinite Line stretches the DS hardware to the limit, offering over 200 characters and the ability to control multiple spaceships at any one time.”

Oh that’s cool.

“A spaceship battle will pretty much occur in real time. There will be various parameters for your ship. According to these parameters you’ll have what’s called a ‘command gauge.’ This command gauge builds up and you can spend it to perform specific attacks during battle. For example, if you get some really great personnel on your ship, great pilots or whatever, they may be able to improve your command structure and your ship may react faster.”

Sounds good

“We’re probably talking 50-60 hours just to get through once. But if you want to do everything it will probably take you 100 hours.”

Wow, cool, on a DS?

Infinite Line will be based on the novella “Childhood’s End” by Arthur C. Clarke.”

WHAT.

Hold on…. as far as I know, the late Sir Arthur C. Clarke only wrote one book with that title.
It’s one of my favorite sci-fi books ever, and one of the great bibles of Transhumanism.
Only one problem:

There aren’t any space ships in it. None in combat anyhow. The book takes place on Earth… as in both feet on the ground.

I just watched I Am Legend also. Can someone explain to me what the point of buying a license, paying royalties, or even just ‘based on’ing something if you’re just going to make up an original story in the first place. I mean, shit at least I Am Legend gets to float on name recognition - oh and both the movie and the book happen ON EARTH. I will probably play and enjoy Infinite Line… but I would’ve enjoyed it more if it were ‘inspired by’ and not ‘based on’ - because I’ll spend too much time checking my crew members for horns.

OkShow #101, will it be awesome? I hope so.

MGS4 is out, and I’ve discovered that you no longer have to actually play a game to enjoy it (Not MGS4 specifically) Oh, and Spore creature creator has come out… and damn people are having a ball with it.

Pen’s realizing she can’t keep up with all this gaming… it’s the same pathway as anime… I think I’ve gone over this subject before, but I’ll expound on it a little further tonight.

iPhone for $199? YES PLS

Ice Lynx Radio: #71

Seventy-one TIMES! I have SEEN THE LIGHT! You shall see it too. There was a time where one would actually pay less for goods and services, but inflation has since created a grand increase, driving the price of goods and services skyrocketing. If I hear one more person complain about the gas prices, I will have heard one more person complaining about the gas prices. How dated will discussing gas prices make this episode? Apparently the date will be 5/23/08. Indiana Jones was released yesterday to the theaters and I have viewed it. Was it fun? Yes. Was it bad? I don’t know, see it yourself! We don’t use a horse and buggy anymore to transport ourselves, unless you happen to be part of the Amish, and that’s just how you live. We have the invention of a car, with which people can access more people in a timely fashion. There is no spoon, when you only order a dinette set with forks and knives. When people say the phrase “I remember the time when…” I listen to what they have to say, then tell them that they didn’t mention the time at all! Was there a moment in this world when your high school didn’t have seventeen ‘bands’ all forming together? Skateboards: Invented by Michael J. Fox. Dance music can still be danced to, house music can still be used to construct them. Forget about the world and you’ll find yourself in a very white, strange place, unable to leave for 90 days. If everyone wore helmets, we could all be the Batman, and match.com would really be put to the test. Product placement is great, you can watch a movie and make your grocery list at the same time. Chewing up minutes on your cell phone will indeed damage your teeth, and possibly your phone, except an iPhone, I hear they make them out of candy jelly. Spell check says that “iPhone” is not a real word; finally, something is right. You are musically talented, so am I, we all are, just some of us don’t stick to traditional instruments. Have you ever been at a place where all those bright lights are flashing all around you? Why did I get a ticket? I’ve driveled on about nothing for long enough, at least now you know what to buy tomorrow.
