Hi Al, Yes, I've seen War Games, but it has been several years ago. However, I take your point as it seems all too possible that some cracker might do something like that. On 3/23/13, Allan Thompson allan1.thomp...@cox.net wrote: It is truly a shame... All this reminds me of Matthew Broderick

Hello Enes, That is why I distinguish between hackers and crackers. Hackers, white hats, are good guys who try to steel information for some legit cause. Crackers, black hats, are bad guys who give hackers a bad name. In this case its obviously a case of the latter not the former. On 3/23/13,

Hi Shaun, See there is the difference between you and I. The reason a game like Castaways can keep me playing for hours and hours because I have to constantly be thinking, formulating a strategy, planning ahead. If you aren't willing to take the time in planning out your game, updating your

Hi, I just bought a copy of Blindside for the PC, but it says I need Desura installed. What is that, and how do I work it? I've played around with it a little, but I can't even get the game installed. I have no idea what I'm doing. Thanks. Ryan

Hi Ryan, I just took a look at this thing, since it interested me that blindside now is available on PC too. Unfortunately, you really need this Desura program to install and play the game. Desura seems to be something like Steam is, a program you install to be able to install and play

Hey Sarah, Thanks for checking it out. It sure didn't look accessible for me either, I'm using Jaws. I appreciate the help though. I guess they got my four bucks. I could try and get it back, but I really don't see the point. It figures, they'd make a game for the blind, with an inaccessible

Hi Ryan, well, it's possible that the game developer doesn't know how inaccessible Desura is. Maybe you could send them a message. Even if they can't change anything, they could post a notice on their webpage so that other blind users know about that before they buy the PC version. Best

Wow, I never knew there was a second wargames movie. It sounds awful, lol. I wonder how a audio game could simulate that wargames kind of thing? I recall a card game called nuclear war, where everyone would be dealt cards which featured all sorts of doomsday weapons. Then they would launch

the movie was called wargames the dead code and was out in 2008 it was based on the same theme. that may have been why it didn't take off. I liked it updated sounds and units but still no one was willing to belive the system was failing after all its ai was supposed to be advanced as. But
