Doesn't look that much diff to speech input that has always existed on droid?
Apple invented speech input, just like they invented video calls for the iPhone 4.

Being surprised that Sal has an upper class accent makes me surprised.
Hey. It's not that emphatically upper-class.

So, SydGAF, Marsh is going to be in Sydney, so are we going to do another full meetup? Upcoming SydGAF Events are:
May 6th: Board games with Clipper, Danoss and Jintor
May 20th: Board games with Clipper, Doncamatic, Marshmellow and anybody else who wants to come.
Shall we do a dinner and/or drinks gathering on the 20th? Would you prefer another day? Marsh is with us for a while, so there is plenty of scale to pick better times and so on. Please, speak up if you are interested as this might be the last time I spruik this...

It's more the icon and style for speech input. Android has always had some form of speech control.
About all that has changed is the shape of the button. The iconography has not, it was the same on my old HTC magic...which had android 1.6!
Have they patented the name Steve yet?
Dibs on Phantom Lancer in tonight's Dota games!
Already played a practice match against bots with him. He's um...interesting. Trouble is I find it hard to control more than one dude, hah. He is going to be a damn nuisance in the hands of the right player though, that's for sure. I watched one game with like 600 viewers, and the PL was TERRIBLE. You need to get in there as much as possible to get your phantoms. This guy played defensively, didn't work.
Apparently, I sound like that drunk.
Also, there was this little gem. Apple was taken to court for not fulfilling a promise to customers, then trying to weasel out of it. Pretty disgusting behaviour on their part.

Fiiiine, we can rotate a little.Damn
-Third person perspective
-The game uses a hotbar to activate skills like other traditional MMOs
-Visually it looks like other Hero Engine MMOs like SWTOR
-The general art style is kind of like RIFT or Everquest 2
-"It needs to be comfortable for people who are comign in from a typical massively multiplayer game that has the same control mechanisms, but it also has to appeal to Skyrim players."
-"Recreateing the freedom Elder Scrolls players expect within the World of Warcraft-style mechanics Zenimax Online is using for this MMO would be impossible without changing the way that players interact with the world."
-The game uses MMORPG genre standards such as classes, experience points, and other traditional MMORPG progression mechanics, but they try to present it "around the core fantasy presented by traditiona Elder Scrolls games" such as traveling around and righting wrongs or seeking riches
And just like that I don't give a fuck about Elder Scrolls Online! Maybe if it wasn't you know, World of Fucking Warcraft again and actually tried to be a first person MMORPG about Elder Scrolls I would have been interested. The above pretty much says it's going to be another cut and paste WoW job like TOR.
So AusGAF, I've got a query. I can't make a thread about it (and Australian opinions would be better anyway) but I've been thinking about picking up a tablet.
I figure loading stuff to read and general tablet-y stuff should be no big deal to work out myself, but I was hoping to throw some games on it. I was looking at mainly turn based stuff like Fallout 2/Baldur's Gate (and the ton of new old-school RPGs that have popped up recently) and point and click adventures. I've got a heap of both sitting around I haven't finished or started, since I've just been raiding Steam and GOG whenever there's been some good deals.
So is there a particular tablet to suit my needs here, or am I wasting my time at this point? iPads are pretty much the poster child for tablets but I'm not sure that's the way to go if I'm going to be running older DOS/Windows games along with my general inexperience with Apple computers. I was worried about compatibility or input issues, I don't want to buy something ridiculously expensive and find out it won't run any of the programs I want.
This win is Mourinho's seventh league championship title in 10 seasons, spread across four countries.
fuckin wow!
.
Welcome to footballAusGAF, don't listen to Choc or Salazar. They are crazy.If you can afford Mourinho, you can afford some good players. Same thing at Chelsea and Inter. When he won the Champions League final with Inter Milan there was not one Italian player on the pitch for them that night.

Well, Apple has like 2 phones out, Samsung has.... 5341?i bet Todd Howard thinks the MMO is shit
also if Samsung want to seriously compete with Apple they need to open stores like Apple have.
The fact if the iphone breaks and you take it to apple, and they replace it on the spot is a HUGE thing for people who rely on their phone for business
i've spoken to a lot of people and they said if they could swap a samsung phone on the spot if it breaks, they would go samsung
none of this 6-8 week shit. Apple has that sorted very well indeed.
Based on evidence of morrowind crashing a fair bit.Also good luck playing elder scrolls online when you have a combination of congested servers and routine game crashes.

Four day weekend whooo.
You do make me laugh Vince
Because people feel they get good value and a lot of fun out of them? Pretty crazy idea.I'm glad someone gets enjoyment from my posts on the matter. I lay awake at night trying to puzzle out a means to stop elder scrolls games from selling so well.

The story of Free Radical Design begins with one of gaming's milestones, and after almost nine years it ended with the studio's blood on several publisher's hands. Founded in April 1999, the Nottingham-based studio created the much-loved shooter series TimeSplitters and third-person psychic drama Second Sight during the PS2 era. But Haze, the company's final game, received a critical mauling, sold poorly, and shortly afterwards Free Radical entered administration.
This article began with the question 'Did Haze Kill Free Radical?' But after speaking to every key figure in the company's history, the story turned out to be much bigger than the poor reception of one title. It's about how big publishers sometimes manhandle the developers they work with, and how badly they handle change. It's about how they asphyxiated one of Britain's finest independent developers, and drove an industry legend out of the games business.
You can, it just goes into their inventory.I don't know if you can gift something when the recipient already owns it.
