to my known recollection...tracing ip's for submitting anonymous information via regulated tcp/ip protocal across a network of any kind without having the information provider's discretionary permission IS a minor, but still, a federal offense...also, the terminal connection your acquiring the ip address from is an unsecured location in a university campus where many individuals have access to it...so you cannot hold me, as a lone individual, solely responsible for what appears in this forum. Display this ip address or other personal information here again...i will be forced to contact your remote host of the violations you have made...nahhh just kidding...i'll stop, really.

systems are getting so hard to develop now and require so much resources such as money, people, and time...only large corporations such as microsoft and sony will be able to give what it takes to program games in the future...no third party support will be present.

There's nothing wrong with PS2, it's just that developers have only just started working on it. Don't expect the first generation games to be out of this world. Even the Dreamcast hasn't reached it's full potential yet.
