Basically some punks attempted to mug Copperfield but he used a little of his illusionary skills to trick them into thinking he had nothing on him. They were caught later. I myself, if I pulled that off, would SO be rubbing it in the faces of those guys from the other side of those prison bars :D.

I just wanted to share this with you....
As you may recall META bot yesterday was intergrated with a "learning program, " and has been learning at an expoentional rate.
Today I performed a search from tendo city for the keyword "comics". As astonishing as it sounds simply threw metabots own learning and discovery procalls with no assestance from me. Meta bot chose to instead search for "comics parent form".
As increadable as it sounds metabot has learned this site is a forum and "comics" was a parent forum on this site, adjusting the search keywords accordening.
At first I thought this might has been some uncertiny pricaple from the complexiety of the engine. But then I searched for "lazyfatbum" and keywords where changed to just "Lazy".
could metabot be growing beound it's original programming or has my software demonistrated the uncertity priniciple where complex machines can act in unpredictable ways.
Try some searches for your self and you'll see what I mean.
Quote:Mystic Midway: Phantom Express
Publisher: Philips | Developer: Philips
Continuing the CD-i's brilliant tradition of games that encourage the player with mean-spirited insults, Mystic Midway: Phantom Express prides itself as a "nightmare simulator." The game is a first-person roller-coaster ride (literally) that travels through bad dreams, and the player is charged with the task of shooting down visual representations of trauma experienced during the various stages of one's life.
The CD-i: A constant reminder of the worthless life you lead.
This makes for a really depressing experience. In fact, Phantom Express is one of the few videogames that leaves you questioning your worth as a human being. It's the soundtrack that does it, really. Take the first stage, which has you shooting childhood fears like safety pins and leaky diapers. Throughout the entire level, you'll hear babies crying, the off-key singing of nursery songs, and a woman yelling things like, "I never wanted children! YOU were the one who wanted children!" This continues on for many stages, culminating with the "old-age" level, which ends with your family telling you they don't love you, and that they can't wait for you to die. What a fun game!

... then do no by ANY means see Hostel.
Seriously. In the Sea of Shit, Hostel blew Saw out of the water. It was horrible in every aspect. Such a long, stupid plot about stereotypical American teens, only out looking for weed and sex, and then after an hour of that terrible plot, they ... well, I don't want to ruin it, (as if it can be ruined any more than it was from the day it was released.)
They leave you with a positive feeling about it, but in that sort of noncommital way review sites are famous for.
At any rate, the actual information they provide is interesting. For a while, the game seems to be pretty linear (which I don't like, but then again Earthbound was pretty linear as well through most of it). The story actually seems to be much deeper than Earthbound, and compelling. However, it is still wacky as ever.
It seems as though they haven't yet beaten the game from the way they talk about it though.
At any rate, can't wait to see them announce that US release. I mean, they BETTER release it over here, after NOT releasing the compilation package for so long. (I dream of a preorder deal where you get that special Mother 1&2 game, but that is but a dream at this point...)
The White Chamber is a newly released adventure game in the vein of Lucasarts and Sierra's old-school games. However, a closer looks shows that The White Chamber is a bit different from those games. You see, TWC's main influences seem to be Eternal Darkness, Silent Hill, and animes. All of these things come together to create an interesting experience. Oh yeah, did I mention that TWC can be obtained by the low, low price of FREE?
You can download it from Studio Trophis's website [a group of independent developers]. The file size is about 300MB so it'll take a while, but it's really worth it. Seriously, if you like adventure games and don't try this one out then you are the lamest person in the world and if I met you in real life, I would probably punch you in face.
