Dies Irae
Dies irae, dies illa
solvet saeclum in favilla,
teste David cum Sybilla.
Quantus tremor est futurus,
quando judex est venturus,
cuncta stricte discussurus.

or instead of UT fast paced perhaps a more strategic FPS... Like socom or Ghost Recon with multplayer capabilities. Like the Bluetooth and IrDA (is that how it goes) or possibly over the internet. I know you can't get the full detail and everything from those games but something like quake but the ability to crouch and get in a prone position as well as being able to hide urself oooo and a sniper rifle so you can take off peoples heads :twisted: .
or... :) we could play a game like tribes...
us the same quake thingy wutever you call it. and just add sum jetpacks and outside terrains... errr I suppose multiplayer outside games would really get low fps... or put a limit on the number of players in a game like 6 or so... you see that many monsters in quake. But then all this would take up alot of space and unless u have a built in blue tooth or SD memory and have a CF networking card which I think most do. You would have to empty out your main memory just to play it... and probably have atleast 15 megs cuz doesnt that kinda act as the RAM for temporary files. I was wondering also do all pocket pcs have that built in storage cuz I'm wondering why they couldn't just add that to the main memory oh well no big deal. any way back to the game. Hmm vehicles... hmmm instead of having all 5 vehicls perhaps we just have one... like the shrike (the plane) or the grav cycle ( the motorcycle hovering thing) and we can't forget the spinfusor which is probably one of the most used weapons on tribes. and then change the staple gun from quake to a plasma blaster and u pretty much got all the weapons... man all this must have been either painfully boring or very interesting to see how dumb I am. If n e one plays tribes or has a good idea of the limits of a pocket pc please add to this cuz all of this seems like a little too much for the pocket pc's as of now could handle... well that new ipaq might be able too with the 128 megs of ram

You were asking about the memory and how it is connected with RAM well if I am not mistaken all PPC use that feature of saving to the flash RAM. Like normal RAM when all the power is gone it resets it's self that why by pulling batteries out of a device all built in information that is not ROM is destroyed (Please feel free to correct me if I went wrong somewhere.)

Hmm so you are suggesting we use the Quake engine to create a new FPS for the PPC and you want to have a JetPack and perhaps some cars? Well, I think the Jetpack idea would work out but I still think that cars in an FPS at this stage would be to complicated.

Is there anyway to use Blue tooth or WIFI or BT to communicate without a router? (I am sorry if this is a dumb question but I know almost nothing about the new PPC Wirless hardware stuff.)

:oops: Thanks James I get very confussed with this new stuff. So can I use BT just like I would IRDA to send stuff like text to other PPC users?

ad hoc?

Perhaps verhicles would be a little too much but I would love to see that work... and thanks for the info guyz. Vehicles such as some sort of transporter would be nice to coordinate attacks better but the fps for the quake is already bad enough (well I guess I can't say bad but u get the idea) 11 fps is decent, well thats wut I get with the weapons being drawn. But we may need a keyboard to play the game I stated above seeing as it will need more commands, could n e one recommend a keyboard that is cheaper than most. Which is better for gaming? the snap on keyboards or the mini fullsized keyboards? I have another Idea for a game. Wut about a game like sims online for the pocket pc :) that would be awsome, without that monthly fee just to play online :evil: .
And another off topic question... would it be better to get a SDmemory for stuff like online gaming and ohter online things because most if not all netwark cards are CF, would I ever need that extra memory? Also a game that could be stylus only besides chatting (as u see I am all multiplayer) Would be a game like full of mini games such as mario party online but not so... well you know how marioparty was. You could have minigames like Whack-A-Mole and other things that are required so you can gain points and stay in the game. Or wut about a game... that doesn't have to be multiplayer but would be nice would be a game call :idea: SURVIVAL and you are a man or woman that is stranded out in the middle of nowhere trying either to survive or make it out of where ever he or she is. You start off with a pocket knife or something that he just happened to be carrying with him and some provision that he salvaged from the plane wreck boat wreck wutever :) then if you are on an island you must attempt to build a boat or try to get a plane's attention with only 2 flares :) or fashion a crude boat. You have to gather certain Items. Here's how the objectives could be
1. after the crash with just your pocket knife and the provision you must fashion yourself somesort of shelter and then that night it rains :D and depending on how much of wut you need you gather for your shelter will increase the quality and prove to be better because if you make a crude shelter without gathering enough.
2. Then the next day when the rain settles you are you can scout out the Island or you can choose to go and gather pieces for a weapon of some sort, a spear would be the most likely or you could spend all day trying to fashion a bow, and then you must spend part of the next day trying to gather some strait sticks to act as arrows. (each day could be like 24 minutes and you could tell the time of day buy the way the lighting is.)
3. Now you are on your own but you main objective is to survive by gathering food once your provisions run low and to make a better shelter and to gather water which is a must so you have to find someway to hold water, which I think could be the bottles that you took from the wreck that originally had water in them. And to someway build a boat. depending on how much of the need pieces you could find will be the quality the boat. and you need to get enough food to last you the trip home. But then gettin off the island should require some luck because if you are using a crude boat and you travel out and you get hit by a storm then you would be in trouble and have to start from you last save point.

and if you are not lost on an Island wut about in some rainforest with a set of mountains you must get to and climb to the top and hanglide to a village that is hard to access on foot, but if you choose you can travel to that village on foot but you will ahve to go through some obstacles and the traveling will take days so you have to stop and find shelter and carry a weapon because you know there will be animals either to hunt or u will be hunted :) and noticed how I said lost in the rainforest yet you know where a village is... well lets just say he saw it when he was flying over the forest. well some of the obstacles could be there are some jaguars up ahead and you must find a way to distract them and the solution could be to hunt some animals and give them to the jags and run away because once they finish that they come after you. and a quick sand (which is actually slow). well my fingers are getting tired and I am sure of you are tired of reading so if I left anything out I am sure you can piece things together. Oh yeah and you die of thirst and starvation and sickness if you don't find the herbs needed. THis game would be awsome and if was multiplayer you could do things like cooperate with eachother to survive but not necessarily try to make it alive but to survive as long as you can. You could perhaps set up camps with the other people of the game or go you seperate ways and compete for the best food spots and what not. Ok well now I am really going to stop I hope you guyz enjoyed reading all of this... yeah right... I but I your eyes are sore now. You have a headache from reading so much with your monitor lights shining back into your face. Imagining this game in your mind thinking I am an idiot. And probably not wanting to finish reading this but have to because you want to read about my reuest. Well I'm sorry when I get an Idea in my mind I can go on for hours.

this may be drifting off topic slightly, I suppose its on the 3d subject, but has anybody played this:

on a ppc2003 device does the increased speed make them playable or are they still slow as crap?
