Why does every link on the internet have to open a NEW WINDOW. When are people going to stop using Internet Explorer and get on board with FireFox? And even IE has tabbed browsing now. New windows is a thing of the past for crying out loud.whitey6

it has nothing to do with the browser. it is hard-coded into the page. Sites do this so that you won't navigate away from their site by clicking on links. all links open in a new browser so that your original browser page stays at their site.

If you open a new tab you still stay on their page. It just on a different tab in the same window instead of on some other window buried beneath a hundred other stupid windows that are slowing down your computer.

you have to understand, some companies don't update their websites to use new features. hell, i'd venture to say that atleast 50% of the webpages on the internet don't support any browser other than IE5 or IE6.

But enough of all that talk, I should probably say something about the vest before I accidentally hijack this thread. 10 pounds of force... sounds.... painful. I think that vest would distract me from game-play more than it would immerse me in it.

I can already see the ads: Experience the effects of car crashes, bullets penetrating your body and fists crushing your every rip like you never have before. Order now and you'll receive this incineration kit with 3 gallons of fuel and 100 matches for the ultimate flamethrower feeling. But wait, there's more: These knives never need sharpening and give your opponent the impression that he's actually disemboweling you right now while still in the comfort of his home.

Instead of left clicking a link, click the scroll wheel (providing your mouse has one.) It'll open in a new tab instead.

Yeah, same. M$ is doing a great job so far, but they really don't fit in in the gaming world...at least not yet. So, they made a couple of good titles? They seem almost TOO comfortable already...pisses me off lol.

It's like a new hotshot hockey player (M$) joining the elite hockey players (Sony and Ninty) for the first time. The new hockey player had a lot of money right off the bat, and paid his place to get to the top where all the elite are. But then again, he paid the right ppl and along the way got SOME training (good game companies). AND, the new hockey player scored a couple of lucky shots. HE woos the ppl who don't usually watch hockey because he makes it seem entertaining by using his backhand shots (Xboxlive) that no one else on the team can do...YET. BUT he does those backhand shots really well, no doubt. Though, that doesn't mean he is accepted among the whole team, or its fans...kno wat i mean? He (M$) still has a long way to go before he can prove to himself that he belongs there, that he belongs to play...and not just because he wants to get more money, ESPECIally outta the fans that just come to the games to only watch his famous backhand shot (monthly fees for XBL).

lol couldn't be more off topic.

BTW, that vest thing is wayyyy coool. I can totally see that happening. That's Awesome.

of course the 3rd party rumble devices will work with the ps3. however if the developers did not program rumble into there game these devices will not rumble. they dont guess when to rumble they are told when to. its whether or not developers are putting rumble in the games which is not likely because the ps3 controller doesnt rumble. maybe when alot of 3rd party rumble devices are out developers might throw it in but right now i doubt its in any of the games.

whenever  i shoot someone or there is an explosion in resistance my whole room rumbles!!

if people are pissed about no rumble then buy a dang sound system.

The vest is cool in theory but in reality it will just be a gimmick, i mean unless they plan on making dozens of different sizes it will only really work properly on a fraction of the users.

it has nothing to do with the browser. it is hard-coded into the page. Sites do this so that you won't navigate away from their site by clicking on links. all links open in a new browser so that your original browser page stays at their site.

thats so selffish of them, im going to construct a letter.

now going on topic, wont this ruin that gaming idea where you have fans, lights and ruble on keyboards and stuff, i forget the name.
