MX 2002 Featuring Ricky Carmichael MX 2002 Featuring Ricky Carmichael
List Price: $19.99
Sale Price: $24.98

MX 2002 Featuring Ricky Carmichael admirably rides (on two knobby wheels) the line between casual motocross arcade game and hard-core simulation. It should please both audiences equally by offering stunning graphics, good controls, lots of options, and just enough realism. The game offers your standard modes of play. Exhibition lets you jump into a full race on your own, so you can practice tricks and surmise the competition. Freestyle mode lets you practice and get used to performing trick combos. Career sends you off to create your own custom rider and race against opponents to further your career (and unlock various bikes and extra tracks in the process). Finally there's also a Challenge mode (hidden in the options menu), which gives you a task of unlocking cool video clips of real riders performing the stunts. Of course, you can play Exhibition and Freestyle in split-screen multiplayer, which provides the ultimate and most satisfying challenges. Career mode lets you revel in the accurate bikes available, from 125cc models all the way up to 250cc monsters. Bikes handle about the same, but Career mode lets you dress your custom biker in licensed clothing and puts your number and name on the rider's back. While the physics--particularly the gravity modeling--is relaxed, allowing you more time to do the stunts, you still have to worry about power sliding and using the clutch to win races and stay upright. It's a satisfyingly deep nod toward simulation while remaining as fun and accessible as an arcade stunt racer should be. Naturally for a PS2 title, the graphics are sharp and the textures complicated and colorful. It's almost as good looking as the real thing, except the mud you kick up doesn't have to be washed off. --Andrew S. Bub Pros: Great mud-spattering graphics Deep arcade action, yet satisfying for the simulation crowd Plenty of riders and career mode options Cons: The music, though rockin', gets really repetitious really fast

MX 2002 Featuring Ricky Carmichael lets you ride like a champion, compete for rock-star status, or just cruise the open terrain for your moto kicks. The game is a blend of traditional racing and free-ride madness, with 30 pro riders from the 125cc, 250cc, and freestyle ranks, such as Mike LaRocco, Kevin Windham, Ezra Lusk, Carey Hart, and new amateur sensation James "Bubba" Stewart. There are more than 10 fully customizable bikes with tight, responsive controls, allowing you to pull huge wheelies, stoppies, tail whips, and more. Freestyle mode includes such gut-busting stunts as the Bus Jump and Step-Up Challenges, and career mode offers the chance to win sponsorship deals and factory offers.

Murder, the Mob, prostitution, drugs, innovative (but illegal) financial dealings, and the brilliant use of technology for ill-gotten gain, all have been involved in the schemes of unscrupulous casino owners, employees, and gamblers throughout the decades of legal gambling. Gaming in Nevada is more stringently controlled than anywhere else in the United States, and in License to Steal, investigative reporter and editor Jeff Burbank provides a lively and highly readable case history account of some of the most significant--and most fascinating--cases adjudicated by the Nevada Gaming Control Board and Commission during a pivotal time for the growing gaming industry. It is the responsibility of these two agencies to review the licensing of new and established casinos, investigate reports of suspected wrongdoing, and punish those found guilty. In providing a balanced and objective yet very entertaining account of these sometimes complex cases, Jeff Burbank uses legal documents, meeting transcripts, insider interviews, and contemporary newspaper reports. The book is enhanced by the author's lively and informative recent interviews with key figures in gaming regulation, past and present.

Gran Turismo 5 is an amazing racing game. Let's get that out of the way right now. Among mainstream console titles, you cannot find a better simulation of what it's like to really race cars, and the selection of cars and tracks is remarkable. The graphics and sound are unparalleled in the genre, and the GT Life mode has a really satisfying sense of progression to it that will keep you playing over and over again. Now that all that is said, this can still be a really frustrating game sometimes, so let's talk about its flaws.

For instance, one of the major selling points for Gran Turismo 5 was the belated introduction of car damage to the series. Many players don't enjoy the "bumper cars" aspect of damage-less racing, as your car can unrealistically fly into walls without taking a scratch and harm opposing drivers with well-timed collisions. Well, the game has car damage... But you won't really notice any damage until you've played for about thirty hours already. This is because car damage in GT5 is progressive, as in it gets worse as your driver level goes up in the game, reaching full effect at Level 40, which is about as far as a regular player can ever be expected to get. Also, only premium cars have damage effects, a small percentage of the number of cars you can drive. So anyone sold to the new game on car damage will likely be disappointed as they spend dozens of hours before ever experiencing the new feature.

Otherwise, the primary selling points are pretty well-executed. Go-kart racing and NASCAR both feature pretty prominently in the new title, simulated realistically (go-karts will feel totally different from the rest of the game's vehicles). Jeff Gordon lends his voice to the game for NASCAR racing lessons, and fans of the British show Top Gear will be glad to find The Stig even has a cameo appearance in the game. The Top Gear Test Track is a pretty fantastic course to race on, and makes a great licensed addition.

Because there is so much in GT5, the load times are terrible. There is a huge optional hard drive install to lessen load times, and yet the loading still takes far too long. Especially when you're doing license tests that won't take more than a minute for each segment, you'll find yourself watching a loading screen longer than you're actually driving. Server overload makes the load times worse because of the amount of online data being pulled down all the time as well, so logging off of PlayStation Network can make your load times better. But the fact remains that loading is too long when online communities are discussing the best hard drive to use to get around long loads.

While watching those load screens, there's one more irritating aspect: The repetitive music. There is a ton of music in this game, and on the regular menu screens, you can go weeks without hearing a repeat tune. However, inexplicably, the game uses only very specific songs for specific parts of the menus, so you'll end up hearing certain songs an annoying amount of the time. One tuning area plays "The Entertainer" every time, which is kind of an odd choice. The load screens cycle through about three synthy tunes, which will all get old fast. The rest of the music is very well-done, it's just difficult to understand why the game wouldn't cycle through more of its soundtrack for the prevalent load screens.

Despite all this, Gran Turismo 5 is a terrific game. Feeling the different physics for each new car you buy can really be a neat experience, and there's a nice balance of challenge in the game that will keep you practicing for certain races. Some features weren't implemented particularly well, but that doesn't stop GT5 from being an absolute must-buy. The game's dedication and obsession for cars is infectious, and that's a really beautiful thing.

Flash Game Licensing: A Win-Win Situation

Product inventors aren't the only ones who can benefit from the concept of licensing. One very popular type of licensing benefits both Flash game developers and the companies that license Flash games. Read on to learn about how Flash game licensing works and how both the licensor and licensee benefit from this type of licensing.

Flash Games
Flash games are online games that are created using vector animation software. These games are very popular with online users and come in a wide range of categories including action, arcade style, and puzzle games. There are several benefits of using Flash to create games versus using other types of software. One is that Flash games load faster than games developed with other software programs. Another good reason to use Flash for games is to give the end user a richer gaming experience. Flash games are often very colorful and have moving game pieces or other features that make Flash gaming enjoyable for users.

Flash Game Licensing
When someone develops a Flash game, they can try to market and distribute it on their own, but they are more likely to license the game to a large company. In most instances, the licensee is not going to sell the Flash games to end users. Instead, the company will make the Flash games available for free in order to drive traffic to a site. If a company makes a free Flash game available, many people may visit their site and end up clicking on ads or making a purchase. This can help companies earn ad revenue or make more product sales.

Types of Licenses
When Flash games are licensed, this is typically called a sponsorship, and there are two main types of sponsorship. Each type gives the licensor and licensee different rights. In an exclusive sponsorship, the sponsor is paying the game developer to have their branding on all versions of the Flash game. This means that Flash games may be branded with the sponsor's logo and other branding materials. In some cases, a sponsor may want all of the rights to a Flash game. This means that the sponsor can distribute the game, claim to be the developer of the game, or edit the code for the game. Another type of Flash game licensing is known as a primary sponsorship. The type of licensing is similar to an exclusive sponsorship, except that the licensor is allowed to sell other non-exclusive licenses to the game that do not have the sponsor's branding attached. The developer can edit the game, claim authorship, enter the game in development contests, and advertise their own services within the game itself.

Benefits
There are benefits to both types of Flash game licensing. An exclusive sponsorship benefits developers because they can earn a good flat rate for the exclusive license. Some sponsors will also contribute to the testing of Flash games, so developers don't have to bear this burden alone. Sponsors benefit because they have a game branded with their name and logo that can be distributed online. The major drawback for developers is that once the exclusive license is sold to a sponsor, they cannot continue selling non-exclusive licenses to other sponsors, which means their revenue is capped. A primary sponsorship benefits developers because they have more control over the games they develop and can earn a good deal of revenue from selling non-exclusive licenses to their games. The primary sponsor benefits because their branded game version is distributed all over the Internet, bringing them traffic and ad revenue.

Do you need a small game license to hunt possum in Wisconsin?

My friend owns a farm outside of the town I live in and he claims there are a lot of possum out in his pasture which is a bit of a nu sense. Do you need a small game license to shoot possum in the state of Wisconsin? Thanks in advance for your help.

There's a reason it's called a "Hunting License". If you are hunting, you need a license. That license is your permit to do so. Simple as that. I also have to wonder why your farmer friend has opossum in his pasture. There would have to be some kind of attraction for them to show up there in numbers sufficient for him to think they had become "a bit of a nuisance". Opossum are creatures of the woods and thickets and not known for exposing themselves to fox, coyotes, the big cats, and birds of prey by venturing out into the open and cover-less countryside where they have no place to hide or escape if attacked. I might be more inclined to think your friend has woodchucks (groundhogs or marmots) which are content to reside out in the open where they can see predators coming in time to duck into the holes and dens they dig into the pasture land. Makes more sense to me. Be safe. Be careful. Get a license.
