- synthaxx, on 10/11/2008, -0/+197Thats....insane!
Special triple platinum geek card worthy. - bgrah449, on 10/12/2008, -8/+132It adds numbers (unless you make it subtract numbers (then it subtracts numbers)).
- Alucard010, on 10/11/2008, -6/+122I wonder what happens if you divide by zero?
- PrometheusZero, on 10/12/2008, -1/+103There are a lot of cool levels for Little Big Planet. Here's a completely impractical, but cool level where a Final Fantasy X song is played using blocks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vwn3zuMXok
- inactive, on 10/11/2008, -2/+103Whoever created that thing must be pretty smart. Wouldn't be surprised if the creator becomes an engineer or already is one.
- doublefelix, on 10/12/2008, -4/+93But can it calculate the National Debt?
- gage006, on 10/12/2008, -7/+81It's a game. You play it.
- TremorX, on 10/12/2008, -3/+71It turns into an Xbox360.
And immediately red-rings. - arunforce, on 10/12/2008, -1/+55Obviously the Playstation 3 creates a black hole.
Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. - NathanielJ, on 10/12/2008, -2/+53Your third sentence pretty much undid your second sentence.
- iLemon, on 10/12/2008, -9/+59I don't understand what you do in Little Big Planet.
- Frozenfuryblade, on 10/12/2008, -4/+46Thank you Captain Obvious.
- Zap2, on 10/12/2008, -5/+46AHHH
I need a PS3 now! - InfiniteNothing, on 10/12/2008, -0/+40A. It's called a Turing machine.
B. No, that would not be an example of one. - n8o8, on 10/12/2008, -1/+39Wow, it took the national debt to supplant the crysis meme. Well I guess our debt is good for something!
- Eriksrocks, on 10/12/2008, -1/+35Anyone care to explain how it works?
- TheCoreh, on 10/12/2008, -2/+34I think someone should go and build a PS3 using this. And then use it to run LittleBigPlanet, and build another PS3 inside of it. And again, again, again and again until the resulting recursion crashes the universe.
- Andrewe1, on 10/12/2008, -2/+31Im actually more impressed by the amount of objects and physics the ps3 can handle without a hiccup.
- Jon211, on 10/11/2008, -10/+39It is wasn't for the French text in the video I would have sworn that only someone from Korea could dedicate that much time to do something like that in a game.
- dansmeek, on 10/11/2008, -7/+32agreed. he should definitely look into computer engineering if he enjoys doing that as a hobby. thats a pretty advanced touring machine that most college students couldn't produce.
also, I WANT LBP BETA. I CANT WAIT! THERE IS ONLY ONE SOLUTION.
to freeze myself. - JaysonthePirate, on 10/12/2008, -3/+27Its a platforming game where people can submit user created levels. The video just goes to show the depth and flexibility of the level creator.
Its supposed to be really really fun. - Flashtone, on 10/12/2008, -4/+26this game is going to sell thousdands of ps3.. i'm buying one just for this game.
- NathanielJ, on 10/12/2008, -1/+22So basically your objection to it is that there's too much great content for it?
- appleofdischord, on 10/12/2008, -0/+20Turing. It's a Turing machine.
- inactive, on 10/12/2008, -1/+21This is probably the one of the few times where someone can say for sure...it'll never happen.
- JaysonthePirate, on 10/12/2008, -1/+19Too awesome. Although I don't understand why he didn't just make the whole thing automated. Strap a rocket onto it or something.
- Sabin, on 10/12/2008, -1/+19Damn, and I thought my chair just got really uncomfortable for no good reason. Sure enough, I am now sitting on a brick.
- S1ngular1ty1, on 10/12/2008, -5/+21That's what she said!
- Puppetfunk, on 10/12/2008, -5/+21I almost turned it off after he demonstrated adding and subtracting, but one he showed the whole mechanism It really caught my attention. That's amazing how someone could so all that in the BETA.
- NeverReturnKid, on 10/12/2008, -1/+17Reminds me of Garry's Mod for Half-Life 2.
- Khast, on 10/12/2008, -0/+15The Universe would implode upon itself. Anyone who played AD&D would know this is what happens when you put a bag of holding inside another bag of holding!!!
You may jeopardize the whole universe.... - apena89, on 10/12/2008, -1/+16oh, it does.
- inactive, on 10/12/2008, -2/+16HOLY ***** that is complicated...
- FENWAYFREAK, on 10/12/2008, -1/+15From the creators mouth. It uses "650 magnetic switches, 550 Wires, 470 pistons"
- FENWAYFREAK, on 10/12/2008, -4/+17Play. Create. Share.
- necromancer, on 10/12/2008, -0/+13Yeah, seriously, just plus or minus? Lazy bastard.
- iburyfamilyguy, on 10/12/2008, -1/+14In a similar fashion, here's a bit of sweet child o' mine. http://www.justin.tv/clip/ca7fb3192bd
- jhaks, on 10/12/2008, -0/+13As nickbeaton said it is probably done using boolean logic. With the basic boolean operators you can create a "full adder" which takes in a digit from two binary numbers and a carry over from the previous digit and produces the sum for that digit and the carry over for the next digit. You then chain these together to add all the digits. That's the most basic but slow way. Subtraction is done exactly the same way since in digital machines negative numbers are represented in a way that they can be added without changing the logic machine but will still result in the correct value.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adder_(electronics) - else7en, on 10/12/2008, -2/+15looks like each green line is an if/then command
- nickbeaton, on 10/12/2008, -0/+12its an 8 bit calculator
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_algebra_(logi ...
normally a circuit like this would be created on a bread board with different chips and wiring. - GRVeee2, on 10/12/2008, -0/+12WHY NOT!!?!?!!?!?!?
- inactive, on 10/12/2008, -3/+15good ol' racism. my favorite.
- eraser34, on 10/12/2008, -1/+12I preordered this today, this is truely one game for PS3 I see myself playing for more than a few days.
- xxA7XxaDdiCtxx, on 10/12/2008, -2/+13I have a 360 and all so I'm pro 360 but even I have to admit, no way in hell can the 360 handle this game without LBP being stripped to the bones
- inactive, on 10/12/2008, -2/+13And the world's most generic tagline award goes to...
- oemta, on 10/12/2008, -1/+12says a lot about the device you're using to type.
- inactive, on 10/12/2008, -1/+11When you have 6 dedicated vector processing units it's not a big deal.
- Evi1d33d, on 10/12/2008, -2/+11I guess it's a 'electronic' calculator because the position of the pistons represent binary 1 or 0.
- NateTheApe21, on 10/12/2008, -1/+10for LBP this is only the beginning
- 1nhuman, on 10/12/2008, -4/+13So like, how many layers is that between the actual switches in the CPU and the switches in the program? A k-zillion?
