description: #<p>Longing to return to Middle-Earth? EA has released Battle for Middle-Earth II, which draws on characters and scenes from both the books and the movie. <em>Tom Bom, jolly Tom, Tom Bombadillo!</em></p>
|
|
<blockquote><p>Now that they have both sets of rights they can pull assets from the books and the films, so you get the best of both worlds. You have artwork and likeness from the actors and scenes from the movie, as well as being able to use units like Tom Bombadil.</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
That's right, Tom Bombadil is in there. When you summon him he sings and prances around the map before laying waste to everything he sees. Can I just say how awesome that is?</P>
|
|
<p>I think I will. It is very, very awesome.</p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
<p>In addition to Tom, Battle for Middle-Earth II has a well-executed hero play, good graphics, and... well, you'll have to read the review to find out!</p>

Are our civil liberties fundamentally at odds with national security concerns in the age of nuclear terrorism? Three prominent panelists recently debated the issue, and Hannibal was there to report on their exchange. Hannibal, who covers the technological and social aspects of national security for Ars, also weighs in with his own thoughts, and provides some historical context for the debate.
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Posner stated that the criminal justice system relies on deterrence and incapacitation to address crime. The "deterrence" part stems from the potential criminal's presumed desire to avoid incarceration at all costs. Clearly, the deterrence value of the threat of incarceration is exactly zero to a suicide bomber, so in that respect the criminal justice system is quite poorly equipped to prevent terrorism. Furthermore, the criminal justice system presumes a crime rate, and works to keep that rate down to manageable levels. In the age of nuclear and biological terrorism, Posner argued, we can't really afford a "terrorism rate," even if that rate is really low. All it takes is one spectacular attack to do us in, he reminded the audience. </p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The issues that the three panelists—all important figures in their respective areas of law—addressed are among the weightiest and timeliest problems that we face today. Read on to get a full sense of the contours and direction of the civil liberties vs. national security debate from three of that debate's most knowledgeable voices.

description: #<p>The Mac mini is the third Apple computer to make the jump from PowerPC to Intel. Along with a new CPU it also received more USB ports, integrated graphics, Front Row, and remote control. That's right, integrated graphics. Just last year, Apple was trashing PCs with integrated graphics on the G4 Mac mini website. Now the company is shipping a mini with the Intel GMA950 chipset, and people are talking:</p>
|
|
<blockquote><p>The biggest topic of discussion and opinion slinging online is Apple's decision to go with an Intel integrated graphics chipset. That has reportedly caused a lot of people to postpone their purchases. There are a number of reasons for the outcry, and rest assured we'll touch on them throughout this review. Most importantly, we'll try our best to determine how much that decision will hurt the Mini's performance and sway purchasing decisions one way or another.</p></blockquote>
|
|
<p>Do the Intel Mac mini's new features combine to make a compelling upgrade to its G4 predecessor? Read on and find out!</p>

|
|
<blockquote><p>We at the Orbiting HQ were able to have some benchmarks run on an acquaintance's Dell Inspiron 9100 with a 3.2GHz Pentium 4 HT chip running OS X 10.4.4, and decided that including the benchmarks from this machine would prove to be both interesting if not illustrative of what non-Apple x86 machines may be capable of if they could run Mac OS X (legally). </p></blockquote>

description: #<p>Ever wanted to live the life of a graffiti artist, but can't afford the spray paint and legal costs? Check out this new title that lets you go on a virtual tagging spree.</p>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><p>You have to realize that you're going to step in a lot of controversy just by making a game about graffiti. You can do it without a huge amount of fuss, but it better be light hearted and cartoony, like Jet Grint/Set Radio back on the Dreamcast. When clothing designer Marc Ecko set out to making Getting Up though, he wanted to actually show the tagging subculture, as real and gritty as he could make it. The fact that an outsider was this vocal about eating everyone else's lunch made waves too, Ecko's frank speech at DICE got a ton of play. If he wanted buzz, he got it.</p></blockquote>
|
|
<p>Buzz is good, but so is innovative game play. Does Getting Up deliver the goods?</p>

description: #<p> In addition to the usual <a href="http://arstechnica.com/guides/buyer/system-guide-200601.ars">three-tiered System Guide</a>, we occasionally supplement it to bring you more specialized build-it-yourself machines. These will be designed with a specific purpose in mind, and the components will reflect that. The February 2006 edition marks the third appearance of the Ultimate Budget Box.</p>
|
|
<blockquote><p>To all those people clamoring for a minimalist Budget Box: this is it. Look around inside most corporate offices, where most computers need to handle a few Office documents and light Internet use. They don't need to be able to burn CDs or handle 3D-intensive games, but they do need to be reliable and affordable. Lots of consumers out there probably want a similar box, an appliance that lets them get onto the Internet, take care of e-mail, and do a few documents . . . Low-cost, reliability, and quality are key. That is what the Ultimate Budget Box is about: not skimping on components, but not loading it up with features either.</p></blockquote>
|
|
<p>This is the perfect system to build for your parents (unless you frequently find them on the same Unreal Tournament 2004 server you frequent), spouse, or anyone else who does not need bleeding-edge performance. Come see what you can build for under US$550.</p>

description: #<p>Ars reviews the PC version of MX vs. ATX Unleashed. Is this a quick-and-dirty port from the Xbox or PS2, or is there enough here to make the PC version worthwhile?</p>
|
|
<blockquote><p>You have to wonder what a year-old game developed originally for the PS2 is going to look like on the PC. We're not going to be talking about the flashiest graphics here, and often with ports of this sort once you move the game into higher resolutions it brings out the flaws of the graphics and textures. Is MX vs. ATV Unleashed going to be able to stand up?</p></blockquote>

description: #<p>As game developers explore new ways to involve players in the production process, the gaming industry will have to change and adapt. Are open standards and interoperability the wave of the future for player-driven games?</p>
|
|
<blockquote><p>The vast majority of conventional games allow players to participate in preconstructed stories. An elaborate series of objectives are provided, and the story unfolds as those objectives are completed. What if players could create their own objectives for themselves and for each other? What if player communities could be leveraged in the content-production process to reduce the cost of developing new material? These are the questions that game developers are beginning to ask as a whole new generation of advanced gaming technology emerges.</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>Petroglyph (this seems to be their first game) seems to think they can do it better. Like Mulder I want to believe, but I've been burnt so many times. Like an idiot though, I keep coming back to bed, hoping this time maybe LucasArts won't hit me. All I want to do is to have X-wings as my units and blow up TIE fighters. Just let me do that, guys, and I'll at least be middlingly happy. Oh yeah, and make the space combat 3D. Okay?</p></blockquote>

|
<p>With such a rich story to draw upon, was the developer Petroglpyh able to live up to the title's potential?</p>
