This teaser for the new Aliens: Colonial Marines game, just happens to say it all. not the date and IP address on the computer screen. Happily, command line interfaces are still in use, hehehehe.
Personally, I kind of hope that someday in the far-far future, that the Internet will span the galaxy using some sort of technology much like BattleTech’s HyperPluse Generator, instead of becoming a collection of disparate planetary networks.
