im going to make this simple for all of you calling for murder charges. YOU DO NOT CHARGE SOMEONE FOR A MURDER IN A CLEAR CASE OF SUICIDE. Lori Drew did not put the noose around her neck and jump, the little girl MADE THAT CHOICE. While we may not like it and feel we need to do SOMETHING, there is nothing to be done, the girl made her choice.
She took her OWN life , FULL STOP. LORI DREW IS NOT RESPONSIBLE. Im sorry but she was a stupid girl that threw the most precious gift in the universe away. You cannot pin this on anyone but the girl. Manslaughter indeed, grow the fuck up and realize the world is NOT a nice place and while what Lori and friends did may be wrong to you, IT IS NOT A CRIME.
ACtually MS went so far as to offer a free HDD or mem card to those that bought units with not enough memory to run NXE. You DO have the hardware to run it, you choose not to.
TO be fair, tobacco was sued sucessfully not for their product, but for their deceptive practices in modifying said product to cause more harm/increase addiction. At least it was my understanding that this facet of the case was the smoking gun.
So what, the guy cant work in his professional field anymore? I get that you want to protect your IP, but not at the cost of a very highly qualified individual's livelyhood. If Nvidia makes an infringeing part, you sue them, but you dont stop people from taking jobs. Chilling effect indeed! I have friends that would think twice about working for Big Blue now. Makes me nervous of the thought of signing your brain over to a corporation.
THere are other laws that handle those situations. Telling a person he cant work in his professional field because he USED to work for you is wrong and unethical. People > Corporations.

The girl took her own life, stop trying to pin murder on a SUICIDE. SHE KILLED HERSELF YOU RETARDS.

Also, Sony OWNS those movies, MS owns no movies

I liked country back in the day, before the mess of pop it became. Damn you Billy Ray Cyrus.
In a Republic such as the US, the sheep has a shotgun to keep the wolves honest.
Im typing this on a Dell D830 with a 1920x1080 17" screen on it.....
My first thought was the same. If its so short, is it gonna be cheaper?
Steam will not strip out a manufacturer's DRM. Bioshock via Steam still has draconian DRM in place.
Then they should be blocking the product, not the man.

Just like the parents that have successfully sued the alcohol companies for people OD'ing.....o wait.

In almost all retail, the majority of theft occurs from employees.
Costco is different, you are a member of a club that has rules you agreed to in writing and paid for the privelege
Happens to me everytime i use my debit card at 7-11 the $5 cash back button is so close to the 'no' button,

The lifetime of this game was unreasonably short to be expected to eat the $150 as a loss.
Taken to its logical conclusion, your brain is the most dangerous weapon of all.
Oil futures are virtual too, very very rarely is an oil futures contract fulfilled.
I would imagine that Ring of Blood in Nagrand serves as a good prototype.
I refuse to be saddled with morals regarding video games while the publishers are doing their very best to strip me of the right of first sale.
Steam doesnt automatically mean that the publisher's DRM is stripped off. There are games on Steam from third parties with Securerom
I have SMS completely shut off on my phone. I get funny looks from friends when I tell them that.
