  1. Re:What you mean ... on Games Industry Sees 12 Billion in Sales For 2006 · · Score: 1

    Thats nonsense. The 360 has been out longer. Its a proven console, and it has a larger market penetration (more consoles in homes than the wii or the ps3). Knowing this as a game dev or publisher you can see there is very little risk to doing a title on the 360. And there are lots of good titles on the 360 currently whereas on the ps3 for instance I haven't seen anything worth shaking a 650$ stick at. Plus if you own the 360 and another console you might be more inclined to get the 360 version because you can earn achievment points.

    I wouldnt say they are loosing the console war I'd say they are slowly gaining ground against nearly everyone who thinks they should just fail.

    I'm not a huge MS fanboy I'm just stating the facts as I see em.

  2. Better option on RIAA Admits 70 Cent Price is 'In the Range' · · Score: 1

    Sigh yet another example of big businesses keeping their treasured consumer's best interests in mind. Next thing you'll find out that Clear Channel plays what the RIAA wants not what the consumer wants... Better music marketing strategies exist and are poised to fill in the gap. http://www.bitmunk.com/ just launched their beta 2 and have almost all of CD Baby's content for sale in a place where demand and the artist dictates the prices of music not the RIAA.

  3. Why put it on a disc? on Movie Studios OK Download-to-Burn DVDs · · Score: 2, Funny

    So wait... you wait hours and hours downloading a dvd sized video and then you have to burn it to a disc? Sounds awesome, maybe after we burn it to disc we can copy it to a stack of floppies. Why not put a NIC and a harddrive in an entertainment center?

  4. Another gem too old to be considered on Game Tunnel's Indie Games of the Year 2006 · · Score: 1

    http://www.starportgame.com/ Starport Galactic empires is a strategic space MMO akin to Tradewars. Its free to play and has been up and running for 2 years now. Its been constantly improved and developed on and they just got a really cool soundtrack.
