Daily Radar is owned by Imagine- but why do *THEY* get the exclusives and not as much IGNPC or even PCGamer? As for incite... they seem to already have a major foothold in Europe (there are a lot of.de sites with the incite banner.. which ALSO often get a lot of exclusives, such as a huge batch of TF2 images or a few Halo shots)
And by the way... exactly how was my post at all trolling? It doesn't make any sense. Daily Radar and Incite both cheapen the community for different reasons. Daily Radar for their biased and sometimes idiotic reviews. (Did you see their Q3 vs UT peice? UT has the most advanced bots ever... on bots: "They both suck, Edge to Q3.". UT has a very nice interface that remembers "hey, we dont have to use our arrow keys for this anymore" but they shot that down saying "Q3's is more gamey!")
Incite just takes the PCXL 'sex n' games' philosphy a step further, only without the humor which makes PCXL a good read.

Sid Meier is a great game designer- his name is out there for two reasons though.
1. His games are popular. 2. His name is on all of them, like he said.
If someone came out with a game called "Joe Shmuck's Hairball Toss" and nobody knew abotu it, his name wouldnt be anywhere. However, conversly, someone would have been REAL popular if they got their name as "XXXX's Starcraft" or "XXXX's Half-Life"

Speaking of "On-again, off-again"... the HHG movie's still in script-writing. Ah well. It *IS* Douglas Adams writing it, so it can be forgiven. Several times in fact.

What i don't understand is why Incite and Daily Radar get all the exclusives. I dont know a single person who likes Incite magazine, and Daily Radar is pretty much a laughing stock in the gaming community. I mean, they gave the Princess Mononoke movie a "MISS" MISS! And they gave a "Hit!" to the new 007 flick even though they said, and i quote "this is not a good movie" in the review.
yet they get all the first look high-quality movies and interviews.

Ambition is wanting to become better- but it doesnt nessisarily require possessions. You can be an ambitious monk or something, aspiring to become a better monk.

Human beings, and most other animals, have fought for generations. Human beings specifically have always fought for power and wealth.
The reason communism fails is that it lacks that drive to get wealthy, so money doesnt end up going into the system as much as it does in a system where greedy corporations go multinational ---- Don't underestimate the power of peanut brittle
Communism is one of those amazing ideas- IN THEORY. However in practice it fails for several reasons.
1. A major driving force for the greater whole of humanity is greed. Everyone wants more things than other people, Communism goes against that human drive.
2. Communism has been established in areas with centrally planned economies- where the only one that truly owns anything is the government. Going back to 'greed' this means that everyone in the country is poor except those who are in power... either this, or NOBODY has wealth at all.
Communism means everyone gets an equal share.. what's an equal share of zero? ---- Don't underestimate the power of peanut brittle

Hey, look at it this way. If they get rich enough they might launch off into space only to get shot down by a passing World War II fighter plane.
