  4. Re:That is fast! on Fallout: New Vegas Coming This Fall, Trailer Released · · Score: 1

    Nicely said. I played through DA:O The first time, and being that this is my first time playing a game of this type, (choose responses and it affects love/hate relationships) I found it very interesting that each set of characters has things that they feel and care about.

    That said, i'm on my second round playing through and I'm as enthralled by the story as the first time. you miss things playing it only once.

  7. Re:many slaves don't want freedom... too much work on iPad Is a "Huge Step Backward" · · Score: 1

    Didnt we used to do these back in grade school? I believe they were called Mad Libs!

    I own (NOUN), and so can only (ADVERB). Last I checked however it performed its primary function (NOUN) perfectly well without doing so.

    True, I do have to (VERB) (PROPERNOUN), etc onto it or off it, but even that doesn't require spending any more money with (PROPERNOUN) and in fact, the last few (NOUN) I've purchased have come from (NOUN)).

    There, now everyone can have fun with it!!!!

    Doc, chill... I was being pedantic for the sake of being pedantic. A. it's too early for me to even attempt to read and understand your last reply, and B. You're obviously smarter than me, which means... YOU WIN!

    "Mario games are about eating mushrooms to gain powers like projecting fireballs..."

    Sounds to me that's exactly what you said Dr. Pedantry.

    Some gamer you are... Simile that Doc.

  13. Re:Sh..... on $26 of Software Defeats American Military · · Score: 1

    ive got a friend who works for the Army in their IT Dept. in middle wisconsin. From what he tells me, his boss sits and plays WOW all day... Now, i know that this isn't representative of every IT worker in the US Army, but with this said, does it really come as a surprise that a $26 piece of software overcame our army intelligence?

  18. Here's an idea on Film Studios May Block DVD Rentals For One Month · · Score: 1

    Yes, Let's piss off the people who are keeping us in business by denying them the right to rent a movie at launch. Sounds like they're looking to shoot themselves in the foot on this one.

  19. Re:So... where's the object? on Possible Meteorite Leaves a Crater In Latvia · · Score: 1

    Glad it's close to Halloween or I'd throw my 'conspiracy' flag up in the air in a heartbeat.

  21. Re:To Be Powered By NVIDIA's Tegra Chipset on Next Nintendo Handheld To Be Powered By NVIDIA's Tegra Chipset · · Score: 1

    my initial thought was, this thing is either going run so hot that it'll melt the plastic casing/burst into flames..etc or if they manage to cool it well, it'll be like holding onto an old school game gear x 10 size wise.

  22. 1080P on a portable machine screen on Next Nintendo Handheld To Be Powered By NVIDIA's Tegra Chipset · · Score: 1

    Yes, the clarity may be there, but on such a small screen, is it really worth it?

    The difference between 720P and 1080P on my 32" TV is insignificant, Imagine on a 5" screen...

  23. Re:Test on Why the Sony PSP Had To "Go" · · Score: 1

    Why would Sony go for a 100% digital download on a system whose games are upwards of 25 Gigs... I, for one, do not have the internet connection OR the patience to sit and wait for an estimated 25 Gigs of data to download. IF they did this, My love affair with Sony would come to a sharp and bitter end.

  24. Re:Despite the price drop on Wii Gets Price Cut To $199 · · Score: 1

    I bought my Ps3 for the myriad of first party games they have out. Resistance, Killzone, LBP... that just naming a few off the top of my head.

    Granted i've been with sony since the psOne, and i have yet to be disappointed.

    And i don't label people. I let the console do the talking, and hey, if you like yours better, to each their own. Video game flame wars are for children.

  25. Despite the price drop on Wii Gets Price Cut To $199 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I still won't be getting one for 2 reasons.

    1. I happen to like my HDTV a little too much to put a wiimote through it.

    2. It's horribly lacking in 3rd party games which stinks. Wii Sports, Mario, Zelda and Metroid will only carry you so far.
