What makes console ports console ports is the fact that the games are completely dumbed down to fit the expectations of your average console gamer.
They are not smart, nor do they have taste.
They want what plants crave.
The other providers have Android, which is probably harder on the network than the iPhone since everything is tied into Google and other providers.
It means "and similar companies."
Or how about Beefen?
I wonder if this method would work at a bank?
I might save some time in the drive thru...
I wonder what's going to take over the game industry first, OnLive or the Phantom?
Whatchu talkin' 'bout, adolf?
wear = ware ;)

And I tend to agree.
Gods and Generals anyone?
I'll buy that for a dollar!
Yeah, sounds like Captain Obvious better start turning things up a notch.
He apparently has some serious competition living in Maldives.

Poor Bill Gates is going to be crying about how they invented this stuff first.
The funny part is they probably did.
Have you cleared this with Muad'Dib?
So what exactly do you think the virtualization software does?
Not entirely correct.
Virtualizing the graphics card already has support for all the major VMs (VirtualBox, VMWare, Parallels, etc) and it's being actively worked on with support from the big GPU ISVs.
You must be new here.
Shouldn't you be posting on bingdot.com or whatever the fuck Microsoft's Slashdot clone is called?

Not everyone's an empty headed salesperson.
He was probably regurgitating the balloon full of liquid explosive components he swallowed before the flight.
That's funny, I always wondered what Hitler did before he got into politics.

Wine is an clean room reimplementation of the Win32 apis and userland.
Mono is a clean room reimplementation of the .NET apis and userland. .NET is essentially Win32+1.
Neither are very compatible and both have questionable legal status.
So really, Wine is probably the closest project currently existing in FLOSSland to Mono.
Cheers to the idiot mods who modded your post informative.
