Backwards compatibility is a nice to have (and for some people, much more important because of limited space near the TV). That's not the problem with Sony.
Sony lambasted MS for having poor backwards compatibility when the PS2 had near perfect, and they promised 100% backward compatibility. They then reneged on this promise, twice, first by making it worse, then by removing it.
Flamebait? Come on, it's the reality of the situation. Just because anyone can doesn't mean anyone *should*. Getting security right is hard, it's incredibly easy to make mistakes that don't look like they do anything horrible but destroy any semblance of security. Debian learned that the hard way. OpenSSL screwed up, they shouldn't have used uninitialized memory (furthermore, on a secure system, that hack makes things *less* secure), but the fix wasn't as easy as the one Debian did.
I'm reading some now for the first time. It's... different. The section I'm in is just little bits covering the various gods and lands, no real plot of any sort. I'm hoping the other stories in the collection are a little more traditional.
Last figures I had heard was around 200K, and wikipedia mentions 270K. I have trouble believing it hit the 1M for greatest hits, although it does show in the greatest hits list there.
Tolkien Lord Dunsany started the trope with "fantasy = medieval Europe with hints of a grander older age that's like Rome -- only there's magic and dragons and shit."
Ditto. Although I've been playing some of the old point and clicks I haven't gotten through and that's dragged me away from it. Just finished Amerzone the other day.
Not necessarily. You can create raw sockets with some limitations without root access on OS X. There's enough control to implement ping, but not enough to forge.

That's funny, one of the games I'm currently playing is FFVIII on my PS3. Disks too, not the PSN download.

Richard Saunders disagrees.
your e-mails to your grandmother to feed your cat while you're away.
Party at DerPflanz, he's going to be away, easy to tell since the e-mail at the wireless point wasn't encrypted.
In the enterprise, it's a near zero cost because they can set up an internal CA and churn out certs. Policy can push the root cert into the clients.
You can do all that with pseudonymity. You get an identity, but it does not need to be the same as your real one.
And everything exuding heat is perfectly natural, no problems there.
The deaths and environmental changes from heat exchange in rivers near power plants don't happen, nope, uh uh.
Water's perfectly natural you need it to live, no way to drown in it, nope, uh uh.
Don't have Live, so no cost there.
How much for used games for the PC, and where can I walk in and buy some?
No chat controller either.

Yes, but you have to actually be looking for it to find it.
Right, that fix that Debian did to OpenSSL for uninitialized memory use worked out real well.

You're assuming that this only hits nonpaying customers.
What about the people that only bought the occasional item?
Take a quick look at the home keys on a real keyboard.
I don't think it is. I think there's an internal compiler they use, not Visual Studio.

Compared to say, Sam and Max, Monkey Island and Myst? No.
FTFY.
It hasn't?
Ditto. Although I've been playing some of the old point and clicks I haven't gotten through and that's dragged me away from it. Just finished Amerzone the other day.
Baloney. I started on PC and don't have a problem with consoles.
if you make a, oh you know, not a shitty game in the first place, that money part is not an issue.
yeah, Okami really tore up the charts.
Good != sells well, Bad != doesn't sell well.

Once your webcam gets hacked, you're screwed.
