Fractal fjords? Fjords are no more fractal than real life trees with branches and leaves. Do not confuse computional/mathematical representation/aproximation/generation with the real world. (I am sure there will be some funny replies to this.)
It makes it easier for the average customer if they can view the online gameplay as a part of the game, without worrying about servers, connections and other alien terminology. (Yes, it IS alien for the average mortal.)
Besides, I've had more problem with playing Half-Life online than using Battle.net.

Actually, no. The speed of a photon is always c. However, when a photon is absorbed and reemitted (as happens a lot when you send light throug glass, gasses and any other medium), it will use more time to travel through the medium than vacum.
But the extra time used, it does not spend as a photon - it's spend as absorbed energy in the medium.
As the photon again reemerges, it's got the speed c.
I -do- want high-quality downloadable (freely or not) music.
Now, "halved storage space" might be turned the other way around to (IMO (and probably yours too) the more important) "doubled music quality". If they can get the mp3 128kbps quality at 64kbps with mp3PRO, it means they are actually working to improve the quality of the music. Double it, if you will.
So don't be so negative. It works the way -you- want too =)

The number one reason to dislike FPS on consoles is the lack of a mouse. Add it, and I'm all up for playing it on any console.
Girls tend to like the aliens.
"Awwww, cute gorge!"
And it's a very cooperative and social game.

Why would they do that?

Yeah right.
So Blizzard should release source code to satisfy programmers, who Slashrants(tm) how evil Blizzard is anyway? What good would that do Blizzard?
I really don't believe, nor hope, this will happen.
