this is another area in which apple is leading all electronics companies in corporate responsibilities. All electronics are made in asian factories, but apple is the only company with balls to open the doors to visitors. Let's see the same for whatever droid / tab factories.
Amen about multiplayer! Why would I want to play against som mofos from across the globe who have devoted serious time to optimizing their performance? Likely they are 13yo pimply faced l0zRs.
To jaffe's comment on the beach war thing... The player wondering how to get to the next rock. For me, the more important question is why do I want to get to the next rock? What are the character drivers? What is the character trying to achieve?who am I, anyway?
Personally, I see vid games as a new frontier in storytelling. Whether you're Ezio, batman, or whoever, it's ALL about story. Otherwise gameplay becomes button mashing.
Jaffee is wrong. Some of the bet games in the past two year have been emotionally engaging narrative-driven. If you ignore the arc of characters and plot, and only focus on gameplay, then you end up in the same box as angry birds. And that box is worth $.99.
also, didn't some games on SNES have extra hardware included in the cartridge? I recall a chip on the cartridge that acted like it was a hardware upgrade. No problems with backwards compatibility, since all people who played this game had this upgrade.
Wikipedia tells me it is super fx chip http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_FX
I would call this the most successful console upgrade ever, because it was 100% seamless!
I'm pretty sure developers would prefer to e.g. support only Windows than to have to support Windows, Xbox, PS3, and Wii (and PSP, PSVita, DS, 3DS etc).
I'm pretty sure if developers had to choose one platform out of those you mentioned, they would not choose windows.
I was going to make a joke about the Red Hat Society. But i realized i would be tearing down and marginalizing a woman for just being a woman. A agree with parent, I take on face value that she is the most qualified. I would ask all the lonely dudes on/. to consider this before interjecting thier jokes.
there's a subgroup of people who are not anonymous to each other, at the very least pseudonymous. they split it amongst themselves, like a group of thieves. "anonymous" just means black-mask.It's not like when a thief steals from you he puts the money in the thief's guild bank.

If I wanted story or characters, I'd be reading a book.
somehow I don't think that happens very much.
you're either a troll or a very stupid person!
I feel sorry for you and your stunted worldview.if all you want to do. I mash your buttons then why not go watch pron or something?
I second the ac. Yu're obviously a really big gay wad.
Where is a sar-chasm? That makes no sense.
RTfs. Ontario is in Canada, man. Maybe it is u who needs education?
? You say you have friends with these people? Orders from middle ages? Like a fraternity? What part of the world are you from?

I don't think you understand what an order of magnitude is. It has nothing to do with friendship really. It's more like a mathematical concept.

"anonymous reader" = manufacturer. just sayin'
woosh!
dupe story? from earlier this day? http://search.slashdot.org/story/12/02/09/1857220/online-privacy-worth-less-than-marshmallow-fluff-six-pack
You have no idea how much pron that guy downloads. Although viewing it would still be limited by read speeds.
I think my example is better than yours. Nice try to one-up me though, topper.

From now on, I'll just use ad hominems at discussions.
don't be a douche!
Plus the "people who like garlic bread" can't sneak up on you.
thank you for making me smile. I'd throw in a vampire joke, but it would be derivative.
I can lay down some letters for the iranian drones - "f"..."u"..."c"...
