Any video game fanatic that has followed the history of video games know that console wars were never about hardware. If it did, Atari Jaguar and Neo Geo would have dominated.
Looking at the numbers, xbox1 would have the shortest lifespan of any successful video game console. Why would you want to invest money in a console that ditches its hardware every 2 years. Sony's PS2 almost has a 6 year reign in comparison.
When new treatments comes out, usually it has to go through the Drug administrations like 6x to see if it's $$$ profitable before it really reaches your local hospital.
I still like the gamerankings.com. It gives you an overview of what 20 sites rate 1 game. Overall it's best to listen to the toughest critics. If the toughest critics say it's good, it's good.
Driv3r IS one of the biggest reason why atari is in such a shit hole. It spanned something like 4 years in development. The play time is said to last a total of 12 short hours. It costed a budget of $$$millions.
Another major budget flop was Enter the Matrix. How about the poor selling Terminator 3. The list goes on.
Atari is literally being carried by UT2004, Dragonball Z series, Backyard game series.
The original poster is right. Democrats and Republicans are virtually identical in concept and representation. If I had 5 mod points, I'd give him all 5.
Pfff.... American idiot would make 1 album out of 10,000,000 in store worth buying then.
Can you believe going to buy a car, and only 1 car in the entire dealer has all the parts in working order? Albums are dead! People won't pay $15 for 2 good songs and 10 garbage tracks anymore.
1.) EA owned Porsche, games like Gran Turismo can't have a porsche 911 turbo.
2.) They own Nascar the franchise practically.
3.) In 2003 I warned people that EA will own the NFL players association soon. No one believe me then.
4.) After they own UBisoft, they are only a couple steps away from blocking off everyone from having swat-team based tactical war games. Yes, this may sound crazy now. But so did the NFL thing back then.
As long as you mention M$ Streets and Trips. This is the only app I give M$ their credit. Since it's bugfree, affordable, updated very nicely every year. It's also a cut above any web mapquest wannabe.
If google can rival M$ Streets and Trips, I'd like to see it. Google maps already do look better cleaner and neater than mapquest that's for sure. But that doesn't say enough.
My little cousin has the DS, I tried this thing out and was terribly disappointed. Don't get me wrong the graphics are insane compared to the earlier gameboys. But that's about it. The games are like lean trim down versions of whatever gamecube has to offer.... and that's not much.
You know, I wish there was just a website that shows you how to get the most popular games working on 1 linux distribution. Unfortunately there is no such thing.

Most male college students leave their PS2 at home since it might be a turn off to female college students. Or they can't get work done.
The video game 55% should be actually alot higher.
The most surprising part about the video game industry is that the publisher pockets more than 50% of the total profit.
Unlike the film industry where the producer funds almost everything, the publisher kind of just burn CDs and throw in a commercial here and there.

Well the success of napster will come down to whether there is a hack to make the songs keepable forever.
Not to be sick, but you know some scientists have already pondered what if John Doe had the lower waist of a horse etc.
Cisco is a huge, massive company. Massive companies are clumsy and usually find it tough to shift corners and sell something else.

In a capitalist society, saving evidence of the companies you have taken over just doesn't make sense.
There is no trace of mediaone, which is now comcast.
There is no trace of bank of boston, which became fleet.
There will be no trace of fleet once it becomes boa.
There will be no trace of AT&T once the merger is complete.
That's some hardcore questions. Why don't you keep it simple.
Where would your OS be without Antivirus help?
But I use Trillion, which opens a simultaneous tunnel to aol, msn, yahoo, ICQ etc. Does that mean I am absolutely screwed thru the ass?!
Every technical person has at least heard of slashdot. It's not exactly google yet, but it's not that far off.
Sun fanboys have really moved up the list by the end of 2004.
...
Most annoying fan boys
----------------------
1.) Apple
2.) M$
3.) Sun
4.) EMC
5.) IBM
In other news, the court transcript has been revealed.
SCO: IBM did it.
Judge: IBM did what?
SCO: They stole our code.
Judge: Evidence Exhibit A?
SCO: My dog ate it.
Judge: IBM do you have anything to propose?
IBM: Can I buy all of you lunch?
Judge: Case closed.
Isn't DVRs based on some advanced MPEG2, while Apple is always in favor of Quicktime?!

No way. Slashdot is not my biggest distraction. It took me an hour to finish reading all the popups and spam before I could post on slashdot at work.
Well, when the CEO's name begins with BALL, it saids it all.

Good comparison. Except in a store they can catch you physically holding a DVD in your hands. Point you a thief, end of story.
It's very hard to prove you are really holding a giant mpeg on your filesystem.
-Is it really on a filesystem?
-What if it's a shared filesystem on someone else's network?
-What if it's a split in parts. With other files on other networks.
-Wouldn't you also have to break the law and break into someone's PC to see the filesystem too. It's tricky.
