Your health regenerates via your cybernetic augmentations, there are no "health packs" and a head shot tends to kill faster then a body shot. However there is no location specific damage tracking (meaning that you cant injure a limb).
I have many complaints, starting with the crashes, moving through the consolesq feel of the game and the heavy compression artifacts in the cinematics and ending with the fact that everyone in the game world seems to have both stubby arms and a turrets syndrome like series of facial and arm ticks. What ever these beings evolved from, it was not humans. Humans have arms that reach past their waste and can interact with one another without their arms spastically jerking around while their head whips back and forth.
Its just like the benchmarks that showed how much faster PPC was compared to Intel. Until Apple switched to Intel of course. Or how they proved that the G4 Cube was the worlds most powerful super computer. Apples benchmarks and measuring systems are just that much "better" then the rest of the worlds. For example, the universal measurement for a tablet size is IPUs or IPad Units and the smallest IPS is 1. So all tablets SMALLER then one IPU are in fact the same size as an IPad.
Too bad Apple wont let me sell my apps. Oh, and Amazon is not Google. But rant on you crazy person. If you scream loud enough I hear that Steve Jobs will come to your birthday party.
Guess these new Adroid tablets may be worth taking a look at if they have Apple this scared. Course they could just be a bunch of jerks... hard to tell these days.
The issue would seem to be a legal one. It is illegal in many US states to record a phone call unless both parties agree to it before hand. My understanding is that Google locked down the API for call recording as a result. They are still there however, but they dont work on all phones.
This raises another point, did they test this "torjan" outside of the dev (emulated) environment? Because there are a number of call recording apps out there, but they simply wont work on a lot of Android builds because the required OS hooks are missing.
This is an application that records phone calls. It tells you it will do this when you install it and it will require you opt to install it from an untrusted site after configuring your phone to allow such an action.
But then I guess "phone call recording app records phone calls" is less of an alarmist title.
Consumers have been demanding better milage. Just look at how well the Prius did for proof. American car makers however have maintained that good milage was fiscally impossible. That is until they where forced into it via regulation. Now they all proclame how great they are for having gas milage that matches the rest of the world.
If you are saving your password in the client software you may as well just use simpler passwords. Having them stored on the device defies most of the point in having complex passwords.
Remember, the study everyone was screaming about not too long ago put cell phones (and all other devices that emit radio waves of any sort) into the same carcinogen class as pickled cucumbers.
Sound quality is still a selling point to people who want it, and those people will still find a wide selection of good quality components. However most consumers dont want to deal with setting up expensive speaker systems and finding the 'sweet spot' in the room etc. They just want a box that noise comes out of, and thats what they purchase.
Isn't an "Android based OS" called Android? And cleaning up mobile fragmentation is a laugh as XKCD pointed out. You'll just end up with yet another competing "standard".
Given that by default you're auto-logged into your Google account, if someone has the phone they have email access. Would be nice if there was better security of course.

Its a good game, but it could have been great.
If not, then I'm going to stick with my virtual machines.

You are not required to have and carry a drivers license. It does however make life more convenient.

Written from my MacPro in Camino.
If you charge people money for it, then yes I could see how that would be deemed illegal.
Zedivia rebroadcasts content for commercial purposes. True its a very limited broadcast, but I can sort of see the reasoning behind the judgement.

And yet, many people do not have it 24/7. So this "assumption" you call valid will in fact cost them sales.

Odds are they dont, but they cant say for sure. Same with cell phones.

Good sound quality is still out there and still being improved. Companies like NAD are still in business and still developing amazing gear.

100% of CFOs said "What? Who are you? How did you get into my office?"
China does it to suppress the will of their people! We do it to stop the evil doers.

Massacre is the verb, terrorism is the noun.
Is this suposed to be controversial or something? Seems a reasonable sentence for the crime, neither inflated or too short.

Steam seems far friendlier to indie games. I saw these titles on the front page of the Steam store. I expect they are far harder to find on XBox Live.
