So you have already decided the outcome of the trial already. If Martin straddling Zimmerman when he was shot (as the forensic evidence says he was) then he is not the victim, he was the perp.
The laws say the company has to pay you minimum wages, it doesn't say that is how much you will actually receive. Next step is for the company that is paying you to get part of the money you are being charged as a kick-back. Or just issuing their own cards then charging outrageous fees to recoup some of what they are paying you. But of course that will never happen here in the good old USA because all of our companies are honest and follow the highest moral standards.
"this would unquestionably boost revenue for game publishers, giving the smart ones an opportunity to step away from the $60 business model and adopt pricing practices seen on Steam and iTunes" OR They will accept the boost in revenue but ignore the "opportunity" to step away from the $60 business model. More likely they will take a cut of the used games and keep their prices as high as they are now. Plus since the used game market wont be as attractive to consumers they can now raise their prices instead of lowering them.
'Many continue to claim the Always-On function in SimCity is a DRM scheme. It’s not. People still want to argue about it. We can’t be any clearer – it’s not. Period" We gamers, Your customers, are telling you WE DO NOT WANT the Always-On function in Sim-City or ANY GAME. You can say its not a DRM scheme all day long.We dont care if you call it a DRM Scheme or a function or a bonus or whatever. WE DO NOT WANT ALWAYS-ON CRAP. You want our money? Remove the always-on crap. If you don't remove it you will NEVER get a penny from us PERIOD. How thickheaded can you possible be. People are telling you you don't want it and you are arguing with your customers about what it is. Who in the hell do you think you are?
If I cant even play a single player game off-line I wont buy it. Fuck em I hope SimCity crashes and burns hard. BTW I have purchased all of the other SimCitys as well as some of the side games, BUT I will NEVER buy SimCity again until they remove this allways on DRM crap. PS. Did I mention FUCK EM.
I remember see articles about how the Kinect 2 would be able to see every joint of every finger. You could type in mid-air and it ould understand it and it could even read sign language. Now they are saying it can see if your hand is open or closed. What a disappointment.
OMG NO I WILL HAVE TO REBOOT FOR THE PATCHES OMG NOOOOOOO How often will this hell happen? 1 time a year. Your acting like this is something you need to do every time you start your computer. Give it a rest. PS LINUX STILL SUCKS
That is what the title should be. I do not play any games on consoles anymore. We have 2 XBox 360s but I wont play them. We also have had Wii's, N64s (a fav of mine) as well as other consoles. I play all of my games on my PC. It has a better selection of games. The games are easier to deal with. Plus I refuse to use controllers when I have a mouse and keyboard that work so much better. Microsoft is shooting themselves in the foot here. They are trying to get the XBox series to be their gateway into your living-room. Imagine the advantage they would have had if the XBox 720 (or whatever its going to be called) was the only console that did not have these stupid anti-consumer restrictions built into it. Even the Ouya game system is dropping the ball. Sure it doesn't have all of the restriction the big boys have but I have to wonder, since it is powered by Android, why not include the Google store and all of its apps. If it had that I would buy it in a heartbeat. Then all I would need is a way to use Android apps on my Windows desktop.
If after reading this article the most important thing to cross you mind is a spelling error, then you need to do the rest of us a favor and die in a car fire.
What is or is not of public interest changes depending on who you ask. America used to be a country where people minded their own damn business. Now everyone has some bullshit excuse to get into your business.
(whine) I have a right to make you stop smoking it effect my air. (Unlike the big SUV you are driving) (Whine) It affects my insurance rates. (That is a problem you need to take up with your insurance companies and if they don't listen talk to your lawmakers and pass laws making the insurance companies change how they do business)
Your rights stop at your nose. You do not have the right to know someone else' personal business. This is the same bullshit excuse people use for anytime they want to stick their nose into someone else' business. The excuse that if they have a gun you need to know in case the decide to shoot you is bullshit. If you are that worried (paranoid) about it, buy a gun yourself or move away from a place you think may be unsafe.

You are forgetting...How are people going to pay for anything when they don't have jobs.
That's a punishment?

LMFAO
Since technology gets better and cheaper as time goes on, shouldn't we now have the $600 Man, who could kick the original $6,000,000 mans ass?
And then sold to the highest bidder.
Considering the state of our educational system, this is not a shocking statement.
Ewwww how lonely can you be.
