Maybe that's because Sony has a successful console with dozens, if not hundreds, of great games and microsoft has a failed console with 2 good games. And no, neither of them are halo.
I don't think you'll see much pro-Sony sentiment around here if they blow it in the next generation and don't have a huge lead in the number of quality titles available exclusively for their platform.
It'd be more convincing if you could count accurately to at least 8. Because I know the games (if you actually have any) are sitting right there next to your bottles of mountain dew and bags of cheetos so it's not like you even have to remember.
On most TV setups, I would question the extent of a difference stereo sound would make, given the close proximity of the speakers. If you have a 30" TV with speakers built in, those speakers aren't going to be more than about 2 feet apart. Unless you sit fiarly close, you probably get little stereo field.
You haven't used a stereo television in a long time have you? Because the different between mono and stereo output on even a 21" set is quite pronounced. Now whether any of this is true, who cares? No one's buying an xbox 360 anyway. What's the point of a "game" console without anything to play on it? The original has been out for 4 years and there are still only two exclusives that I would play on it and one port that I would play over the PS2 or GC versions if offered the opportunity.
You fucking moron. It's not "the" money, it's "your" money. Government takes a cut of INCOME. This has nothing to do with WHICH money it is. Take a second back from being a moron and think on a) how that even makes sense as a metric by which to determine taxation, and b) how the government would go about taxing eat individual "money" only once.
Inheritence taxes tax those inheriting, not those who died. And why shouldn't you pay tax on income you don't earn the same as when I have to pay it on the income that I do earn?
Either way though, it's not a death tax. It's a "getting shit you didn't work for from dead people" tax. So stop with this "death tax" bullshit, moron.
Maybe not, but they can do one for 59.99$ that supports wireless controllers and can also play Famicom games. Would have been nice if they'd packed in a wireless controller though.
Actually, the only idiots we should be ignoring are the ignorant fucks that don't google something to see if they're right before posting wrong information and looking like a dumbass:
I think the word you were looking for is "who". Which makes you a prime example of an "ignorant fuck" that should be ignored.
Also, got to agree with the sibling on this one, the only idiots who say "could care less" are the ones misspeaking the phrase. That dictionary's got it wrong. If there ever was anyone who intentionally misused it they certainly aren't around now.
Once Kansas becomes the victim of a self-imposed economic failure, even most religious fundamentalists will realize that factual science is a necessity.
They already pretty much are. That's kind of how they got in this mess in the first place.
So yeah, teach ID in schools if you like, just teach it in something other than the science classroom.
Why do people keep saying that? What possible value could something like that EVER have in a classroom? Maybe it'd be useful to study the political motivations and actions of the people supporting it, but there isn't any value in the actual idea itself, so how come people keep suggesting that?
Starcraft and Halflife play great in WINE. That Maple Story crap requires IE, but the rest of that shit they're better off running Linux for. Maybe when more recent games are the big thing over there that'll be a valid point. And who knows, this Maple Story thing might even run in WINE too but I'm way too lazy to run IE in it to find out.
Yeah, they'll just hack that too. So who cares? As long as the authentication for these things is local it'll get hacked. And even assuming that remote authentication would somehow stop the hacking, we're no where near the point where enough people will accept their programs phoning home in order to run them.

What has Pat Schroeder done for me lately (ever)? At least with Bob Barr I know that he's "just gooder".
The problem is that this isn't 1995 anymore. Back then GUIs were a new thing for the IBM PC, and everyone was willing to seek out a local computer geek to help them make it work.
Yeah, I've got speeds similar to that on an OC'd 1800+ Mobile with 1GB. I really don't see where these speed complaints are coming from since it sure starts up a lot faster than Office ever did all those years ago when I still used it.
I think they originally meant that slogan to be a comparison to windows. You know, more along the lines of "Freedom to innovate OR use microsoft products."
Word on the mailing lists it that they also hope to be able to release GNOME 2.14 (or was it 2.16?) in parallel with GNOME later on. Now wouldn't that be cool?

Your shower head restrictor must suck, since mine does fine and I actually like it better than the old one.
Maybe they'll switch to letters.

The difference is that Nintendo had huge numbers of great games. Microsoft has what, two? And no, neither of them are Halo.
More likely, once he has all that money he'd just pay for it and keep the chips in his beard.

And probably isn't true for xbox 360 either.

No.
Aren't you embarrassed going out of the house with ideas like that?
