Software engineering is "Do X, Y, and Z except when A, B, but not C except when A and B and when user isnt E except when user is E and A and B and X and Y are not Z but Z is B when F is..."
That was yesterday....We'll be sending you the updated specs soon.
I'm not sure what MS thought they were going to get by inviting a "true believer" to their campus, but the article is pretty much exactly what you'd expect.
You'd still have to know more or less what time zone other people are in...And I don't think the Japanese, Australians, Californians, etc. would appreciate their normal business hours spanning two days.
"Gold" is the exact equivalent of the old Xbox Live service. "Silver" is free, and includes everything except the ability to play multiplayer games online.

Well...Crap graphics or not, in this case the game gets boring pretty quickly.
Maybe he meant 0x44.
While not strictly an FPS, Gears of War has a pretty damn sweet co-op mode.
Count on it. The last item in their recent customer survey is very telling.
Make sure you give your programmers two weeks notice about the changes...Because that's probably what they'll be giving you soon afterwards.
I always wondered how much it'd cost to paint the moon with a logo.
You'd have to fight off The Tick first.. Just ask Chairface.
20,000 Yen is around US$175.
It proves that much like a Mac, if you want to upgrade your ad campaign you have to replace the whole thing and get a new one.
