  1. Re:More hype on Next-Gen Console CPUs Not Up to Hype · · Score: 1

    RTFM - this is refering to the decision by Sony and MS to buy cheap IBM PowerPC processors rather than Athlon 64's or P4's.

  7. Re:Free promotion on Battlefield 1942 Secret Weapons Demo Released · · Score: 5, Informative

    They are providing hosting - its the 1st link on their offical page. If they wanted to they could not allow it to be distributed by other sites but what advantage to me as a gamer would that be? I would just have to wait forever to be able to download it. Also sites such as shacknews, 3dgamers etc would not benefit from people visiting them, seeing what the site was about and maybe returning in the future.

  8. Re:British TV ads VS "The cup of Tea" on TiVo Data Collection Ramifications · · Score: 1

    In the UK there are none of the laugably bad local commericals that u get in the US, for eg 'Bobs Furniture Store'. These are usually so awful its not suprising nobody wants to watch them and I doubt 'Bob' has a budget to make anything entertaining or less formulaic. As these local commercials are a direct source of revenue for the local stations I can't see the status quo changing, not for local ads anyway.
