...and that is to have sharks with frickin' laser printers attached to their heads! Now evidently my cycloptic colleague informs me that that cannot be done. Ah, would you remind me what I pay you people for, honestly? Throw me a bone here! What do we have?
Because otherwise we end up with great dreamcast hardware, two good games to play (soul calibur and Armada), and a praying that it doesn't break cause we can't buy a new one.
Wait a second there... someone actually liked Armada?!
"The RIAA is evil because the websites tell me so, so I'm going to ensure that System of a Down doesn't get paid today, which somehow is good for System of a Down!"
There's nothing wrong about System of a Down not being paid; not being even listened to would be even better!
That's a very unfair comparison. Jackie Chan does not pretend his movies are documentaries... and since he does his own stunts, they are actually more faithful to reality!
"If Coca-Cola accidentally created 100 million cans of faulty Coke, you know for sure the entire 100 million cans would be dropped in the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean, without a second thought and irrespective of what that did to the year's profits. What do we do with a crappy movie? We double its advertising budget and hope for a big opening weekend. What have we done for the audience as they walk out of the cinema? We've alienated them. We've sold audiences a piece of junk; we just took twelve dollars away from a couple and we think we've done ourselves no long-term damage."--- David Puttnam, movie producer (from GQ magazine, April 1987)
I hope Nintendo got this right, but there's something that worries me: using this controller may be like using a lightpen. Remember those? More intuitive than a mouse, but very tiresome if you use it for too long...

It's unfair to say Microsoft only invented Clippy. They have also invented something much worse... the COMBO BOX.

... Right.
Number Two: Inkjets.
Dr. Evil:
Number Two: They're photo-quality inkjets.
Dr. Evil: Are their cartridges refillable?
Number Two: Absolutely.
Dr. Evil: Oh well, that's a start.
Just post your targets at Slashdot, and we will simulate a DoS attack.
Every time the "ad on games" topic comes up, I mention two games that got ads and product placement right: Sega's Shenmue and Sonic Adventure 2.
- Hello Cthulhu
... here.
Damn you, Bono! I swear I'll NEVER buy another U2 album!
Yea right. Like you would not see a flash if you shot with a real gun!
...a 360 Degree TV to watch it!
That's a very unfair comparison. Jackie Chan does not pretend his movies are documentaries... and since he does his own stunts, they are actually more faithful to reality!
...Limewire use will plummet.
Sure, but around here we write it like this:
1. A robot must bring...
2. ???
3. PROFIT!
Star Wars? No, you're thinking of Independence Day.
It's called a "fleshlight", dummy.
Actually that was a long time ago, now he has long hair again.
Armada. Phantasy Star 2. Hidden & Dangerous.
And Windows is the operating system equivalent of an ill-tempered mutated sea bass...
Then it makes sense that most of their products suck, right?
> the Sega Classics Collection (Shinobi,
> Columns, Golden Ax, and something else)
Would that something else be Streets of Rage?
