  1. Re:Why buy an XBox? on Microsoft Announces XNA Game Development Platform · · Score: 1

    Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic?

    I understand your pain, which is why I do most of my gaming on my trusty Nintendo consoles, and occasionally pull out my PS. However, I saw no need to invest in an XBox for their "exclusive" games, since all of the ones that are any good get ported to PC anyways.

  2. Why buy an XBox? on Microsoft Announces XNA Game Development Platform · · Score: 1

    When XBox first came out, one of my main reason's for not buying one was that I had a computer, and any game that Microsoft releases for XBox would come to PC sooner or later. Not that I needed any more proof that I was right about that supposition, but making it easier to do cross-windows-platform development just shows that Microsoft has/had the same idea. John

  3. Internal Code Name on Nintendo DS Actually Nintendo Nitro? · · Score: 5, Informative

    This has already been debunked. Sources are reporting that NITRO (besides being the dumbest name ever) was/is being used as the internal name while Nintendo worked on the machine. Similar to how the code name for the GameCube was Dolphin.

  4. Re:Controlling sexual predators through technology on Mind Over Machine · · Score: 1

    I'd like to see a simple switch based on brain activity that would toggle on during sexual thought/arousal and toggle off in the absence of that.

    I have one of those. I call it my dick.

  5. Slow News Day? on Sony Announces New Ratchet, Jak, Sly Cooper · · Score: 1

    It doesn't really seem like it. Why does the announcement of a few platformer sequels rate its own item?

  6. Re:Hmm on GameCube Successor For E3 2005? · · Score: 1

    let's face it, there's no good reason for them to make their game discs that small...

    Actually, there was a good reason to make them that small - it helped stop some of the rampant piracy that is occuring/did occur on the PS1, PS2, XBox, and Dreamcast.

  7. Something funny with MS... on Commercials Come To The Net (After This Word) · · Score: 1

    Anyone else notice the fact that MS is going to add a pop-up blocker to their next-gen browser, but seems to be a proponent of this forced-advertising service? John
