There is something stopping them. The fact that they are under contracts to the NHL teams they play for that they may only play for those teams in North America. The only players active in N.A. right now are unsigned free agents. The others are only legally able to play in Europe, or else they are open to legal trouble. If your boss told you tomorrow "Go home. You can't come to work here until the new terms of employment for Burger King are settled, would you consider yourself on strike? Get a freaking clue.
Or maybe the first decision you should make is to lear the fucking English language. Apostrophe in a possesive, threw, not through in, and get a life while you're at it. Of course, we can't be asked to expect much from a wiener who uses numbers in the place of letters.

And the post I was replying to was using the undivded 50Fps that PAL video runs in. I see literacy is not a large concern for you. Thank you for playing, now piss off.

Well, I guess it takes an asshat to know one, as it iscommon knowledge that the refresh rate for NTSC video is 60 Hz, not 30. Of course, if you did research on the topic you would have less time to post your highly enlightened comments for our edification. So, in the future, please do the research!

Actually, dumbass, the NFS series originsted on consoles. The first game was for the 3DO, then ported to the PC, Saturn and PS1
The reason PS2 games can use DTS for digital surround sound but not Dolby AC-3 is due to a basic difference in the way the two systems work. a Dolby 5.1 decoder requires a lot of the processing to be done at the source (i.e. within the DVD player or PS2), while DTS processing is done strictly at the deoder, working from the PCM stream output. This is why, for a few years, DTS decoder-equipped home theater receivers cost 2x to 3x what the equivalent AC-3 only units did. In short, Dolby 5.1=more processor overhead in player/console, DTS=all sound processing in decoder.
Actually, the Sega Master System version of Double Dragon had 2-player co-op play. The graphics were the closest to the arcade out of all the 8-bit ports.
Why since '96? Hasn't Acclaim cranked out the carp since '86 or so? They have always had an accidental decent title slip out, but they have been schlockmeisters since day one!
You seem to have a very naive and distorted view of the way most websites present themselves. Be careful not to get victimized repeatedly in the next two hours or so. Oh, by the way, nothing will make your penis get bigger, no matter what your e-mail tells you.
I always felt the biggest problem with Electric Playground was their obvious system biases. I remember when they reviewed Mace:The Dark Age for N64. Both guys bagged on the control, the character balance and the A.I., then gave the game 8.0 out of 10! WTF? So every element of the game is crap, but it is 80% perfect? I never watched the show again after that.
You make a faulty point here, in that the example relates to opinion-based questions, not fact-based questions. Opinions tend to be fairly random. I have a friend who actually thought that 'White Chicks' was a good movie. Thank god he knows that 2+2=4.
No, it just isn't typical US-based stale, derivative game design. Microshaft also canned the new Oddworld game, after they pretty much bought OWI to do Munch's Oddysee and to talk shit about the PS2. Basically, if it doesn't look like a PC game, MS is afraid to publish it. No wonder the XBOX has failed to dominate the market the way they said it would. The people I know with XBOXes bought them just to mod them, and don't run ANY XBOX games.
The original Gex was a hand-drawn 2-d game. It kicked ass. The 2nd and 3rd Gex games were 3-d, and some of the worst crap I have ever attempted to play. It seemed like after the vastly over-rated Mario 64 every platformer had to be a 3-d scavenger hunt, wher collecting random crap was the point of the game. If I felt like wandering around grabbing debris from the ground, I'd volunteer for highway clean-up and save myself the $50 for the game.
I burned a copy of Beats of Rage a few weeks ago, an d I like it. A good, old-fashioned Streets of Rage/Final Fight beat-em-up with great artwork (borrowed from the King of Fighters games) and good music (Front Line Assembly, VNV Nation, Traci Lords, Yuzo Koshiro[taken from Streets of Rage]). There are even different mods for it with different characters, ie X-men, TMNT and Joe and Mac. Check it out.

"Think Wal-mart without the flourescent lighting" Shopping for toothpaste in the dark would suck.
Well, I think we know the reason for all the overtime, then. They apparently only have one person working there.
It's not a strike. It's a lockout. That means that the players want to be playing, but the owners won't let them. Get your facts straight.
Don't get your hopes up. That's only the title because it's the 128th piece of shitty software they've stuck him in in the last 6 months.
Let's hope one of your friends or relatives gives you the gift you seem to need most: A LIFE!!!!!!

Well, you're half right. Xbox is legal, modding is not. Unfortunately, murdering the English language is not yet a death-penalty offense.
I played Ocarina of Time, and I regretted it too. Blurry, boring piece of rehashed Miyamoto dung.
Is his title Editor, or Turd Polisher?

Disney licensing it would make no sense, considering Muppets from Space was released by Columbia!
