Interesting because our TV only autoselects when it can choose the wrong format (e.g. it expands horizontally when the picture is 16:9 or zooms proportionally if the picture is 4:3).
I'd guess Outlaw Golf, there's not a huge number of golf games with a realistic looking (well, more realistic than Mario & co) but not licensed cast. Of course the Outlaw [foo] series sells on sex appeal alone so that's like complaining about Leisure Suit Larry.
Preordering is one waste of money. Never mind that on XCircle launchday I've seen people walk away without a system despite having preordered while I've also seen piles of X360s in other stores. If no store has it anymore then just wait until later. It's not like the X360 has any "must buy console for this" games right now, anyway.
When you're on the go you usually don't want to carry around material for drawing your map. And besides, the map only shows the areas you've been to so all it really does it handle the drawing for you. You're still exploring the unknown as long as you're really exploring new areas. Most gamers would prefer not to get lost just because they didn't draw every move they make into a map. Since it's pretty easy to get lost in the game without a map that would be an exercise in frustration.
You get the Julius mode if you don't equip Mina's Talisman for the Lv.4 seal room in the garden. If you've seen Death and reached 90% completion without getting Julius mode you'll probably have to start over.
You're slow, I beat the final boss after 8 hours and have 99.3% completion after 12 hours now (last few hours were mostly soul grinding). The soul drops are way too rare compared to AoS, no way I'll try for 100% soul collection in DoS. Also the weapon upgrades are kinda useless, IMO. Nothing beats throwing weapons + Skelerang soul for effectiveness (no need to stop for attacks, long range, high rate of fire) but those cannot be upgraded.
ds cons: The xyab butons are to close to the edge of the device for me to play gba games like gunstar heroes or astro boy for any length of time.
This is so goddamn true the DS needs it as a disclaimer on the box. The Megaman Zero games are another painful experience on the DS. Gunstar Super Heroes can only be played using "simple" controls because holding B and tapping A is impossible.
From what I heard Iga didn't give DoS a lot of attention and focussed on that recent 3d PS2 one instead. Don't worry, DoS is still great (better than AoS, I'd say) but pretty short.
Yes, that's the big problem. People don't accept that handhelds are more expensive than home consoles. Look at laptops for a direct comparison or ponder about the costs of an LCD, speakers and a battery. Sure, the hardware itself is weaker but it comes with lots of additional parts.
I'm not sure why Walmart is doing that but I doubt people would really boycott them because of such a minor thing (and hell, how many people can really boycott Walmart in the US?).
This creates an artificial barrier for game content especially since the AO label is given out very quickly for even nudity. Sure, excessive violence doesn't need to be in games (besides, games like Manhunt or God of War got M rantings despite excessive violence) but this is effectively preventing any major publisher from making games involving nudity or sex even though movies can get away with that.
Start the system without a disc in the drive. Press triangle to access the hardware settings, select Playstation Driver, press triangle again. You can set the disc speed to fast and the texture mapping to smooth (bilinear filtering).
I'd prefer if they did that and games stopped cutting content just because some manager at Walmart decided it'd be good for their image not to sell such "evil" games.
Germany doesn't care about freedom of speech at all when it's used to "attack the free democratic foundation of the country", which can lead to your right to free speech being revoked.

I dare you to find any critic who acclaims Daikatana. That abomination was panned for what it was.

Each time they sell one they can afford a new one. Or more than one.

Argh. forgot to close the quotes in the anchor tag. Always preview when using that tag...
Seems to be available on Amazon here in Germany. The GBA ones were available for years, too.
Try that in Sonic Rush. You're toast within seconds in some levels since the action constantly switches between the screens.

I only quoted the constitution, you'll have to consult a lawyer on that.
But generally it's legal as long as your disagreement isn't about subjects like the lack of a death penalty or the need for wars of aggression.
it will be version 2.0 of the device that actually works.
This is Microsoft we're talking about, it won't work before 3.0.

.eu is supposed to be some form of ccTLD. It's like a french website on .us.
Germany doesn't care about freedom of speech at all when it's used to "attack the free democratic foundation of the country", which can lead to your right to free speech being revoked.
It does matter to people who don't speak English.
That'll sell for BIG money to some porn site.
That'd cause DNS problems if someone had registered e.g. http://eu/ which would have to be deregistered to make the .eu TLD work.
The body of the mail probably contains the propaganda.
