Because it wasn't a godwinned reference. He was directly beating the shit out of what passed for logic in your post. He could easily have said, Britney spears sold an assload of copies. Just because it sold an assload of copies doesn't make it good. It just means that the masses found it acceptable.
The wiring. Unless some evolutionary change makes us completely nonagressive, which is highly unlikely given the nature of evolution, then it won't happen. Unless we do it to ourselves, except that won't happen either as the only way to ensure such a result would be to engineer a teratogenic virus and release it, which would certainly be an application of force against the unwilling, which when you get right down to it is what violence is composed of. As such, no true pacifist would do it. Not to mention that engineering such a reaction would be next to impossible and assuming you were able to do such you would probably end up with the sort of scenario found in Serenity. Aggression/selfpreservation ultimately is the fount from which violence stems, and without aggression we would be less than cows.
2nd place only if you consider pure sales numbers. But only the GC and the PS2 actually made any profit. The XBOX still hasn't broken into the black yet, and the 360 looks to be in the same boat.
The type of people who might buy a PS3 to watch high-def movies are not hte same type of people who would buy a PSP to watch movies. Seriously, how many grown-ups would buy a psp to watch movies instead of a portable DVD player?
Actually, the interstate gets a pass as it is a defensive military resource. The ability to move troops quickly within an AOO is invaluble to the mlitary.

Isn't not doing anything the definition of passive? Or did that change when I wasn't looking?
Think of the PS3 as being a car with two gears. The first gear is really short and fast, representing the initial run of consoles as those who really want them snap them up. The second gear is a really really long second gear that accrues speed, or in this case owners, for a long time.
From the original graphics to the graphics the PS3 will be able to produce is not 'slight' by any means. Not to mention that they would probably expand the storyline rather than making a direct port except for the graphics. Although the battle system better be similar or a bunch of people are going to be majorly pissed.
A liberal is just a conservative who hasn't been mugged. Actually, that's not quite right, a social batshit crazy democrat is just a theoretically rightist but in reality not really whose political leaders also major hypocrites albeit not as bad as the front-runners in the leftist field who hasn't been mugged.
Amercan liberals are not liberals at all.
The problem is then you'd have people bitching about the weapons-grade plutonionm that could theoretically at much danger to the harvesters be aquired.
Because stuffing a blu-ray player into a gaming system with a completely new architecture and selling that system for less than the blu-ray players cost is "artificially inflating the price"
Um, no. That's like saying that budweiser is a better beer than any of thousands of microbrews. I'm sorry, but such is not the case. Budweiser is love in a small boat beer, period.
Crysis and Halo2 are the only Vista only games so far. Hell, they're the only DX 10 games so far. And to be perfectly honest, Crysis doesn't look nearly good enough for me to buy Vista and a new bloody graphics card for DX 10. Given market saturation are game devs really going to be stupid enough to block out XP anytime within the next 3-4 years?

Cause you know there'll be some annoying asshole with 37 peices of flair.
I wonder how long it'll take the Xbox franchise to rise into the black.
Does someone listen to Cruxshadows?

True, but guess what OS the Zune runs?

It's got a HD, why would you need to use a mem card natively?
Actually, more of a social democrat view, the distinction is an important one.

Pppphhht, if you want to play a real simulation fps go play WWII online. All CS source is is a game of guess the hitboxes.

Yes, just like human flight, or space flight, or cloned animals. Oh wait.

This is because FPS's are extremely gay to play when your opponents are on the same flipping screen as you.

Sooo, about 4 years of debt for socsec and medicare then?

*cough*Big Dig*cough* Ah well, at least this one probably won't end up killing anyone.

The paper trail idea would be knocked down. Specificallyfor the democrats in illinois.
