  1. Re:"Unthinkable?" how about "obvious?" on Shouldn't Every Developer Understand English? · · Score: 1

    Having gone travelling recently, many English dialects are mutually incomprehensible. Some within a 20 mile radius.

    Um, I call B.S. *Throws BS Flag*

    Maybe, but then the Parent isn't talking about TFA, because the system in question IS using compressed video.

  3. Re:Single Player only? on New Service Aims To Replace Consoles With Cloud Gaming · · Score: 1

    This would be restricted to single player games huh? No way am I uploading that info and downloading a stream while also playing on a full 32 person server.

    No, it is also for multiplayer games. This was demoed at the GDC. Check out IGN or G4 for some multiplayer Crysis gameplay footage.

    Don't forget that when you buy a Kindle book you cannot lend, sell, or give it away. If you purchase an interesting book for your Kindle and your wife wants to read it, she'll have to buy her own copy or borrow your entire Kindle.

    Seems to me that this severely reduces the value of eBooks, so they should really cost about 1/3 - 1/2 of the paperback price to make up for it.

    Not true. You can, in fact, lend, sell or give your Kindle away. Amazon will in fact help you by removing your info from the device and wiping it from remote. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000FI73MA/ref=/ref=cm_cd_f_pb_un

    Yeah, I noticed that! I wonder if it's the same FX crew...
