Mine broke after 5 months. 3 red lights.. This was before they extended the warranty. Luckily I had the warranty from Best Buy and I now have a Wii and a DS..
Personally, I like both types of RPG. And I'd say you play a role in both types. Just in an "Eastern RPG", it's more like playing a role in the way you play a role while reading a book. You just transport yourself into that character on the screen.
I put together a new computer for this game.. Meant for it to cost around a grand, but it ended up costing over 2300... But hey, for the first time in my life I have a high end computer that is quiet
But I'm looking foward to the "Radiant A.I." That was my only complaint with Morrowind... The dumb NPCs..
I would like to see the viewpoint start to feel more natural. It's been the same static, look where you shoot, from the beginning. It's pretty stiff feeling.
Doesn't part of the problem come from the fact that true intelligence is based on a life time of learning and experience?? Every time someone is faced with a decision, they subconsciously compare the situation to previous experiences to help make the correct choice.. With game A.I., the programmers are sort of trying to cram a life time of experience into so many lines of code.. Seems an exercise in futility to me.
This is ridiculous.. If developers have to endure flak and possible lawsuits over mods to their games, how long will it be before they go to great lengths to prevent mods completely?? One of the greatest traits of PC gaming is under attack.
I hope everyone realizes we are just being pushed and prodded, and checked for resistance.. First make these things optional and tell us how great they are. Then require them on cars and criminals and explain why they are necessary.. What's next?? Fit them on children to prevent kidnapping??? Wait too easily circumvented. Improve the reception and implant them.. Then why ever remove them??? Yeah, I know I got my tin foil hat on tight, but I've hated these things since their inception. Their purpose was obvious from the get go, and while they are supposedly passive now, that is obviously going to change. Cars and criminals will have to upload their data to someone after all.. We will all be so much easier to control when "they" know where we are...

I too found a couple Wii's on the shelf at target last week.. Have never seen a PS3 in stock here in Sacramento..
Last Friday, I walked into Target at noon and saw two sitting on the shelf. I picked one up. ;)

Well, Microsoft decided to make it a big marketing point.. So now we all think it's very important.
I'm not sure I quite understand this.. PC games have been high res for many years. They don't seem to require multiple DVD-9s...
I believe it was the otherway around. Gamestop bought EB.

It does kinda seem like something the game administrators should have some control over, doesn't it?
So he was cheating... In a video game..... And got arrested??? I didn't realize the game was that serious...

Anyone ever notice how the "Market Analysists" who predict the launching price of new consoles are *never* right??? Ever..

You know, if you're not sure about a link, you can always "copy shortcut" and past it in a text editor... It'll tell you the true link..
