So you didn't RTFA? What Mizaguchi wants to do is make the Lumines Live! downloads more like the music downloads system. You can buy the whole game or album if you want to, but most people like to pick out individual skins or songs.
MR. PRESIDENT: No man thinks more highly than I do of the patriotism, as well as abilities, of the very worthy gentlemen who have just addressed the House. But different men often see the same subject in different lights; and, therefore, I hope it will not be thought disrespectful to those gentlemen if, entertaining as I do, opinions of a character very opposite to theirs, I shall speak forth my sentiments freely, and without reserve. This is no time for ceremony. The question before the House is one of awful moment to this country. For my own part, I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery; and in proportion to the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of the debate. It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfil the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offence, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the majesty of heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings.
Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it.
I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided; and that is the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judging of the future but by the past. And judging by the past, I wish to know what there has been in the conduct of the British ministry for the last ten years, to justify those hopes with which gentlemen have been pleased to solace themselves, and the House? Is it that insidious smile with which our petition has been lately received? Trust it not, sir; it will prove a snare to your feet. Suffer not yourselves to be betrayed with a kiss. Ask yourselves how this gracious reception of our petition comports with these war-like preparations which cover our waters and darken our land. Are fleets and armies necessary to a work of love and reconciliation? Have we shown ourselves so unwilling to be reconciled, that force must be called in to win back our love? Let us not deceive ourselves, sir. These are the implements of war and subjugation; the last arguments to which kings resort. I ask, gentlemen, sir, what means this martial array, if its purpose be not to force us to submission? Can gentlemen assign any other possible motive for it? Has Great Britain any enemy, in this quarter of the world, to call for all this accumulation of navies and armies? No, sir, she has none. They are meant for us; they can be meant for no other. They are sent over to bind and rivet upon us those chains which the British ministry have been so long forging. And what have we to oppose to them? Shall we try argument? Sir, we have been trying that for the last ten years. Have we anything new to offer upon the subject? Nothing. We have held the subject up in every light of which it is capable; but it has been all in vain. Shall we resort to entreaty and humble supplication? What terms shall we find which have not been already exhausted? Let us not, I beseech you, sir, deceive ourselves. Sir, we have done everything that could be done, to avert the storm which is now coming on. We have petitioned; we have remonstrated; we have supplicated; we have prostrated ourselves before the throne, and have implored its interposition to arrest the tyrannical hands of the ministry and Parliament. Our petitions have been slighted; our remonstrances have produced additional violence and insult; our supplications have been disregarded; and we have been spurned, with contempt, from the foot of t
I plug a USB mass storage device into a friend's WinBox. It doesn' "just work". Not only that, the way everything is set up it's next to impossible to figure out WHY it doesn't "just work".
Additionally there are more then just a handful of multiple disc GameCube games. A full half the GCN games I own have 2 discs to them, and yes it is a royal pain to switch them. Additionally, many GCN games get away with only having one disc by not having any (or minimal) voice acting, or by removing the voice acting for French, Spanish, or other languages (as is seen in many Ubisoft games).
I spend hours upon hours of time on the computer, more time gaming, and do most of my homework in the span of 10 minutes right before I go to bed... and yet somehow my marks are still fantastic. I'm talking high 90s as an average here.
It's called TGS, where the bulk of all the Japanese gaming news for an entire year is released in the span of a few days. By now, you should also have figured out it's pronnounced Nintendot, 24 hour Nintendo bias, all day, everyday.
This wonderful country of Cananda. Could you point it out on a map for me, I've never heard of it.

Unfortionitely, until they start working with ATI's proprietary drivers, roughly half of all computer users (myself included) won't care about AIXGL or XGL since they won't be able to run them.
Do you not understand the point he's trying to make? IBM is manufacturing the CPUs for 360, Wii, and PS3, thereby making a killing irregardless of who "wins".

When I search for "colbert" on youtube, I still get 4558 results. Daily Show still yields 6046.
Perhaps the better article to check would be Console Wars?

Still better then Apple's application names. iCant stand their names.
So in other words this could be complete crap, and yet Zonk posts "Wii Will Have an Updatable Linux OS"? Hm...

Actually, Substance on PS2 is on a dual-layered in all regions, and many of the copies in North America came with The Document of Metal Gear Solid 2, an interactive documentary for the game.

Depending on how "old" your taste in music is, you could always borrow CDs from a library and rip those. ;)
Now all you're really making PS3 sound like a bargain: I'd pay $500 just for Alba to give me a blowjob.

Or, you know, use Linux, BSD, Mac OS X, or... hell I'd even use OS/2 before I'd use Windows again.
Metal Gear Solid. Kicks the shit out of anything I've ever seen on the Sopranos.
Not in all areas.
"This version brings user-mode homebrew to v2.0-v2.6 PSPs, without the need for Grand Theft Auto. Now, almost all the software that worked with GTA can now be used without it.
And GTA Exploit was never illegal.

Hm, well I can't wait to see this on PSP and Xbox them!
Obviously, liquid cooling is SOOOOOOOO 2005.
Because it's expensive, obviously.

Nothing like seeing tenticle rape in 1080p.

Unless IBM happens to be using blue lasers in their new supercomputer, it has absolutely nothing to do with PS3's launch numbers.
